and, since 5 days after Jan. 20, 2009, Fox "News" has been calling Obama a socialist and berating his policies, and, in general, following The Big Lie theory: repeat a lie long enough and, in the hearts and minds of those exposed to Fox propaganda, the lie becomes t***h. Since five days after the guy first took office.
I didn't v**e for the guy-I wrote in Ron Paul (at least in 2012) but the spew coming from the likes of the Fox crowd has become so shrill, so dishonest, so much like propaganda masters throughout history, that it makes me sick.
If the guy cured cancer, Fox would berate Obama for putting doctors out of business. And you'll say "he is the cancer." how original.
Get a life. And prepare to have the Republicans screw up the next e******n despite the best efforts of Fox to spew propaganda and lies about wh**ever Democrat gets nomination.
Example of a Fox lie: When 60 Minutes ran a story about a British subject who claimed to be at the B******i compound when Ambassador Stevens was k**led, Fox pounded it collective chest, saying, "this is what we've been reporting since it happened."
When it turned out the guy was a fraud-and when 60 Minutes revealed that they'd been had by a fraud, that he was never near the compound, Fox has yet to announce it.
Nor has anyone screamed about the 11 foreign service workers who died between 2000-2009, nor the 24 who have died since 1980 nor the four contractors hired in 2004 to protect foreign service workers in Iraq who were themselves k**led and the burnt bodies hung from a bridget.
Typical lies from the propaganda arm of the Republican Party.

Creative bookkeeping. If you stop receiving an unemployment check for any reason, you are counted as employed. If you receive disability you are employed. If you are one of several million people who have had their hours cut to part time, you are employed. As of August 2013, 78% of the "new jobs created" were part time, mostly minimum wage. Whoopee. How's that hope and change working out for you?
