I'll be 50 this coming February, and I can't recall any administration acting like this before. Dear Leader is sooooo thin-skinned. There's one cable network that doesn't sing his praises 24/7, so they must be destroyed!!

Dobbs is no neocon. He probably won’t feel any more at home at FOX than CNN.

“is that it really is more of a wing of the Republican Party.”

The only one, I might add. The rest are Obama boot lickers.

I might as well dump my TV. We don’t have Fox.

They really are thin skinned! I thought the Clinton administration was touchy.

FoxNews must be hitting a nerve.

They can recruit damn near anyone as long as he/she replaces that insufferable Shep Smith.

Commies always act like this ... Pay attention to the food riots and media shake downs going on in venezuela right now for what the future holds for American Obammunism. Inflation is now clearing 30% in Venezuela as the government prints more and more money to give away.

A good place to start is http://laht.com/

Dobbs accomplishes more at CNN than he would at FOX.

The truth hurts and Fox news is painful to the Obama administration. The biggest pack of liars to ever hit Washington.

It isnt bad enough that Obama is a coward in National Politics , he is a personal coward as well. He hasnt the courage to face Fox News. Believe me I have seen enough of O’ Reilly to know that if he got Obama on his show , it would be a softball game and yet Obama cannot face him.

Actually, Obama has attacked Dobbs before. That's from May 2008.

What's more than a bit disturbing is that few people are interested in backing up Dobbs in ways that would blunt any attempts at a boycott. In case anyone wants to actually do something, sign up for MediaMatters and leave comments on their entries that lie/mislead/smear Dobbs, and do the same for other bloggers. And, help me show how Dobbs' other detractors are lying/smearing/just plain wrong.

Very few of the arguments offered by his detractors make any sense, but if no one is willing to do anything then the bad guys will win.

Dunn told CNN’s Howard Kurtz on Sunday. “And it’s not ideological. I mean, obviously there are many commentators who are conservative, liberal, centrist, and everybody understands that. What I think is fair to say about Fox is — and certainly the way we view it — is that it really is more of a wing of the Republican Party.”

OK, so you have two cable news channels and Obama God knows how many other newspapers licking the boots of the President.   The media is supposed to hold any politician accountable, not constantly licking their boots day in and day out.

Is Obama’s adminpstration now interpreting EVERY network decision FOX makes as ‘all part of a master plan’ to torment the white house - I mean anchors have been changing networks for decades now - is there no ‘normal’ industry reason that would prompt Dobbs to meet to discuss changing networks?

I agree with a poster on another thread who said that the white house is formallizing it’s objection to FOX, and claiming the network has declared war on the White House in order to set up their ‘case’ for the ‘Fairness Doctrine”
I wonder if Obama’s narcissism is contagious or did he surround himself with equally narcissistic people or enablers. Are there none among the Obama camp (higher up in the white house) who recoil at this behavior but can’t say so? Or were they all ‘assimilated’? (Borg reference)

BTW, it wasn’t long ago that Pelosi said dissent was the highest form of patriotism:

Fox is not a wing of RP. But, if it is, so what? Does it give license to the WH to 'discipline' them?

If Dobbs jumps the WH will get even wierder. Beck just had on Pat Cadell who identified himself as the youngest menmber of the Nixon enemies list. Pat had a strong warning against the Obama admin’s war on Fox.

Also note how successful various government official attacks on Rush have been.

If FOX News is a wing of the Republican party, what does that make MSNBC?

You’re a young whippersnapper compared to me, and I can’t recall a time like this either. I can’t even recall any tales from my parents that hold a candle to what’s going on now.

This is downright chilling. If Bush said this, you’d be able to hear the screams around the world.

Fox needs to do a report about the cloying and debased reporting of its competitors and how Hussain dislikes the true give and take of American public discourse.

GO-LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!!!

if he is quick tempered you can make a fool of him...

if your enemy is easily angered, then anger him more, so he his anger will cloud his judgement...
