He could have walked on the beach without the press taking a picture of him getting his feet wet.

Goddammit Barack Nixon Obama!

Obama, you dolt!

News item: Administration asks Youtube to remove controversial film on Islam

The hilarious thing is that the same people who are just wild about this guy's right to make a film to incite violence quickly change their tune if you suggest to them that the people behind it might be Muslims trying to incite violence. Then they want whoever is responsible thrown into a pit of snakes with no trial.

DjangoStonereaver: One can only imagine how Fox would have covered the Watergate affair...

"In other news, two Mainstream Liberal Media journalists at the Washington Post are trying to suggest that the current administration, which you'll remember won in a landslide in 1972, is covering up election shenanigans based on a source named after a porn star."

Summary: DERP!

Obama's and Nixon's policies are actually quite close ideologically except Nixon was a bit farther left. Where the two diverge is that Obama isn't a paranoid racist with a chip on his shoulder.

How delusional was that? I'd hate to live in that state of mind.

Never before has someone so accurately transcribed all of the quotes you see on crazy people's vans.

A system of government based on the teachings of Milton Friedman?

Huh. Before I noticed the Tardhall tag, I thought that this was going to be about the Romney/Ryan bullshiat-a-thon and how they've been getting away with lies that Kim Jong-Il's corpse would call unrealistic.

We don't have a press that is necessarily on Obama's side. We have a press that is just plain lazy, copying others' stories (or worse, blogs) without so much as a cursory fact-check. Couple that with the latest trend in "report on both side's of the issue and let the reader decide" and you have "journalists" who are completely useless. In many cases, both sides do not warrant equal attention and merit.

You know, before I clicked the link and realized it was Townhall (on mobile), I had assumed it was about Romney's campaign.

Shawn Mitchell is the Michele Bachmann/Rick Santorum of the Colorado State Senate. He's the tooliest of tools, the jerkiest of jerks.

lol wat

/Nixon had a machine of corruption. He was also a paranoid racist asshole.

So cute and ignorant how the fark left still believes the press isn't in the bag for Obama. Last week they pushed the Obama campaign meme of Romney for being evil on criticizing the Cairo memo and then kept pushing the film as the reason for even Libya even though al Qaeda said it was a response to drive strikes and was obviously pre meditated. Only CNN finally picked up the fact that there was advance notice of Libya. But no, have to push the blame solely on an unwatched movie, that way Obama gets no blame for foreign policy.

Someone broke the projector.

It's like clockwork, isn't it? Every negative attribute they assign to "the other team" is inherently already their's.

Every danger they claim the left will bring is actually stuff the right embraces.

"You'll get nothing from me about Haldeman."

Isn't it crazy how Fox News, the conservative news(optional) network, is always touting how many people watch its programming every night, and it's the juggernaut King Shiat of Fark Mountain, and yet they can't seem to ever be dignified as the mainstream media? How is it, again, that Harper's Bazaar or Mother Jones have that much pull when Fox News is beating test patterns, farm reports, and "Mama's Family" reruns on a consistent basis?

So if Obama is the nig...new Nixon, does that mean Nixon is bad?

The funny/sad/stupid thing is that Obama is to the Right of Nixon on pretty much everything.

What's a "drive strike"?

I'm gonna guess he meant "drone strike"?

He does have a point that the press has been lame and lazy for just sticking with the "they did it because of this video" without any analysis or further thought to it.

I haven't even heard one mainstream source mention the obvious dubbing of every reference to Mohammed or Islam and what that may mean.

Obama is to the right of Nixon anyway.

The Post was pretty much a second rate, locally focussed paper in 1972, and the NYT didn't exactly push the story either.

Historical revisionism in MY right wing blogosphere?

Obama is covertly working to overthrow democratically elected governments because he doesn't agree with their ideology?

I had no idea! This man is a monster!

dervish16108: Obama is to the right of Nixon anyway.

This bears repeating.

Because People in power are Stupid: unrea
