Fox News Sunday Introduces "Obama Watch"

Obamawatch.png

There have been subtle and not so subtle messages to voters throughout this election painting Barack Obama as radical and un-American. Most recently, over the weekend, there was wide-spread media coverage of Obama's "anti-American" and "racial" reverend in Chicago.

But none of these are quite as dramatic as Fox's new "Obama Watch." If you aren't already convinced that Barack Obama is an extremist, you might want to tune in to Fox News Sunday. The new feature, announced by Chris Wallace, will give its viewers "a weekly update on Barack Obama." Under the auspices of the network's ongoing hopes to urge the Dems to debate on Fox, "Obama Watch" will be set to a ticking time clock a la 24. I'll give Fox News credit for one thing, they left no subliminal message unturned. If the beep beep, beep beep of Jack Bauer's hit show doesn't say "Obama is a terrorist" I don't know what does.

ok, i'm confused: doesn't the whole radical christian minister controversy completely dispel the rumor that obama is muslim? granted, only morons ever thought obama was muslin, but now -- given that he's got a very close, long-term relationship with a christian minister, however controversial -- wouldn't you have to be some sort of super-moron to still think he was muslim? doesn't one of these stories -- take your pick -- necessarily discount the other?

nmc: Yeah, that's what I thought too. But who wants to bother using their brain when Fox is right there thinking for you?

Obama never tried to convince his good buddy, pastor Wright, that his view were nutty. Therefore, he gave his consent to the views. Obama will not support Israel like Senator Clinton and Senator McCain.
