Just mho, but the Bugzy Abamanation administration and the people that support him are acting like those guys from Chicago.. you know, the guys that like to strong arm people that get in their way… the same guys that like to make custom made cement diving shoes for people they cannot shut up any other way.

Just sayin’

Someone needs to remind these people that they are supposed to be public servants. They work at the discretion (mainly paying back old favors) of an ELECTED OFFICIAL. There is no public office in this country beyond criticism including the President. Having “White House Officials” criticize anyone for saying and printing things critical of our government is leaning heavily on our rights. Not surprising though. Anyone in this country has a right to criticize and have certain expectations from elected officials. We do not have a “King” who cannot be criticized, we have a duly elected President who can. I would add that in my opinion if you didn’t bother to vote then you can shut up!

Right on Fred, and speaking of Obama’s stash – how about the cool million from the Pulitzer. Need we wonder if he will spread it around?

I hope this drives the FOX numbers higher, and reports are already rolling in that it is doing just that.

Clearly, the BHO administration wants all media to be arms of the state.

I find it laughable that the administration blames Fox’s desire to make money as the reason they are biased against the administration. They feel that this must play well to their base, it shows us the mindset of the anti-capitalist left.
With all of the problems that this country is facing right now it seems that the administration should have more important things to do than to attack the one news outlet that they haven’t been able to control.

I’m in agreement with you on Hannity. He whines too much and uses the same BS over and over. It’s like he’s as petty as the leftistas he tries to discredit. Beck just keeps digging up more and more stuff and he has fun with it too. Like today, he had a guy in a Mao costume “sitting by the phone”!!! LOL!!! That is the kind of thing that points out the absurdity of these people. I like his style.

And on BZ’s comment:

And the bulk of Americans are still more concerned with American Idol and Cash Cab and Oprah and Jennifer Aniston.
Dolts.
The bulk of Americans: useful, IGNORANT tools.

A brilliant observation that Texas Fred adds to:
I don’t know if America is WORTH saving, far too many Americans are in the tank and FILLED to the brim with the Kool Aid!

I agree wholeheartedly with you both! I think I may well look into relocating to a remote locale where the government doesn’t care what you do.

I keep waiting for the Obama administration to come up with some reason or another to launch or at least threaten lawsuits against FOX News. From looking at past history, that is a favorite tactic of theirs when they come up against someone who disagrees with them and is willing to raise their voice.

No panties in a wad here, Beck IS extremist, and THAT is the reason I like him… Hannity? I just don’t trust, at all…

I am an extremist, nearly all of my friends, family and readers are extremists, and personally, I wear that name proudly..

Just like when the left, and FAUX conservatives call me a RACIST… Yep, I am… Make no secret of it… I am an American PATRIOT too, and I will fight to the death if that’s what it takes, but seriously, I don’t know if America is WORTH saving, far too many Americans are in the tank and FILLED to the brim with the Kool Aid!

I know America NEEDS to be saved but unless we have something like 50% or more of the American people and at least 75% of ALL police and military backing the move, I fear a revolution that will be massacred before it gets started…

The Obama administration is not to worried about the news division of FOX News but rather the extremist commentors such as Beck and Hannedy. Before some of you get your feathers ruffled about my calling Beck and others extremist let me explain. The doe-eyed middle in American politics has never started a movement on its own. It has always been the forces on the fringes who encourage change—extremists if you like. The early American partiots were radicals, extremist out of step with those in the vast middle, but those in the middle were over time dragged along by the onrushing events. What we have now is extremist on the left in charge of the White House agenda and extremist on the right led those such as Beck and their can be no middle ground and in the end the vast middle will be swept along by one of these groups. As a great conservative once said, “extremism in defense of liberty is no vice and moderation in persuit of justice is no virtue”. Barry Goldwater.

I heard the best analogy of the “War on Fox” yet today…I can’t remember who said it, but I think it was Dana Perino. She said “The Obama administration needs an enemy to blame, 9+ months into Obama’s administration they understand GWB’s fault is running out, they need to blame someone and FOX is the loudest one in the room” I agree with that 100%

Obama has begun the death spiral, truth is about to bury his ass. They don’t come on Fox because they can’t argue facts, all they have (Like all libturds) is emotion, and once you take that away, then all you are left with is truth and facts…Obama loses on both of those accounts.

You know what I find funny is:
Msnbc is not ideological? ABC is an unbiased news organization? Bullshit, they blasted GWB with more ideological rhetoric than Glenn Beck or Bill O’Riley combined…But I guess as long as you agree with their policy’s it’s “unbiased”
