Obama goes Hunting for Fox

Falcon:

I see where Obama is blasting Fox news again because they are basically the only media that haven’t endorsed Obama and his henchmen and haven’t constantly lied about his administration.

Just think about it, we have a president that has never run a business, been in the medical profession, never worked for a business, never created anything, not an accountant, never worked in immigration, won a Nobel Peace Prize for doing nothing and if you really dig into his past that isn’t sealed, you’ll find nothing that would even qualify him for as much as a dog catcher.  Only in America could a person so totally unexceptional and unknowledgeable be in the position he’s currently in.

This unknown has taken it upon himself to cobble together Obamacare, loan trillions to solar energy companies that have all gone belly up, given taxpayer money to foreign companies, bailed out Wall Street, got a free Nobel Prize based on nothing he ever did for humanity, has allowed illegal aliens to live in our country for no reason other than it’s on his agenda, basically he’s working off a wish list on how to destroy America.

Yet this guy has flim flamed the major television networks, PBS, most major news magazines that are still being published, most of the main newspapers, Nobel Prize committee, Time magazine with a few exceptions and basically standing alone against this unqualified person who’s President, we have Fox News plus the majority of talk radio who have all been fair to Obama by not lying about him as have all those who think he’s some type of Messiah rather than a Flim Flam Man that’s made dunces out of all of them.  He’s used as filler for 60 Minutes and ABC is the White House news outlet.  Everything about Obama is basically a lie and as much a fantasy as could be produced by Disney Land and/or Hollywood.

Maybe he should get an Academy Award for his performance because he’s sure fooled a mess of liberal non-thinkers.

ABC News the Press Office for Obama

Falcon:

I see where the Media Research Center has stated ABC news is nothing more than the press office of the Obama administration.  Stating they are and embarrassment to the profession.  Instead of telling Americans the truth about the administration’s reckless spending binge, the tax-happy liberal media are toeing the party line; raise taxes on the ‘wealthy’ and the crisis will be averted.

MRC goes on to say, “No serious news organization could possibly commit 17 times more coverage to touting tax hikes as the solution to this crisis than spending cuts,” as did ABC.

The coverage given by ABC’s Diane Sawyer just goes to show how biased-information is conveyed to the ignorant and unknowing public to skew their thinking about Obama and his multitude of mistakes starting on five years of agenda driven foul-ups that are slowly destroying our Republic.
