I was watching FOX News* the other day and saw the headline: "Pres. Obama Launches His Billion Dollar Reelection Bid." I appreciate the BIG BOLD graphics on FOX for those of us who don't see as well as we used to; I also appreciate the short headlines for those of us who don't like to think too much; and I appreciate the easy-on-the-eyes FOX girls. :p
"Pres. Obama Launches His Billion Dollar Reelection Bid" - what does that mean? Is that Obama's goal? Who is the campaign manager for such an obscenely mess? Do they have a web site for donations?
Hhmph! No good, high-falootin' fancy pants Democrats. George W. Bush had the decency to wait until May of the year before the election to launch his re-election bid.
Well, two 'political analysts' explained to Megyn Kelly that some anonymous 'conservative critics' have claimed Obama is, uh, launching a billion dollar bid, and,... well,... that's bad....
Hogwash, I say! This is America!! Money talks -- whining walks!!! If Obama raises a billion dollars, well, good for him....
I criticize Kelly for airing such a non-story with a dubious headline. What happened to her journalistic skills that got her that job?
* I still have a crush on Megyn Kelly -- tho I'm beginning to think that maybe her headline writers are not really 'fair and balanced.'
