The Constitution Is A Liberal Document & The Founding Fathers Were LiberalsExclusive: Jon Stewart on 'Fox News Sunday' Jun. 19, 2011 - 24:11 - 'Daily Show' host talks politics, media bias in extended, unedited interview
If one person takes a stand that murder is wrong and another takes a stand that murder is right, just to present "the other side" of the argument... would you be suspicious of that person's motives? I would. Technically, this isn't a religious thing. All religions have rules such as no murder and no lying. Simply because you can argue for murder or for lying doesn't make it the right thing to do. Even if there are two sides to every argument, in some cases, such as with Fox News, the other side is being created in complete opposition to traditional human values of morality and truth AND consumers are allowed to consume this information without any warnings whatsoever.
As the reach of these tactics reach over 50% of the country, one has to wonder if this is an intentional war on the viewers who also happen to be US citizens and thus privy to certain rights (such as not having a Government that allows it's major "news" channels to betray it's citizens - betrayal is a personal form of "treason" but do it on a large scale and betrayal IS treason)
House Speaker John Boehner sat down with NBC’s Chuck Todd on “Meet the Press” yesterday, and the host asked a good question about the Republican leader’s failed predictions about the Affordable Care Act. Regrettably, the Speaker couldn’t respond with an equally good answer.
BOEHNER: Obamacare made it harder for employers to hire people. The economy expands and as a result, you are going to have more employees because businesses have to. But if you can ask any employer in America, and ask them whether Obamacare has made it harder for them to hire employees, they’ll tell you yes. Because it’s a fact.
Boehner might have a credible argument, if we abandoned the agreed upon meaning of “working.”
Look, I realize that health care policy has never been the Ohio Republican’s strong suit, and the Speaker isn’t a wonk deeply engaged in policy details. I can also appreciate why he’s a little embarrassed about making all kinds of ACA predictions, each of which turned out to be wrong. It’s just not realistic to think Boehner will fess up on national television to getting the entire fight over health care backwards.
There’s just no avoiding the fact, however, that Boehner’s comments on “Meet the Press” were woefully incorrect.
This is the result of choosing a side when no side should exist (i.e. creating opposition through lying for political reasons);
Six of One - Obamacare vs. The Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare" IS the Affordable Care Act)
So here the other side of the argument is the opposite of truth.
In other words what the GOP is doing is like saying the sun doesn't set, it stays at high noon at all times while the other side is arguing the the sun rises and sets as the data shows. Whats even more disturbing is that some people believe these outright lies. Yes, the GOP has an echo chamber that lies for them but still this qualifies as strange and unusual punishment to their followers and Fox News viewers ... who may be conservatives and would even have been traitors if this was 1776... BUT they are still American citizens who deserve to be told the truth officially, THEN if they choose to betray their country, let them... with normal treason laws as GOP has unofficially declared war on America as all the evidence proves;
Report: 295k jobs added in February - Jobs have been added at a blistering pace in February: The latest jobs report says 295,000 jobs were added to the economy last month, while unemployment dipped to 5.5 percent. Rep. Jim McDermott and Austan Goolsbee weigh in.
Highlights;
Lying to someone to make them make the wrong decisions is what a criminal does. Lying for ratings is what Fox News has admitted to doing. Treason is the opposite of loyalty. The GOP & it's media arm (Fox) are traitors to their viewers.
