In all fairness I never really expected to see O's & Tricky Dicky's names in the same sentence...but I have a few times lately in regards to possibly having/putting together an "enemies of the state" list (hopefully I'm not on it...I try to be fair & balanced). Please note I'm not just referring to Fox, but also to the Insurance Industry, Wall St, & even some of our closest Allies including the UK, Israel, & key Eastern European countries.
This didn't work out too well for the Nixon admin & I'm hoping O has some street smarts to realize he's starting to piss off the wrong people(Allies, independent voters, moderate democrats, etc) & it's not working in his favor or making him look good. I really don't understand why he & his staff (look what Rahm Emanual said about Fox News...total moron & came off as a condescending jerk) are picking a fight with a News organization. I don't remember Bush & his admin boycotting the more liberal leaning media & they were vicious & out of line with their attacks. Dan Rather committed political suicide & destroyed his career by doing it.
By not going on Fox O is actually making them look stronger not weaker...does'nt he realize this?!? O'Reilly has been very fair to him & had a very good pre-election interview with him. I can understand if he doesn't want to go on Hannity...but there are plenty of others including O'Reilly that would be beneficial for him to speak with. Will they ask him some hard & challenging questions? Of course THEY WILL...it's THEIR JOB to ask tough questions & not pander to the government. The world via satellite TV & of course the Internet are watching all of this. Dictators suppress news & don't talk to those with other points of views(before they arrest &/or have them killed ie.. Putin, Chavez, the Mullahs of Iran). Presidents talk to all their people regardless if they voted for them or agree with their policies or not. I think it's time to step up & lead...not just talk about ideal hopes & dreams.
I'll save who he is playing naughty & nice for another time...
