I AM SICK, SICK, SICK of the news. I'm tempted to cancel the New York Times, turn off the incessant wack-a-doodle chatter of the talking heads on my tv screen, and watch internet porn instead of internet news. Here's a flash for all the journalists...OBAMA ISN'T PRESIDENT YET. This is why we address him as "President Elect". It means, now listen carefully...he's been elected but not taken office. Wow, that must be confusing. Read it again, if you got lost the first time. Why, why, why is he being criticized all day, every day, by the media? He's too left, he's too right, he's too centrist. He's supposed to be friends of the liberal left, but he's shifted to the right, but he's not right enough, he's too in the middle, but not in the middle enough. Jackie Mason can take it from here!
Can't we take a national collective deep breath? The race for the White House were some of the worst months or was it years of my life. Tempers flared, voices were raised to the "can shatter glass" level, and I feel lucky to have survived without challenging one of my friends to a duel. It's over, it's all over and yet no one's happy, not even the New York Times. Why don't they write about how good Obama looks in a suit? Or his choice of ties, which btw is excellent. Now I feel relaxed and the knots in my stomach have unclenched. Why has political speculation become gospel truth? The man is putting together a cabinet and staff, leave him alone. He can't do anything, not one freaking thing, not even have people over for milk and cookies at the White House , and yet if you read/listen to the news , he's practically a failed President. Whoa, that was fast....is it time for another election already?
I for one would like to start an all happy news channel. How about hearing there's a yummy bake sale in your neighborhood, or my yellow Lab Elliot learned to sit, or blue is the new black this winter? Stay tuned, you're going to like this channel....I promise.

I agree with you, the media knows how to do two things, either say good things or pretty much trash Obama... He is our "President Elect" however can someone tell me where GWB is? Is he sitting behind that desk twirling his fingers? Is he at his ranch playing with himself? Where the hell is he? What is he doing? I want Obama sitting on that chair, I WANT HIM NOW! Why can't we just fire Bush already? Get out you devil!
About your "Happy News Channel" I LIKE THAT IDEA!!!.. Let me start
The Mexican Peso today is at 13.55 pesos for a Dollar, great news for us, we can travel to Mexico with $100.00 Dlls. and get $1355.00 pesos, it's better than Euros.. Let's all go visit that beautiful country across our border, let's stay there till December 20th (inauguration day) then on the way back lets all tear down that new Berlin wall that W is building, then teach the INS how to fill out information and make the process faster that way our produce goes back to what it used to be... Then Lets get back home and have our new president do what needs to be done which basically is clean the crap that W and his mafia have made..
The other good news is that craigslist does work. I posted my washer and dryer last night and got it sold this morning. You might not give a damn about that but the good news is that Americans are spending money one way or another.
The other good news is that Hillary Clinton will be at the White House...
And the best news of all is that a little dog will have a home soon, now isn’t that just darling?
You're right! We should have baseball in the summer - football in the fall, basketball in the spring and politics every 4 years
In slow times we should push pins in the talking heads on tv and blow up the occasional newspaper building. The country would run itself we would live our lives, pay taxes, obey the law and absorb all the bullshit that politicians have to say to get elected every 4 years.
