Dear Andrea Seabrook
Dear Andrea Seabrook,
When you air John Boehner saying “Obama’s economic policies have not helped the country; they have hurt the country” and then say in your own authoritative voice “Republicans worry that the payroll tax cut increases the deficit without stimulating the economy,” don’t you think you have an obligation to point out that both premises are blatantly, provably false? I am disgusted with the Democratic party, but the plain fact is that they are at least trying to base their policies on reality, not on a world of fantasy supported by Republican talking points and stenographic reporting.
At least you pointed out that Republicans’ stated top priority is to beat Obama politically. Although you might also have mentioned that this contradicts their previous statements about their top priority being to help the economy.
Yours,
- Alex
