“are sinking like a Titanic”

I wonder how many many among them are throwing temper tantrums, and how many are still stupidly ignorant, that they have steered themselves right at the iceberg.

They can't keep blaming Bush for their increasing failures and repulsion of better people; few are still so stupid as to accept the Bush-bashing this late. And they're impudent little kiddies, unsatisfied with an otherwise-adoring or obedient liberal media, which itself has concerns about stage-managing of press conference and the more lurid personality-cult and [lower-IQ-Dem] public opinion manipulation that is so obvious. They hate dissent and anything reminding them of their failures, and as Bush is vanishing as a demon and distraction they can “rely” on, now it's the evil Fox's turn to fulfill that role. Symbolism over substance, and deception and dishonesty over clarity and honesty, continues.

WH neophytes are now panicking is that Obama's poll numbers, even in the manipulated Post/ABC skewed attempt to alter reality, are sinking like a Titanic—Gibbs and Dunn are simply band members on the deck playing to keep the gullibles thinking the water ain't that cold where they're headed shortly to a one-term presidency. Dunn's idiocy in particular convinces only the choir—and of these, only the slowest members.

Obama is an iteration of Jimmy Carter, with history repeating this time as farce.

Whatever your feelings on Fox News, it’s not leadership for a Presidential administration to go after a major news channel simply because their slant doesn’t sit well with them.

To me that is the key point. Going after or refusing to deal with press that doesn't agree with you runs counter to our expectation that the media should not only report but be a watchdog for the people. Too many people are accepting of this because it's Obama and Fox, a president they like and a network they don't. This narrow kind of thinking will eventually backfire. Whenever you see an issue like this you need to think how it will play out when the players are switched. Presidents rewarding the media that agree with them and punishing ones that don't can only turn out badly.

Eugene Robinson could be right about the White House being crazy like a fox here. Or maybe it's a losing strategy, whatever… in any case, they have every right to call FOX out on what they do, which is heavily biased, partisan news-spin. It's no secret that objectivity isn't part of their game plan.

@@Of course I could be wrong…lol..@@ Oh, stop putting yourself down, Sil. That Cheney directs the CIA under Obama's nose is certainly not a far-fetched notion to rationale people.

Similarly, rationale people know that they can tune in or tune out of the Fox channel at their own whim, while they cannot exert control over the administration. Human nature dictates this was dumbness from his oneness.
The backstory proves this even more.

*Puts on wizard's cap*

Ahem...

It will be found that not only should the title of this article be reversed to Fox's curious war against the Whitehouse, but that Fox is a de facto arm of PSYOPS, which is not limited to military operations. Fox's more sophisticated sister station CNN you will recall played host to PSYOPS operatives and allowed them free run of the place to learn, among other things, how to manipulate satellite links:

Further *waves hand over crystal ball* it will be found that, like with the CIA, there is a special branch of PSYOPS that answers to this day not to our elected leaders but instead to Dick Cheney et al.

Fox is nothing but the dumber version of CNN. They both function as propaganda outlets for the agenda of very rich people in the far right of our political spectrum. MSNBC, instead of having a cohesive agenda, simply rebuts the extremism of the other two. It is the "nature seeks balance" natural reaction to the audacious spin spewed forth day after day from these two snakes of the same medusa's head.

Of course I could be wrong...lol..
