And this from the left
Diverse Issues in Higher Education ^ | Christopher metzler

Posted on 10/22/2009 7:02:04 PM PDT by Progressiveleader

Why does President Barack Obama’s White House continue to be mired in distraction? Since the president took office there has been Gates Gate; the international snub in Copenhagen, Denmark, after the president flew there overnight to make a bid for Chicago to host the 2016 Summer Olympics; the call for New York Gov. David Patterson not to seek election to a full term; and now the puerile decision to attack Fox News.

From the article:

Finally, some of you will no doubt conclude that this piece is a defense of Fox News. It is not. It is a defense of the right of critical thinkers to decide for ourselves what is fact and what is fiction without the imprimatur of the government.

A lefty who gets it. Thanks for posting. I otherwise may have missed the article.

If you read the article, it nails 0bama pretty well.

If you where actually a leader you would realize 0bama’s entire 4 years will be nothing but one distraction after another.

The whining child has NO accomplishments, will not have future accomplishments and will spend 4 years trying to hide his epic fail through distractions, all the while trying ineptly to make slaves of everyone to the government.

What an incredible mistake you liberals have wrought upon this country.

Now go away.

That’s exactly what I thought about the article.

There is definitely a shift away from Obama because a lot of people are realizing they were snookered with smooth talk and compliant media. I think this article proves the Dimwits are backing off from the fringe Maoists surrounding Obama.

Left, Right or Center—we need to protect and uphold Free speech and a free press. I was gratified to see that when the White House tried to bar Major Garrett/Fox News from access to the pay czar, the other networks didn’t go for it. They declined the interview unless Garrett was included. FINALLY, the press is showing some INDEPENDENCE!

This is a great first post.

Christopher Metzler is certainly not the luny left. Left but not Pelosi luny or anything like that.

This author sounds intellectually honest regarding Obama. He also doesn’t sound very “progressive” ...

He mentions the lack of “intellectual diversity” within the Obama Administration.

“Diversity”, in the vernacular of “progressives”, seems never to refer to anything aside from surface affectations, skin color, sexual preference, etc.

The LAST thing progressives seem to ever want is intellectual diversity, preferring instead a rainbow colored sea of collectivist identity politics drones.

I actually like the article. If this guy talks about race as forthrightly as he does about 0bama’s scattered policies it could be interesting.

Or it could be a blog pimp. I don’t know.

No zot from me.
