Title: So honestly... What the shit fox?
Post by: Pterrydactyl on October 13, 2013, 03:39:01 pm
I NEVER watch fox news, but I've been catching up on Daily show lately.  And can someone please confirm, is Fox ACTUALLY trying to blame the GOP caused shutdown on OBAMA?

Congress is constitutionally assigned the right to decide on funding.  The government is shut down because the two houses of Congress are in disagreement and deadlock.  This is not the fault of any one party, though you can be damn sure that each party is going to demonize the other over it.

The ridiculous shutdowns of public parks and the like is a separate matter of concern, and is about the Obama administration betting on the GOP being blamed more than the Dems, and so he is just trying literally to hurt the American people and transfer blame to the GOP.

It's all just politics as usual, not one of these bloody assholes in the federal government, on either side, gives a flying fuck about you or me, and they'll all step on us to maintain their power and keep their pockets lined.

You can't take a walk in the woods without government holding your hand, they want you to believe.  Yet the NSA is still fully operational.  Imagine that, only things that benefit people are getting shut down, while billions are continuing to be spent on programs that spy on Americans.

But remember, don't draw the obvious connections, or else you're just a "radical conspiracy theorist"

Actually there is agreement.  The problem, is that Boehner won't bring it to a vote, because it will pass.

And if he does so, the tea partiers will bend him over for it. He's doing this shit to save his own job.

Maybe, but the GOP might end up FUCKED by this, and then WHO WILL PROTECT MY RIGHTS TO CARRY WHATEVER GUN I WANT?

Because, that's basically all GOP is good for now...  I miss Reagan...

anything the daily show says should be taken with a grain of salt. they twist things just like everyone else. I would not trust them to accurately represent the views of any political or media group they disagree with, or social issues in general. They present one side, usually whichever perspective is the most entertaining to their target audience.

because they brand themselves as political satire rather than news, they sidestep some of the scrutiny they dish out on everyone else. yet they benefit from people looking to them for information on current issues. They explicitly claim no responsibility for people taking what they say seriously -- even though their success is obviously based in part on people agreeing with their underlying assertions.

Those guns aren't American.

That's because Reagan saw the BIG PICTURE.  Yes, his guns might not be american, but that's because he's stimulating the global economy WHILE being awesome and saving Germany from communism.

Then explain the velociraptor. Hmm? A Mongolian dinosaur! I heard they have freedom of religion there. Not very Christian if you ask me.
