Catch the sarcism, there?  Good, because that was how it was intended.

I throw this question out there to the wind.  I just read the most insane blog written by another blogger who says that Fox News is biased and taking their talking points from the White House.  Their facts coming from the Far Left Liberal MSNBC, (no fair and balanced reporting here guys, make no mistake).  Watch and be amazed. 

 

I am always alittle dazed after reading, or seeing, something like this.  Isn’t Keith Olberman the same guy who, on July 21, 2008 slammed an elderly war veteran (83 years-old), for as Olbermann said it was, “a slob”, “dangerously deluded”, and “a clown”.  This is a real educated reporting style, wouldn’t you say?  Keith Olbermann degrades Fox News for trying to show BOTH sides, yet openingly pushes a leftist liberal agenda each day on his show.  Come on now.  Who is being biased in their reporting?  Seems to be to be like the pot calling the kettle black.

I AM NEVER AT A LOSS TO SAY “WHAT THE HECK IS HE TALKING ABOUT?”

BARACK OBAMA SEEMS TO LIKE TO SLAP OUR MILITARY IN THE FACE WHENEVER HE CAN GET THE CHANCE.  NOW HE DEEMS IT CREDIBLE TO HUMILIATE THEM AND THEN SAY HE DID IT FOR THEIR OWN GOOD.

I DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT I WOULD LIKE MY PRESIDENT TO SET THE PRECEDENT THAT OUR WOUNDED MEN AND WOMEN IN UNIFORM ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE MERE ANNOYANCE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO HAVE ANY MEDIA COVERAGE TO PRESENT IT.  hE CHOSE NOT TO GO SEE THEM NOT BECAUSE IT WAS PROTECTING THEM, BUT BECAUSE HE COULDN’T BE PHOTOGRAPHED VISITING THEM. 

AGAIN, HE DOES EVERYTHING FOR THE BENEFIT OF BARACK OBAMA.  NOT FOR THE BENEFIT OF HIS COUNTRY OR THOSE DEFENDING HER. 

READ THE FOLLOWING FOX NEWS REPORT FOR THE WHOLE STORY:

Okay, let’s all take a deep breath and remember how we all felt right after 9/11.  We loved George W. Bush for his strong and unwavering attitude to protect us from villians and terrorists. 

And the media loved him for it.  Below find his approval rating from May 2001 to March of 2003. 

Has America forgotten that he said on September 20, 2001 ”Americans are asking:  How will we fight and win this war?   We will direct every resource at our command — every means of diplomacy, every tool of intelligence, every instrument of law enforcement, every financial influence, and every necessary weapon of war — to the disruption and to the defeat of the global terror network. This war will not be like the war against Iraq a decade ago, with a decisive liberation of territory and a swift conclusion.  It will not look like the air war above Kosovo two years ago, where no ground troops were used and not a single American was lost in combat.  Our response involves far more than instant retaliation and isolated strikes.  Americans should not expect one battle, but a lengthy campaign, unlike any other we have ever seen.  It may include dramatic strikes, visible on TV, and covert operations, secret even in success.  We will starve terrorists of funding, turn them one against another, drive them from place to place, until there is no refuge or no rest.  And we will pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism.  Every nation, in every region, now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists.  (Applause.)  From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime. Our nation has been put on notice:  We are not immune from attack.  We will take defensive measures against terrorism to protect Americans.”

We were then, all for this war.  We all shared in the decision to begin it, and we applauded our President for his ability to stand strong and protect us.  But now, like small children who do not like to take responsibility for their decisions, many Americans (journalists included) are blaming the man that has protected our soil from futher terrorist action.  How soon the mighty forget.  As our President’s approval rating falls, take note America, you are voting also against yourself.  The below poll was done by The New York Times from 2001 – 2003.

Is your memory that short?
