In the simple-minded, bash-anything-Obama world of Fox News, the following is deemed to be razor sharp, inquisitive commentary.
“The President took a matter of hours to pick a commander in Afghanistan so why is it taking months to plug the leaking oil?” – Brian KilmeadeFox and Friends
…and five million idiots watching Fox stood up straight, scratched their heads in unison, grunted, shoved another ten Doritos into their face and asked, “Yeah, how come?” Then they burped, took a deep mind-numbing sniff of their armpits and slouched back into their rocking chairs. Life was good.

“The President took a matter of hours to pick a commander in Afghanistan so why is it taking months to plug the leaking oil?” – Brian Kilmeade Fox and Friends
Jeez what is wrong with these people! Its easy to pick a commander which has shown to be loyal to this country. Comparison is absurd!
Why don’t these “foxies” find a solution to the gulf and then they can open their mouths and criticize the President!
I am more concerned about the more subtle maligning of President Obama by mainstream media. Fox will show night after night all of the ugly sides to the radical right, but the mainstream media will often just package things in such a way with techniques like, always throwing in a question about Obama’s culpability in what ever issue that is going wrong in the country. Just the mere suggestion that the position of the presidency effects as many things as they discuss is false comparison. So many of the things are not the result of the administrative branch of government. In fact, most things are brought into play in our lives by the legislative branch of government. Yet, researching this area is more complex and requires more time and effort, is complex to present in a 2 minute segment, so it is just ignored. Just look for the noise, which there is no dearth of critics that will get in front of the cameras.
This is what I think is the most frustrating part of watching the political media coverage. I think that most of this is due to the corporate ownership of all mainstream media. Even PBS’s Week in Review is sponsored by Exon-Mobil.
Everyone on Fox & Friends are a JOKE, especially Brian Kilmeade! Dolts, all of them!

No matter what new tales FOX tells
What ails FOX News is Roger Ailes.

That sounds just about right.
FOX once again. How do they even come up with this nonsense?
