Obama Blamed His Popularity Woes On Fox News, According To New Book
Mediaite ^ | March 19, 2012 | Meenal Vamburkar

President Obama blamed some of this troubles on Fox News. Or so says a new book, detailing the president’s first term after the 2010 midterm elections through the beginning of 2012, by political journalist David Corn. In it, Corn writes that Obama felt the coverage on Fox was wreaking havoc on his standing with white males.

Specifically, in a private meeting with labor leaders in 2010, Obama reportedly said he was “losing white males” who watch Fox. From Politico:

“…Fed by Fox News, they hear Obama is a Muslim 24/7, and it begins to seep in…The Republicans have been at this for 40 years. They have new resources, but the strategy is old,” Corn recounted Obama as saying.

WHY IS THE STORY ABOUT MALIA OBAMA VACATIONING IN MEXICO DISAPPEARING FROM THE WEB?

Have you heard that Malia Obama, the president’s daughter, is reportedly spending her spring break in Oaxaca, Mexico? Allegedly, she’s jetting off with some of her classmates and 25 Secret Service agents to a country that the State Department has said all Americans should avoid. But something is different about the latest “Obama vacation controversy:” references to it are disappearing from the Internet — and fast.

Around 3:00 EST, a Telegraph story reporting on the event was the first to vanish (note how the url remains the same in the “before” and “after”):

Then he admits there are far more conservatives than there are liberals.

No one watching and accepting what Fox reports is a liberal.

Those white males are just a bunch of typical white bitter clingers. It has nothing to do with the effeminate, lying, corrupt, muslim loving, marxist in the White House.

If you go on the crazy Topix Foruns, you find most of the
young Commie leftist refer to FOX as FAUX News.
Just because FOX is not as Marxist as the old Radio Albania, it must be bad.
These people watch only PMSNBC and CNN (Commie News Network).

As for myself, I get sick of the leftist that are on FOX every day, but that is what makes it fair and balanced.
The Obots demand all socialist and radical left, all the time.

Grandma Toots speaking to 17 year old Barry: “Barry! Why haven’t you cleaned up your room?”

Barry: “My friends asked me to shoot some hoops. They said I would be a chicken if I didn’t.”

I’ve said it before but it bears repeating.

Fox news only kisses his ass once or twice a day while all the others smack it every few minutes.

No wonder the US’ enemies perceive him as weak. It’s not mere perception . . . this is sad.

I don’t get it - - Ubama thinks that if not for Fox News, Americans would embrace communism?
Ubama is a clueless POS, and I don’t need Fox News to tell me that.
