Bret Baier Interviewing Obama Vs. Bret Baier Interviewing Bush

[MonarchSeniorCare]

Obama is the disgrace to this country.

[rmc21586]

fair and balanced.....ahahahahahahahaha­hahaha

[KoolCohen]

At the end when the Fox guy said " i'm tying to get the most for our buck here", Obama shouda simply have replied "Fuck you!"

[sandweezy]

@KoolCohen lol, I am sure he was saying that the whole interview in his head.

[wizardoflawz]

i thought Fox was anti-gay marriage. the way he was sucking Bush's dick you would think they were getting ready to go back in the green room and have some real fun.

[BrownDogProductions1]

You see, Bush wasn't 100% terrible.

[ButterflyDragon9]

About time someone asked Obama the hard questions instead of kissing his ass.

[sandweezy]

@ButterflyDragon9 how about letting him answer.....and why not ask Bush similar hard questions? because he WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO ANSWER THEM.

[hitmanhart670]

Bret Baier is another Partisan Hack on FauxNews. He tries to present the narrative that everything Obama and the Democrats do will harm this country, while he kisses the ass of anyone with an (R) next to their name. He's an absolute asshole with no integrity

[shahen13]

It's not a rammed health care bill - it is a campaign promise that Obama made and he lived up to it. In other words, he was elected to do exactly what he is doing. The Republicans lost the White House and seats everywhere because they were doing things no one wanted.

But you sound too stupid to understand all that.

[MWFrontier]

You cant compare the 2, 63 percent of people want republicans to fight the bill.

You have a conversation about a rammed health care bill, comared to Bush leaving office, As usualy grabbing for straws.

even if the interview was cushy to Bush, hmm? every prime time network wasnt so nice were they? 1 news channel to all the rest? again, reaching for straws

[DeadReality101]

@integral "take your meds and go back to sleep" wow, you have a future with this new government. Here, take some medication. Well make the guy down the street pay for it or if youre still a child, you know 26 years old or less, your mommy and daddy can pay for it. And dont worry about all these problems going on. Go to sleep and Ill take care of it. You can trust me. Say yes to change. And no to a future, I have never seen so many sheep in America. Lambs to the slaughter.

[DeadReality101]

Sorry but Obama's a tool. Don't know much about Fox, but you can watch any new station or read about it in the papers. Connect the dots people, do the damn research people and think for yourselves. Wake up and see whats happing to America. Learn to see 10 year, 20 years down the road.

[integral]

@DeadReality101 take yer meds and go back to sleep, pookie

[chromestarhustler]

wow moron, you want to compare a light interview done as bush prepares to leave office to one with the chosen one on the eve of the passing of the largest entitlement program ever? yeah the two situtions are of the same caliber and require the same hard nosed interview, dumbass. perhaps if you stop and think for a minute with that brain you keep saying you got you might come up with that conclusion on your own instead of rambling on in your koolaid trance.

[integral]

@chromestarhustler if your intent is to appear ridculous, congrats. You did it.

[marjade7]

FOX NOISE owned by an Australian! How American is that?

It's not.

[led4acs]

Brett Baier = Fox "news" model. And he's their so called anchor.

[teak43]

Baier's a hack. The White House needs to go back to ignoring Fox.

[JPhinfan86]

@teak43

I really do think this will have been a great thing. Every single time Fox wants to claim they're ignored to anyone who matters - The Obama Administration can simply point to the clip.

The smart man lets the idiot walk himself to his doom. Checkmate.

[smokinghot75]

@MissMoxie78 An you are about 8 years old or have your head up your ass for the past 50 years

[jhamm999]

@MissMoxie78 consistency check. would you take offense if the president were a republican and a msnbc reporter would have done it too?. if so see if you can find some of the times when sam donaldson interviewed reagan,and count how many times mes reagan was interrupted and take note that reagan did not take offense like obama seemed to. in 15 minutes if a reporter lets whoever they are interviewing talk as long as they want as they want they could run out the clock after 2 questions.

[abigmistakes]

It is very funny to see when media tries to make to bush look bad and obama is good. People this is a GAME. BE AWARE

[SurferJoe1]

Fox is a dedicated partisan group and no one should expect anything but this from them. Republicans talking points are hard news and official network policy to them. It's useless to even make the point anymore, but still sort of amazing to watch...

[FreeAgain2]

Could imagine the IRS and the GOV trying to manage Health Care on a National level -

God help us all.

