They say you shouldn't bite the hand that feeds you. But the 44th President of the United States doesn't seem to be worried about that.

President Barack Obama, still with no fear of being overexposed, made the rounds on five Sunday morning talk shows on Sept. 20 to make another attempt at winning the hearts and minds over on his vague health care proposal.

According to Obama, it alleged he wasn't doing any "media-bashing," mention the three major cable news networks by name, saying they were the ones enabling the "rude" behavior that some of their on-air voices have decried by giving it so much attention.

Whining about the media.

The American people sure as heck didn't request Sunday become an "All Barack Hussein Day".

My TV stays off whenever I know he is gong to be on, just like my talk radio goes off on the straight up hour and bottom 1/2 hour newscasts, which he also hogs.

Thanks!! usually I do not watch Stephanopoulos due to the fact he is usually biased. This was great!

Maybe he ought to ask Pelosi why she is giving it so much attention

'The question is,’ said Barack Hussein, `which is to be master — that’s all.’

I used to be able to watch FOX with Wallace then go to Stephenopolis, but my local station has now put them on at the same time. Now Stephenopolis looses me watching so thanks for posting the transcript.

I can’t find anything in the Constitution OR the Ten Commandments about not being “rude”.

Proverbs; check the O.T.

[Verginius Rufus]

"Rude" has an honored history in America, as in "the rude bridge that arched the flood" at Concord.

Concord isn't that far from Harvard, where Obama got his law degree, but I doubt he would have wanted to go see a monument dedicated to Americans who were against paying taxes to an unresponsive government.
