I spent time reading responses to Yahoo News articles. One woman said Obama was a dictator. How could someone even think that? Dont we have an election coming up? But I can tell when those people are using illogical arguments. Then they an effective counter argument against logic, truth, and facts. They say it not true, its the "liberal media", spreading lies. So if any facts are used against thier world views, they should not listen. It's scary to me. I remember when, information and knowledge was to be prized, not something to be afraid of.

The best way to control people is: fear. So, the Republicans are using fear. As do the Dems. That's how politics works. Sadly.
And very well I might add.
But people are afraid. People are angry. Legitimately so. They're looking for someone to blame. They want answers. And the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Beck are providing those answers. They say the problems are: the Liberal elite and the Liberal media.
Yep! The Liberal Media. Ya know, like Fox News. We know that Rupert Murdoch is a very left wing guy with a fervent belief in democracy and cherishes values like concern for others and has always critiqued deregulation, free trade -- LOL (but even paleoconservatives like Alex Jones decry free trade) and the lack of democracy... ha!ha!
In the YT clip below Noam Chomsky states, "It has long been understood that unless people are controlled they are going to challenge power."
And the people who watch Fox News and listen to Rush Limbaugh are being harmed by the policies supported and embraced by Murdoch, of course, and Beck and Limbaugh. They embrace/support policies that are harmful to the vast majority of the population. So, Beck has to say: It's them, the Marxists, the Liberals etc. And downplay -- completely -- their own role in policies that are harmful to the actual people who watch Fox. (Again, Murdoch is pursuing his own interests. He's a multi-billionaire. He's an extreme nationalist with an utterly firm commitment to the corporate state. He doesn't commiserate with the people who actually watch Fox News -- ha!ha!)
Paraphrasing Adam Smith: the architects of policy protect their own interests, no matter how grievous the effect on others. Merchants and manufacturers, in Smith's day, corporations today, are going to pursue their own interests no matter how painful the effects on others are.
Take Murdoch. He's going to pursue his own interests. It doesn't make a difference to him if millions of jobs are offshored. It doesn't. (Capitalism is investing money to make money. That's it. Again, there's no concern for American workers or the natural environment or anything other than pursuing short-term gain.)
But it's extremely rational. Murdoch is a: rational wealth maximizer. That's part of the intellectual culture. All of this is extremely rational. Frightening, but rational. It's rational within a very specific framework or ideology. The ideology of: increasing wealth -- no matter the cost.
And the system we have [albeit, again, very rational]: one dollar, one vote. We vote with our dollars. That's understood. But there are people who don't participate. Namely the unborn. Meaning: what planet are we leaving to future generations. But being rational, well, that's none of our concern. Again, rational but scary.

Him and the rest of the network basically are talking out of turn, and with the world as it is nowadays, people are ending up fired. Case in point with the Jew Hater.

Sanchez is a jerk, but big egos are a prerequisite to what he was doing. His mistake was allowing his attitudes to show. However, he really didn't say anything that isn't common knowlege. Jews really are disproportionately representedin both in entertainment media & financials. I can't speak for Europe, but as far as I know, the US is the only place where it's taboo to talk about it or even mention it in public. There's historical reasons, related to religious canons, for their involvement in usury. Entertainment too. Hell, when the NBA first started up, most of the players were Jews.

I don't begrudge any of it. It's all just a holdover from the ancient systems of birthright. Social segregation has created a convoluted caste system that forces segregated groups into collective processes for mutual benefit & protection. Through experience, Jew's have merely gotten very methodical about it. They've been at it for a long time. This dates back to Byzantium, or maybe even ancient Egypt. They've learned to collectively deal with their minority status. Other minorityies are trying, but most haven't quite figured out the propaganda balance. Has everybody noticed the Chinese-American phenomenon of outrageously high scores on college exams & whatot? It's the same thing. A collective focus of an oppressed & segregated minority. There's no genetic disposition for any of this stuff, despite all the attitudinal bullshit about being "superior". Irish gangs organized & became an overwhelming force in police recruitment & other public service occupations. Police throughout the northeast are still disproportionately Irish. In the Southwest, something like 70% of public service labor is hispanics, although they're only around 20% to 30% of the population. On & on... We're slowly moving toward meritocracy, but it's going to take a while to break down the segregated caste mindset.

Black people have a lot invested in Obama because if he does bad(and he is) we all will be unfairly judged by that.

Hang tough there buddy. Impeachment hearings will start next July. His past is catching up with him.

Lt col Allen west has made much more cutting remarks about Obama than Palin has. And west has actually publically said he can't stand him and dislikes him......

Fukkin A !!!!!!

This cracka would vote for Allen West in a minute.

Nobama's a joke, always was, always will be.

I think that Palin started off with racism on her first national speech, when she referred to small town's being the "real America". This implies that others, particularly urban America, with its larger racial minorities, not being 'real' Americans. It subtle, but still has a racist undertones.

---

You ignant racist muthafukka. Are there no small towns in USA that are predominantly black?

Palin just ain't a city slickka........get over it.

If Obama's a joke, then what's serious? Sarah Palin? I take Obama being called a joke, more serious than me being called an "ignant racist muthafukka". What this means to me that there is nothing a Black person can do to get get respect in the US. NOTHING! Like the people on Yahoo calling for the extermination of of Muslims, 1/5 of the world's population, life of other people has no meaning. A world with only White people. Yeah, right. Take America back. Only there will be less of it than the past.

What a crapload of bullshit. What you're saying is that hard-working, intelligent people aren't hard-working, intelligent people but instead have gamed the "propaganda balance". Of all the intellectual bullshit nonsense you post on here, this one is the most laughable.

Anyone else notice that whenever a liberal talks about winners and losers he always frames it in the language of "Oppressed & segregated minorities"?

To liberals, there are rarely winners unless they are "oppressing and segregating" a loser. When are we going to get honest around here and be able to say that if any group of people, black, negro or sub-saharan african are unable to compete in civilizations worldwide, then that entire race should be allowed to die off and fall off the face of the globe? What's the point of coddling failure?

Oh yeah I forgot. To "level the playing field" lol
