Democrat: Fox News Is 'The Enemy,' Hates 'Working Men and Women' By Tim Graham Created 02/07/2012 - 7:19am
Ask Americans who the "enemy" is, and they might say Iran, or they might worry about communist China. But typically, liberals see the enemy in America. Congressman Bennie Thompson, Democrat of Mississippi, told the Communications Workers of America on February 1 they should watch the enemy in action (for 30 seconds) on Fox News Channel. (Well, he said "Fox TV," as if he doesn't know the difference with the Family Guy Network.)
"Every now and then, you have to look at the enemy. And I say just turn over and switch to Fox TV for 30 seconds, see what the enemy is doing, and switch right back. Because then you understand what the enemy is all about. Theyre absolutely against working men and women, so we have work to do." (Video below, via The Right Scoop)
The Communications Workers of America includes under its umbrella The Newspaper Guild, so think of this as the liberal media demonizing the conservative media. The CWA website included a warm article on Vice President Biden appearing on February 2: "Shortly before Bidens speech, the CWA Executive Board announced it was endorsing Obama-Biden for re-election after soliciting input from members online for nearly two months. TNG-CWA President Bernie Lunzer abstained from the vote, standard practice for the Guild with regard to political endorsements."
I thought it was a quote from my liberal brother.
No Fox is the Romney network.
Fox News aside, liberals view their domestic political opponents as their enemy before they’ll consider any foreign power or terrorist an enemy. They dont feel terrorists or foreign military powers threaten their grip on power.
Last I checked... the faux news was on the highway to hell, turning itself into a progressive channel... so you dim rat bastids can FOAD.

The Thralls in the Democrat party see politics as a crosstown high school rivalry. Politics is about getting the best person for a job and that person is the one who will get the most efficient and effective use out of the taxpayer’s hard-earned dollars.
Same ole liberal lies. Saying that conservatives hate children, animals, clean water, clean air. We all want to drink poluted dirty water and breath dirty air. Kill animals. Do not educate children. Bla, bla, bla.
Ironic. In China or Iran, he would have his house razed, himself and family slaughtered, his stock poisened, and land salted. Here in America, he can run, and be elected to a government post, to decree laws, and spout about the “enemy”.
Notable, because I also see the enemy right here in America. I'm a lot more worried about bastards like this guy than I am about some paleolithic rag-heads in Afghanistan.
Do they have a hotline to talk them down if they watch for more than 30 seconds?
Bfl
there aren’t any “working men and women” everybody is unemployed thanks to the socialist agenda
We make a big mistake when we think the left views us the same as we view them - as simply misguided or miseducated.
They view us from the communist viewpoint. We’re “infected” or “polluted” with bourgeois (conservative) values and the only cure is extermination.
They see their “road to utopia” plowed through the dead bodies of those who can’t think like a communist.
Oh wait, he meant Obama is the enemy of the working men and women. Nevermind.
Nice cotton field as background on his website.
Is this to remind his voting block that they are slaves?
Thompson's voting record has been decidedly liberal; he is arguably one of the most liberal congressmen ever to represent Mississippi. He is a founding member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. His legislative platform focuses mainly on homeland security, civil rights, agriculture and rural issues, equal education and health care reform. In 1975, he became one of the original plaintiffs in the Ayers Case, which concerned the adequate funding of predominantly black educational institutes in Mississippi. In 2000, Thompson wrote legislation that created the National Center for Minority Health and Health Care Disparities.
If you talk to the Whites in Mississippi they will tell you, ‘You can go to any school you want to; we don’t see race.’ Biggest lie ever told.

Yep......millions of dead.....unfortunately, “to each according to his needs”, often means that the leadership thinks you “need” a bullet to the brain.
