Obama Administration ramrodded by Fox, again.

Read Time:1 Minute, 9 Second

The Obama Administration has yet again been directed by PR work from the right wing nutter coalition over at Fox News (pardon the pun in dedicate ‘news’). Presidential press secratary Robert Gibbs provided the ‘apology’ which from my personal opinion is a disavowing by the President. It’s his admin, he holds the responsibility. It’s not the first time and probably won’t be the last. I’ve watched and waited for the retraction or repeal of the hastily put up aggregate piece here and found no repeal only a new, distinct headline… the video posted can not be viewed …. this is because it is filled with Fox lies. They have removed them due to litigation. I’m surprised not to find a turn around here … so I am posting the duly diligent story. Personal commentary complete. Our government is allowing wing nuttery to set the course: Health Care? Right… Fox campaigned with conservatives to reduce it to the toothless, second rate national lack of real coverage affair that it is and OH BTW! welcome back to chattle-dom ladies…your equal rights are all back of the bus courtsey of the Obama back off stance by these hate mongering PR machine. You are not in charge of your body! Same with the so called Banking Reform.
Lets at least get this Shirley Sherrod wrongness right… here?

Good one, Gwen. Politics leaves me numb sometimes. But this whole issue picks up the pulse. Fox News and their viewers are like belligerent characters straight out of the Old Testament, hell bent on destroying all other tribes by any means necessary when it suits them. Shameless and stupid.

The Whitehouse needs to grow a spine and quit falling for this crap.

Great post, these things need to be said Gwen. We have chosen to sit by idly while special interests dictate policy.

Tim really good point about Beck, and why should they fear a punk and a clown?

Good point about fearing a punk and a clown, he loves attention to help his ratings, like all entertainers.

Hey Gwen
I just don’t get it, why is Fox seemingly calling the shots. They direct the Administration as if it were on strings. Is it Ramh I wonder who is directly intercepting accusations from Fox?
Somebody is dropping the ball and letting the President be distracted.
I’m seeing hope and change starting to become, worry and despair. We’ve come to far to let this happen. Could be wrong here, but maybe now is the time to go on offense with Fox and all the rest of them. Ignoring them just doesn’t work because Someone in this Administration just proved their afraid of Glenn Beck.

Tim, Olbermann’s special comment made me look up… it should make us all look up. But I didn’t see any correction here. So I posted this.
I read what candidates write, to usually choose mine. Audacity made me work very hard, get back into politics… put Obama in the White House. He’s a brilliant man, in my opinion. Rahm is little ceaser who is a ‘fuck all’ kind of politico. Chicago style. I think him a waste of space in the WH. This all middle of the road and allowing Fox and the Teabaggers and the racists to bend policy…. through Republican duplicity…. it’s shadowed and spoiled what is touted as ‘great strides’ in HCR and banking reform. It’s placating. And no one but Obama is responsible for it. Like he took responsibility for the Gulf mess…daily it comes out that Thad Allen has looked the other way as BP sand dumps to cover FL beaches and cover the oil gluts up. Topped off with how the BP mess is being handled… I do not support this kind of leadership. And the EU, which was so happy with Obama is wondering what’s up too. The papers over there are more and more op-ed-ing against his protocols. People are taking a global concern about this Gulf of Mx debacle. If you think it’s over… you’re nutz. That ‘cap’ still allows thousands of gallons a day to escape. We have no idea what the science is there. Or what is really going on…. BP controls it all. I’m with Bobby Kennedy Jr and Bob Redford…. don’t change your light bulb…. change your politicians.

Tim, I think we absolutely must take a part in our political world… we make a difference. No matter how small.
