ANOTHER POINT THAT CONTRADICTS THE RIGHT BUT THE MEDIA (AND THE DEMS) TOO OFTEN FAIL TO EMPHASIZE

I actually heard some ill informed guy say the other day "we need Reagan right now to fix this mess" the really funny part is the guy was on 40 years old. So how could he know??

Indeed. The saddest aspect of this reality is not just Fox News getting away with misrepresenting and outright lying about the factual history of the current and recent administrations and their predecessors but the "mainstream media" not challenging the spokespeople for the right and Republicans when they do it on other news channels. It's despicable behavior for so-called journalists and unfortunately is so all pervasive that the Democrats and Centrists and leftists are going to need a coordinated effort to thwart it. Unlikely anytime soon.

I can't really think of any mainstream journalists that I respect. When I was growing up, it was considered to be an honorable profession. Those days are long gone.

I know. Walter Cronkite is dearly missed.

Though actually, with more thought, there are some journalists I do respect, like that guy Richard something on NBC who is always at the front or in the action in war zones, and some women reporters that do the same for NPR etc. And as far as anchor persons, Rachel Maddow seems the most honest to me, always copping to any mistakes etc. I wish she had her own show in prime time on some bigger network. Oh well.

Can any Lallysalley liberal state the the 1 or 2 policies that Obama spoke of in his "Reset" speech today, that will convince the American voters to return him to office.
