If the president wasn't Barak Obama and was some white southern president and he had throughout his administration and in the white house appointed individuals who had praised or even belonged to the KKK or any kind of white supremacy,or hate group.

Do you think there would be attention paid to that ? Do you think there should be attention paid to that ?

Do you think we should know their names and their backgrounds ?

Do you think the president should be asked why he would appoint such people to his administration ?

Do you think it's healthy for the country to have such people in Gov. ?

I think it's obvious that it would be a major scandal, and it should be...

Now what about a president who has throughout his administration has appointees who quotes and praises Mao Tse Tung as one of their favorite philosophers ( Anita Dunn and Ron Bloom) or embraces Marxism ?

Or what about a person who is an advocate of Transnationalism (Harold Koh) which is defined as being a concept that argues in favor of Global Governance as opposed to the Constitutional Sovereignty of an independent nation or state.

Cass Susstien - Who believes that hunting should be banned ( 2nd amendment ) and thinks animals should have the right to sue people and wants to put in place the fairness doctrine.

John P. Holdren (science czar ) strong believer in Eugenics, forced abortions, Mass sterilization,Drugs put into our drinking water.. just go read some of his quotes from the book he co authored Eco-Science

Head of the FTC Mark Loyd- Who wants to regulate the internet and wants the fairness doctrine and praises Hugo Chevez for censoring the media in Venezuela ?

The list goes on and on..

    the only one of your examples that even comes close to hate groups like the KKK is the guy advocating sterilization and eugenics, and i've looked into those claims and they're vastly overblown.

    While I'm not arguing that some of the people in the Obama Administration has some views that I disagree with, the clearly out-of-context examples that the Becks, Hannitys and the right wing blogs are hitching their wagons too are a joke...

    The most recent Anita Dunn thing is a perfect example... if you watch the whole thing in context, it's obvious that she is saying the whole Mao Tse Tung/Mother Theresa thing as a joke in a speech... I guess anyone who makes a joke in a college graduation speech or whatever can no longer try to put humor in it, for fear that someday they want to work in government.

    And the Cass Susstien criticism... lambasting him for out of context things in books he has written or only edited is grasping at straws on all levels. And he is against hunting? so are a lot of people, I don't agree with it, but if some guy who works in a paper-pushing government department that has absolutely NOTHING to do with gun control or animal rights policy, then what do I care? That would be like saying and accountant is bad because of his stance on abortion.

    But what does Cass Sunstein's animal rights views have to do with his position in the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs?

    that was my first reaction as well. i was going to comment but there were too many questions for me to research and think critically enough to answer right now.

    you disagree? so you think someone that is opposed to hunting is as bad and dangerous as someone wearing a white robe and lynching minorities?

    actually most of this is all hypothetical. how are we supposed to have an opinion or be able to judge the public's and the media's attention or inattention paid to some of these hypothetical situations? for one, a person from the old south is probably not going to win the presidency any time in the next 20 years unless their views come drastically more to the middle. the positions of those from the right and the south as a whole are out of touch with mainstream america so all of this is hypothetical and i see no point in putting any effort into it.

    Maybe this is a left-wing conspiracy to dismantle the republican party. I mean come on, who can actually take this Glenn Beck crap seriously with this sort of ignorant paranoia and propaganda? Doesn't it just turn off most people from that side of the aisle or from politics altogether?

    Then again, I see that he has really good ratings.

    I guess I should remind myself to "think about how stupid the average person is, then remember that half of the people are more stupid than that."

    exactly.
    as to the validity of the claims in the OP, won't even bother....but you are comparing appels and oranges, really...outside of this one.

    being anti-hunting isn't exactly a 'hate group'.....nor are any of the other examples presented. differing ideas on law and government ARE allowable in a democracy.

    My reaction, exactly.
    In my dealings with the person who originated this... he has no clue who most of these people are (if any) and has nothing to back up his claim... other than, "I heard it on the Rush Limbaugh show" or "FOX did a story on this".

    Aside from the eugenics thing (which I already talked about), nothing you listed in your op really bothers me. Maybe you'll be waking up all pissed off one day, but if I woke up one day to a country with a media free of special interests buying the news and national health care, i'd be pretty pleased.

    What about the President of the United States trying to dictate what is news and who is allowed to report it. Anyone can see this Presidency is getting out of hand. Who the hell does he think he is shutting out fox from the press pool. I have to say I was impressed with the other news stations standing up for Free Press! Freedom is something Obama does not understand!

    He hasn't done that. He told Fox to go fuck themselves, a sentiment I readily agree with as Foxnews is a shining example of why a fairness doctrine isn't such a bad idea.

    So your not for free press? and yes they said Fox could not interview the pay czar. Even the other news outlets saw how wrong this was wrong. The Fairness doctrine was written when there were only so many media outlets... in no way could it work today with out a dictatorship in controll.

    i am all for a free press, but fox news is not the press. it is not even news. it is the propaganda arm of the gop. why would obama go on fox if they would only broadcast snippets of what he says, take it out of context, and put a negative or "scary" spin on it? why would he even indulge them in their games? he called them out on their M.O. and they did not like it. now they are pissing and moaning about it.

    by the way, do you even know what the fairness doctrine is?

    potentially, i might be giving the fox News network audience too much credit, but, maybe if they were so interested in what the president had to say, they could just mosey on over to one of the other channels that he appears on. It's not that hard. just a thought, of course.

    fox has made decision after decision, not to air Obama's primetime addresses on their network. why should Obama dignify them with his presence? They are a 24/7 anti-Obama outlet. They have aired everything they can against him. also, do you think he has forgotten the comments made by Liz Trotta? the network was more than happy to air that. what are your thoughts on her little episode, and the fact the network allowed it to air?

    all i can say is, that if anyone has difficulty understanding why obama would be reluctant to appear on fox news, then any connection between your reality and mine, is purely coincidental.

    all i can say is, that if anyone has difficulty understanding why obama would be reluctant to appear on fox news, then any connection between your reality and mine, is purely coincidental.[/quote]



    Obama did give Fox an interview (O'Riley). I am talking about not letting Fox interview the pay czar which was wrong and the rest of the media knew it was wrong....and they know it could happen to them....so they stood up and said they were not going to do the interview if Fox was not allowed. The media knows they could be next....

    What about the President of the United States trying to dictate what is news and who is allowed to report it. Anyone can see this Presidency is getting out of hand. Who the hell does he think he is shutting out fox from the press pool. I have to say I was impressed with the other news stations standing up for Free Press! Freedom is something Obama does not understand!

    So should Obama talk to everyone? What about the National Enquirer?[/quote]
    Obama wants to pick and choose what news will be reported. No one is talking about Obama doing an interview.
