I think the point Fisk was making was there are ominous signs which are being ignored. The hysterical reaction to a rather mild and matter of fact report suggest he's right.

Suffering from ads?

Again Horsey... I think even the biggest super patriot realizes that this problem can't be solved overnight. So for Mr (I'm totally biased against America) Fisk to try to claim that it's failed at this early point in the process is just silly. The hysterical reaction you are seeing is more hysterical laughter at you using Fisk as your news source and that you consider him objective

Jeez I thought that was what Fisk has been saying for months....

He didn't claim that at all - this is your prejudice speaking.

I don't use Fisk as my news source - he mostly writes commentary and analysis.

Name one commentator you regard as objective.

You just don't like him because he's right a lot of the time and gets under your skin.
