Coming from all the Sunday Propaganda shows...
It sound like the new GOP meme is that Obama is taking over the country with claims that the government owns over 50% of the economy.

They are using the bu$h bailouts of the banks and AIG plus Obama saving Chrysler and GM in addition to "Obama Care" to claim he is taking over the country.

Between Bachman, Graham and De-Mitt, it was truly comedy how they all have the same message.

1. Yep
I saw looney Bachman this morning. She's such a pompous ass.

2. Will the media fact check them? Or just take their word for it like they usually do?
These grandstanding bullshitters are really annoying me. The willingness of the media to let them pedal this stuff is making me ill.

4. That has not changed
The moderators of these forums pandered to the crazies all the way.

CBS - It was 2 wacko GOPers to one Dem.

3. So in other words the GOP still wants Great Depression Part 2
Because that's where we'd be if the government took the Hoover view and decided it wasn't going to intervene in these major problems created by these stupid, selfish, and greedy businesses.

6. If it means bringing an end to Obam's Presidency
They would destroy this country.

5. Charles Krauthammer was still milking the (debunked) Cantor story...
and wasn't called on it nearly as harshly as he should have been. The actual facts would have blown him so far out of the water the old turtle-lipped shill would have been dead by the time he got back to his little cesspool.

7. Krauthammer is never too concerned with the actual facts. Lies and Distortions are more his thing.

8. Alternatives
to the Sunday morning bobbleheads:

Sleep in, make a hearty breakfast and eat it, take a walk, meet up with friends, talk to people you live with, put good stuff in the Crock pot for dinner tonight, run the vacuum, do laundry, work a jigsaw puzzle, go for a bike ride, read a good book, call a long-distance relative......

Even good guests get talked over and interrupted.:banghead:

10. I don't think this is a winning idea for the GOP

When confronted with the facts by the moderators they more or less say "I don't care what the real facts are I FEEL it is a gov't takeover"

I realize voters are emotional but I don't even think they are that irrational.