[otownavi]

@FreeAgain2 guess who manages medicare? free guess. see if those old ppl want the govt to stop running it and giving it up to private hands.

[robm425]

THe Bush interview was at the end of the presidency it was over for Bush in the office. Thats why it was different

Lets see the Obama interview after its shown that he will not be president again 6 years from now if he makes it past 2012

Fox was asking the question people should care about to Obama. Too bad the average american would perfer to know Obama's sweet 16 bracket rather than his politics

[PatriotWatchUSA]

@robm425

AMEN you would of thought people would want an aswer instead o defending OBAMA bcause they feel he is untouchable

[jasong19711]

Obama is the worst "president" ever!

Oops, I mean Barry Soetoro, his REAL name.

[mikebyrd42069]

barry sucks

[PatriotWatchUSA]

@MissMoxie78 2% watch and .000002345% watch all te other libral networks put together.

Do you watch MSLSD or Jon Stewart?

[gothgod]

Interesting Fox News personalities have shown more respect not just for President Bush but also for the likes of Karl Rove,Bill Kristol,Dick Cheney, Condoleeza Rice, Alberto Gonzales and for the phony ACORN Pimp Guy than they have for president Obama in this interview at Fox . FOX is Murdoch's Propaganda Machine as Fox gears up hoping for more violence in the streets.FOX NEWS sees Obama as a Usurper & not the real or legitimate President they are still championing Birthers & Secret Muslim crap.

[PatriotWatchUSA]

@gothgod

2.7 trilionadded to national debt in 15 months

Gas $3.00 in Illinois this morning

73% of America does NO want ObamaAbortion

Troops still in Afghan & Iraq

Troops now in Syria & Pakistan

shut up troll and go put on your black capz

[incognito9887]

I'm sure Fox News will be just as easy on Obama in the final days of his presidency, late 2012.

[porsha1122]

look at all the fox fan boys lmao@uall look how hw lets Bush fly pass his Interview on the lighting part, and by the way go back and look how we got in this mess in the first place Buhsh was to busy playing the 9 hole go back and loook at his Interviews look at who he was in bed with on his oil co. start up thats right the man were so called hunting now Binladin his provider.....

[PatriotWatchUSA]

@porsha1122

Yes go back and see how e got into this mess. You mght learn something. Do you know who Fannie & Freddie Mac are? Do you fruit?

[TheSafecracker777]

Take the red pill

[DillonX]

and they kissed Bush's butt

[quizerry]

Obama doesn't stop his campaign mode unless you interrupt him. He rambles on and on and on if you let him. Brett had no choice if he wanted to get more then one question in.

[Frogger0neXx]

The interviewer is disrespecting Obama like crazy. No respect what so ever for the President of the United States. What an ass.

[PatriotWatchUSA]

@Frogger0neXx

Would be nice for the Prez to answer the question honestly but we have not demanded that from Obama since 2007 because you d not care about the truth.

Keep spending you liberal assholesz. 3.5 trillion in 15 months

[nsdtr01]

Baier is trying to get the most for whose buck? Baier = smuck

[PatriotWatchUSA]

@nsdtr01

Baier = balls

Obama = LIAR

[jhamm999]

@PatriotWatchUSA right on

[apple94702]

FAKE INTERVIEW!!! WOW

[suzielee74]

Fox news is really biased and most americans don't know that..

[PatriotWatchUSA]

@suzielee74 You are really stupid ad we all know that

[Wilshier]

holy shit, its awesome how this doesnt change my opinion of what the government is trying to do right now. high five ThinkProgress2

[dancagqui]

lets all pay taxes that go towards an army that only fights people. how bout an army to fight diseases. how much is that army costing us anyway. seems worth it i guess. god wouldnt love us if we werent doing all this right? couple disasters lately. i think we need to sacrifice some more people to please him

[PatriotWatchUSA]

@dancagqui NO GOD would prbably want Obama to take away our rights and money so Obama can take care of ourselves because we are hopeless.

P.S. How are our new wars in Pakisan and Syria. How is the troop removal coming. Whee is those dirty bitchesz at PINK

[idfa4]

Wow how weird that Bush actually granted interviews for a lengthy period of time and Obama won't unless it's one of the mainstream media lapdogs. This is the only hard interview our President has faced since his election. Every other interviewer throws soft balls at him. And has anyone noticed that Obama hasn't held a press conference in I don't know how long. I just know it is a longer period of time than Bush had without a press conference. I guess we will deal with Gibbs a little bit longer.

