Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Friday, June 26, 2009

President Obama's town hall meeting -- the one-hour ABC News special Primetime: Questions for the President: Prescription for America -- had the fewest viewers in the 10 p.m. hour (against NBC's The Philanthropist debut and a repeat of CSI: NY on CBS).

The staged White House informercial did hold its own against The Facts of Life and Welcome Back, Kotter reruns.

How bad is it when you take over a whole news division, get bold front page headlines from your fellow shills, yet can't beat The Philanthropist in ratings? The honeymoon with Barry isn't just over - the American people are flying to South America for some strange.

I don't really know if this is good news for those of us that oppose socialized medicine or not. Congress is quite skilled at passing legislation that no-one pays any attention to, but which carries enormous costs. (Stimulus package?)

I think the more news about the takeover of medicine by government the better.

People seem to want something done about health care.. the polls always indicate that.. but when you start actually explaining what that will mean (rationed health care, etc).. all of a sudden its not quite so popular.

I don't think there is a health care crisis. I say that as a small business owner with employees for whom I buy insurance. It's a huge cost, and the system needs some tweaking (like getting rid of the laws that prohibit small businesses from forming associations across state lines and self insuring).. but do I want the federal government taking it over? Heck no.

"The special drew fire from Republican leadership after refusing to allow an official opposition response, or even a paid ad. ABC also interviewed Obama on "Good Morning America" to help promote the special."


Hey Chuck good work on helping Obama/God with "TRANSPARENCY" we sure as hell would not want a response from pesky disinters who may have questions Obama/God can not or will not answer, Pravda would be proud of both you and ABC.

The special drew fire from Republican leadership after refusing to allow an official opposition response, or even a paid ad. ABC also interviewed Obama on "Good Morning America" to help promote the special.

Voila! the Administration's approach to the "debate" on healthcare - blatant exclusion of the other party. No wonder no one watched this shitfest.

Yes, but everyone who saw it said it was FANTASTIC!!!!

I'm waiting for it to come out on DVD. Can't wait!

In a related story the staged White House informercial also held its own against the white snow you see when the cable falls off the box, but it was a close second to watching PAINT DRY...

B.O. should have offered a free Sham-Wow's to the people who tuned in.



The two party system was bad enough now we have the one party system complete with their own network. You know watching paint dry really isn't all that bad compared to the cock worship by CHUCK...

B.O. should have offered a free Sham-Wow's

LOL.. NOW, that's good thinking! Them germans make good stuff you know.

I remember a few days ago when Brain Williams bowed to Obama after an interveiw in the BIG HOUSE, did Chuck try anything, you know maybe a quick feel or a pat on the ASS...

I'm waiting for it to come out on DVD. Can't wait!

To keep more in line with Obama's Health care program it's coming out on VHS and 8 TRACK...

LOL.. NOW, that's good thinking! Them germans make good stuff you know.

But if you back my Health care plan, and we can't do this all day, I'll throw in a Slap Chop and a Graty. - B.O.

They're hoping Teddy Kennedy checks out around the 4th as a distraction.

Actually Ted Kennedy is scheduled to give Biden a ride to the event, not sure why but they are taking the scenic route...

ABC's disappointment with black political figures' ratings has led them to postpone their new pilot show Malcolm X in the Middle.

#20 | Posted by cookfish - BWAAAAAAAAAAH!

thankfully, coffee cup empty.


"their new pilot show Malcolm X in the Middle."

#20 | Posted by cookfish

Sounds like one of those porno movies, and Malcum X is the middle...

DON'T be dissing jj that way!

No way dude JJ was much smarter than Barry, I mean would you marry a woman big enough to kick your ass...

They might have more success with this one...it's "G" rated too:

But you have to hurry, we can't do this all day...

Come on! You don't think one of these days B.O. is going to proclaim his Health Care Plan is DY-NO-MITE?

No I think it would be more like Sanford and Son "Come here you big Dummy(Biden) help me finish this bottle of ripple and lets get to work"...

True. Michelle could play the part of Aunt Esther.

Aunt Esther: Who you calling ugly, sucker?
Fred Sanford: I'm calling you ugly, I could push your face in some dough and make gorilla cookies.

#30 | Posted by wisgod

Gorilla cookies now that's funny how can we send a box to danni...

Fred Sanford: I'm calling you ugly, I could push your face in some dough and make gorilla cookies.

I could put some tracing paper over your head, and draw me a moose face! ...

Fred Sanford: Who is it?
Aunt Esther: It's Esther!
Fred Sanford: Esther who?
Aunt Esther: You know Esther who! Open this door fool!
Fred Sanford: I can't open the door!
Aunt Esther: Why not?
Fred Sanford: You too ugly!

Aunt Esther: Fred Sanford why is it every time I come over to your house you call me ugly? Fred Sanford: Because I'm not the type to lie. ...

The MSM and their almost unimaginably biased coverage of Obama will come back to haunt their collective asses. They've got about zero credibility at this point - this 'no-dissenting views allowed' infomercial on a major media outlet is further proof of it.

You lefties hate Fox News and the Limbaughs and Hannities of the world, but, without them, this president wouldn't go under any media scrutiny whatsoever. And if you are honest with yourselves you'll acknowledge that a complete lack of media scrutiny of POTUS is a bad thing for ALL of us.

I think people are starting to realize that its all a sham....

Nobody believes that the sky is falling anymore. Nothing good was ever done in a hurry, especially not by Obama and his Democrat run congress. People are begining to see right through them and they proved it by tuning them out during this broadcast.


...IT EVEN HAS THE STRENGTH TO WITHSTAND 12 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS!



sorry for yelling

wow... righties clean the screens of your computers...

you've masterbated on this thread all day.

Wow, Kliffy chimes in with that ol' Third World wisdom and wit, discounted 60% on the open market, of course. Go get the exiled one, he's a lot funnier. I think his name is Tossed. Live by the flag......

Nuh-unh! There was that one time when Bill Maher said Obama should stop being such a celebrity in between repeated reminders of how much we like him.

I'm truly amused by the right-wingers on here who believe that ratings are somehow the 'new election'.

Speaking of ratings, you clowns love to tout the ratings of FAUX News as being the highest (of the 24 hour stations that is) and then whining about 'Mainstream Media'. Which is it? Isn't FAUX News now considered to be the most 'Mainstream' of the MSM?

Why do I doubt the whining will cease.

Two words: corporate cocksucker.

Another two words: single payer.

The bombing of Hawaii?

Another ugly broad spewing mock fear and panic for no reason than politics.

anyone listening to C-SPAN right now?

300 page addendum added at 3 AM last night, Pelosi trying to push a vote right now. Dem party transparency in action...

crap, wrong thread.

Why do I doubt the whining will cease.


#43 | Posted by COMMONSENSE at 2009-06-26 05:46 PM

Because you, as an expert whiner yourself, know that whiners never cease!

Obama, tonight roll over and ask Brian W. for a better idea.

Someone should post the story of "Lucky Pierre," with the French cruise ship Captain, and the two English dowagers.

Captain: Punch line: "Ah, Lucky Pierre, always in the middle."

Why do I doubt the whining will cease.

Good stuff from the biggest douche-nozzle who routinely whines (cries) "Liberal Mainstream Media"

Maybe people are beginning to realize that 'Comrade NoBama' is really not the best thing since 'sliced bread'...
