THE NEWS MEDIA ONCE AGAIN FAILS TO INFORM AMERICA AND ITS PEOPLE DURING TIMES OF DECISION MAKING.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY'S OBSTRUCTION IN CONGRESS IS WELL KNOWN BUT THE MEDIA FAILS IN ITS RESPONSE AND ACTUALLY ENABLES THE PARTY IN THEIR OBSTRUCTION BY NOT COUNTERING THE OBSTRUCTION WITH FACTS. A GOOD EXAMPLE IS THE PARTY'S PLEDGE TO OPPOSE RAISING OF THE GOVERNMENT'S DEBT CEILING AND TO ALLOW THE COUNTRY TO DEFAULT ON PAYING OFF ITS OBLIGATIONS THEY THEMSELVES VOTED FOR. THE GOP USES AND HIDES BEHIND THE EXCUSE STATEMENT THAT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION WANTS TO INCREASE SPENDING. THAT OF COURSE IS A SELF SERVING STATEMENT BY THE GOP WHICH THE MEDIA GIVES A LOT OF ATTENTION TO BUT NEVER POINTS OUT TO THE PUBLIC THAT IT IS THE REPUBLICAN PARTY THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CREATING MOST OF THE DEBT BY THE GOVERNMENT IN THE LAST 50 PLUS YEARS AND THAT IT STARTED BIG TIME WITH THE REAGAN ADMINISTRATION. THE MEDIA HAS ALSO FAILED TO POINT OUT THAT IT IS THE GOP THEMSELVES WHO ARE THE BIG SPENDERS AND OWN THE LARGEST PERCENTAGE INCREASE IN FEDERAL SPENDING FOR THE PAST 40 YEARS WHICH CONTINUED IN 2020 UNDER TRUMP WHEN FEDERAL SPENDING HIT A RECORD $6.5 TRILLION. DURING THE PAST 50 PLUS FISCAL YEARS THE NATIONAL DEBT INCREASED AS FOLLOWS ON EACH PRESIDENT'S TERM OR TERMS IN OFFICE. 1. RONALD REAGAN 8 FISCAL YEARS UP 186% 2. GEORGE W. BUSH 8 FISCAL YEARS UP 105% 3. NIXON-FORD 8 FISCAL YEARS UP 98% 4. BARRACK OBAMA 8 FISCAL YEARS UP 70% 5. GEORGE H.W. BUSH 4 FISCAL YEARS UP 54% 6. JIMMIE CARTER 4 FISCAL YEARS UP 43% 7. BILL CLINTON 8 FISCAL YEARS UP 31% 8. KENNEDY-JOHNSON 8 FISCAL YEARS UP 18% 9. DWIGHT EISENHOWER 8 FISCAL YEARS UP 6% 10. ROOSEVELT-TRUMAN UP 3% NOTE: TRUMP'S NUMBERS ARE NOT KNOWN YET BECAUSE HIS FOURTH FISCAL YEAR DOES NOT END TILL 9/30/21 BUT WE DO KNOW THAT WHEN THE NUMBER COMES IN IT WILL SHOW THAT THE NATIONAL DEBT INCREASED MORE THAN HALF OF WHAT IT DID ON PRESIDENT OBAMA'S WATCH AND TRUMP ONLY SERVED 4 YEARS. THE REPUBLICAN PARTY NEVER REFUSED TO RAISE THE DEBT CEILING WHEN THEIR PARTY CONTROLLED THE WHITE HOUSE AND WAS ADDING RECORD DEBT AND SPENDING TO THE GOVERNMENT'S FISCAL HOUSE. BUT DURING THE CLINTON PRESIDENCY REPUBLICAN NEWT GINGRICH THREATENED TO SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT OVER THE DEBT CEILING, THE GOP DID IT AGAIN DURING OBAMA'S PRESIDENCY AND NOW WITH MITCH MCCONNELL LEADING THE GOP THEY VOTED AGAINST RAISING THE DEBT CEILING AND PROCLAIMED THEIR PARTY WOULD WANT TO SEE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DEFAULT ON THE OBLIGATIONS THEIR PARTY HELPED TO CREATE. THE ONLY MEDIA SOURCE FOR THE PUBLIC ON HOW THE GOP ARE THE LARGEST SOURCE OF INCREASED FEDERAL SPENDING, OF INCREASES IN THE NATIONAL DEBT AND THE CREATION OF DEBT, HIGHER UNEMPLOYMENT, LOWEST