[jcub33]

I hope Brett interviews his Holiness the Pope and asks him about the latest scandals, since Bret is afterall, Catholic. He should be concerned.

What a douchebag of a reporter, he certainly didn't show that he didn't have an agenda.

[JesusIsRussian]

Bret is so religious he believes the 30million Americans who does'nt have healthcare can pray to Jesus and get healed

and what does Bret mean when he said"we're trying to make the most of our buck here"?does he means they badly need to squeeze-in advertisements during the interview?or he's scared of added taxes to support the needy Americans?but willing to donate a few cents to Haiti or Chili but not to New Orleans?this is confusing..i mean..the American mind is confusing!

[josepesca1]

I were Obama, I would have started at least two or three of my answers by saying something like this: Well, your question or concern is precisely what the Republicans say and campaing about and so on.

By doing this I would remind the audience that Fox is the propaganda machine of the republicans.

[Andolem]

Is this really journalism, what a jack ass.....

[iakny]

You know you are a douche bag when:

1- The President of the United States has to ask you to stop interrupting him when he is trying to answer your questions. That is true for any network and any President, not just Fox and Mr. Obama.

2- You work for Fox News, and your name is not Shepard Smith.

[MamoDad]

FUX News is a fraud!

Why are US taxpayer dollars used to pay for Fox Propaganda distributed over public airwaves?

[demsww08]

The more we observe Republican politicians and Foxs willingness to serve as merely a propaganda tool for the GOP, the more clearly we can see its underlying and collective efforts to de-legitimatize the Presidency of Barack Obama. Republicans and its tools in the media are truly sick and twisted puppies. All would be more comfortable, obviously, in a dictatorship with a police state. Maybe they should invade and take over Somalia.

[Wilshier]

and cbs and msnbc doesnt do the same thing for the democrats? both sides have there opinions and they are both going to show them inevitably. there is no such thing as unbiased media. it doesnt exist and it never will.

[smokinghot75]

@demsww08 bend over and kiss your own ass

[demsww08]

hammm999 :

First of all referring to Obama as a "messiah" is telling of itself. Secondly, the double standard the "reporter" to which the "reporter" held Obama is rather telling.

If jackass were really "fair and balanced" he would have asked W. about those WMD's in Iraq. Next up, how come W. put two wars and tax cuts for the rich on the nations credit card? Do deficits matter, Sir? The VP said they dont. Crickets chirped instead.

[jhamm999]

the term messiah was concerning the thought that obama's followers think that he can do no wrong. that is why you called baier racist. second baier only had a time frame of 15 minutes for the interview so he had to interrupt to keep things on schedule. how do you know he didn't ask about wmd's? all you saw was an edited version of the interview. yes i voted for bush twice and i blasted him and the repubs for spending likr libs. that is why they lost. like what is going to happen in nov.

[SourceCode2006]

god damn fox news is just beyond over the top.

[yt5454]

Fox "News" is the biggest pile of shit that has ever been broadcast in the history of television.

[elandres83]

jaja, he could not have said it any better at the very end, "... just trying to get the most for our buck here." Its rediculous!

[josepesca1]

Agree.

[gordonmcdowell]

The FOX interview was kinda unwatchable. I'm all for tough questions, but (Jon Stewart does this too) you got to let the interviewee ANSWER. A good interviewer is ready to challenge answers once their given, not interrupt with talking points.

[jhamm999]

well the difference is that one is a man deserving respect that the office carries and the other is barack obama.

[integral]

@jhamm999 if your intention was to make yourself look foolish, jh, then congrats, you've succeeded admirably.

[jhamm999]

@integral just stating facts my man

[filmacher]

Why is it a "waste of time" to point out that there's an entire news network functioning as 24/7 propaganda? To even compare the corruption and fraud of Fox News to any other media outlet in modern American history is ludicrous.

Compare Fox News to "Pravda." Or to the yellow journalism of William Randolph Hearst in the early 1900s. In the modern era, nothing compares.

[brid73]

What is a waste of time is when Left websites like Think Progress or Media Matters post heavily edited pieces like this to attack the messenger. Did you have a problem with Dan Rather or Sam Donaldson when they routinely interrupted or shout at Nixon/Regan? Or is that you don't like when a reporter questions your guy with your Lefty leanings. Obama was trying to "filibuster" his way out of the interview, and Baier wouldn't let him. How thinned skinned are you creeps.

