But I feel those on the right disagree on what KIND of socialist he is. This latest pogrom against Fox has made it clear to me that Chairman Obama is a Maoist more than anything else. Even Lenin wouldn’t have the temerity to go after Fox News.

I don’t always agree with you, Leon. But on this one, we are brothers in arms.

If war is what they want, then we need to make sure it is war they have. Here is a little bite from a report on who Obama met with immediately after this clownish attempt at thuggery:

“Obama’s comments also came after he met Monday with political commentators Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow of MSNBC; Eugene Robinson and E.J. Dionne of the Washington Post; Ron Brownstein of the National Journal; John Dickerson of Slate; Frank Rich, Maureen Dowd and Bob Herbert of the New York Times; Jerry Seib of the Wall Street Journal, Gloria Borger of CNN and U.S. News and World Report, and Gwen Ifill of PBS.”

Historically, news outlets were very upfront about their biases, it’s only a recent development that news sources pretended to be objective and unbiased. This gave liberals an incredible advantage, liberal news outlets had the gravitas to pummel conservatives. After all, they didn’t have an axe to grind, so they must be objective and telling the truth.

The war on Fox news will make more Americans see that indeed, all news outlets have an agenda. I think in the long run that’s a huge boon for conservatives. I would say 90% of the reason Democrats are able to get elected is directly attributable to a fawning liberal media.

What I find amusing is, outside of the obvious editorial style shows like Hannity and O’Reilly, the “hard” news on Fox really isn’t that slanted.

At the risk of being labeled politically incorrect or insensitive, it must be pointed out that Democrats have a serious inability to learn from the mistakes of others.

Nixon had an enemies list, He got drummed out of office. Obama is now trying the same thing.

Jimmy Carter ran up the deficit during a recession which drove unemployment sky high. He too, got drummed out of office. Obama is Jimmy Carter on steroids.

Nixon sent his VP out to demonize the press. That backfired. Obama sent his entire team to demonize one network. Fox has enjoyed a huge increase in viewership. And if Obama wants to reach moderate voters in 2012, He will need Fox.. . Those viewers no longer watch CNN or NBC.

Obama and the Democrats just cannot learn from history and each week is revealing more and more bizarre things about the administration, its policies and its intentions. ( at least you can get a laugh out of it at http://www.conservativeblog.thewebinfocenter.com/conservative-blog/where-the-real-wild-things-are )

This president never ceases to amaze. I hope that the Kool Aid is wearing off and the people who have even a modicum of concern for the basic principles of our country begin to take notice and make their voices heard. There is an overt and covert attempt to hijack this country through the use of mainstream media/social networking/the internet/and good old fashioned intimidation tactics. A truly unprescedented assault. I would call it brilliant if it was being used in the world of business. But it is bein used by an administratrion which was elected/hired to bring us together and leave “old politics” outside the door. It will be fascinating how it plays itself out for Obama, but my sense is that he is in well over his head and is totally overplaying his hand.

since it is one of the most damaging things he is doing to himself and it is waking up a *lot* of people to that lefty and his real face which is not the one tons of them thought they elected.

The O is making a brutally painful mistake. time to pop the popcorn and grab a beer…

even if it’s in 2013, we all know full well the revisionist history will have decided the war against Fox never happened and that anything that remotely fails to genuflect to the MSM will be treated as a shocking and totally unprecedented breach of decorum.

That’s why the time to engage this is now, while Obama still has his hand in the figurative cookie jar. And we gotta do it… the Chicago way.

“After this week, no Republican administration will be so foolish as to replicate the mistakes of the past Republican administrations who felt like they had to treat DNC propaganda mouthpieces like the NYT and MSNBC like objective news organizations.”

You hold the GOP in higher esteem than I do.

Am I alone here?!?! It seems to me that we are missing a huge point here in the war on Fox. President Obama is scared of Fox News! He says he is not losing sleep, but obviously he is, as well as Anita, Robert, David, etc. The fact that they are taking the time to try and muzzle Fox news seems to show that they are shaking in their boots. They are not thinking clearly, and just acting irrationally, trying to avoid another Van Jones incident.

free and fair access in this one instance. I don’t want to think what the next play toward hushing dissent will be. At least they can’t burn Palin’s book right now, and Levin’s has sold too many copies for them to get their hands on all of them. If not for Fox and Youtube where would we be once the FCC destroys talk radio. Ah, the fairness and tolerance of the left is indescribable, and we will be so much better off when we are free from making any decisions or having any thoughts of our own.

is beyond shock.

I mean, shutting down opposition media? This is blatant banana republic stuff.

If GWB had tried this they would have hung him out to dry.

Apparently, most Americans have been in the pot so long they don’t realize they are now being boiled…