IN JOB CREATION, WORST IN BALANCING THE FEDERAL BUDGET, WORST AT REDUCINT DEFICIT SPENDING AND WORST AT LOWERING UNEMPLOYMENT IS "POLITIDOSE" COMMENTARY OVER THE PAST 9 YEARS. CAN ANY ONE REMEMBER THE NEWS MEDIA EVER GIVING OUT THIS INFORMATION WHILE THE GOP WAS CLAIMING TO BE THE BEST AT EVERYTHING? THEY ARE TO BUSY ENABLING THE GOP AND ITS LIES OF PROPAGANDA. THE RECORD AND FACTS SPEAKS FOR THEMSELVES AS TO WHAT PARTY IS BEST AT GOVERNING AND ITS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY WITH OUT A DOUBT. THE NEWS MEDIA IS JUST IGNORANT OF THE FACTS BEAUSE THE GOP HAS MORE TO SAY FOR THEM TO COMMENT ON EVEN THOUGH THE GOP'S COMMENTS ARE LIES. NOTE; FOR MORE DETAIL CONCERNING FEDERAL SPENDING INCREASES BY THE GOP READ PAST COMMENTARY BY POLITIDOSE. THIS COMMENTARY WRITTEN BY JOE LORIO

The Noise Machine of Division: The GOP, The Conservative Media, The Main Street Media and The Internet.

THE NOISE MACHINE OF DIVISION ARE FLOODING THE AIR WAVES AND THE PUBLISHING WORLD WITH THEIR DIVISIVE AND MIS-LEADING REPORTS AND DESCRIPTIONS OF THE BIDEN ADMINISTRSATION'S AGENDA WITH A VENGENCE, ESPECIALLY THE PRESIDENT'S ENDING OF THE WAR IN AFGHANISTAN AND THE EVACUATION, AND HIS POLITICAL AGENDA NOW MOVING THROUGH CONGRESS. THEY STILL DO NOT LIKE THE FACT THAT THE U.S. EVACUATED THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS, AFGHANS AND ALLIES SUCCESSFULLY DESPITE THE CHAOTIC CONDITIONS BROUGHT ABOUT BY THE AFGHAN GOVERNMENT AND ITS MILITARY LOSS OF CONTROL AGAINST THE TALIBAN AND THE LACK OF A WILL TO DEFEND THEIR OWN COUNTRY. THE MEDIA STILL TRIES TO DESCRIBE THE END OF THE WAR A FAILURE WITH DIRE PREDICTIONS TO COME FOR THE U.S. THEY USE THE WORDS LIKE THE OPERATION WAS A DISGRACE. ONE GOP MEMBER OF CONGRESS PREDICTED THE TALIBAN WOULD TAKE SO MANY AMERICANS IN AFGHANISTAN HOSTAGE IT WOULD OVER SHADOW THE IRAN HOSTAGE TAKING SITUATION THAT TOOK PLACE IN THE 70'S. THE PRESIDENT'S LEGISLATIVE AGENDA UNDER CONSIDERATION NOW BY THE DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS ARE BEING DISCRIBED AS DEAD, IN-FIGHTING BETWEEM MEMBERS WILL DOOM THE LEGISLATION, CHAOIS, ETC, ETC, ETC. NO SOLUTIONS ON THE HORIZON, ITS BIDEN'S FAULT AND SO ON WITH OTHER NEGATIVE STATEMENTS DESIGNED TO HARM THE PRESIDENT. BUT THE FACTS TELL THE STORY OF A PARTY WHO HAS A VERY SLIM MAJORITY AND LEGISLATIVE MATTERS ARE NOT GOING TO RUN SMOOTHLY BECAUSE OF DIFFERENT OPINIONS. bUT IN THE END, THE pRESIDENT AND HIS PARTY WILL WORK OUT THE DIFFERENCE. wHAT COUNTS IS THE PRODUCT, NOT THE TIME IT TAKES TO ACT. THE NOISE MACHINES OF DIVISION WILL CONTINUE ITS FLOOD OF MIS-LEADING INFORMATION CONCERNINC THE SUBJECT MATTERS BECAUSE THAT IS ALL THEY HAVE LEFT. tHEY KNOW A GOOD LEGISLATIVE AGENDA WHEN THEY SEE ONE AND "BUILDING BACK BETTER" IS A THREAT TO THEIR DO NOTHING AND UN-AMERICAN RADICAL IDEOLOGY.

