w held one of his unprecidented news conferences this morning. There was so little interest that C Span 1 and 2 had better things to bring us(Paulson in front of Congress and something else depressing on C Span 2).
None of the majors carried it,bit I found the most coverage on PBS radio(thank God for them in so many ways).
Wow that’s funny! I watched him on CNN/Headline News and Fox and MSNBC and CNBC and NBC Washington and FBN and CBS digital 1 and ABC. I flipped through all the channels and got so p*ssed off that every major had him on the TV talking about energy, congress and how they are the real problem – which is TRUE!!!!
PBS?
Oh come on.
They spend our tax money and give us what?
Bill Moyers?
Or how about that guy garrison what’s his name, nothing since the second generation of Sesame Street and Ken Burn’s Civil War has shown the tax payer the return of the hard earned money that was dumped into public broadcasting and they have not done a thing to justify their existence in a long long time.
Look at the salaries of some of these people are making. Take for instance Bill Moyers, what does he make off of PBS? A couple million a year on a system that does not derive a dime off of advertising. Maybe it is time to shut them down.
Oh and speaking of Bill Moyers, he should be the last person who ever talks about a president and what Bush has done in office, didn’t he tell the FBI to spy on Goldwater's people during the election.
When asked point balnk about the rising gas prices ,his reponse was to drill the s*** out of eveything. When asked about suggesting Americans cut back on usage,he said something along the lines thet Americans are smart enough to know what to do.In other words,the President see's no use in suggesting to his flock that they may wish to turn down the air conditioning or cut back on travel,they can figure it out for themselves.
Well Tallcal, I would rather believe the professionals than the congress about drilling for oil. As I said before, they will not use a dime of my money drilling for oil so let them have at it. They want to make money, they do not want to waste tax payer’s money for things that that can’t do so what is the big deal. If they use public land, so what it may be better for the land to move things around and restore it back to where it was.
Oh yea the environment, that’s the big deal… right?
Well you have seen oil exploration in other parts of the world and the last time I checked we still maintain the cleanest of all when it comes down to spilling a drop of crude oil which by the way is a natural liquid and has been in the environment for like the past like million years.
But bring up home mortage failures,and he blames poor choices by dumb Americans thinking they could get something for nothing. Man,this guy,although lame duckish is more ways then one,seems even more confused then when he gasped in surprise at $4.00 per gallon gas.
Well you got it all wrong; the blame sits with the people who got the loans on property that had an inflated value and the lenders who speculated that the value will go up. DO you know this is illegal and it is handled through the oversight committees of congress? Did you also know that there are several Democratic senators and congressmen who have had special favors done for them to over look some of these operating practices and they by the way are on these banking committees. I say let them fall, prop up the dollar and let the sales begin.
DO I feel sorry for anyone who loses their house? Yes, I do and as a matter of fact I am trying to help someone not be put out on the street because they foreclosed on her home. They didn’t do it because she was missing payments but because of the talk of a bail out by congress – what a better way to make money, have congress buy the property for the full loan value plus 50% of the interest and you can still take the lose on it. BUT my feelings do not extend to the couple with the three kids who make $200k a year, live in a $500k house, and have two cars (SUVs) and credit card debt beyond what I owe in total debt. These are the people everyone seems to be focusing on, not the working people who are living day by day. THESE are the people who Obama has been targeting with his I got a plan for Change BS.
