Subj : Good week To : ALL From : BOB KLAHN Date : Sun Jul 03 2011 18:51:40 SH> It's been a good week in politics. SH> 1. So uber weirdo Olbermann can call President Bush a SH> terrorist and a war criminal without penalty, but Mark SH> Halperin has to go because he said Obama acted like a dick SH> during a press conference? Is it any wonder that Faux SH> "news" beats the hell out of MSNBC? And this is what SH considers significant? He doesn't mention why it was said, what should have happened, or anything to give anyone an idea what's going on. SH> 2. Speaking of that, CNN airs a 40-year-old statement from SH> Roger Ailes that talked about the possibility of a 24-hour And nothing to give anyone an idea what it's all about. ... SH> 3. Cigar Willy says that he would like to have SH> grandchildren but that the matter is out of his control. SH> Really? And he considers this significant? SH> 4. On a more serious note, June was the deadliest month in SH> a year for our men at arms. Of course, with the departure SH> of President Bush, the MSM have lost interest in the body The MSM seems to be going to the right in trying to keep the troops in combat. ... SH> 5. One in four Americans don't know who we declared SH> independence from in 1776. I wonder if these people also SH> think that U.S. senators represent districts within states? After a generation of the right hacking away at American schools it's no wonder. Anyone notice, the repubican solution to the debt in Minnesota is to take $700 million from the schools, but not one bit of a tax increase on the uber-rich? Minnesota is already $1Billion down on school funding. Now $700M more? The republicans don't even blink at that. SH> 6. After refusing to meet with congresspeople over the SH> debt, Obama calls for bipartisan action on the debt. He is SH> not a serious man. It was the repubicans who walked out on the talks, when the democrats wanted to discuss the tax breaks on corporate jets. That is not serious. Why would Obama meet with anyone who sets preconditions that he gives all, and they give nothing?
