Bobert's nasty, mean spirited, bigoted rant against Fox has no resemblance to reality.

[But Sawz, what's new about that?]

Why? all of the frenzy and firing went on before Fox aired anything. And how did fox alter a video that was already on the net?

Bobert's favorite left wing pinko rag does not even mention Fox News's involvement. He watches Maddow, Olberman, Mr Ed and Matthews and repeats whatever they say. It's easier than studying all the facts and making an independent decision.

Also being able to separate facts from propaganda helps.

He will also try to blame it on the Tea Party and any other straw man logical fallacy he can dream up.

Washington Post
Sunday, July 25, 2010

Remember that old adage that the secretary of agriculture should be seen but not heard? (You know that one, right?

Tom Vilsack broke that rule this week with his dismissal of, doubling down on dismissal of, apology to and attempted rehiring of (it reads like the 12 stages of grief) a midlevel Department of Agriculture employee named Shirley Sherrod.

The story -- in short -- goes like this. On Monday, conservative commentator Andrew Breitbart posted on his Web site a video featuring Sherrod, the department's director of rural development in Georgia, making comments about her reluctance to aid a white farmer because of his race.

Sherrod, who is black, was quickly asked to step aside by Vilsack, who said the episode complicated his attempts to "turn the page on the sordid civil rights record at USDA."

But facts are pesky things. As the story evolved, it became clear that Sherrod's comments were taken badly out of context -- she was using the tale of her initial hesitation to help the farmer decades ago, long before she joined the USDA, to make a broader point about race and class -- and that Vilsack (and just about everyone else in Washington) had condemned Sherrod wrongly.

By midweek, the White House was in full mea culpa mode, with press secretary Robert Gibbs (last week's Worst Week winner) telling reporters that "a disservice was done, an apology was owed." Adding to the surreal nature of the saga: Sherrod was watching Gibbs's news conference live on CNN.

Following Gibbs's lead, Vilsack put himself up for a public flogging, acknowledging that he "could have and should have done a better job" and expressing "profound regret" to Sherrod, to whom he offered a new position with the USDA. (Sherrod has yet to say whether she will accept the gig, despite chatting with President Obama about it on Thursday.)

And, just when Vilsack had humbled himself as much as anyone thought he could, Obama decided to humble him some more. In an interview with ABC, Obama said Vilsack had "jumped the gun" in the Sherrod incident. "We have to take our time and think these issues through," the president admonished. Ouch.

Tom Vilsack, for trying to put out a fire that wasn't even lit, you got burned. And you had the Worst Week in Washington. Congrats, or something.

mg,

It's because between Fox and the Tea Party that if ya' don't repond very quickly the rest of the media jumps on it for fear of being labeled (by Fox) "liberal" (horrors) so what we have right now is an entire nation being held hostage by Fox un-news... I mean, all ya' have to do is look at the extremes that Fox has gone to to disrupt the current administartion an' it's really quite amazing that the extreme right which makes up about 20% of the population has joined forces with the super corporations (no, make that vice versa) and the two are running the agenda, or at least coming as close as they can...

What hasn't been made clear, is whether Shirley Sherrod had a political (exempt) appointment, or if hers was a regular Civil Service appointment. If it was a Civil Service job, it would have been almost impossible to fire or even demote Sherrod for the reasons stated. If it was an exempt appointment, Sherrod would have been serving at the pleasure of the Obama Administration, and could have been fired for any reason or no reason.
I gather that Sherrod had a long history of employment with the Department of Agriculture. I'm guessing that she may have had an exempt appointment to a political position, and would have had rights to retreat to her previous job.

What I don't get is why a secretary of anything would rush to get rid of a federal employee, and did not use extra caution in the case of a long-term minority employee. I don't understand why he didn't say privately we seem to have a problem here and ask for a collection of facts, review the speech himself or by a trusted deputy and if found to be problematic, ask for a review. It does not make sense..and her story of her father is truly tragic...and we need as many minorities in USDA as we can get and as many working in agriculture who really want to be doing that sort of work (as opposed to no other opportunities..and we need to redress some wrongs to African American farmers and probably others that she has pointed out. mg

Bobert,

The words I recall from Bush ( NOT the words that the NYT says he said, but the ones IN THE TRANSCRIPT) had the word "IF" in them, making the statement a conditional and thus could not be a lie.

Sorry, try again.

At least you can take comfort in the fact that Obama does not use conditionals- so it should be a lot easier to admit he should be impeached.

