Here’s an excellent example of the war on Fox News brought into better focus. 
 
The first link below, is commentary authored by Joe Klein of Time Magazine, in which he talks about Fox being hateful and seditious ,but as is usual from those on the left, says nothing specific or provides any examples of why he’s thinking what he’s thinking.  If anything, he seems to agree with Fox News in their contempt for Van Jones and ACORN in that Barack Obama should pick his associates with more care.  Other than that, he’s a blank slate merely picking up on Obama administration talking points with nothing to back any of it up.  You’d hope one of these leftists would actually challenge anything Fox News broadcasts, but they can’t be cause it’s all true.  It’s always just invective.
 
The other link is by Mark Steyn and you should read this and compare it to Joe Klein’s.  Very interesting considering they’re talking about the same war on Fox News. 
 
Let me know what you think.

What we have here is a political situation that compares favorably to that of a real dictatorship.  Think I’m nuts, or that I’m just an Obama hater?  Look at what’s going on around here:
 
Joe the Plumber criticizes Barack Obama and he’s investigated and marginalized by the Ohio state government and the fringe media,
 
Tea Partyers meet to criticize the federal government’s spending and tax policy and they’re called Anti-American, Nazi’s and worse and are marginalized by the Obama administration and the fringe media,
 
Town hall participants meet with their elected officials and are called thugs, “Astro-turf”, and all kinds of horrible things and are marginalized by the Obama administration and the fringe media,
 
Now the Obama administration has publically declared that Fox News is, in effect, an enemy of the state.  He has actually called a news organization “an enemy”.
 
People, no matter where your political allegiances are, you have to believe these are very bad things this administration is doing.
 
Not that long ago, at the height of the town hall meeting madness this past summer,  Barack Obama made a speech in which he said he wanted to mobilize against those criticizing his government, to have “his” people “get in their faces”.  And with that thousands of union members, ACORN representatives and others got on buses and stormed the town hall meetings (I was actually at such a meeting), disrupting the events and shouting down those that had come to meet their representatives.  The amazing part of that story was that by calling for a mobilization, a president could literally mobilize people like mobilizing an army to take untoward action.  Since when has a president had actual forces to mobilize?  This should scare the daylights out of you.  Who will his forces be mobilized against next?
