Thank you for calling out this BS. Racism and misogyny--another twofer from Fox News.

Also, it's a "subtle" reminder that Obama was raised by a SINGLE MOTHER (even though she was married to Obama's father.)

Fox and it's advertisers need a wake-up call.

Clips like the one in this article don't surprise me anymore, that's what Faux News specializes in. If any "reptuable" news media outlet has the guff to call a commonplace fist pound that's been popular for more than twenty years a "terrorist fist jab" when done by Obama and wife, than of course they shouldn't be taken seriously. Racist fear-mongering and propaganda is too easy for them, especially when they have token self-hating minorities like Michelle Malkin supporting their agenda so the white fat cats at Fox can say "we're not racist, we have this asian woman helping us shit mercilessly on people of color while disguising it as news!"

How any woman of Asian descent can write a 300 + page paperweight on how the internment of Japanese, Korean, and Chinese people in the U.S. was not only humane, but justified is beyond me. It's almost as if she truly believes that if she were alive back then, she wouldn't of been looking at the rest of the world from behind those barbed wire fences like everyone else that looked like her at the time.

Like many things, if you don't watch it, it loses it's power. Maybe not over everyone else, but then again, if you're watching Fox news to get news, you lost.

I, for one, am glad that Fox News is so out-of-control and in hysterics that they are forgetting the niceties. LET them continue this. LET the Republicans continue to defend them. That way Americans can see what so many of us have been saying, lo these many years now; that the Conservative movement is a haven for racists who have simply gotten smart enough to try to keep it under wraps. This is how conservatives talk about people of color when they're not in the room. It's about time that these folks were exposed for what they are. The beauty of it is that they are doing it to themselves and they just can't help themselves!


Cheers
A

Now, to be FAIR AND BALANCED (as well as factually accurate) FOX should begin referring to Cindy McCain as John McCain's "ex-mistress"....

Oh, right, can't do that... might show liberal bias in the media... *snort!*

Fox News apologized to avoid a lawsuit for slander and defamation of character. But it's like the trial lawyer who asks a leading and prejudicial question of a witness, to which the Defense lawyer immediately objects, but before the judge can speak, the Prosecuting lawyer says "Withdrawn." - but the Jury has already heard it. In this case, however, I think Fox News, by once again disgracing itself, may actually produce more sympathy and respect for Michelle Obama and her husband than any of the sickly racist suspicions Black Americans have been routinely subjected to for 300 years. So, right on Michelle and Barack!

Frankly i am glad that the corporate mind control machine has not got it. All of this senseless negativity is counter productive to their cause. This country is so tired of pretending that racism does not exist. We all know its does regardless of what your status in life is. If its not a race thing, its class, or religion. They will use any tool to keep the nation devided. Today corporate america is treating every one the same in terms of abuse. They outsource our jobs, they pay off congress to pass trade agreements that are unfair to any worker. If you dont take sell money they simply take your job outside the country. America is divided into 2 countries those who have and those who dont. Now that white people are being treated and abused like people of color they are beginning to reconize that we are all in the same boat. In the 1950's a man could feed his family, send his kids to college,and pay for a home. Today because of a system of direct economic enslavement we cant do anything but work harder and die younger. The american worker has been under attack for more over 5 decades. Today the quality of everything is going down, but corporate profits are going up. We allow corporations to get away without paying taxes. They blackmail the local governments into thinking tax incentives are a good thing, then give low paying jobs to the city. If you dont pay your taxes the IRS will ruin your life, but big business wont pay their fair share of taxes, so now the lost revenue will have to be passed on to the same people of the community once again eroding their income. Instead of the worker earning 20,000 a year his taxes goes up 5,000 a year reducing his or her earnings to 15,000 a year. ARTICLE 5 of the Preamble of our Constitution reads like this. TO PROMOTE THE GENERAL WELFARE - to help provide a higher standard of living for the people of the United states through better government. The founding Fathers are clearly saying its the job of both houses to provide a higher standard of life for the American worker, we have got to get beyond Democrate or Republican and remove anyone who does not do the people's work, i dont give a damn who they are. The phamacuticl companies are just as bad as the oil companies. Even the FBI cant stop these companies. Now that Bush has created that bogus Office of Homeland security, We have allowed them to take total control of our country, to enslave us and to pass laws making it a act of terrorism to complain about it. Cops killing kids for misdermeanors, toddlers being arrested in kindergarten, you cant spank your kids at home, you cant spank them at school and you wonder why they are building prisons. Fox news will wont talk about real stories, but they wont talk about where the oil is going thats leaving Iraq, they wont, talk about gas in Venezuela costing 12 cents a gallon. They tell us what they want us to know and what to think. I am so proud of the younger generation because they can see we are all in the same boat, and they are willing to vote for CHANGE, where the older generation wont vote for anything other than the same old load of crapp. Remember divide and conquer While we fight about racism,gay rights,abortion or boarder security, corporations are laughing all the way to the bank.

