She [Nancy Reagan] was escorted out of the hall by Frederick J. Ryan Jr., chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library Foundation, and president and CEO of The Politico.

So the President and CEO of The Politico, Frederick Ryan, is also the Board Chairman for the Reagan Library. And that makes sense, because Ryan is a long-time, hard-core Reaganite. From a November 1987 Press Release:

Appointment of Frederick J. Ryan, Jr., as Assistant to the President

I suppose you would have better luck following Obama's helpful advice - why don't you try to make few phone calls then and see how you get anywhere ... don't shoot the messenger .. just hide your head from reality

I dont think that fits for me, considering you are the one getting you're news from and attempting to get us to buy into obvious propaganda sites.




Also, i expect the run around if i call anyone to find out anything.. If you have ever used a customer support service, called for directions or locations, called for estimates, damn near anything you make a phone call for you have a good chance of getting a run around.

yet you never seem to use that level of scrutiny for anything left leaning.

You should double check. I have said in the past i am not happy with the dems but i do see a lesser of evils and one group out to do more damage. I have said that a number of times.

Even though i have said i am not happy with the dems, i have never once claimed to be impartial, unbiased etc and i have never once attempted to tell someone for who or how they should vote like some here have. Do you have an issue with that being pointed out?

Also, if you care to look we have about 5-6 hard core repub posters around here, and on the left side not so many. I just even the score a bit and bring out facts when some people might try to ignore those facts.

I just think you would do requiring the same degree of honesty and consistency form those you agree with as those you disagree with. Or at least if not requiring it, verifying the degree to which honesty and consistency is not present on that side either.

I fail to see how being partisan makes this article invalid. The president at best basically said, don't worry, it isn't us, people are lying to you, just go ask.

The reality is good luck trying to get an answer.

I think i said what makes this article lack validity is its source.

I dont think i ever once said anything about if it did or did not happen, only that it comes from an obvious biased site which on a daily basies distorts facts to fit its lean. With that in mind i fail to see how it is worth my time.

Anoterh article on Obama tells farmer no need to worry about government over-regulation of agriculture



Really if you don't like the news then you doubt it's sources .. that makes a lot of sense if you're an ostrich.

It comes from an obvious biased site .. are you going to start calling out Gramps posts from Huffpo .. Media matters .. the raw story too'? of course not .. then STFU and stop being being so pious about how everyone else is biased but you, dang .. just about every other comment from you is the same. You know Huffpo would not write

There are many hard core dems that post on MV too .. so what of it .. gish -

I go look at Huffpos site to see if they even mentioned Obamas midwwest speech about the farmer .. and I see headlines .. Roves monsters with a a BIG picture of Rove, Frankenstein and Perry .. .hey that's some great hack journalism there isn't it.

What a joke. Of course I couldn't find this Obama enlightening the farmer story on Huffpo .. but a lot's of other slamming conservatives headlines and story's.

Res .. you should be thankful you have a few good friends on MV that will help broaden your scope and perspective of the biased media in which America seems to have so much of.

Frankenstein .. oh yeah ... good journalism there

No, i would say the majority of Americans more then sick of the bs propaganda news sites and slantedness of it. If thats the world you want to live in then go for it as normal. Just think of the world you helped to make so far though.

No, i dont plan on saying much to gramps because he is almost the lone dem poster. On the other side we have a number of people who troll post and spam this stuff all day. Also, i cant say i have said i was not biased one time, you said that about yourself and still say it. Which is another reason we have this issue. Dont go around like the centerline poster and everyone else is wrong and jaded when you do the same thing.

There are many hard core dems but how many of them spam post like you guys do? How many of them go around telling you who and how to vote? How many of them make every single thing here a propaganda game?

As for Huffington Post, yeah right dude. They are not even as bad as some places and have many, many storys that go both ways. For the other sides you listed i dont bother with them. And i dont care if gramps does because of the "team" bit going here anyway.

Oh, and i did a news wire search on your story before i ever commented on it. The only place you are going to find it is right wing trash sites. Wonder why?

And yeah, yeah the media really against the repubs *yawns* lol I will actualy agree that they dont give RP coverage but the whole thing about the media vs the right i call BS on!

And enlightning views one thing, but when you have 4 or so people here. All attempting to have the top posts in a day and all repub trolling (even if not intended) then y ou will have people being defensive. Its just nature.
