I am sick and tired and mad as hell about the mass media screwing up every big story in the rush

to be the first with "anal-ysis". Being conclusions pulled posthaste out of their asses.

Damn that the story be accurate, the prime directive is to get your ugly mug in front of the camera and your hasty thoughts in print FIRST, because someone else will beat you to it......that the public is massively misled is merely media collateral damage.

How WRONG the mass media has got the CBO report, how firmly and convincingly they got it wrong, is now going to be a delicate walk back for them, because they are also a very prideful bunch.

Not to mention the right wing now clutching to the "there will still be 30 million people without healthcare in 10 years", so Obamacare is a trainwreck lie fails to take into account population growth of 3 million a year....so you do the math.

Idiots, all of them. Prideful, lusting for power and profit idiots that want to drag the whole nation down into their Idiot's Paradise.
