Well That Was Embarassing For Fox News, Wasn’t It?

I’m extremely happy that President Obama was interviewed on FOX. Health care is a right 4 everyone, EVERYONE! So everyone should be included in the conversation. Spread the word of PEACELUVNBWILD!

Obama is very good under pressure. Of course, the guy interviewing him was a light weight, like most of the douches on Fox, but still, Obama can handle himself in front of a crowd. But I think the time for staying cool is over. He needs to start showing more passion, so we can believe he actually stands for something. That’s his problem. He’s TOO good at his public persona. My health is good, and it’s going to have to stay that way because I can’t afford health care. There’s no excuse but greed for premium prices to be where they are.

I thought Baer was had done his homework. Obama p;resented his case well, but he didn’t answer the questions about why he had to pimp Members of Congress to to get votes.

I’m a little disappointed in Obama so far, but it’s a nice change to finally have a President with a brain!

Healthcare isn’t a right, it’s a by-product of the dismal welfare state created when the higher-ups decided on twisting reality.

Seriously?? Fox News is NEVER embarrassed. By anything.

@Terry Walbert: Like for the passage of Medicare prescription drug plan? Funny how fox didn’t care one lick about the arm-twisting going on before that vote.

@Kim:

Having a hard time disagreeing with that.

Obama handling himself well makes me proud everytime but I expect it from him everytime as well. Though I think it might have done some good to have a “I’m the President” moment like at the roundtable, it probably wouldn’t have been worth the spin Fox would have put on it. President Obama treats Fox like he treats the party they represent. Lets talk and I’ll let you trip yourself up. That part works everytime but at the end of the day its a decisive victory we need, not one by default.

@pp: Thank you for the losertarian perspective. Now go read some Rand.

I thought Bret was very disrespectful of the office of the President. If this was a republican president, I doubt he would have been so pushy and always interupting the President. The questions were basically one track and nothing really challenging. It is interesting how Fox overlooks how the republicans have always tried to cut Medicare. it is funny towards the the end how he says “I don’t want to interupt You” which is all he did. I think the apology at the end was more out of protcol and not honesty.

Fox dude could’ve done a better job of not trying to talk over the President but Obama can be so long-winded and wastes too much time reiterating talking points and not actually answering the questions. I like Obama but it must be frustrating to interview him.

I wanted him to say something like, “Listen we both know Fox will edit and splice anything I say to make me give the answers you want anyway and none of the mainstream media have the balls to question it. So just let me talk and your people can edit my responses later.”

There is actually a clip of Baier interviewing GW on you tube. Very different type of interview. Queerty should have included it for comparison.
