"Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people." -H.L. Mencken, The Baltimore Sun (1880-1956)

35 comments:

Bill Villa said...: "All successful newspapers are ceaselessly querulous and bellicose. They never defend anyone or anything if they can help it; if the job is forced on them, they tackle it by denouncing someone or something else." -H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956); Wed Nov 03, 08:20:00 AM 2010
Angie Villa said...: "People everywhere confuse what they read in newspapers with news." -A. J. Liebling (1904 - 1963); Wed Nov 03, 08:23:00 AM 2010
Bill Villa said...: "I do not take a single newspaper, nor read one a month, and I feel myself infinitely the happier for it." -Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826); Wed Nov 03, 08:27:00 AM 2010
Angie Villa said...: "Advertisements... contain the only truths to be relied on in a newspaper." -Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826), Letter to Nathaniel Macon, January 12, 1819; Wed Nov 03, 08:29:00 AM 2010
Bill Villa said...: "Editor: a person employed by a newspaper, whose business it is to separate the wheat from the chaff, and to see that the chaff is printed." -Elbert Hubbard (1856 - 1915); Wed Nov 03, 08:46:00 AM 2010

Bill Villa said...: Pandering to the right wing is the MC's business survival model ... ditto the rest of the US media ... which is why "Team GOP" cleaned Dems clocks nationwide. That and cuz Dems are "wusses," as Gov. Rendell told Rachel last night. As if we didn't already know that.

President Obama's record of achievement is stunning, especially fighting against the grain of the party of "no." He has accomplished 70% of what he promised as a candidate. But the Dems have done a dismally lousy job of taking credit for it, while the Fox/Rush-dominated media has transformed all of Obama's statesman accomplishments into impeachable offenses. And now they're "taking their country back" from the darkie. Only in America.; Wed Nov 03, 09:31:00 AM 2010
Bill Villa said...: The Case for Obama; Wed Nov 03, 09:32:00 AM 2010
Bill Villa said...: [Excerpt]

This president has delivered more sweeping, progressive change in 20 months than the previous two Democratic administrations did in 12 years. "When you look at what will last in history," historian Doris Kearns Goodwin tells Rolling Stone, "Obama has more notches on the presidential belt."

In fact, when the history of this administration is written, Obama's opening act is likely to be judged as more impressive than any president's — Democrat or Republican — since the mid-1960s. "If you're looking at the first-two-year legislative record," says Ornstein, "you really don't have any rivals since Lyndon Johnson — and that includes Ronald Reagan."; Wed Nov 03, 09:32:00 AM 2010
Angie Villa said...: It pays to stand up for something. Progressives need to do a better job at controlling the narrative and standing up for their values and beliefs.; Wed Nov 03, 09:48:00 AM 2010
Bill Villa said...: In the meantime, go ahead and "take your country back" and then shove it up your ass cuz it's going to shit anyway for the next 2 years.; Wed Nov 03, 10:02:00 AM 2010
Angie Villa said...: Edmund Burke said, " All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing"; Wed Nov 03, 10:34:00 AM 2010
"Wally" (good writing is re-writing) said...: Touché!!!!

Gotta love your view that the US media is right wing. It is. For honesty, you handle the truth beter than anyone I've ever read religiously (and yes, obsessively/compulsively too, just saying!); Wed Nov 03, 11:24:00 AM 2010
Angie Villa said...: Ditto ... ;D; Wed Nov 03, 11:25:00 AM 2010
"Wally" (good writing is re-writing) said...: I am compulsive. Watching you is like watching a graceful, defiant bullfighter vanquishing any and all who cross you (bad idea) and your path...(Martin, Corbett, Kranzley, blogger after blogger)...happens in slow motion, but keeps happening and you can't take your eyes off it. It's horrible and fascinating all at the same time.

