Worry about the mess in government -- leave Fox alone
Thursday, October 22, 2009 at 10:15AM "I think that what our advisers simply said is, is that we are going to take media as it comes," Obama said. "And if media is operating, basically, as a talk radio format, then that's one thing. And if it's operating as a news outlet than that's another. But it's not something I'm losing a lot of sleep over."
This sounds like another veiled threat. It's none of Obama's business what Fox wants to to be, or is. There gets to be a point in all this presidential blustering and arrogant lecturing where you just drop all pretense of status differences and appropriate respect for the office and say -- "Get over yourself, bub, and do your frigging job."
A president should represent and serve all Americans, yet this president is stuck in partisan campaign mode. He's acting more like Paul Begala than The POTUS. He switches between that role, a political hack, and Emperor -- the former something we don't need any more of and the latter something we don't need anymore, period -- FDR will do for the nation's lifetime.
