OBAMA RIPS FOX: ‘WE’RE GOING TO HAVE TO CHANGE HOW THE MEDIA REPORTS
Brietbart ^ | 5/12/15 | John Nolte

Posted on 05/13/2015 4:24:20 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

.....Speaking of Fox News, the poor, and the way GOP leaders think, Obama said, [W]e’re going to have to change how our body politic thinks, which means we’re going to have to change how the media reports on these issues.”

Here is the full transcript:

I think that the effort to suggest that the poor are sponges, leeches, don’t want to work, are lazy, are undeserving, got traction. And look, it’s still being propagated. I have to say that if you watch Fox News on a regular basis, it is a constant venue. They will find folks who make me mad. I don’t know where they find them. They’re all like, “I don’t want to work. I just want a free Obama Phone, or whatever.” And that becomes an entire narrative that gets worked up. And very rarely do you hear an interview of a waitress, which is much more typical — who is raising a couple of kids and doing everything right but still can’t pay the bills.

And so, if we’re going to change how Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) and Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) think, we’re going to have to change how our body politic thinks, which means we’re going to have to change how the media reports on these issues, and how people’s impressions of what it’s like to struggle in this economy looks like. And how budgets connect to that. And that’s a hard process because that requires a much broader conversation than typically we have on the nightly news.

Somehow we have to develop an alternate to the internet for easy and wide real-time communication. Hussein has taken over the internet and by this coming fall will be making some heavy handed changes and censorship on it. This speech by him is an announcement that he intends to take down Fox News. That attempt will be made well before the begining of the primaries and will probably be successful. By then there will not be any serious Congressional committee investigations. I expect to see conservative and even Republican finance sources- PACs and SuperPacs - walled off and their money sequestered or confiscated. I expect some heavy handed attacks on churches and tax exempt status removed and preachers and churches fined for their sermons that are not moslem of Marx friendly. All of this soon, in the next 14 months or so. Buy ammo. standardize.

I concur. SCOTUS is in their pocket, and the GOPe has been emasculated or they are willing collaborators.

Do not throw Valerie Jarrett into prison at taxpayer expense for 20 years.

Mary Lee is visiting NJ and NY right now. I'm sure she would appreciate a little protein contribution, as reports have indicated she might be pregnant.

Regarding the GOPe, I would go with a combination of both. The GOPe is a collaborator and they [GOPe] have emasculated and neutralized their dissents. On a side topic, If the implementation of Operation Jade Helm 15 was routine, The judas goats on this forum would not be working overtime to discredit those that are sounding the alarm.

But it isn’t enough.”

That perfectly illustrates how bad he is.

NOT THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT.

Look up in the Dictionary, “Abuse of Power” see picture of Obama.

Besides, how greedy of him. He has control of all the other networks.

He is scary.

I can't help but believe that he's laying the groundwork for implementing internet "fairness."

They will find folks who make me mad. I don’t know where they find them.

I do. They're in the communities you organized and the cities your fellow Democrats run.

You’re right. The “brains” behind the curtain.

Nope. Below I've posted a picture of the brains behind the Obozo administration:

That’s pretty good! I wrote this one in year two of the O intelligence blackout (posted it once on FR):

(to the music from “Paperback Writer”)

Dear Sir or Madam, have you met the prez
He’s for “hope & change”, at least that’s what he says
He’s known to hang out with some shady friends
But the media hid it
Now he wants to be a commie dictator, COMMIE DICTATOR!

It’s a dirty story, of a Marxist man
But the voters didn’t seem to understand
The productive citizens must pay the price
‘cuz there’s needy folks
and he wants to be a commie dictator, COMMIE DICTATOR!

Commie dictator…

It’s two thousand pages, give or take a few
It’s no good for Congress, but it’s GREAT for you!
The social healthcare will cost billions more
It took bribes and payoffs
But he wants to be a commie dictator, COMMIE DICTATOR!

The illegal ones demanding equal rights
If you try to fight it, you’re a racist white
They can rob and rape, and get free healthcare too
But he needs the votes
‘cuz he to be a commie dictator, COMMIE DICTATOR!

Commie dictator – commie dictator
Commie dictator – commie dictator
