Barbara's Daily BuzzFlash Minute for June 25, 2009

BARBARA'S DAILY BUZZFLASH MINUTE

"BASH (voice-over): In the roaring health care debate, this is a Republican mantra.
SEN. JON KYL (R-AZ), MINORITY WHIP: The government-run insurance company would displace 119 million happily insured Americans.
SEN. MITCH MCCONNELL (R-KY), MINORITY LEADER: But 119 million Americans could lose the private coverage they have." Just have to wonder how many Repuglicans in Congress would be willing to trade their government-run health insurance for private coverage!  We don't see a waiting line!  This is the very reason why Repuglicans are becoming irrelevant, they don't give a damn about the American people or the human condition!

"BORGER: ... you have to also understand that the Republicans don't have a corner on this kind of a story. We did have Eliot Spitzer. We did have John Edwards in the Democratic Party. So, folks may say a pox on all your houses.
BLITZER: Yes. And people can't forget Bill Clinton when he was president of the United States, as well."
It's not the affair you idiots, it's the hypocrisy---Neither Eliot Spitzer, nor John Edwards, nor even Bill Clinton ever pretended to be holier than thou, never once did they condemn the actions in others that they themselves were doing, never once did they make indignant self righteous speeches denouncing the foibles of the human condition!  I repeat it's the REPUGLICAN HYPOCRISY, stupid!  It's the hypocrisy which is unacceptable!

"South Carolina's governor once cited 'moral legitimacy' when he was a congressman voting for President Bill Clinton's impeachment ... Now Mark Sanford has taken a swan dive from the moral high ground. By admitting to an extramarital affair with a woman in Argentina ..."  It just goes to show ya, "what goes around comes around" and sometimes comes around to bite you in the rear!  That's why "judgment" should be left to a higher authority!

There was a time when these guys posing as journalists were considered learned and wise, but now it's beginning to look as though they're as stupid as those politicians they so blindly support!  There's no way possible to make "Guess Who Wishes Bush Was Back" out of "In a conversation the other day with a White House official, I heard something I'd never expected from an employee of Barack Obama's. 'I wish,' he said, 'George Bush would speak up a little more.'"  But then this was David Broder who seems to have developed the same problems with intellect that his boy Bush has.  If Broder thinks we'll believe this gobbledegook, "...a series of polls last week showed that when Americans think about Obama, they are becoming increasingly critical." then Broder has definitely entered the dementia stage of senility!

Fed contractor, cell phone maker sold spy system to Iran (Washington Times). "Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN), a joint venture between the Finnish cell-phone giant Nokia and German powerhouse Siemens, delivered what is known as a monitoring center to Irantelecom, Iran's state-owned telephone company." When the most important result is bottom line profits, the human element is not a consideration!  Today's world evolves around greed and money, something happened to compassion and caring along the way, it became irrelevant!

Today's media, both aired and print content, is controlled. American media can be compared to Iranian media, in that the reports of events are regulated by the media and is by far as biased as the controllers.  All the more reason to depend on the Internet and BuzzFlash for the truth!
