Hey, you think GMA will feature some Horse and Buggy dealers who can't make ends meet due to them there new fangled things called Cars?

How about all those people who did repetitive jobs that were placed by machines and computers?

Every advance in modern technology brings with it a period where a generations skills become outdated and essentially useless for the masses.

As great as the boom of the 90s seemed, it also brought with it greater productivity and a need for less people.

Liberals, however, see a job as a right.  If a person doesn't have a job it must be because someone denied them a job.  Also, they think, are act like they think, skills are learned once and kept for a lifetime of usefulness.

In today's market, you have to constantly learn new skills or find ways to make your current skill set useful to employers.

This is a pattern for the MSM during election cycles.  Back in 1991, they played up the recession.  Nothing but bad news.  You were made to believe that almost everyone in the country had either lost their jobs or were in imminent danger of losing their jobs.

Rest assured, any time there is a divided government wherein one party controls the legislative branch and the other the executive branch, the MSM will  emphasize that the Republicans are to blame for a dismal economy and the Democrats are responsible for a healthy economy.  In fact, the economy's ups and downs will occur no matter what party is in control.

If Bill Clinton were President now and the Republicans controlled Congress, who do you think the MSM would blame?  And they would be sure to emphasize the (R) next to the names.

Living in Southern Ontario, I'd have to say Niagara Falls Ontario is about the slimiest town in the country. Lousy food, hustlers, government casinos addicted to people with the gambling disease. cheap entertainment....kinda gross. The reason it is popular is Canada got the Tourist side of the falls. The falls are spectacular from the Cdn viewing points. Too bad about what grew around them. On another note, shouldn't reasonably priced housing be celebrated? 

Happens just about every 4 years. Except in the '90s. They skipped it then for some reason.

You want change? Give me a dollar.

You know, I've just about had it.  I'm an engineer for an OEM in the auto industry, so trust me, I know about economic uncertainty.  But all this doom and gloom perpetuated by this train wreck - excuse me, trek - throughout the hinterlands is just too much. 

Of all the millions of people they pass by on their journey, what, nobody's doing okay?  Nobody's making ends meet or better?  Nobody's got a spare dollar in their wallet?  Puh-leeze.

For example, FTA - On Tuesday, an unidentified husband in New York told Roberts, "My mother called and asked when we are going to visit? We've had to put a visit aside. It's only a five hour drive. But just taking the time off from work and the fuel money, we just had to postpone it."

First of all, taking time off is called "vacation", dude.  Look into it.  You're actually being paid while you're not working.  Secondly, doing a quick calculation on a five-hour road trip, presuming a 70mph speed limit and a gas-guzzling fuel efficiency of 15mpg, I figure it takes less than $200 for the round trip (at $4/gal).  And yes, I understand that $200 is still a lot of money for some folks to spend, but is it the end of the world?  Let me go out on a limb here and say, NO.  If you really want the kids to see grandma, I've got to believe that you can find a way to work the gas money into the budget, even if you have to spread it over a few months. 

Seems like the only things missing from this great adventure are huge dust clouds swirling across the plains, soup kitchen lines stretching around the corner of the buildings, and photos of hobo's being knocked upside the head as they try to hitch a ride on ABC's train to better times. 

Is there absolutely no integrity left in the news media today?  At long last, is there no integrity, sir?

how is that the President's fault? States make laws about gambling, not the feds. Petition Albany and fix the problem, or create some other new industries in Niagara. The heavy manufacturing ain't coming back. I know it's not easy but it's better than complaining and watching your town go downhill.

Way to go NBC in featuring 2 Democrat states who are depressed, because they are ruled by Democrats.

Maybe next time you can go to Illinois and blame Tony Rezko infilitrating Islamocommunist money into the Obama campaign which is corrupt as the Daley machine.

and how about visiting Delaware where Beau Biden tossed an innocent Larry Sinclair into prison and then threatened him with life for a misdemeanor as he was telling the world about his rendevous with bi sexual Barack, and Joe got a Vice Presidential slot for that quid pro quo.

Lot of despair in Democrat run states, go get me ABC.

Rush Limbaugh has said it best:

1. "Federal spending has skyrocketed through the roof to the point now that we're over $3 trillion federal budget every year.  And yet the Democrats don't change the tone.  The country's still horrible.  Everybody's just a paycheck away from losing their jobs and becoming homeless.  Everybody is just miserable. It's a soup line!  There is no prosperity, there is no opportunity for prosperity, there is no hope -- unless we elect Democrats."

2. "They (liberals) see no America exceptionalism.  They want everybody to believe that everybody else in this country is barely making it, barely hanging on, and that the only solution to this is more and more of what has created the poverty circumstances that the Democrats decry. Because it is liberalism that creates poverty, promotes poverty, extends poverty, and spreads it, and they want eight more years of power to keep doing it."

3. "In every major Democrat campaign this happens.  Soup Line America! This is how they want you to see your country, on the verge of collapse, where indigent citizens are clamoring for a savior to fix their lives, but what would be amazing -- and we never have to worry about them doing this -- it would not be possible because they don't see things this way."

4. "Why, look at these poor people suffering needlessly simply because of eight years of Republican rule.  How can you look at these people and be proud of your country?  That's why we Democrats share with you the fact that we are not proud of our country.  How can you look at these people and hear their stories and be proud of it. How can you look at these people and even feed yourself tonight? How can you look at these people and even let your kids go to college tomorrow without feeling overwhelming guilt."

The liberal media continues to sacrifice ethics and morals for the greater cause: The Election of a Democrat to the Presidency of the United States.

This should be in the new fall line-up for all MSM news.....
