“All the policies of this administration are front and center…”

Only because his hidden agendas have been exposed by Fox News and conservative talk radio, which is why he is trying to destroy them. He has the sickness of power.

It’s like the Welfare Reform Act pushed through by the Republican Congress, even though liar Clinton tried to take credit for it.

Well to be fair they’re consistent. They’re also ok with Hugo Chavez taking
over the media in his country.

So much for freedom of the press under Obama! Which freedom will he attack next?

I thought Democrats were A OK with Gay Prostitutes. I thought that it was all about privacy. Suddenly when we accept a former gay prostitute then you start throwing it back up in their face. Which is it? Is it OK to be a gay porn star or does being a gay porn star forever bannish you from polite company? I wish you guys would get your story straight.

All the policies of this administration are front and center, as evidenced by yours and others ability to scrutinize, analyze, question, dissect, to examine in detail with careful or critical attention, investigate, study, search, research, inquire into systematically, examine the particulars, observe, explore, look at, inspect, view closely and critically, and examine formally or informally.

Except where they lock people out of committee, attach parts of a bill to another bill and then lock that bill away where no one can read it, attach placeholders, refuse to allow the bill to be read or pass the bill without the promised 5 day waiting period. Super duper transparancy there!

the voters of VA and NJ could do a lot of good for US if they will send a message to the radical Dems by electing 2 GOP Governors

it would be a shot heard loud and clear in Washington DC….pray for it

These excuses that other Presidents curbed free press in times of national emergency are the lamest of the lame…..this is all POLITICAL….pure Chicago thug behavior that ABC,NBC,CBS all rejected.

Welcome to the old USSR or the new Venezuela….either way this attack on a free press was defeated when old liberal media said NO. I think THE ONE has crossed the line with this gambit. Those who have missed the RED FLAGS suddenly see them clearly.

Who do these people think they are?

Ignoramus: You used it as a noun.

Here’s your own words:

“In the mean time
we shall steer clear
of your steer manure,
you queer.”

You accused him of being a homosexual, and now you lie and deny it. Your own words convict you, hater.

The only other colloquial use of “queer” as a noun is to denote counterfeit money.
You lie, as always, and still have no argument for anything, yet you nag others, like an old woman, to debate things.

More liberals watch Fox News than the liberals watch CNN and MSNBC together.

False equivalence! The NYT endangered us all by revealing national secrets to smear President Bush. Fox News tells the truth about Emperor Obama, and doesn’t endanger our national security.
Not the same thing at all.

Uh, not like Obama is doing. The news fox has reported is factual. Not made up, not imagined. It is actual statements of fact about Obama’s own actions and words, as well as those of various members of his administration, especially the Czars. The administration was just as upset about ACORN reporting from what it sounds like.

An absence of leadership in the GOP does not Fox a leader make.

Gus, you’re delusional.

E, Lincoln suspended habeas corpus too.

I wonder if Gannon would get promoted from gay porn star to “Artiste” if he was democrat? I mean you clowns will defend child rapists if they are democrats.

I don’t know what they intend this to come off as, but it comes off as petty, childish, just foolish, and not presidential.

I am too young to remember Nixon, but I did research his presidency when this kept being referred to as “Nixonian” and it sure seems close.

Immature nonsense. Let’s just get on with the real issues and quit this playground stuff.

Bob,

This is the President of the United States, not a Vice Presidential candidate. Big difference between a person who is actually the President and somebody who is number two on a ticket of a candidate .

I don’t think anybody, at least I am not, is suggesting that other Presidents(and other govt officials) have not engaged in a tit for tat with the press, and all Presidents have favorites who get more access and those they give much less access, BUT, this is different to *me* it is really just….can’t think of a word that is strong enough but not too strong to explain what I mean.

Nixon engaged in this kind of thing. President Obama is seems to be engaging in the exact same kind of thing. They are equally distasteful(speaking of Nixon’s behavior before the worst of it of course).

If my daughter wrecks my car, and I fix it and then my son wrecks my car, my son doesn’t get off the hook just because my daughter has already done the same thing. They each get held accountable for THEIR actions, not what the other one did. The mom thing my kids rolled their eyes over while growing up has been “I don’t want to hear about what(insert sibling) did. We are talking about YOUR actions.”

