Obama - Breaking and Entering

Odd cable television goings on
Obama acknowledges only FNC is actually a news channel

"On demand" movies are offerings kept in a library by premium movie channels, like HBO, for their subscribers to watch at their leisure.  Last night we were watching  one, "Baby Mama," when our reverie was interrupted by the visage of  ass-clown President Zero prancing about, reading a speech.  WTF? 

This was no case of an errant finger hitting a remote control button by mistake, because attempts to  move off whatever channel we were watching brought the prompt "Are you sure you want to stop watching Baby Mama?"  Only when I  clicked  "YES" did that awful man leave our home.  By going back through the menu we were able to resume watching Baby Mama from the point it was so rudely interrupted.  We do not think this was an accident.  It sounds like something an Obama cultist working for Time-Warner would do.

Anyway, the prince of darkness was indeed reading scripts off his teleprompter last night. Here's a telling portion of it, as described by Politico.
At his 100th-day town hall meeting in St. Louis Wednesday, President Barack Obama took direct aim at the anti-tax “tea party” demonstrations that have cropped up over the last month and took a veiled shot at the Fox News Channel, the cable news network closely associated with the protests.

Asked about fiscal discipline and entitlements reform, Obama seemed to be repressing a smile as he jabbed critics of his spending plans.

"Those of you who are watching certain news channels  on which I'm not very popular, and you see folks waving tea bags around, Obama said, “let me just remind them that I am happy to have a serious conversation about how we are going to cut our health care costs down over the long term, how we are going to stabilize Social Security.”

“But,” Obama continued, “let's not play games and pretend that the reason [for the deficit] is because of the Recovery Act." 
Implicit, therein, is acknowledgment by the pretender president that FNC covered news of the recent, massively attended  tea party demonstrations, while the others did not.  Which  implicitly underscores the known fact that those others are not "news" channels at all, but adjuncts of the DNC's agitprop services dept..   Glad that's settled, eh-wot?

I turned the TV off last night to avoid the love-fest.

Fox'n'Friend's this morning say that FoxNews was the one network not allowed to ask a question.

He's smiling because he finds it funny just how much he is allowed to get away with.

The joke's on us.

Calling him the prince of darkness is giving him way too much effect.
I was on Little Green Footballs recently and misread something as "discount messiah" and it kind of resonated.

Bet me. My serious discussion would center on cutting the size of the spend and tax Federal Bureaucracy, not coming up with more ways to to make everything else more expensive, CSSMF.
