MYTHOLOGY
I have been adding up the erroneous memes perpetrated by the MSM (main stream media, you know, the one that Palin keeps pissing about).
And how wrong they are. Here is a small recap fresh out of the oven.
Shocker: Media narrative about health reform is wrong again
It turns out that the GOoPers idea of flushing the Affordable Care Act is totally unpopular. The thing is that while a plurality of people are not satisfied with the Act, that is because a lot of them are Democrats, Independents and just plain folks who don't think it went far enough and are still pissed about it.
Asked if it should be eliminated, the answer was an emphatic "no"! People want it fixed and built into a more comprehensive plan.
This just adds to the misapprehensions promoted by a lazy media. There is the one about Obama's sinking popularity. No it is not. And the preference for Republicans in the generic ballot. No there is none.
See the charts.
I liked Obama's line today. The new Republican "Pledge" is nothing but an "echo of a disastrous decade".
The other day I saw one of the promoters of the pledge asked if he could name one thing he would cut from the budget. He couldn't name anything specifically. Or even generally. They are a bankrupt concern.
