SyndicatePushing a Point of View

Those commentators on Fox News who like to play it down the middle keep saying that they believe BHO’s strategy of trying to marginalize the most successful TV network in the country is unwise. Unwise? They’ve been inside the Beltway too long.
The Duplicitous Despot and his criminal minions — most notably David Axelrod, Rahm Emanuel, Anita Dunn, and Mark Lloyd — are out to shut down Fox News. No subtlety about it. They take seriously Mao’s belief that political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. After all, Anita Bandita looks to Chairman Mao when it comes to her philosophical inspiration.
When you watch certain commentators (whom I shall purposely leave unnamed) on Fox, it’s not hard to understand why there are still millions of people sleepwalking down the road to servitude. I just shake my head in amazement when I hear them — after more than nine months of nonstop treason by the White House and Congress — talk about BHO as though he’s just another one of those naive, misguided, liberal presidents.
As Bill O’Reilly (oops … slipped) often says, “If Obama does (this or that), he’s toast. It will be the end of his presidency.” The thought of a dictatorship being established before 2012 would be a comical idea to the host of such intellectual fare as “body language expert” Tonya Reiman, Miller Time, and the Great American Culture Quiz.
Worse, when Glenn Beck appears as a guest on The O’Reilly Factor, fair-and-balanced Bill loves to chuckle and refer to him (jocularly, of course) as a “troublemaker.” Beck is in an awkward position. Either by design or by accident, O’Reilly embraced him even before he came to Fox News, which makes Beck beholden to him. He’s walking a tightrope, and I don’t blame him for not wanting to upstage O’Reilly, who already is regularly outbrained by the likes of Laura Ingraham, Monica Crowley, and Megyn Kelly.
But you have to wonder what Beck is thinking when O’Reilly makes light of his impeccable research and the factual evidence he presents each day on his show. The irony is that even though Beck insists that he’s not a journalist, he has broken a majority of the most damning stories that have been aired about Sinbama and the Forty Thieves. After Beck and his staff do the research and air the evidence, all the other Fox News shows simply rerun their material.
The establishment guys, such as Chris Wallace, Brit Hume, and Bret Baier — all first-rate journalist, to be sure — don’t see what Glenn Beck and millions of everyday Americans see: Sinbama and the Forty Thieves are deadly serious about “fundamentally changing America.” And they are prepared to do so through the use of force, if necessary.
When the reincarnation of Al Capone, David Axelrod, says of Fox that “It’s really not news — it’s pushing a point of view,” it would be laughable if the stakes weren’t so high. But as Tucker Carlson said, it’s outrageous for a liar like Axelrod to say that Fox News commentators aren’t being truthful.
It’s like the schoolyard bully claiming that it was really his victim who bullied him. The bullies at the Kremlin House in Washington, of course, are all too aware that Fox is really the only station that is actually reporting the news, while the fringe media (ABC, CBS and NBC), along with CNBC and MSNBC, are going to great lengths to keep their viewers in the dark about what is really happening — particularly in Washington.
In my article “Wile E. Obama vs Road Runner Beck,” I said that the administration will soon figure out that a battle with Fox News is not winnable, which could open the door to a challenge from Hillary. You can be sure that she still spends her evenings throwing darts at BHO’s picture on her bedroom wall. But a declaration of a “state of emergency,” which I have repeatedly warned about, would render Hillary even more irrelevant than she already is.
If I ever believe that we’re getting close to that point, you’ll read about it here first. In the meantime, let’s be thankful that our illustrious president was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, because I have heard from a reliable, high-level source that he barely beat out three other worthy opponents for this great honor: Bernie Madoff, Charles Manson, and Michael Vick.
It makes me feel good all over to know that Osama Obama won the big prize — following in the noble footsteps of Yasser Arafat, Kofi Annan, Jimmy Carter, and the world’s richest global-warming hero, Al Gore — and reminds once again that it’s not about what my president can do for me, but what I can do for my president.

Excellent, excellent article. You should be a regular on Fox News.
Pretty good article. I only wish that Glen Beck wouldn’t act like a clown when he is talking about serious matters that are destroying our government. I don’t think anyone would like a doctor to joke about medicine while he diagnoses you to have cancer.
It is OK for Glen to have some lighter moments but keep them separate from the serious discussions.
Bravo !! The last two paragraphs are right on! I believe that ALFRED NOBEL would blow himself up with his own dynamite if he knew who some of the recent winners of his namesake Peace Prize were.
For the time being, we still have freedom of speech, expression and the freedom to gather. Until and unless those rights are curtailed, most Americans will remain “asleep”. However, as the Tea Parties have shown, people do still get involved when they think their basic rights are being trampled.
Consider the fact that it took the colonies over a decade to go from being universally loved in 1763 to being universally loathed, at least in the North, by 1776. Americans have been sleepwalking through the progressive takeover of our nation for decades now. It’ll be a while for people to wake up. The good news is that more and more people seem to be waking up.
Let me please applaud today’s great article! ~molly~
Robert,
I have been a reader for about two years now and have noticed a change in your articles. They are now more than ever focused on freedom and with very good reason. I believe you would make Thomas Paine proud. Keep on writing and we will keep on reading. With your help educating the populace, then hopefully the next American Revolution need not be bloody and liberty prevails.
Ever Hopeful,
ACE
What do you expect from Bill O’Reilly?
I mean, he was the host of “Hard Copy” for Pete’s sake.
He’s a moron.
I love your article, Mr. Ringer. I forward them to everyone I know. Hopefully, you got some new subscribers out of it.
Keep telling the truth!
Tammy
You’re right as usual except for one thing – Miller Time does not belong in the same category as Body Language and Culture Quiz. Miller is witty and often humorous. I know it’s a minor point, but it’s the only thing I could find wrong with your essay.

This is another way to look at it. This morning I saw Glenn Beck make a point which is that David Copperfield (the magician) got the viewer to look at the wrong hand when he did his coin tricks. If I understood Glenn correctly, we are watching a few clowns fight Fox News when the real trick is elsewhere…Obamacare. Makes sense to me, as Glenn said, all politicians know not to get into an quarrel with an organization which buys ink by the barrel. There must be an ulterior motive.
Spot on about O’Reilly. In my opinion, he is more worried about keeping himself in the limelight, than calling a “spade” a spade. What a doofus.
Enjoy your insight in your articles. Is it possible some of the other people who you purposely leave unnamed on Fox, have initials like S.S. or G.R.?
