CBC doing a documentary about Barack and Mitt, if anyone needs to wretch

rugatika · #1 10-21-2012, 09:12 PM

I've only watched about 10 mins so far, and they are painting Mitt as some sort of a scheming businessman who plotted his way into a presidential run, and Obama as a hero, who stumbled into the presidency for the good of the world. Obama, as a great unifier...one of the most divisive presidents ever...what a joke.

I don't want to watch, but it's like a bad train wreck.

There's something perverted about watching my money being spent on propaganda that represents all that is evil in this world.

According to the CBC, it was the Tea Party that FORCED Obama to abandon his bipartisan hopes. The Tea Party polarized America, not Obama.

I'm always glad when I miss any documentary that is produced by the CBC.

As most are aware, the media is slanted. As many are aware, they are slanted to the left. As some of us are aware, the C.B.C. is one of the most left leaning media of all.

Don't understand how CBC has any critics as I doubt any self respecting righty would lower themselves to watch that channel. I don't like something. I use the remote.

Might have something to do with the Billion dollars they soak the taxpayers for every year, to spread lies about how great socialism is.

Don't let me get in the way of your outrage or anything, just thought other people might want to know that you were totally out to lunch. Maybe if you polish your jump to a completely wrong conclusion skills you can get a radio show of your own like Rutherford.

I like the song, posted it on facebook for all my liberal friends...I wish there was a I hate Romney song too for my Con friends.

If you want to see what a heartless, brainless capitalist Romney is and what he would do to America, simply look at the state he governed, Massachusetts....

ooops, don't look there. Fairly liberal state with their own medical care plan for the poor, not a right to work state, never tried to take on the unions or outlaw abortion. Have the Republicans really taken a close look at this guy???? he's a closet Dem!! LOL

The passionate eye didn't produce the piece, nobody at CBC did. They air documentaries from all over the world, this was a Frontline report they got from PBS.

You complained that somebody spent your money on producing evil propaganda, you were wrong.

I stand humbly corrected. The CBC wasted my money AIRING and paying for an elsewhere produced piece of evil propaganda. Well done midgetwaiter.

Turning on CBC for political insight or truth makes as much sense as reading L. Ron Hubbard to gain insight or truth into astrophysics.

Same can be said for Fox...

Now now. At least Ron makes SOME sense. Even if it is NONSENSE, at least its path can be followed.

O'blabber is the WORST president ever.
America was ready for a black president. Too bad this ftard got in. Now it will take 3 generations before another person of colour gets a chance.

I was going to add up his flaws but it would take too long, so instead, I will list his good points

#1 He looks good exiting the White House.

Ok, Good points have been covered.

Unfortunately, the C.B.C. is representative of or at least caters to the majority of Canadians. When will people wake up and realize or admit that Canada is a socialist state. It is not something we struggle with, it is something that is.

I had some time to watch this over the weekend.

Seriously WTF were you smoking when you watched this? The doc discussed the increasing polarization of the political process during this period but at no point did they level blame. They included several statements from people that were critical of Obama's approach to resolving these problems.

I can't understand how somebody could watch this and see what you claim to. I want to think that you're just too accustomed to watching Glenn Beck weeping on his blackboard and your perspective is all f'd up but it doesn't seem possible for it to go that far.

Yup, and Mitt Romney clearly won debate #3 as well.

Smokey · #20 10-29-2012, 01:37 PM

I did not think the documentary was all that evil. The one thing I though was that it did not talk much about Obama's faith. It spent a fair amount of time on Romneys faith, his mission, his time as a Pastor, church leadership and service. I don't know if this was because Obama went to that crazy pastors church for 20 years and they did not make much mention of it, but it made Obama in way look unreligious which I believe is distortion. Then again I did miss the end.

Bigrib · #21 10-29-2012, 04:24 PM

It's not Romnesia's fault he was born into wealth and privilege . I mean almost some of us would end up like him ... not caring about 47% of people . It's not his fault he wants to consolidate wealth into fewer and fewer hands . It's not his fault he supports shutting down forever manufacturing plants in the USA so they can be shipped to China where labor is cheaper and no environmental controls on pollution ... he can't help it .. money is his God , people come later .

and btw the USA is a socialist democracy just like Canada

Grain · #22 10-29-2012, 04:56 PM

I didn't watch it, so I will not comment on the doc, however I believe CBC and PBS trade some programming, ie not much money changing hands there.
On a related note, I was quite surprised that Romney won his parties nomination, as far as Repub's go he's a bit of a moderate. No friend of the NRA, his faith contradicts with the Bible belt, and his record in Mass. is hardly strong stuff. Perhaps the party thought a moderate was what it would take to win back the presidency. Obama, I personally think he folded on the pipeline deal to cow to his lefties, if it would have been a second term issue, it would have happened. Two weak leaders IMO, wish I could say I didn't have a horse in the race, but as we all know our economy is their economy... I'm not one of the fear mongers, whoever wins, life will carry on, promises will be broken, lies will be revealed, but no one will be thrown under the bus too far, politicians all realize that what goes around comes around.