Opinion Writer Froma Harrop Has A Stock Market Problem.

HARROP'S COMMENTARY IN THE NEW ORLEANS ADVOCATE DATED 9/20/21 TITLED, "BIDEN MARKET SURGES AND TRUMP'S BOASTING FADES" IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF HOW MUCH SHE KNOWS ABOUT STOCK MARKET HISTORY AND HOW OPINION WRITERS HAVE FAILED TO INFORM THE PUBLIC OF THE FACTS AS THEY TAKE PLACE. HARROP THINKS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS A PROBLEM BECAUSE HEY DO NOT BRAG ABOUT HOW WELL THE STOCK MARKET DOES ON THEIR WATCH. tHEN TELLS US HOW MUCH BETTER THE MARKET IS DOING ON BIDEN'S WATCH THAN IT DID ON TRUMP'S WATCH. AND ALL THE WHILE TRUMP WAS IN OFFICE AND PROCLAIMING HOW THE STOCK MARKET WAS THE BEST EVER, OPINION WRITERS REPORTED HIS COMMENTS AS FACT EVEN THOUGH PAST HISTORY OF THE STOCK MARKET TELLS US TRUMP WAS WRONG AND HE KNEW IT. iT WAS SIMILIAR TO HIS JOB CREATION BEING THE BEST EVER AND OPINION WRITERS REPORTED THAT AS FACT AND WAS FALSE ALSO. WHAT HAS TAKEN PLACE WITH OPINION WRITERS AND SO CALLED JOURNALIST WHO PROCLAIM THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO THE PEOPLE TO INFORM THEM HAS BEEN SIDELINED. AND IT STARTED WITH THE NEWT GINGRICH ERA. OPINION WRITERS WHO REPORTED TRUMP'S BRAGGING ABOUT BEING THE BEST AT EVERYTHING KNEW THE HISTORY OF THE PAST SAID OTHERWISE BUT NEVER FOUND TIME TO REPORT THE FACTS TO THE PEOPLE. TRUMP WAS THE NEWS, THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERED TO THEM. BUT POLITIDOSE IN COMMENTARY OVER THE PAST 9 YEARS HAS LAID OUT THE FACTS HOW DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATIONS ARE BEST AT GOVERNING IN EVERY MAJOR CATEGORY FOR THE COUNTRY AND THE PEOPLE. THERE IS NO NEED FOR BRAGGING, THE RECORD IS CLEAR OVER THE PAST 100 YEARS. OPINION WRITERS AND JOURNALISTS HAVE FAILED TO REPORT THE FACTS, THE HISTORY AND THE PRECEDENTS THAT BACK IT UP. THE BELOW INFORMATION ABOUT STOCK MARKET GAINS DURING PRESIDENTIAL TERMS HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPORTED IN POLITIDOSE. THE INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE TO HARROP AND OTHERS WHEN TRUMP WAS DOING HIS BRAGGING BUT THEY CHOOSE NOT TO REPORT IT SO THE PEOPLE COULD SEE THE EVIDENCE. THE INFORMATION IS TAKEN FROM DOW JONES HISTORICAL RECORDS. AVERAGE GAINS DJIA FOR PRESIDENTIAL TERMS. 1. BILL CLINTON UP 228.9% 2. FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT UP 198.6% 3. BARRACK OBAMA UP 148.3% 4. RONALD REAGAN UP 147.3% 5. DWIGHT EISENHOWER UP 123.7% 6. HARRY TRUMAN UP 75.2% 7. DONALD TRUMP UP 57% Note: Reagan, Bush 43 and Trump all cut taxes for corporations and the wealthy while Clinton and Obama did not and in fact Clinton raised taxes on that same group and Obama allowed the Bush tax cuts to expire for those making over $550,000.00 per year yet the market did better on Clinton and Obama's watch. Average gains for the Standard and Poor during Presidential terms. 