[integral]

@brid73 "routinely interrupted or shout at Nixon/Regan"?

You just made it clear that you have no idea what you're talking about. (and work on your spelling, pookie)

[brid73]

Hey Sweetie, you are a fool to not know that Sam Donaldson routinely shouted at and interrupted President Reagan during press conferences and interviews. And Dan Rather cut his teeth in journalism for fighting contentiously with Nixon during press conferences. Know your history.

[Rockistan2008]

Asking "tough questions" doesn't mean continually interrupting the interviewee. The difference in tone between the two interviews is telling; the substance of the questions stunk in both interviews. The questions even in the W. interview were leading ones, or "yes/no" type questions. I don't get the sense that Baier has the capacity to improvise. He sticks to scripts. He would be a good prosecutor in a police state where low IQ is an asset. Absent that though he's a natural fit for Fox.

[shuushle]

I think Obama derserved this insult, because He went there.

[integral]

@shuushle your spelling and grammar are so horrible no one can tell what it is you're trying to say.

"Where" exactly did he go?

[LordXmen2k]

Fair and Balanced my @SS

[jgswallow]

FOX = propaganda arm of the GOP. This was like walking into a lions den.

[frigoria]

Bret Baier is a puppet

[jshooper]

faux has no shame AT ALL....and sadly the rest of the media (except msnbc) just plays along and doesn't point out their OBVIOUS agenda....and excessive attempts to attack and disrespect obama....CNN actually defends faux all the damn time....it's ridiculous....they actually parrot their talking points as if they are valid and aren't straight from republicans

[demsww08]

Baier revealed his truly despicable and racist colors. While he showered G.W. Bush's butt with kisses in previous interviews, the jackass reporter held President Obama to another standard. Jackass the reporter showered President Obama with right wing talking points. I guess jackass the reporter , Baier, or whatever his name is ,failed to mention the inconvenient fact that President Barack Hussein Obama won the Presidential election by a margin W. could have only dreamed about.

[jhamm999]

and what is racist about asking  tough questions to the messiah?

[Andolem]

its not about racism you idiot, its about true journalism, and respect for the president, moron.

[jhamm999]

@Andolem i didn't say it was stupid. i was

answering demswwo8. pay attention next time

time o.k. skippy?

[DefendGlenn]

What are Soros' butt-boys at TP trying to show here? The two situations are apples and oranges...

Bush was on his way out. Could do NOTHING. No impact whatsoever on the nation anymore.

Meanwhile, Obama is only 1 year in, and during 10% unemployment, with 60%+ of Americans wanting Congress to "start over" on healthcare, Obama is trying shove a massive takeover of 1/6th of the economy--using corrupt deals, and law-breaking "deems" and trickery.

Reality-based folks can see the difference.

[bigtexansfan]

This was such fucking bullshit and a total waste of the President's time. FAUX propaganda channel is a big fucking joke. Not once would this moronic fucktard ask a question and let the President answer. He didn't even have the journalistic skill to try and conduct what was his obvious attempt at an "ambush" interview. FAUX News Channel really should go into the Hardware business, cause they sure have enough "tools" for sale.

[sandweezy]

@bigtexansfan hahahahahahahahahaha "tools" nice bro.

[igypup]

Isn't Fox one of the outlets that keeps accusing Obama of lack of transparency? Like they were soooo concerned about Bush's secret everything, not. But here OBama tries to explain and shed a little light, and all he gets is verbal battering. Real fair of Fox isn't it?

[bigtexansfan]

@igypup - For real! I 8 years did Bush give MSNBC a interview?

[faithofthefoe]

They don't give a damn about "fair and balanced".

[avibard]

Fox is pure propaganda for the elite and a definite line of bullshit for the rest of us. Why don't people start calling them on their lame rhetoric? Fox news is noisy, unfair, and never balanced!

[JMorrisette]

Fox news is for people that never bother to check the facts.

[btc8128]

Disrespect, pure and simple, hes our president God Dam It! No one spoke to Bush like that! Ever! This was foul, I dont care who agrees with me!

[chagrinrick]

I actually don't blame Bret. He probably figured he was giving George as much as he could handle. And, you know....he was right.

[rmc21586]

Why are the other media outlets so scared to call Fox out on its blatant bias? Bret is just like all the other Fox "News" hosts/analyst, a tubby little conservative spewing republican talking points and pretending its journalism.

[elvis8pizza]

Because Fox makes them look good.

[joshaf26]

Fair and balanced my ass.
