Fox News Hatred of Obama Knows No Bounds

[NYDem Observer]

I thought news was supposed to be fair and balanced but clearly they have an axe to grind. At this point, I think its fair to say that their entire focus is to smear Obama so that he can't win in the general election against their weak candidate. They post hate-filled lies or half-truths and then sit back and watch as their foolish followers, fall for it hook line and sinker. Here is the latest little nugget I came across.

The title reads:

Obama Campaign Removes New Black Panther Party Endorsement From Web Site
http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/03/19/obama-web-site-still-carries-new-black-panther-party-endorsement/comment-page-9/#comments

Yes he removed their endorsement but he never asked for it in the first place so this is hardly news, especially when the article admitted that anyone could go on the website and create a blog. Whats even worse though are the comments below, its absolutely mindblogging that Americans think like this. A couple of my favorites:

What if John McCain was being endorsed by the KKK of skinheads? Now how racist would that be? I am a white american who has lived in the South for all my life. Am I a racist? No! Every black person has the same opportunity as me when I received my diploma! If the NBPP wants to have their own country then let them go back to the poverty of Africa. As stated in some other posts what if the White’s hadnt brought Slaves over? Guess what you would still be in Africa! Good luck Barack but not this year buddy, you can think your pastor and radical groups like the NBPP for your lack of votes from now on!

SOUNDS LIKE OBAMA SHOULD BE RUNNING FOR THE PRESIDENCY OF LIBERIA, HE SHOULD TAKE THE BLACK PANTHER PARTY WITH HIM. OH YEA IT SUCKS TO LIVE IN AFRICA AND THESE SISSYFIED AMERICAN BLACKS WOULDNT LAST A WEEK THERE. THE BLACK PANTHERS SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE SLAVERY AND GENOCIDE IN AFRICA BEING DONE BY BLACK AFRICANS.
LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT.
AMERICA IS THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.


This is what we are up against in the general election, should be an interesting ride.

1. Of course they do. They're terrified of him.

[K Gardner]

2. That's' nothing. Have you read DU lately?

[New Dawn]

3. Fear is what causes hatred.

[depakid]

4. Pretty much a given

and the same would hold true against any other Democratic candidate....

[Liberal Veteran]

5. But magically, they suddenly LOVES them some Clinton.

And her supporters go "So?"

[NYDem Observer]

9. Thats another problem

Clinton is getting a free pass and in some aspects their supporting her because they are deathly afraid to run against him in the general election. unbelievable.

[woolldog]

11. Im not convince these comments aren't from Clinton supporters

Don't see much difference between these people and the Clinton supporters on DU.

[niceypoo]

18. And you wonder why 70% of Clinton supporters say they wouldnt vote for Obama...

...it is because of attitudes like yours.

[niceypoo]

17. Free pass? Republicans loving Clintons?

Where have you been the last 15 years?

[NYDem Observer]

20. Free pass when the decision is either Obama or Clinton

Their familiar with the Clinton playbook they've already set up their strategy for the general election against her. But Obama they certainly didn't see coming so now they are in a state of panic.

[Liberal Veteran]

21. Wow....you sure missed the point, didn't you?

I find it highly suspicious that suddenly Fox News and the right wing talking heads are somewhere between silent and actively promoting Clinton for the race.

It isn't because they LIKE the Clintons. They hate the Clintons like poison, but they also know that they have a much better shot at keeping the White House with Clinton as our candidate.

[Patsy Stone]

24. They aired a valentine to Bill the other day,

where he discussed his charity work -- for a loooong time. I had to check and see if my cable company had changed the line up. Last I checked, they HATED him.

That's a big old agenda, right there.

[thunder rising]

6. All that out of one good tooth.

[TwilightGardener]

7. If our stupid-ass cowardly nutless Superdelegates could see the

naked fear the Republicans have of Obama, by their constant attacks on him while leaving Hillary alone (or even promoting her as a better choice--yes, I heard Laura Ingraham recommend Hillary as a better candidate for Dems), they would make their goddamn move NOW, and allow Obama the Nominee to fight the GOP with a UNIFIED party behind him.

[Nitrogenica]

8. He makes them act even crazier and more extreme than they already are.

[Swamp Rat]

10. They hate Hillary Clinton too, but they are attempting to hide it for the moment.

Of course, they cannot contain their gleeful misogyny for very long.

[sellitman]

14. You banged this one out of the park !

Perhaps as his first act President Obama can enact the "Limbough law" ...making it a crime to tamper with elections from across the Isle.

[TexasLady]

12. I LOVE the smell of FEAR in the morning..

If they are talkin' about him, they are WORRIED about him.

[NYDem Observer]

15. Their fear was amped up tenfold after the speech yesterday.

Hannity & Co. have go on the offensive to the point where its painfully obvious that they're scared shitless.

[anamandujano]

19. Are you kidding? They are just sweeping up the remains in the

dust pan and finishing the job. They didn't even break a sweat with this, he gave them all the ammo.

[screembloodymurder]

23. WTF

This place is littered with trolls.

[onehandle]

13. I hope President Clinton or President Obama seizes their assets and deports them.

Nuke the little un-American hatemongers.

[niceypoo]

16. Ironically, the Black Panthers had nothing to do with racism, as the first post suggests...

...they formed to protect blacks from police brutality.

[LTR]

22. THE BLACK PANTHERS?

Jeez, these guys are still living in the 60s!
