The lamestream media continues to baffle me in their ability to put lipstick on the bulldog, when it comes to reporting on Obama. Their most recent revelation was about Obama—America’s new “Average Hussein“—getting a hamburger! Unfortunately, that is what the new media deem hard-hitting and newsworthy.
And when they do report actual news, as in this recent article in the AP, here is how they informed us: Layoffs slow to 539K in April; jobless rate rises. So there is good news; and an afterthought.
Perhaps to make my point a bit clearer, I will show you what the AP would have titled this story had Bush been president, instead of Obama: Layoffs continue downward spiral; unemployment reaches crisis levels.
Despite the fact that we lost 539,000 more jobs this week, the AP reports this as “not so bad” news under ObamaNation. I’m sort of getting used to getting the “optimistic” view of the news these days.
The other day the stock market rose seven (7) points, and it was reported as if we were in a new bull market. News anchors were jubilant that the market remained flat, and had not tanked—the norm in The Era of Brown Underwear.
