1anyhoo,its the end of the world as we know it and i feel fiiinne,lalalalala
I don't understand why it is neccessary for major networks to cover every Obama news conference in primetime. I understand it is a choice and I applaud Fox for declining. Address to the nation, yes, news conferences, no. Pandemic or no pandemic.
2Umm they should show it, I am sure more people are interested in what's going on in the world then trash tv.
3I'm sure you are correct. Then there are some of us who would rather watch trash tv than watch Obama blowhard for an hour. That is what CNN and the other news channels are for.
4#3 if they are interested they can tune into the numerous other channels that are airing it. It has always bugged the crap out of me that it has to be on every damn network. I am glad. I rather enjoy lie to me. And I know how things work when they say they'll reschedule shows. They never actually air them, or air them at a time when there is another show I watch. All Obama is gonna do is use this opportunity to push his agenda, rather then actually telling us like it is, he has to actively campaign in EVERY freakin speech(and yes I meant speech and not conference since he will be strictly reading off of his teleprompter) The way that he addressed the swine flu the other day had my jaw dropped to the floor. Why does he has to take an event where so many people are suffering and possibly dying and turn it into an opportunity to push people in the direction he wants them to go. He is a bully and is shamelessly using a possible pandemic for his gains. I'm saddened by that man, and even more sad that i voted for him.