I do also get a kick out of the fact that they can't handle your dissent at all. Watching you mock (and pulverize) them is thoroughly enjoyable.; Wed Nov 03, 02:36:00 PM 2010
Bill Villa said...: I couldn't agree w/ you more. Merci again.; Wed Nov 03, 02:38:00 PM 2010
Angie Villa said...: I second that ... ;D; Wed Nov 03, 05:20:00 PM 2010

Absolutely. Look at their hard copy front page today which I glimpsed while at the bank. Of all the race outcomes they could have led with...which one do they pick? "Toomey Triumphs." b/c Toomey is the farthest right of any of the candidate races. Wouldn't the Corbett victory as Governor have been more news logical?; Wed Nov 03, 05:27:00 PM 2010
Bill Villa said...: Yeah, I believe so.

But if you wanna rile up the right,
and piss off the left (for the enjoyment of the riled up right) ...

"Toomey Triumphs"; Wed Nov 03, 06:18:00 PM 2010
Bill Villa said...: Edmund Burke said, " All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing."

People who do nothing against evil aren't good people.; Wed Nov 03, 08:01:00 PM 2010
Bill Villa said...: Good read on yesterday's election (sent to me by Mrs. Dottie) by Bob Cesca ...; Wed Nov 03, 08:39:00 PM 2010
Bill Villa said...: I'm looking forward to the media maybe eventually noticing the amazing story that happened in California yesterday, namely Jerry Brown beating Meg Whitman and her campaign bag of $140 million dollars to become California's oldest governor, 28 years after he finished his second term as California's youngest governor. How cool is this?; Wed Nov 03, 09:13:00 PM 2010
Not Ray O'Connell said...: You were missed at City Council last night.; Thu Nov 04, 08:17:00 AM 2010
Bill Villa said...: I thought it was tonight.; Thu Nov 04, 08:18:00 AM 2010
Concerned Citizen said...: Villas, FYI, City Council "man" Mike Schlossberg is a scofflaw, hope he wasn't cell phoning too.; Thu Nov 04, 09:07:00 AM 2010
Monkey Mambo said...: Oh sure, so Mike "Giggles" Schlossberg wants to rule on the Mayor's budget but he flouts the law and ignores a vehicular responsibility the REST OF US must comply w/ . He must think he's a "special exemption" or something. Happy to see the APD nail his ass and not let him go like they do w/ road-weaving and hedge (hiccup) side-swiping Jim Martin.; Thu Nov 04, 09:18:00 AM 2010
Concerned Citizen said...: Villas, here's more recklessness and "special exemptions" from our City Council, Julio Guridy ignoring a red light. Thankfully he didn't kill anybody.; Thu Nov 04, 09:33:00 AM 2010
Bill Villa said...: Wow ...; Thu Nov 04, 09:46:00 AM 2010
Concerned Citizen said...: Oh, you ain't seen nuthin' yet, check out the arrest record of Allentown City Council woman (for now) Jeanette Eichenwald ...

* Speeding in SCHOOL ZONE, 21 MPH OVER!

* Speeding PRIOR

* Blowing Past STOP Sign; Thu Nov 04, 09:47:00 AM 2010

A-Town voter said...: Well said.; Thu Nov 04, 10:14:00 AM 2010
The City Official said...: Those fines for shamefully reckless "driver" Jeanette Eichenwald seem laughably low.

Only $151.00 (?) for careening through a SCHOOL ZONE 21 MPH OVER, just a year after being clocked (and again, wrist-slapped, only $152?) doing 72 in a 55?

Jeanette must have connections ...; Thu Nov 04, 10:25:00 AM 2010
Concerned Citizen said...: Villas, here's Allentown City Council "man" (for now) Peter G. Schweyer also dangerously demonstrating his arrogant belief that he's more important than the rest of us ...; Thu Nov 04, 10:54:00 AM 2010
Concerned Citizen said...: Here's some "W" Mike Donovan criminal dirt, and don't forget, "Not Guilty" does not mean innocent.; Thu Nov 04, 10:59:00 AM 2010
Concerned Citizen said...: (almost forgot)

"Never Charged" doesn't mean innocent neither.; Thu Nov 04, 11:02:00 AM 2010
