Monday Night's News 2/9/09
2/10/09
Okay... last night’s logging was screwed up by computer failures and an iPod stopwatch that went berserk. So this will be more general than usual. Everybody was about Obama selling his stimulus plan. He was in Elkhart Indiana where there’s 15% unemployment. Unlike Bush gatherings, the crowd at his town meeting was unscreened. There was at least one hostile question which the President handled nicely.
But consider ABC. They put A Rod at the top of the broadcast rather than the stimulus plan. Then they reported the Pew Study that said 51% of Americans favored the stimulus plan and 34% were against it. Charlie put it this way: “…only a slight majority supports the stimulus. One third says it’s a bad idea.” It reminds me of that two man race where the loser was reported to have come in second while the winner was next to the last. Then to cap it off they showed Obama hitting his head getting into the Marine One helicopter.
ABC did have an excellent Martha Raddatz piece on Afghanistan, part of the Where Things Stand occasional series. They somehow did a poll over there and found 83% of Afghanis don’t like the US. Everyone is worried about security and blames US and NATO for the increase in violence.
Pilot Sully was back on all three nets. Katie reprised some of her Sunday 60 Minutes clips. ABC reintroduced the crew to the first responders on the ferry boats. NBC let the co-pilot talk first.
Horrible fires in Australia.. Car bomb in Mosul. Bankers still meeting in Las Vegas. So it goes.
Very good.

Andrea Mitchell needs to go away - preferably to Siberia. She is so bias, it really is awful.

The tan guy - Bohner, Senator from Missippi - who is this guy and why does he thinks he has so much say? And what purpose does it serve for the country to object constantly to what Obama wants. Some one should tell him that it was the likes of him that got us into this situation and we don't care what he thinks or wants.

Am I insensitive to say - enough with Sully... jeez... great job - but my gosh, if you're so humble get off the TV!!! I'm guessing US Airways makes him do it...

Good morning. Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.

I remember Obama's visit to Elkhart like it was yesterday. I'm from the area, so my parents were actually able to attend, it's amazing that the town is still in terrible shape, it's going to take a lot to get out of this hole.

This just goes to show Americas priorities, it lies to much on entertainment. Why would you put a rode before a very important political debate about stimulus?

I hope Obama will take note of the pathetic condition of Elkhart , and will take some much needed actions, as for Sully, its time he got of the TV screens, we are bored.

While this subject can be very touchy for most people, my opinion is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do appreciate that youve added relevant and intelligent commentary here though. Thank you!

I'm one who demands a lot from people. I'm not afraid to look at alternative ways in city government. That's what I've done in my two years and will continue to do in the next four.
