Obama says Fox News viewers are living on 'different planet'
Fox News ^ | 1/13/2018 | Hannity

Posted on 01/13/2018 6:25:15 AM PST by cq

Former President Barack Obama resurfaced on Friday and took a shot at Fox News viewers, saying they’re “living on a different planet” than people who consume mainstream media.

Obama made the remarks on the premiere of the new monthly Netflix series “My next guest needs no introduction with David Letterman,” which hit the streaming service on Friday morning. Early in the episode, Obama asked Letterman about his retirement but the veteran talk show host quickly let the former president know who was boss.

“Now here’s how this is gonna work. I’m gonna ask you stuff, and then you respond to stuff,” Letterman joked.

Letterman then asked Obama what he considers the more dangerous threat to a democracy, the president demeaning the press or a foreign power sabotaging the voting process. Both options are clearly jabs at President Trump and Obama answered without mentioning the current president’s name.

“One of the biggest challenges we have to our democracy is the degree to which we don’t share a common baseline of facts,” Obama said. "If you watch Fox News, you are living on a different planet than you are if you are listening to NPR.”

The pot calling the kettle black. Obama needs a time machine so he can go back to the days of his hero Joseph Stalin.

So you can wildly differentiate Americans by their tv viewing habits, but you can’t identify third world countries as being incredibly different?

If only it were true. But, like every other word out of the Bat-Eared Bolshevik’s fly encrusted mouth, it is a lie.

Yes. That planet is the real world with one media outlet not filled with lies, distortion, and in step with a double dealing President and his associates.
Obama should be seen as the corrupt faker he is

Rastafarianism was started by worshiping Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia as Jah, Since he was the first black leader in an African country.
Reggie music is often used as "Hymnals" about Jah.
When Obama was elected I wondered if Obama would ever get such a following but instead of Reggie it would be rap.

Why, yes, yes, we ARE living on a different planet.

It is called “Earth”, not Bizarro World. The cube shaped planet known as “htraE” is a sort of badly distorted “mirror image” of the “Earth” of this dimension.

‘Democracy’ or Mobocracy same to the leftists. A dumb mass majority can dictate. There needs only to be someone to point the direction. The Obama crowd does not believe in protecting and preserving the Constitution of the United States of America. They don’t believe in individual liberty and economic freedom not Private Property Rights.
There’s little we have in common on our core beliefs. Proven when the ‘Progressives’ post , “that’s not who we are” to common sense.
