    I think you hit the nail on the head there Mia.

    How does the Obama Administration have so much time to be going after a news channel?

    Isn't the economy in crisis?

    Aren't we dealing with a war?

    Between Obama's nonstop campaigning, running off to get Olympic bids for his state, and bashing a little news channel, when does he have time to actually be President?

    I think this very thing is a great example. Going after a cable news channel because it dares to question the great one is a threat against freedom. It's an attack on the 4th estate.

    If Obama doesn't like Fox he doesn't have to watch it. However, trying to exclude it from a news pool, is a clear attack on the freedom of the press.

    It's too bad that Obama doesn't bring the same venom against america's true enemies as he does against his political opponents.

    i'm voteing for palin i think she would be good. i voted for obama:( i really think he is doing a lousy job myself. I consider myself middle of the road for polotics views. Instead of getting on the fox news he should be worrying about jobs and health insurance. The only reason obama got elected was because he is black and a suck up. Which hell most polotics are but he is one of the worst.

    And why in the world would you vote for Palin?

    Something sounds awefully fishy in your post.

    Race and his Yes man attitude certainly did play a part. Who says Palin's even running?

    You get weird ideas in your head when you spend too much time "pondering" while playing golf.

    Another amusing thing about right wingers claiming Fox has such massive power and influence because of the 2.8 million people who watch BillO or Glenn Beck. About 1.5 million people watch The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Sure.. not as many... but still I think it kind of puts it in context. Fox does not reach that wide of an audience. What they do is preach to the choir and in some unfortunate situations they have set the topic for the real news networks (I think it's this that the Obama admin is trying to nip in the bud.)

    Oh god... what is it? Is Obama doing too much? Or is he taking too many vacations? Is he a dictator or is he a golfer? The righties need to make up their minds. The attacks are so all over the place that they just don't make any sense.

    And right wingers going after Obama for taking a break is pretty freaking ridiculous considering Bush broke all records for vacation time.

    :rolleyes:

    I don't believe that you voted for Obama. Most Obama supporters can spell.

    Anyone who would vote for Sarah Palin shouldn't be taken seriously.

    Yet that audience is larger than all three major liberal leftist news networks combined. Go figured.

    Is this the new attack? Did the "he's doing too much" one not work out? You do realize that they are saying exactly the opposite thing right?

    So Obama is both doing too much and not doing enough. I love it!

    Like the American Hero Alan Grayson said: "If Obama eats a BLT, the Republicans will want to ban bacon."

    (i'm paraphrasing there...)

    The right wing loon attacks on Obama are just so flat out RIDICULOUS that it's amazing that people don't see how ridiculous they are. With Bush, the attacks were on real things.. you know like starting an unjust war and taking away people's civil liberties.

    :rolleyes:

    I think Sarah Palin is hot. Not sure about the stretch marks from having 4 kids though, but she is a yummy mummy. Id do her.

    Aside from her looks, any woman who can track, kill, and field dress a moose has a strange charm that is hard to overcome. I sometimes fantasize about handing her ammunition for her rifle as she shoots bears, wolves, and spotted owls from an airplane.
