Who's in this list? Because if it's only Fox News, then that's not much of a "list".

[jamesmaseobrown]

Conservatives don't like to be called out. They want to have enemy list, while not being an enemy. They want to declare war with another point of view while declaring thiers universal. The want to do bad things to people while not wanting repercussions.

Ok, is Alexander for real? First he seperates himself by addressing "Obama and "HIS" Whitehouse" then gives a message his own party should take advice from. What do you expect from a senator that voted against the Franken Amendment to the 2010 Defense spending bill

By voting no, he and 29 other republicans told us that they are more interested in the private contractors "rights", then Ms. Jones "rights." Her story is on my front page.

Conservative republicans are up in a brawl because their very own ideological outlet has finaly been challenged.

Other media outlets has pointed out FOX's behavior before and was ignored. Now, the president has said something and that they can't ignore.

Listen at 2:10, and tell me that he's not accusing the administration of what FOX is currently doing now ! ! !

Both Alexander and Gregg voted PRO RAPE. That is all you need to know about these scumbags.

Cry me a fucking river you hypocrite.

If you "don't want to go down that road" and want a less confrontational body politic, then stop with the Tea Bag Parties and all the violent rhetoric towards President Obama and the Democrats! Is it that you don't think of Joe Wilson's crass comment as confrontational? Is it that you don't think of any crap that comes out of the mouths of Sarah Palin, Liz Cheney, Michelle Bachmann, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, or Lou Dobbs as confrontational? Give me a break!

LOL

The Rightwing is just brimming with classic cowards. They'll do anything, no matter how low, when they think they can get away with it. (Ask Nixon, or Atwater, or Rove - the list is almost endless. Ask Cheney and his WHIG pals, who would compromise our CIA's actions vs nuclear proliferation when that's what it took to get back at - ruin the career of - the WIFE of someone who disputed their war mongering lies.)

But when anyone holds them accountable... they cry like a little bitch.

[janusanus]

just by distorting everything the democrats are doing by things like deathpanels, socialism and other stuff pulled out of the air makes you an enemy? where have we gone in this world.

[cpricejones]

I think it's important to remember how closed off the last administration was. They infrequently gave press conferences, silenced those who disagreed with their (singular) point of view. And the outing of a CIA agent was a rebuke to one who would disagree. Outing a news station for being biased is hardly a match for jeopardizing the safety of a CIA agent and those she had talked to.

I didn't know that Pres. Obama had to "make" Fox news their enemy. They were an enemy form the start. Too bad the "most powerful name in news" wasn't powerful enough to deliver the white house to John McCain.
