FOX News & Obama Aide Engage In Heated Exchange
www.mydd.com Obama Cornering Fox News by Josh Orton, Mon Oct 27, 2008 at 05:27:15 PM EST A couple weeks ago, I listed three examples of either Obama or his surrogates explicitly calling out Fox News for their blatant conservative bias. Obama himself told the New York Times that Fox’s disinformation is likely costing him a couple points in the polls. Today, Obama’s campaign stepped up their pushback to Fox News: in response to McCain’s latest lie about “spreading the wealth,” spokesman Bill Burton called out the biased messenger right along with the dishonest message: “This is a fake news controversy drummed up by the all too common alliance of Fox News, the Drudge Report and John McCain, who apparently decided to close out his campaign with the same false, desperate attacks that have failed for months. In this seven year old interview, Senator Obama did not say that the courts should get into the business of redistributing wealth at all. Americans know that the real choice in this election is between four more years of Bush-McCain policies that redistribute billions to billionaires and big corporations and Barack Obama’s plan to help the middle class by giving tax relief to 95% of workers and companies that create new jobs here in America. That’s the change we need, and no amount of eleventh-hour distractions from the McCain campaign will change that,” said Obama-Biden campaign spokesman Bill Burton. We’ve come a long way. Back in 2007, when Obama dropped out of the Fox …
Her points were backed up by polls and facts, his were completely rhetoric. Typical liberal, blame fox news for all it’s problems.
@critter505 When we become wage slaves like those in Great Britain during the Industrialization, you tell me whether or not they should keep THEIR money, after all, it does say U.S treasury on YOUR money. lol
@NihilTico What the hell are you talking about?????
“Fox news ‘fair’ and ‘balanced’ — ‘as usual’” Ha Ha Ha!!! I can’t believe she says that with a straight face!
Nearly two years later we all know the answer to the question Megan was asking Bill Burton; Does Obama have a socialistic agenda?. Yesterday’s (07-15-2010) national polls say that nearly 55% of Americans believe Obama is a Socialist.
Maybe if you wouldnt call them “The Obama Camp” you wouldnt be set up for absolute ostrasizing from a Democratic government.

@critter505 her ‘polls’ and ‘facts’ tend to be made up and blown out of proportion. and she has been quoted to say that she doesn’t trust polls. Look it up, its on Youtube.

Under George W. Bush’s “tax cuts for the rich” the rich paid more in taxes in 2005 than any time in the prior 20 years. In fact, as the Wall Street Journal noted, thanks to George W. Bush’s tax cuts for the rich, the richest one percent went from paying 25% of all income taxes in 1990 to 39% in 2005. The richest 5% went from paying 44% of all income taxes in 1990 to paying 60% of all income taxes in 2005.
