PL Booth, The Blue Eye View: So, the President has declared war against a particular news outlet because it has a "particular point of view."
DUH! They all do. It's just that Fox doesn't share the Liberal (Marxist, Communist, Socialist, Progressive, whatever) point-of-view but tends to be more neutral on more subjects than the other big three MSM networks actually having the chutzpah to disagree with the "Anointed One" over such things as health care, ACORN, and his Czars (advisors). I guess Foxes don't make good lap-dogs.
Maybe the reason Fox Network News viewer ratings have so rapidly overtaken the others is because the American Public is damned tired of being lied to and actually prefers to make up its own mind rather being told what to think.
Having connected the dots, we know that Mr's. Jones, Dunn, & Sunstein (Czars) et al actually were properly vetted. It's not that Obama's not familiar enough with their viewpoints; it's that he is. These people weren't chosen despite their views; they were chosen precisely because their views coincide with Obama's. If it walks like a communist, talks like a communist, and espouses state control in the name of "the people" like a communist, it's a communist. The MSM has yet to notice this fact.
However, in February of this year, Newsweek giddily proclaimed, "We are all socialists now!" Obama is no mere socialist. Socialists just want your money; communists want complete control of your life. The present Healthcare scheme will extend Federal Control over 60% of the US economy. It is funny that the MSM deny the Congressional Budget Office figures and conclusions but Fox doesn't.
Obama nationalized banks and car companies, fired the CEO of a major corporation, appointed ministers unaccountable to anyone but himself to set salaries for executives in private industry, castigated and threatened secured bondholders and ran roughshod over their contract rights in favor of political patronage, spent nearly a trillion dollars in "stimulus" legislation that was loaded with Democrap pork, proposed "cap-and-trade" legislation that will confiscate American wealth and transfer it to third world nations (many of whom are run by leftist dictators.) His 'pièce de résistance' is merely a government takeover of the entire health care industry in the United States, the legislative crowbar by which government will be forced into every aspect of our lives from birth to death.
All, BO has accomplished by deceit, trumped up indignation, and demonization of private enterprise and business leaders – classic Marxist propaganda. But that is not yet enough. Too many Americans oppose Obama's take over the American health care industry (54% according to the latest Rasmussen poll). Over 40% now "strongly disapprove" of Obama's performance as President. Hundreds of thousands have turned out at "tea parties," townhalls, and a march on Washington. Resistance is growing. And Fox News is reporting it! Of course the Marxists disapprove.
Obama knows Americans favor limited government, personal liberty, free market exchange, and individual responsibility. If we opt to get our news and commentary from outside the controlled press which cast him as "god" and pitch his statist agenda do adoringly, we might actually see what is happening to us. Every good communist knows a stranglehold on the media is required. BO has now launched a full-scale attack on Fox News and any other media refusing to toe his party line (the internet.)Obama's methodology is right out of the Marxist-Leninist playbook.
In the style of history's most talented dictators, Obama remains above the fray, having thugs, well-meaning but ignorant "social justice" Christians, leftist theorists, and political hacks make his arguments and do his dirty work for him. A good many of those constitute the MSM. Thank God at least some locally published papers are independent enough to avoid a total stranglehold.
And Thank God for such as Fox News and the Internet. I am very sure BO and his minions have secure plans to control the Internet, its contents, and any independent news or commentary sources just as quickly as they can snow the Liberal Democrats who share their agenda into allowing it.
There are still some who haven't yet reconciled Obama's admittedly leftist leanings with his reluctance to vocally support Iranian protestors, his shunning the Dalai Lama, his obsequious bow to the Saudi king, his embrace of Hugo Chavez, and his defense of ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya (whose disregard for the constraints of his own Honduran constitution was the reason for his ouster).
Anyone still struggling with the perceived inconsistency does not yet understand the differences between traditional liberalism and communism. Communists – like all utopian ideologues - are always, at their core, authoritarian. Professing to love and care for "the people" is a transparent cover for actual loathing of "the people" and complete disdain for individual choices, as Obama, his comrades in Congress, and his shills in the media have demonstrated toward Americans again and again. They consider representative government a farce and façade. It doesn't matter what you want; they know better than you and they should be in charge because they DO know better. Their modern moniker is "Progressive" but a commie by any other name is still a commie. A rose is a rose is a rose.
In times past, those accused of communist sympathies would deny it (because Communism was still a progenitor of the "Cold War"). Today's Marxists brazenly say, "Yes, we can!" Perhaps too many years have passed since we saw the last leftist barbarians starving, imprisoning, or slaughtering millions of their own people in fruitless pursuits of utopia. Remember, the press loved the Communist North Vietnamese and North Koreans in their days of conflict.
Perhaps Obama & Co. are being allowed to get away with this because our press views Obamunism as a "kinder, gentler" sort of progressivism than that responsible for the deaths of 100 million people in the past 90 years or so. Or perhaps people just cannot believe that a fatherless boy from a difficult background, a man willing to reveal all in heartfelt autobiographies (even if fiction), a gifted speaker inspiring such admiration – could possibly pose a threat to the (once) freest nation in the world.
This is foolhardy. The people Obama handpicked to advise him share his willful arrogance of human nature and sense of moral superiority. Those two traits, more than any others, power the "ends justify the means" ethos behind some of the very bloodiest excesses of human history. That same history is filled with examples where oppression was accompanied by inspiring tales of hardships overcome, ghost-written autobiographies, soaring rhetoric, and a population willing to enshrine their Leader as some godlike figure, witness NAZI Germany and Hitler.
Ultimately, the question should not be about Barack Obama the individual. He may be the kindest man one could hope to meet despite his Progressive Arrogance. The drafters of our Constitution understood something fundamental: the best protection against oppression lies in limited government, not the benevolent personality of whoever happens to be in office at the time. BO is no benevolent King.
Throwing away liberty simply because Obama seems like a basically decent guy is precisely what the Founding Fathers warned against. (And for the record, I personally place no confidence in a man who views our Constitution as "flawed," precisely because it limits his power.)
There were not very many who remarked with astonishment at a President whose inaugural address was themed around "remaking America" though some Fox Commentators DID! Millions wondered in breathless anticipation what this "remade" America could look like. Look at Obama's role models, and the role models of his appointees and political supporters, and you'll know. Obama's remade America would look like Cuba; North Korea; The former Soviet Union; Venezuela; Cambodia; Myanmar; China, and the Middle East.
"Communism" may be an outdated term. OK! Whatever you choose to call it – totalitarianism, authoritarianism, liberalism, progressivism, statism, libertarian paternalism – it is the same mindset. Like a virus, the change of name is merely a mutation of the same ideas threatening to destroy the body politic, even the idea of Liberty, itself. Never again vote for an incumbent Congressman.

Gary Kreep, Executive Director United States Justice Foundation P.S. This is the biggest political cover-up in American history! It would be so simple to release the documents to PROVE Obama is a natural-born citizen… IF THEY HAD THE DOCUMENTS! America has never before faced such a threat. Everything we hold dear is at risk with Barack Obama sitting as President without him releasing his actual birth certificate, plus the dozens of other documents that he refuses to produce. Please remember that we are also fighting in the California Appellate Court system on this same issue. And we are also working on legal strategies to challenge many of the laws that Barack Obama has signed into law. Barack Hussein Obama thinks he can get away with DUPING the American people and DESTROYING the U.S. Constitution. DON'T LET HIM DO IT!
