Ridiculous AP Spin on Obama Jobs Bill

The supposedly neutral Associated Press (AP) had a decidedly pro-Republican spin on President Obama's jobs bill. The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur explains.

That's why Ron Paul is being blocked - the system doesn't want any change.

The biggest problem with our political system, is politics.

Only thing missing -- the "how dare you, you Up_ _ _ (rhymes with bumpity) N _ _ _ _ _ (rhymes with bigger)

[stinke]

Damn...the AP is trying to tell us what things mean instead of just telling us what happened...

[LisaMurphy]

Notice also that Ms. Pace DOESN'T say "due to the Republican's poor opinion of the job creating prospects of Obama's bill the likeliness of Republican support seems uncertain."

Don't you see Cenk? The American media's problem is vapidity and & incompetence, not really partisan bias.

[DeIeted]

Amazing how they didn't say that to the Republicans during the last 2 and a half years.

[humper]

its not about the Repubs or Dems anymore, its about all of government working with and for the PEOPLE and not the highest bidder...

@cne08

you've been a real terror with your numerous posts, ever since you discovered that "copy" function on the right click of your mouse. good for you fella!

[SendMeTheRemote]

I get scared when Cenk says "HOW DARE YOU?!?"

[genie]

enough of this crap about the GOP not wanting to work with the President! What has changed from the Clinton era where both Parties did quite well working together to get a lot done, create many jobs?

the difference obviously is that Obowma is a rigid ideologue, will not move to the center where the majority of American voters are as did Clinton.

I agree with Cenk that the President should work the people to get things through but what makes Cenk believe Americans would buy far left shit?

[CHEESYhairyGASH]

i would say the press act as republican steganographers, rather than stenographers.

[biggydx]

Damn. I guess the pres will always and forever be disliked in general. Be it his base, the republicans, moderates, the media, Wall Street, Foreign Nations. Whew.

[User]

It sucks, but basically Obama has to work within the area that the Republicans give him. He had free reign in '09 and '10, but not right now.

[NanoHorizon]

Julie and Ben need a head examination.

[goozbaghali]

I just hope people organize and make changes. WE CAN'T RELY ON POLITICIANS. democracy isn't about voting. It's about activism.

[hamzadawud]

ROFL, I love how amped Cenk has been getting lately. Him imitating flustered Republicans is utterly hilarious, and not unlike something my friends and I would do. It's all so terribly true.

[NateDaGreat_]

I think im like among the youngest to be subbed to this channel....

[np]

write exactly what we want and we wont say that youve got a bias against us ....

[Capng]

GOP: Where are the jobs, Mr. President?

Obama: Well, here's a jobs bill and it's nakedly right-leaning.

Media: Why won't Obama co-operate with the GOP?

The rest of us: *head -> desk*

[prpunk]

punch first, play victim= republican strategy
