Are you alluding that a "cheap crystal balls from WalMart", is more accurate than White House press releases??
Your problem is that you seem to base most of your 'opinions' on bold face lies..and then personally attack those who don't buy into your bullshit, parroted or otherwise.

Truth is, you should have just stuck to music.

Now back to the issue at hand...

Songwronger's original post and topic of the thread was: "By the administration's own figures, allowing the federally-funded extended benefit program to expire will end cash assistance for 1.3 million people immediately after the holidays and impact an additional 3.6 million people in the first half of 2014.

With this cruel and callous act, Obama and the Democratic Party are prepared to join with the Republicans in condemning nearly 5 million people and their families to destitution. In prior recessions, emergency unemployment benefits, beyond the standard aid offered by the states, have never been terminated when unemployment remained at such high levels as those prevailing today....

Are we not fortunate to have such a caring leader? He kills with starvation, not a sword, so he is humane. And in his humanity he has already offered to aid us by cutting social security and Medicare:

Amid government shutdown, Obama signals cuts to Social Security, Medicare. "

Guess what???........HE IS CORRECT!!

To which, these are some of the replies that the idiot-lugs responded to him:

"Goofballupagus, Songwronger is totally biased against President Obama, and if he could find some arch-conservative fundamentalist website claiming that they had Scriptural proof that Obama is the Anti-Christ and that Armageddon is imminent, he would post THAT.

THAT IS NOT NEWS, that is someone's half-assed, biased opinion!

True, I have worked as a broadcast news editor and director. And I learned how to determine whether or not a supposed news source was biased or reliable. It's not that difficult for anyone with a functioning brain.

But anyone with as much as a nursery school education should be able to smell pure, unadulterated excrement when they encounter it.

Flunked out of nursery school, did you? That explains a lot about you!"

"I am not too sure what focus you use on the world Mr."WrongSong?"

However, all of the USA media are reporting an even greater extension of unemployment benefits.

Actually, if some of you weren't so governed by lies and deception, and then go on promoting more lies and deception, you'd think you'd be thanking Songwronger for telling you the truth accurately. After all, how can you know what the fuck is really going on when your idiot opinions are based on a long series of lies and deceptions???

Oh!...Now that you've been shown to have been clearly 'in error', (polite-speak for 'full of shit') let's resort to personal attacks, on the order of the 'so-called liberal' playbook of avoiding a discussion aiming to get to the truth....truth...you know?...truth??

Maybe someone should explain what that is.