Just my opinion however, and not worth any real value….except to me of course lol

Fox only “skews to the right” if you have the mistaken idea that our Constitution, individual independence and the free enterprise economic system are “right wing”.
This is just more leftie redefinition for political purposes. They make the common mistake of “assuming the opposite”. Since they are far left wing, the assumption is that those who oppose them are equally extreme in the opposite direction. It’s just muddy thinking.
The real “right wing” is a police state or a military dictatorship. Conservatives are the true moderates. The lefties have redefined “moderate” to be “not so far left”, which is just wrong.

Another disgusting homo fantasy from you, sicko.

Thanks Rob.

I won’t deny that Fox skews to the right a bit, but that skew is
less to the right than the rest of the media skews to the left.

I’m going to have to disagree here. yeah, the specialty shows skew
right… Hannity and Beck, FOR SURE… but the pure reporting part… I
find to be very balanced… to the point of annoyance sometimes.

Lets not fool anyone here, though. BO’s irritation is NOT with “FOX
News”… it’s with Glenn Beck…

“I did not expect the two of you against the freedom of the press.”

Then you haven’t been paying attention to their antiAmerican hatespew.

Unfortunately, Emperor Obama and his Dem Congress are rotten to the core.
His 20 years following “God Damn America” Wright caused that.

It was not that long ago, that you were arguing for states rights, and for their right to secede.
I appears to me you change your mind on issues depending on circumstances.

Not at all. Lincoln unconstitutionally went to war. He was morally right in what he did, but Constitutionally wrong.

States do and should have the right to succeed from the union. Without that threat, there can be no peaceful means of resisting an out of control Federal Government. You think the founders wanted another British Monarchy?

Who knew the new guy was so much like the last guy?

False equivalence. Lincoln was trying to preserve the Union by outing the traitors. Obama the traitor is trying to silence dissent from his unAmerican actions and policies. He’s trying to cover up his own gangsterism and treason.
Big difference.

LBH, Obama is in the process of throwing the VA gov under the bus so that looks like a done deal. NJ, we’ll see.

Lincoln suspended habeas corpus too.

Lincoln suspended habeas corpus during a civil war. That’s Constitutional.

The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion, the public safety may require it.

Since we aren’t in a civil war or being invaded, whats Zero’s excuse?

“…you queer.”

Typical projection from you, sicko.

That’s the House of the Commons doing that.

We have a House of Commons? When did that happen? : )

Who was it thaat threw the NYTimes off the presidential plane?
who was it who threatened to prosecute the NYTimes for reporting on
illegal wiretapping?
Who told the press to “watch what you say”?
You know who.

I don’t know if you are being serious or not Bob but your statement is true.

You have no counter argument, or the ability to form one, so you spew idiotic nonsense.

You make a fool of yourself, as always.

LBH, no war for me thanks, I’m hoping people will wake up.

Which can only be suspended by Congress.

What’s up with the commodity price report?

Check your PM.

Ellinas…is there something wrong with being gay?

Vladimir Lenin believed that the only way for communism to defeat the West was through subversion, using the old “divide and conquer” strategy.

And old Vladimir’s beliefs went down the toilet long time ago.
Find another slogan to rally the troops.

So from the posts that realitybasedbob and ellinas, they are in support of Obama banning fox news from covering the WH. I did not expect the two of you against the freedom of the press.

the radicals will fail…..Americans can be fooled but they are not fools

the far left needs utter despair to advance their agenda and while Team Obama strives to create this mindset, the commom sense and natural optimism of the people will defeat this cynical ploy.

the far far right wing radical nuts will fail…..Americans can be fooled but they are not fools

the far far right wing radical nuts need utter despair to advance their agenda and while Team Obama strives to change this mindset, the commom sense and natural optimism of the people will defeat the far far right wing radical nuts cynical ploy.

In March 1863, Lincoln appointed Gen. Ambrose Burnside to be the Union commander overseeing Ohio. In executing his duties, Burnside assumed the power to define lawful dissent. By his measure, any criticism of the president was treasonous. As he put it: “newspapers were full of treasonous expression.” In his view it had to be stopped. He thus issued a general order (#38). That order warned that “declaring sympathies for the enemy” would be a punishable offense in the Military District of Ohio. With that order in place, Burnside went after anti-war protesters, most notably a former Ohio congressman, Clement L. Vallandigham.

Only because his hidden agendas have been exposed by Fox News and conservative talk radio, which is why he is trying to destroy them. He has the sickness of power.

A pound of walnuts costs $3.39.
A pound of chestnuts goes for $2.19.
A one pound bag of shelled salted mixed nuts goes for $3.99.

