Fair and Balanced?

President Hussein (since he wants to bring out his Muslim roots, that what I will be calling him from now on) wants fair and balanced reporting which is why he is trying to get Congress to pass the Fairness Doctrine that would require all media outlets (well not all. Only those with conservative viewpoints) to have equal programming of opposing views. When asked on CNBC this past weekend if he thought the media was being fair to him, he said he could not agree with that because there is this one television network that you would be hard pressed to find anything good about him on. The reporter then identified it as Fox News. One? Only one who calls into question anything Hussein does? Out of all the media markets out there, only one dares to ask questions? Give me a break!

It was reported this morning that CBS is going to do a piece on Hussein's health care reform from the White House. No commercials will be allowed during it and absolutely no commercials with a differing opinion will be allowed before or after it. Fair and balanced? Sounds like an infomercial for Hussein's socialist agenda.

Like sheep and cattle being led to slaughter, so are the media and blind followers of Hussein.

Oh, I forgot. We are dealing with God Hussein and he knows all and wants only what is best for all the world. Well, if Hussein is God, I'll take hell any day!