Like Bush's 17 words during the State of the Union speech, bruce, after the CIA had warned him repeatedly that they did not have evidence that Iraq had reconstituted a nuclear weapons program??? I mean, was that a "damned lie" or what??? I mean, even after Cheney had been to the CIA over and over trying to get the intellegence folks to go along with the mad-dash stuff... I mean, after George Tennent had personally told Bush before the Oct. 11th speech in Cincinatti that they didn't have evidence... I mean, exactly what was that, bruce, ol' buddy??? I mean, Bush lied because he was Hell bent on invading Iraq and wasn't too interested in the truth about much of anything other than he wanted the war and, by golly, he was gonna have his war... Lie or damned lie...

(But, Bobert... According to bb if you agreed with the lie then it was merely a "mistake" when Bush used those 17 words (11 words, whatever...) See, Bobert, you are much worse than Bush... You can't remember if it was 17 words or 11 words... It might have been 14 words... That makes you a liar!!!)

No, seein' as I have forgotten if it was 17, 11 or anywhere in bewteen I see it as a mistake... Bush couldn't possibly have used forgetfullness during the speech seein' as so many people were involved in writing it so...

...I'm gonna keep this one in the "damned lie" category...

Guest, TIA,

If you do not realize that the "lies" listed are debatable points ( some have validity, some are mis-statements of what Beck said), then there is no point in having any discussion with you.

I ask again: If I find more than 6 lies in what Obama has stated in 20910, will you treat him as Bush was treated, and demand HIS impeachment??? Your claim that Beck is all lies because of 6 documented ( and debatable ) ones gives me the standard of truth that YOU respect- So if Obama is less truthfull I expect you to admit he should be removed for all of our benefit.

Now you may begin a new conversation.

And since you did start a new one, Obama is not a "news" "reporter", so your new conversation is already comparing apples and oranges - wherever it goes next...

And the actual words that Beck has done that ANY here consider lies? I have not heard any specifics in the accusations of the Left.

I have listened to Obermann- and from the comments here have to believe that many here have NOT listened to Beck but only the warped rewording that the Left has presented of him.



I listen to ALL sources of information, in an effort to find out the WHOLE truth: I then weed out lies and unsupported claims as less valuable than facts and documented reality.

Seems that you are exposing the same "free market" policies that Reagan brought to the country, GfS... Well, they have been a miserable failure... You might not like regulations but without them we are definately going down the drain... This "idealogue" (I assume you mean Obama) is trying, at least, to get somethings fixed... Free markets brought us 17% of of GNP for health care... That alone is not a sustainable cost if the US wants to compete in the global economy...

The stimulis??? Pure Republican buillshit that it isn't working...Most non-flat-earth economists say that it has saved millions of jobs... How quickly we forget the just how close the US economy was to crashin' and burning' in the falll of '08 and winter of '09... The stimulis is what brought us back from the brink...

Yeah, their is way too much unemplyment and guess what??? We're going to have it for a long while... Even more and longer if the Repubs have their way... What the hell is cutting taxes gonna do??
Create more jobs??? That ain't gonna happen... The Fortune 500 companies are sitting on $1.8T right now and aren't hiring so giving them even more money won't do anything but drive the deficit up... This is common sense...

Yeah, ain't like the Dems have been able to put *real* fixes in place but they have taken the first steps... The Repubs??? We know what they will do... We all witnessed it but seems like lotta folks got blainders on when it comes to remembering just how screwed up the country was under their control...

So, yeah... It's easy to do the generic rant about what's wrong but givin' the reigns back over to the crooks that brought us this recession/depression ain't no answer at all... It's like using leeches for treating medical problems...

"Leftist Policies" ?

Jaysus. Now THERE'S yer problem. Them is all middle-of-the road policies, at worst.

That some folks define them as "leftist" brings us back to delusion & nonsense.

Even Greta van Sustern HAD to get plastic surgery, BEFORE her show aired!!!

All that being said, Fox news goes a little deeper than some of the others...BUT you still have to spit out some bones!

Look, What is the opposite of 'United we stand, divided we fall'??