HG, If you peel the rotten outer layers of an onion, the center of the onion is still usable.

Vallandigham was a diehard Copperhead and a vigorous defender of state rights. Though personally opposed slavery, he felt the national government could not constitutionally compel the states to end what was called the “peculiar institution.” On May 1, 1863, Vallandigham gave a speech in which he labeled the Union war as “wicked, cruel, and unnecessary.” This conflict, waged by “King Lincoln,” was a “war for the purpose of crushing out liberty and erecting a despotism.” He then called for Lincoln’s removal from office. Enraged by his words, Vallandigham’s supporters burned the offices of a Republican newspaper, the Dayton Journal. Burnside then had Vallandigham arrested and charged him with uttering “disloyal sentiments and opinions, with the object and purpose of weakening the power of the Government in its efforts to suppress unlawful rebellion.”

The former congressman was convicted by a military tribunal and was sentenced to “close confinement” until the end of the war. Lincoln, however, changed the punishment to banishment to the Confederate states.

What happened to the most transparent administration promise?

It is the most transparent administration there for your perusal.
All the policies of this administration are front and center, as evidenced by yours and others ability to scrutinize, analyze, question, dissect, to examine in detail with careful or critical attention, investigate, study, search, research, inquire into systematically, examine the particulars, observe, explore, look at, inspect, view closely and critically, and examine formally or informally.

And so the libtards all resort to, ‘but your side did it too…” like little children.

What happened to the most transparent administration promise? Was it meant by transparent that they’d show their true colors as paranoid, exclusionist, bigoted and arrogant in hamfisted acts of stupidity? We all assumed Obama and company meant allowing all representatives of the press and the people to see everything that was going on without obstruction. Silly us.

I do suppose the upside to this is that we can now tar and feather you next election advertising season with these bonafide factual actions of Obama and his cronies, and the sound bites and quotes of liberals defending them with childish excuses.

In a couple years when the magnitude of your failure, how Obama was merely some guy who stepped into the wrong place at the wrong time, and was merely not Bush, and how the public was primed by you to reflexively expect the impossible and even the undefined and then see failure automatically, and how it played against your man BO, maybe you’ll get a sense of how mentally disordered you’ve become and how much of that malignancy has been transmitted to the people.

You dance with the mob until the mob Allamandes left right over you because you forgot the calls you gave.

dino just skewered you, ellinas.

A pound of walnuts costs $3.39.
A pound of chestnuts goes for $2.19.
A one pound bag of shelled salted mixed nuts goes for $3.99.

False equivalence………Big difference.

The price of romaine lettuce is $0.89 per head.
A bunch of celery costs $0.79.
A pound of walnuts costs $3.39.

None of us should participate in any of this horses&%t being shoveled at us.

Please do not participate in anything.
In the mean time
we shall steer clear
of your steer manure,
you queer.

What robert180 sometimes says, is pricey indeed.

Ellinas is a homophobe

I will defer to your superior knowledge to tell what I meant.

Unfortunately, Emperor Obama and his Dem Congress are rotten to the core.
His 20 years following “God Damn America” Wright caused that.

The price of bananas is $0.33 per pound.
A pound of walnuts costs $3.39.
A pound of chestnuts goes for $2.19.
A one pound bag of shelled salted mixed nuts goes for $3.99.

Does that mean you wore the feet out on your Lenin jammies?

No! Mine are flannel. Robert180′s are Lenin.

LOL! Good one.

Lincoln loses patience: Papers closed, editors arrested
By mid-May 1864, Lincoln’s patience with the oppositional Copperhead press had begun to fray. What triggered Lincoln’s wrath was a bogus item that appeared in two Copperhead newspapers out of New York — the Journal of Commerce and the World. The papers ran a fake story that reported a presidential proclamation to the effect that the Lincoln administration was about to draft 400,000 men. According to Tedford and Herbeck, “Lincoln ordered the two newspapers closed and their owners arrested and imprisoned. The Independent Telegraph System, which had transmitted the story, was seized by the military and its transmissions stopped.”

Additionally, and as my colleague David L. Hudson Jr. has noted: Sometimes “people were arrested for wearing Confederate buttons and for singing Confederate songs. Editors were arrested, papers closed and correspondents were banned from the fields of battle. A military governor, with the approval of Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, destroyed the office of the Washington, D.C., newspaper, the Sunday Chronicle.”
