I can't wait to see how Gibbs and Obama are going to try and spin this one.

    that's not particularly encouraging. though i can sorta buy their explanation... i have no clue what district i'm in now. of course, if i was filling out a form for federal money i'd find that shit out before i sent it in...

    Biden addresed it on the daily show Tuesday. He basically said exactly what you did. Just some peeps filling out forms that didn't know their disricts. They are going through them to make sure it's all on the up and up.

    Better title for your thread “ Obama thinks Your Stupid”



    $19 million in spending -- and 15 jobs created? ...are you kidding? Did anyone get this money? Were jobs really created or is the whole thing a scam? If they did get the money is that really all the jobs 19 million can create? Who got the money?
    There handing out this money to idiots that don’t even know how to fill out a form....I don’t buy it!!!

    Yeah I thought about using that title,but I didn't want to even give her the pleasure. Isn't sad how the people on here are more concerned about Fox news that more than likely made an honest mistake even though they did it twice. Fox news doesn't need to do that they got millions of viewers. Sounds more like an incompetent editor to me, but if Im wrong I will be the first to condemn them for doing so.
    On the other hand yes it is a fraud and it's sickening :x

    news flash, you ARE wrong. one episode is forgiveable but twice in one week is not just coincidence. you got manipulated by the network, plain as that. and any news organization should not be twisting news to fit its agenda or the angenda of the lunatic fringe of the gop.

    I didn't even see the clip so how was I manipulated ? Like I said if it was intentional then shame on them for doing so. Maybe it was an honest mistake,and the reason why I say that is because Americans are not dumb only the ones that watch Fox according to some people so I just don't think that they would think that they could get away with doing that. Call me naive or whatever it is you want,but I think that sometimes it's better to be a little naive than to think that you know every thing

    yeah, you are naive. americans, by and large, ARE dumb. not just foxnews watchers, all of them. that is why the news networks know they can get away with things like that.

    Sorry to break it to you, but a large percentage of the entire world's population are lacking in education and common sense. The U.S. is far ahead of most countries. What the masses may sometimes lack in being informed and educated is only magnified because of our prominence on the world stage and the fact that our media takes stories and runs with them, and there is a LOT more censorship elsewhere.

    like the fighters resisting US occupation in Iraq must be uneducated, yeah.


    they don't know they are terrorists. we should set up a school.



    US media is probably more influenced by the state than any almost any other country. its part of the structure of the system. you don't get to be on tv unless you play by the rules....being a corporate tool or gov't spokesperson is almost as prerequisite for the job.


    US media is a tool of the state, to be used however it sees fit.





    if Obama wants to start a war with Iran.....Fox news will be right behind him, as will every other fucking channel on tv.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    I'm sure perfect and aerial are just as worried about all the no bid contracts for BILLIONS of dollars the previous administration dished out. If you don't believe me, look at all the posts they did back then on it...

    ledvedderman ......
    I am not left or right....I am for recognizing right and wrong......I am totally against no bid contracts nationally and here in my hometown......I just recently noticed this site so I have very little history here......why are you people here so assuming...what is it that makes you think you know me?........I guess you have nothing with merit to post so you just choose to make shit up!

    WTF man ? now you're going to start making shit up about me ? I have never said a damn thing about No bid contracts on this site and if I did I sure as hell would never support such a thing.

    just like you erased that hateful post about her the other day?? that was one of the most ignorant things i have ever read. she is a very fair poster, and you are constantly baiting her on this forum. i see it several times a week.

    don't think that people do not notice things like that. you have deleted feral posts like that one several times....

    by the way, its really mature to air private dirty laundry in public like this.... i guess nobody ever taught you that....but i digress...

    but back to the thread, yeah how many times does fox have to fuck up before people will realize that it is not a mistake but by design??

    search the threads, we had major discussions about those before. we would have valued your input, but most likely would have towed the party line and said that the no bid contracts were necessary to defend our freedom...

    it was nice enough. just a polite request to stop with the baiting. you've already got me banned once. i deleted it because i thought it might end up on here posted by you. the irony eh? if you want to continue this conversation, send me a pm. no one wants to read about this. it's very childish.
