Just in case you have been totally avoiding the lame-stream media or living under a rock for the past week, the video above should illicit one of three reactions; jaw-dropping shock, blinding rage, or an overwhelming feeling to repent from your extreme right-wing beliefs.

It is not simply a misunderstanding as to what the tea parties of last week represented. It is the sheer magnitude of Garofalo's stupidity and the unbelievable fact that this moonbat is still relevant and allowed to spew her hate on television. This is a new low for MSNBC and for that matter General Electric, a point that was made clear during a shareholder's meeting for GE where microphones were shut off when irate stock holders voiced their frustrations about the left-leaning subsidiary.

Today, there is a poll out from the AP regarding PBHO's first 100 days. It states that more Americans believe that our country is heading in the right direction: 48% say we are on the right track, while 44% claim that we are on the wrong track. That looks like a major disparity to me and I would be interested to see the polling pool. How can the AP make the blanket statement that Americans are high on Obama and the direction of the United States? And what about the 8% that "aren't sure"? Are you kidding me? How can someone not be sure?

If one watches PMSNBC or DNCNN, they most assuredly love PBHO and what he is doing. Everything they report is rainbows and unicorns when it comes to Obama. On the other hand, one who watches FoxNews is more likely to see behind the curtain and understand that this imperial takeover by our federal government is profoundly un-American and will only lead to more citizens looking for hand-outs and increasing the Democrat voting base.

I am simply amazed at the disconnect between American citizens and our government. I am even more amazed at the lack of professional journalism. It is their duty to inform the public, yet they feel that it is more important to report on Bo, Michelle's fashion, or Barry's man-boobs.

At what point will Americans wake up and stop this march to socialism? I suppose that this is the cumulative effect of government-reliance instead of self-reliance, generations of coddling our youth instead of teaching that there are winners and losers, and the constant need to be entertained instead of self-reflection. So I say that the next time you are challenged by an uninformed American about why you are against this massive government takeover and out-of-control spending, fess up and tell them that it's because you hate black people.