1. BILL CLINTON UP 209% 2. BARRACK OBAMA UP 166% 3. FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT UP 153% 4. RONALD REAGAN UP 114% 5. KENNEDY JOHNSON UP 71% 6. DONALD TRUMP UP 70% 7. HARRY TRUMAN UP 68% HISTORY AND PRECEDENT TOLD US THE STOCK MARKET WOULD NOT ACCOMPLISH UNDER TRUMP WHAT HE DESCRIBED DESPITE THE TAX CUTS AND ALL THE BRAGGING. BRAGGING DURING TRUMP'S TERM IN OFFICE RECEIVED MORE ATTENTION THAN THE FACTS OR PRECEDENT. AND THAT REALLY SAYS IT ALL. THIS COMMENTARY WRITTEN BY JOE LORIO

Job Creation and Unemployment for August 2021

THE U.S. LABOR DEPARTMENT ANNOUNCED THAT THE ECONOMY ADDED 235,000 JOBS IN AUGUST AND THAT THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE CAME IN AT 5.2%, DOWN FROM THE 5.4% IN JULY. IT WAS THE SEVENTH STRAIGHT MONTH OF POSITIVE JOB GROWTH IN BIDEN'S FIRST 7 FULL MONTHS IN OFFICE. THE ECONOMIC PUNDITS WERE WRONG ONCE AGAIN WITH THEIR PREDICTIONS LIKE THEY HAVE BEEN ALL ALONG JUST LIKE THE GOP WHO WANT TO SEE THE PRESIDENT FAIL BECAUSE THEIR PARTY HAS A TERRIBLE RECORD ON THE ECONOMY, JOB CREATION AND UNEMPLOYMENT. THE JOB NUMBERS ALSO PROVED THOSE GOP GOVERNORS WHO CUT OFF THE UNEMPLOYMENT MONTHLY FUNDS BECAUSE THEY SAID IT ENCOURAGED PEOPLE NOT TO WORK PROVED WRONG BY THE AUGUST JOB NUMBERS. THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE WHEN TRUMP LEFT OFFICE IN JANUARY 2021 WAS 6.3%. IT WAS 4.7% WHEN OBAMA LEFT OFFICE IN JANUARY 2017. TH ECONOMY LOST JOBS ON TRUMP'S WATCH, THE FIRST PRESIDENT TO HAVE A NEGATIVE JOB CREATION RECORD SINCE THE GREAT DEPRESSION. PRESIDENT OBAMA INHERITED THE GREAT BUSH RECESSION OF 2008 BUT STILL CREATED OVER 11,000,000 NEW JOBS. THE AUGUST NUMBERS TELL THE STORY F AN ECONOMY THAT IS STILL RECOVERING AT AN UNEVEN, BUT STEADY PACE DUE TO THE SEVERITY OF THE RECESSION, THE PANDEMIC, THE LATEST COVID SURGE (AND OTHERS) AND A LACK OF VACCINATIONS AMONG MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WILLING TO PUT THEMSELVES AND OTHERS AT RISK. THE COUNTRY IS MAKING PROGRESS DESPITE THE NEGATIVE VOICES OUT THERE. THE GDP WAS 6.3% IN THE FIRST QUARTER AND 6.6% IN THE SECOND QUARTER BASED ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. THE ECONOMY HAS ADDED OVER 4,000,000 JOBS ON BIDEN'S WATCH AND WHEN CONGRESS PASSES THE PRESIDENT'S INFRASTRUCTURE BILL AND HIS BUILD BACK BETTER BILL THE OUT LOOK FOR CONTINUED ECONOMIC AND JOB GROWTH EXPANSION WILL BE LONG TERM. SO TUNE OUT THE GOP AND THEIR DITTO HEADS WITH THEIR TRASH TALK. AMERICA HAS AN ADULT IN THE WHITE HOUSE WHO HAS PLANS AND POLICIES FOR THE FUTURE AND THEY ARE WORKING.

Out Of Afghanistan: President Biden Ends America's Longest War.