Try 'Divide and conquer'...and that's exactly what is happening in this country...and its all a distraction to keep us from the real issues!
everybody is divided over the stupidest shit, and the propaganda machine just keeps cranking it out.
Sure we needed a financial reform...but we already had/have them...they just don't get enforced!...ie the anti-trust laws, and others, for starters. The Federal Reserve??...That is a private corporation printing our money...and lending it back to us at a stupid interest rate! Good going guys! What a fucking scam!...and coupled with that, the IRS, to make sure the debt on the interest gets paid for by us...ALL unconstitutional! Borders?..Same thing! The laws are there, but to further bullshit agendas, which are NOT designed for the benefit of mankind, or this country, but for the elite, to first make a profit, and then go for the power. Money is NOT their object, but POWER is...meanwhile, we watch our liberty and freedoms go down the drain.....WHILE WE BICKER! This last 'health care bill...What a fucking scam deluxe! Sure we needed that reformed too, because the insurance corporations(read: protection racketeers), got a bit out of control. Now the Federal government is swapping places with them, and the shit in that bill, BESIDES any concern for your 'health' is WAY out of control!..and if you don't think so, wait till it goes fully into effect!
Another thing, just as I posted before, about the so-called 'Republicans' heaping power onto themselves, then the 'Democrats' not repealing it, wait till the 'Republicans' get the power of this stupid shit that the Dems put in place! ..It just keeps getting worse and worse.
Its all a big charade!...and I'm ALMOST surprised that the general public, including a lot of us, don't see it!
We have a supreme law in this land, and EVERY time some jack-ass politician, working on the behalf of a greed driven corporate special interest, smoke screens around it, WE GET FUCKED.......and the 'NEWS' media CORPORATIONS are every bit a part of it!!!!
Now, as a 'remedy' and backlash, we got some ideologue radical trying to change the very form of government we have, going after corporations, and trying to replace them with an every bit corrupt, gigantic big brother government!..that has us so far in debt, that the average citizen had no part of creating, that we are two shakes from being made their slaves, to pay it off!.....DID YOU GET ANY 'STIMULUS' BENEFITS, OR MONEY??? Who did?? Where is it??? Is the unemployment down??? Do you think your taxes are going down??...even after the bullshit promises, during the campaign?
This is the biggest Machiavellian scam going down, I think, in the history of modern man, and you want to argue about what 'news' personality, is lying more than the other???? Here, I'll solve it for you....THEY ALL ARE!...or they wouldn't be on the Federally licensed air waives!
By the way, who are the biggest sponsors of the 'News' peak(hours)? Ok, just watch and count them yourselves...drug companies for big 'pharma'!..They even invent diseases to peddle their 'remedies' for. Next biggest is financial corporations....and after watching the 'NEWS' you think you NEED them both! I'd rather die broke and naturally, and live a better life!!..than to buy into that crap!...but then, that's how we live, in Sanity Land!.....
...and I have hardly even begun to list the absolute bullshit crap that we've been sold, under the guise of patriotism or 'civil rights', that had NOTHING to do with either!!!!!!

Most Sincerely,
GfS

P.S. Stick to playing, and composing music...research has clearly shown, that it activates the more of the brain MORE than any other activity on the earth...including sex!

Here, just for good measure:

this one

and this one:

lyric lyrics lyrics!

"Fox's blond cast, all look identical!..I can't tell one from the other..."

                   They've even got a blond lady doctor who looks like a movie star.

"What leftist policies do you support..."
The environment, which explains my position on immigration...
I don't like church and religion
A woman's right to choose
I did support healthcare, but didn't like what they finally came up with
I think the banking regulation they passed is better than nothing, though I don't understand leaving Fannie and Freddie out of it
I don't think the Bush tax cuts should every have been passed, and they should be allowed to expire.
I'm glad they extended unemployment benefits -- to name a few.

You all are actually debating what 'newscaster/commentator' is more accurate?????????

If they were independent, that would be something, but these are guys reading filtered scripted news from corporate...you know, the same corporate who has their vested interest in what you are told...as much as BP! These are not journalists, investigative reporters or investigative anythings, Many of them are actors whose only gig was reporting...some started out as weathermen. Kieth Olbermann, was a sportscaster, who rose to fame smashing Clinton during the Monica Lewinski debacle. He was filling in for another reporter...and I'll say, he was good at it.
Their job is to keep you engaged in the bullshit....and if it wasn't for bad news, or 'news' they can't whip up controversy about, the sponsors wouldn't be having viewers to peddle their crap remedies, for the neurotic crap their feeding you, and they'd be out of a job!..or replaced by another bottle blond clone. Jeez, Fox's blond cast, all look identical!..I can't tell one from the other...any of the networks always have their token minority member as well!..All of them!
The days of Edward R. Murrow are far over!
Now the debate is over your favorite news PERSONALITY???.....LOL!

So how'd this turn out? Did they find the racist who fired her?

Is Fox news running white house domestic policy?

Have Hobamanoids learned to differentiate their asses from their heads yet?
