DUmmies perturbed over Time magazine cover

Have you seen Time Magazines new cover? I just saw it at the checkout.



And no, I refused to pick it up. I have never subscribed to the magazine. They seem to have become a RW talking point, as far as I can tell. Or maybe they always were.

 

Here is a clip to the cover story. Without subscribing, it is all I can get.

Obama's Race for the Cure

The President's second term may hinge on how fast his health care reform can recover

A good President needs a big comfort zone. He should be able to treat enemies as opportunities, appear authentic in joy and grief, stay cool under the hot lights. But humility doesn't come naturally to those who decide they are qualified to run the free world. So the sign that the Obama presidency had reached a turning point came not when his poll numbers sank or his allies shuddered or the commentariat went hunting for the right degree of debacle to compare to the rollout of Obamacare.

It happened when he started apologizing. In triplicate. For not knowing what was going on in his own Administration. For failing to prevent his signature achievement from detonating in prime time. For not telling the whole truth when he promised people that Obamacare would not touch them without permission: "If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan."

Obama's supporters can decry a "feeding frenzy," but this is a critical moment for a President whose agenda for a second term amounted to little more than being not as lame as the other guy. The HealthCare.gov website may or may not get fixed on deadline, the senior staff may be booted and rebooted, but it is already too late to avoid a pageant of media scrutiny, Republican merriment, a rebuke even from Bill Clinton and a host of existential questions: Can this policy be saved? What is left of Obama's second term if it is consumed by fixing an unpopular policy from the first? How could a White House appear so confident and incompetent at the same time?

Sounds like it is straight from Faux news. Talk about a "feeding frenzy", well Time Magazine, tag you're it. They are a weekly news magazine? Yeah, right.

And then the DUmmies claim that Time is a right-wing rag.  :lmao:

If Newsweek were still alive, they'd have a picture of a happy lower middle class family, now able to afford medical care thanks to Obamacare.

If you take out the staple in the center, a few pages of TIME will do well at the bottom of the bird cage!

I'm sorry, I didn't catch that, just whatever happened to Newsweek?

Oh that's right, it crashed and burned just like Air America and just like PMSNBC is on trajectory to do.

Journalism career[edit]

After being hired as a reporter for The Miami Herald in 1987, Carney joined Time magazine as its Miami Bureau Chief in 1989.  Carney worked as a correspondent in Time's Moscow Bureau for three years, covering the collapse of the U.S.S.R.. He came to Washington in 1993 to report on the Bill Clinton White House.[2]
He has written and reported about the presidency of George W. Bush, and was one of a handful of reporters who were aboard Air Force One with President Bush on September 11, 2001.[2] Carney later won the 2003 Gerald R. Ford Prize for Distinguished Reporting on the Presidency.
Carney was Time's Washington Bureau Deputy Chief from 2003 to 2005, and Chief from September 2005 until December 2008. He was assigned to the magazine's Washington Bureau in that tenure while also being able to write about politics and national affairs. Carney has also worked for CNN (another TIME Warner division) as a special correspondent.

Carney just couldn't spend another day working for that right wing rag so he switched sides and went to work for Barry.
