Okay, so this isn't exactly a diary, more of a vent, but what the hell, we're all feeling pretty good today, so here goes.
Reporting on todays 100+ point rise in the stock market, Trish Regan is incredulous; she wants to know how the economy is going to keep improving (as suggested by a guest) when we have the federal deficit to worry about, especially since the health care reform law is going to be adding to that deficit. WTF! Did she not hear about the CBO mark-up showing that the law would REDUCE the deficit.
Honestly, how do these people get jobs on TV when they don't even know what's going on? Is it just personal bias on her part, knowing the facts but choosing to perpetuate Rethug talking points? It's unbelievable.
I emailed the ditz but she probably won't read it, or if she does, certainly won't care enough to make the necessary correction. Is it any wonder that people didn't sign on to this idea a long time ago what with all the disinformation put out by the Rethugs and the "liberal" media?
Okay, I've vented. I'm just one, ticked off Pittsburgher (and it doesn't have anything to do with Big Ben's alleged hoinky-doinky actions).
