The media is turning on President Obama | New York Post
I'm not sure that this is temporary or a sign of the future.
That being said, this is quite an interesting article about Mr. Obama and the news media's coverage...
That being said, this is quite an interesting article about Mr. Obama and the news media's coverage...
In a recent New York Post article, Michael Goodwin reports on this:
"Obama had a free hand to make a mess because they gave it to him. They cheered him on, supporting him with unprecedented gobs of money and near-unanimous votes. They said 'aye' to any cockamamie concept he came up with, echoed his demonization of critics and helped steamroll unpopular and unworkable ideas into reality.
Some of his backers knew better, and said so privately, but publicly they were all in. Whether it was ObamaCare, his anti-Israel position or the soft-shoe shuffle around the Iranian nuke crisis, they lacked the courage to object.
They said nothing as Obama went on foreign apology tours and stood silent as our allies warned of disastrous consequences. Even now, despite protests from a succession of Pentagon leaders, former Democratic defense hawks are helping Obama hollow out our military as Russia and China expand theirs and al Qaeda extends its footprint."
