Fox News has apparently been whinging that President Obama did not appear with them in the WH blitz to appear on all of the talking heads shows this Sunday morning.    Why would that be?  Here is the WH spokesman answering that to ABC news:

“We figured Fox would rather show ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ than broadcast an honest discussion about health insurance reform,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest told ABC News. […]

“Fox is an ideological outlet where the president has been interviewed before and will likely be interviewed again,” Earnest said. “Not that the whining particularly strengthens their case for participation any time soon.”

Nothing wrong with reminding people of the fact that Fox Noise continues to be the PR arm of the RNC. And nothing wrong in letting them live with their ideologically driven choices.

  2. Miscreant says:

    Brilliant strategy … making it appear as if it is some petty payback for not broadcasting the latest health care speech. It obfuscates the fact that our President doesn’t fare too well when the interview isn’t scripted in advance with softball questions.

  3. Bill Dunn says:

    So what did they do with all the questions DICK Chaney wrote for their mouthpiece to use in the interview?

    If true, it shouldn’t have happened then, and it shouldn’t happen now. Anyway, I heard that kind of argument doesn’t have credibility around here any more, Sparky.

    If the IRS is in charge of collecting the money… it’s a tax

  6. RICO says:

    Evil Neocon Max Baucus used his time machine this morning to go back and change the healthcare bill to say;

    “The consequence for not maintaining insurance would be an excise tax.”

    using a time machine to undermine the Dear Leader is just wrong.