Of course the bobble head dolls at FAUX News can redeem themselves by simply referring to Cindy McCain as John McCain's "baby momma".

Ideally, Milkin, O'Rielly, Hannity and comedian Rush Limbaugh would hold their collective breaths waiting for that to happen.

The other day,FRONTLINE came out with that genocide crap in Sudan and their presentation made me so sick I had to change the channel. The US has been trying to make a case of genocide while arming the rebels and attacking the legitimate government. They want to split the country up into two new governments so that they can take control of the oil in the South and take away the contracts that China and the Government have. They keep harboring on genocide while the rest of the world is trying to figure out what they are talking about. The rebels in the south have caused an exodus of thehir own people to CHAD and the men are roaming the desert in US military equipment attacking and ambushing every time they get a chance. But, Frontline is pushing propoganda for the Administration to promote the arguement that the recognized government of Sudan is purposely committing atrocities against its own people for no reason at all; The US wants to make two governments out of Sudan and strip Sudan of its oil rights. That is what it is all about. But will any of the television stations explain this? No.

And, where have you heard any of these television stations explaining extraterritoriality which essentially allows America to operate as an independent state within the confines of another independent state as they used to in China before 1949? The US is forcing Iraq to sign over their sovereignty to the US and not a word of this is coming out in the media?

We have a sick media, ladies and gentlement. It is not just FOX. They are the leader of the Pack of SICKOS.

Fox is just going a little further down the racist trail pioneered by Bill and Hillary Clinton. The GOP is going to go as far as they can on this trail; from Willie Horton to islamophobia to same sex marriage - they've done it all.

The problem is not just that it’s going be an ugly campaign, but that it’s already on track to be a dangerous election season for African Americans, immigrant workers and the GLBT communities. That's because the Democrats, in order to pander to bigot votes, junked the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes bill after it'd passed both houses of Congress. Too bad Obama and the other Dem who demand our allegiance and votes because they're our “friends” didn’t lift a finger to help us when that happened, but what would all the christian bigots have said if he’d had the guts to go out on a limb for us.

Ironic? Yes, but not in a funny way. Same old, same old.

It's very clear that the only thing that Faux News and Rupert Murdoch respect is the almighty dollar. Can a boycott turn off their racist rants--or would it just lead to the likes of Hannity & Co. getting all self-righteous about free speech?

Why is it said the jab is only twenty years old?
I was using the slap and jab fifty years ago with my friends.
I am a Cracker, i wonder if Fox news knows what a cracker is.
I lived in a "Negro" nieghborhood then and was the only cracker in the entire school.
Because of that i was called a "Whigger" by other "Whites".
My first girlfriends were black, all my friends were.
They and their parents were welcome at our home and we were often invited to their homes.
It was a very close nit community.
I remember those few years with fondness.
Now things are really ugly, the media and Government are working hard dividing us, they have been doing so for years.
I first realized that when i was in the civil rights movement in the 60s.
As long as the poor and middle class fight each other the rich can do whatever they please.
Think about it, how many rich are in prison? A few. How many middle class? A million, How many poor? Three million.
The Media and Government are winning the game because we have allowed them to.
We are to busy fighting each other and trying to keep each other down.
My late Fatherinlaw who was black told me of an incident which happened years ago.
He worked as a laborer, his white foreman asked him once why do all the best businesses and banks belong to the Jews?
Why cant i get ahead like them?
My Fatherinlaw laid on the ground and told his foreman to put his foot on him.
The white man said i do not want to do that! but Ezra insisted.
When he did, Ezra told him you white people are so busy trying to keep us negro's down, you miss the oportunities to get ahead.
This is still true today, as it was forty years ago.
