I really get tired of those who work in Government saying "The Government gives or hands out etc." The Government IS the people! The money they hand out is FROM the working people of the nation, it is NOT their pocket! Unfortunately the people have very little say in what is done with THEIR $$!
In a nation like ours everyone should be fed and housed and clothed but NO they send billions (OUR $$) to even enemy nations before we care for our own.edit on 21-9-2012 by Char-Lee because: (no reason given)

Here we go again...all of you Romney fans need to wake up..
You folks...sometimes I think if all of you went into a room together, you could not produce the critical thinking capacity of a single brain.
Not everyone watching at home has a skull filled with sewer sludge and believes everything the MSM tells them...and BTW...Faux news and the rest of the MSM are nothing but OP-Eds and propaganda...when you finally get that stuck in the goo...maybe you'll figure something out

This is one of the best videos I have ever seen! A single dismantle of the already "astounding" fox news network. It baffles me how people are blindsided by this BS they spit out. And whats even more disheartening is that people choose to absorb this info that FAUX NEWS spits out without questioning their logic?!?!?!?!
I have noticed lately how people cannot even debate anymore. Its either right of left this way or that way....there's no common ground..its always an attack. Thank god for people like Jon who question these morons.
It sickens me to even have to listen to the clips from FOX. Thank god I stop watching TV or they may have me by the balls too.
We need to take money out of politics and remove FOX and the like from the media......
FOX news...brainwashing Americans one day at a time

When will you people realize that Jon Stewart isn't real? He's a character on television. He says exactly what Viacom pays him to say. Nothing more nothing less.
He isn't a groundbreaking journalist. He isn't "telling it like it is". He has an agenda just like everyone else on TV. He works for one of the largest media empires in the world. Yeah, he's kind of funny sometimes. But he isn't real! Please stop taking everything he says as gospel.
People just like that he is speaking their own thoughts and feelings

People like the fact that Fox News gives them a voice too, but you don't see liberals saying anything positive about that.

What makes you think that they are your thoughts?
You've been programmed and don't realize it.
How do I know...I know because they teach advertising and how to manipulate people into believing in a product or an actor.

I take "looking up to" as "respect for" which leaves you vunerable to manipulation by MSM or said actor John Stewart IMO.
Okay if you say so.
But I think you should really take an honest look at where your thoughts maybe coming from...or not if you so choose...just saying it can be a tricky thing that you might not really be aware of.

Eh. Jon Stewart provides some cathartic relief in the context of mainstream media. He points out inconsistencies in the media, but never delves too deep. But, hey, he's a comedian.

Again...whatever...you lash out at anyone that disagrees with the dieing Republican party....here's another clue for the mentally impaired...I don't support either one...but it's far easier and funnier to watch the Romneynauts get their panties in a wad when someone points out how stupid his campaign and the party have become.
