Huffington post headline, George w Obama. They never miss an opportunity to slam the president

[still_one]

and even though the criticism is valid, the garbage hypocritical media in this country seem to forget that they helped provide the misinformation and fear that gave us the patriot act

So how about an editorial calling for abolishing the patriot act?

Other then progressives, or the few progressive comments, most of the talking points that will be blathered by the msm will be attacking the administration, instead of actually reviewing history. We do not want to do that though because then people would realize that their really are very few journalists in this country today

2. You are wise, and I should not either. She may be a shrewd business person, but she is a true

Republican through and through, with her good buddy Issa

3. Meh. The criticism is valid, as you say.

Bush is no longer president, thank everything. This is on Obama now. It is his call. He deserves the focus and the criticism. All those who attempt to justify this because the worst president in history started it are hypocritical apologists or fascists. It is the weakest, lamest argument to blame bush for Obama's policies.

4. I have watched Chris Hayes and Rachel Maddow shit bricks over the phone records.

Not a single one of them mentioned that ALL the records were are combinations of phone numbers and that if the government wants to wiretap on any of them, proof of potential criminal or terrorist activity HAS to be proven and a court order granted before the government can wiretap any number in the database. It is fucking sad that commentators have such a lopsided point of view that they won't mention facts that are most likely to blow their arguments sky high.

8. There is no question the corporate media has an agenda, and one of them is to fully inform the

Public

5. "...and even though the criticism is valid..." makes it sound like truth not a slam nt

9. My point was a frustration with the msm how the outrage is now, but was mostly absent during the

Bush years.

And the first response is well that was past we are dealing with now. The problem is they did not deal with it in the past, and because of that the abuse continues

6. The media is a joke. Its been that way for a long time now. It's all SENSATIONALISM! & SCANDAL!

7. Do Bushy things, be accused of being Bushy.

One follows the other.

[woo me with science]

10. "...the criticism is valid..."

Well, there you have it.