PRESIDENT BIDEN WITHDREW ALL AMERICAN MILITARY FORCES FROM AFGHANISTAN OCCUPYING THAT COUNTRY FOR ALMOST 20 YEARS WHICH ENDED AMERICA'S LONGEST WAR. THE WITHDRAWAL INCLUDED THOUSANDS OF AMERICAN, AFGHAN AND ALLIES WHO WORKED WITH THE U.S. FORCES IN A JOINT EFFORT. THE WITHDRAWAL WAS A MASSIVE OPERATION AND ONE OF SUCCESS DESPITE THE CHAOTIC CONDITIONS THAT RESULTED FROM FAILURE BY THE AFGHAN GOVERNMENT AND MILITARY TO CHALLENGE THE TALIBAN ADVANCES AND TAKE OVER. THEY JUST CUT AND RAN. THE NOISE MACHINE, NAMELY THE GOP, SO CALLED CONSERVATIVES OF ALL STRIPES AND THE PRO WAR GROUPS CONDEMED THE PRESIDENT'S DECISION, ACCUSED THE PRESIDENT OF BEING WEAK AND SAID IT WOULD MAKE AMERICA MORE OPEN TO TERROR ATTACKS. THEIR ONLY SOLUTION IS TO STAY IN AFGHANISTAN ANOTHER 20 YEARS AND HAVE NO CLER POLICY ON THE SUBJECT OR HOW TO DISENGAGE. IT IS A RERUN OF WHAT THEY SAID WHEN THE U.S. ENDED THE VIET NAM WAR. THEY SAID THE DOMINO THEORY WOULD BE IN EFFECT, ALL SOUTH EAST ASIA WOULD FALL UNDER COMMUNIST RULE AND AMERICA WOULD BE IN MORE DANGER. WELL, VIET NAM FELL AND NONE OF THOSE PREDICTIONS CAME TO PASS. iN FACT THE OPPOSITE TOOK PLACE AND VIET NAM IS ONE COUNTRY, ONE PEOPLE, UNDER ONE FLAG AND ONE GOVERNMENT. PRESIDENT EISENHOWER ENDED THE KOREAN WAR AFTER HE BECAME PRESIDENT. HE UNDERSTOOD THE MISSION WAS ACCOMPLISHED AS SET BY PRESIDENT TRUMAN, THAT MISSION WAS TO STOP N. KOREA FROM TAKING OVER S. KOREA AND AMERICAN AND U.N. FORCES INTERVENTION ACCOMPLISHED THAT. PRESIDENT EISENHOWER KNEW IT WAS TIME TO END THAT WAR AND DID SO. EISENHOWER FACED SOME OF THE SAME NEGATIVE VOICES WE HEAR TODAY, BUT HE MADE THE CORRECT CALL AS PRESIDENT AND COMMANDER IN CHIEF. SO NOW PRESIDENT AND COMMANDER IN CHIEF BIDEN MADE HIS DECISION ON AFGHANISTAN. HE UNDERSTANDS THE MILITARY AND THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY HAVE THE ABILITY TO PROTECT AMERICA AND ITS PEOPLE WITHOUT OCCUPYING OTHER COUNTRIES. THE PRESIDENT ALSO UNDERSTANDS THE HISTORY OF AFGHANISTAN AND THAT THE COUNTRY'S GOVRNMENT HAS ALWAYS BEEN CONTROLLED BY RELIGIOUS FACTIONS THAT THE U.S. WILL NEVER CHANGE. THAT CUSTOM HAS BEEN A TRADITION IN THAT PART OF THE WORLD FOR 4 THOUSAND YEARS. TO THEM, RELIGION IS GOVERNMENT. THE PRESIDENT'S JOB NEVER BECOMES EASIER, AND THE PEOPLE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT. IRAQ IS STILL ON AMERICA'S AGENDA AND WHAT SHOULD BE DONE THERE WITH AMERICAS SECOND LONGEST WAR, 18 YEARS AND STILL COUNTING. SOONER OR LATER THAT BRIDGE WILL HAVE TO BE CROSSED. PRESIDENT BIDEN'S FOREIGN POLICY SHOULD BE GIVEN A CHANCE TO WORK. fOUR PRESIDENTS WERE GIVEN AFGHANISTAN 20 YEARS TO WORK AND 18 PLUS YEARS IN IRAQ TO WORK. JOE BIDEN, THE FOURTH PRESIDENT TOOK THE FIRST STEP AND MADE A DECISION ON AFGHANISTAN. IT IS A START TO A NEW FOREIGN POLICY UNDER A NEW COMMANDER IN CHIEF. THIS COMMENTARY WRITTEN BY JOE LORIO
