    Mr. Young,

    Although I agree that Obama’s laughter, his teleprompter and him removing his jacket are no big deal and that the likes of Limbaugh and Hannity are repulsive I must say, Obama is on the wrong track. No nation in the history of the world has been able to spend their way out of a financial crisis. Nor have there been more reversals in campaign promises in such a short period of time after election. Obama, as presidents before him continues to trample our Constitution in ways that our beloved Country resembles Europe more than what our founding fathers could have ever imagined. I would ask you to look at all of what is going on, not just the right or left comments, look at the future of this Country and then comment on Obama and his performance to date.

    Thank you.

    A not very funny and far from convincing article. Poking fun at non-issues like this is a red herring, distracting from the reality that the alternative media provides a perspective missing from other news sources.

    Yes, talk show hosts go too far at times like any media outlet, but it was conservative talk radio that paid attention to important election issues that the mainstream media all but ignored. Hannity was talking about Jeremiah Wright for over a year before the subject was picked up, and William Ayers got very little coverage in the liberal press as well.

    For something sinister, look to the complete lack of objectivity in most of our Obama adoring news coverage…

    Cheers,
    Andy

    Steve: unfortunately,like Limbaugh,Sean Hannity you don’t grasp reality. Your article April 3,2009 is sick. A President who for the past 8 years grasped reality. Are you kidding? An economy destroyed, a war that shoudn’t have happened. We didn’t learn a dam thing from Veitnam. I would like to debate you, Hannity,and Limbaugh together. This new President was left with a total mess. If he did nothing for the next four years it wuold me more than Bush did for the past eight years. In the past two months Obama has done more to begin the mending process with Europe than the other “clown” would ever thought of. Bush spent the last eight years pushing globalization. That really worked, now you can’t find a dam thing made in the USA. You probably don’t do anything that requires labor. The next time you walk into Lowe’s, Home Depot,or WalMart try to find power equipment,building tools or anything made in the USA. Forget it. Obama could go fishing for the next four years and would accomplish more. How long did it take for you to become this ignorant.

    Ed,
    Look up “satire” and/or “snark” in the dictionary. You might feel a wee bit better.
