Rupert Murdoch and his Faux News netword have every right to refuse to air the president’s news conference touting his first 100 days in office.
The White House has every right to refuse to grant press credentials and access to the White House press area to “Fox News”, not out of any retaliation but ONLY because the company really does not meet the requirements to be defined or qualified and journalists.
Even now, when the president’s remarks haven’t been written, we all can predict the Fox News response and “analysis”. That’s not news, it certainly isn’t analysis, and it is even a response because it’s prepared BEFORE the statement it claims to be answering.
We have every right to boycott Murdoch's businesses and their subsidiaries and programs.
Well, it's been ten days since Barack Hussein Obama was elected President of the US of A.
Barack Obama is MY President-elect.
As I walk past the press kiosks I see enlarged magazine covers with My New President-elect smiling. I sillily smile back like a baby.
I have recieved acknowledgements from everyone I know --from the veteran of a war for independance, to the doctoral candidate, to the supermarket cashier. None of them American but all of them hopeful that change in America will also mean change in the world.
Already the transition team has stated that there will be criminal trials for Guantanamo POWs/criminals/ detainees. Other priorities include unblocking research on stem cells, stopping the drilling for oil in some environmentally sensitive areas, and allowing the state of California to tighten vehicle emission regulations.
....And it's only been ten days.
Okay, guys. Only a matter of days left until November 4th. It's time to do your part and really rally all those around you to vote for the Obama-Biden campaign. Do anything you can to elect the right person to the White House. I myself am not old enough to vote, but I am telling every adult in my life to vote for Obama, and I am not afraid to show my support for him frequently. PLEASE do the right thing and spread the word NOW. We don't have any time to waste.
Barack Rocks!
VObamaTE NOW!
100 days to get the issues out there!
Well, at least this year, the media hasn't decided that the most important issue to our country's safety and continued existence is guys kissing, or not kissing I guess it should be. So guys (and ladies if you so desire), go ahead, even the republicans are to scared to worry about you right now.
The things that matter are not only obvious, but being felt every single day by every American out there. We need to get out of Iraq. We need to stop telling other countries that we may go attack Iran. We need a clean energy policy that cuts, or even better, eliminates our dependency on foreign fuel sources that are funding, both directly and indirectly, the terrorists we are supposedly fighting. We need to regain the trust of the rest of the planet by electing a president who puts the country before his multi-national, bid-disliking, conglomerate buddies. We need a health care system that cares about us and not just "dolla dolla bill, ya'll". We need a president that will not tip the already lopsided Supreme Court right over the edge into fascism. This time, people already know that these issues are destroying our country. Surprise, Surprise, crude prices are falling and the price at the pumps isn't changing. The McCain health plan? Good luck! The McCain energy policy? same 'ol same 'ol. And McCain's plan in the Middle East? I bet if we tried really hard, we could start a bunch more wars. I love a good western movie as much as the next guy, but bombs aren't usually considered to be the first choice in your arsenal of diplomatic tools.
People don't have to agree with every single issue. The important thing to realize is that if you care about ANY of the issues, there is only one man who will deliver what our country needs and it's Barack Obama.
