The media! Yeah! That’s the ticket! Blame them - it’s their fault. I have frequently criticized the media for neglecting their responsibility in reporting the news, refusing to challenge the administration, and kowtowing to their corporate owners, but the state of the economy is hardly a fault of theirs. People are out of work and in deep financial trouble; the future doesn’t look promising — yet, according to Rove, all those problems wouldn’t exist <a href="http://www.batterylaptoppower.com/acer/aspire-1600.htm" rel="nofollow">acer aspire 1600 battery</a>,<a href="http://www.batterylaptoppower.com/acer/btp-44a3.htm" rel="nofollow">acer btp-44a3 battery</a> were it not that the media continues to report the financial woes across the nation.

They love it when the media pays some attention to them, but let a little trouble arise, and then blame it on the "liberal" media. Liberal and Conservative are two words that should be stricken from the English language, nobody knows the difference anymore. I am sick of it.

I think Hoover genuinely wanted to help right things by smaller government in the election of 1933, but F.D.R. knew that we must also fix our infrastructure for peace time. Now, the only thing we really have to fear now, is the war of economic fears that the Neo-cons are playing through the media. I don't think, bottom line, that even THEY are angling for a market collapse! Hoover blinded himself to the worlds economic decline after WWI, then it hit the U.S. in 1929.

I wouldn't want it to escape people's attention that this mess well and truly occurred <strong>ON HIS WATCH!</strong> Can't blame this on Clinton this time. If it's the media's fault, then you've failed to control the message getting out to the media. After all, their job is just to repeat, verbatim, what you hand them. Stenographers, you know.
