The Fox Nation Wants President Obama Dead

Fox Nation is at it again. Today they featured a story about President Obama’s determination to see health care reform implemented. But in their inimitable way, they twisted the message to reflect negatively on the President. Even worse, they aroused the natural inclinations of their readers to bask in a frenzy of assassination fantasies.

Fox Nation Wants Obama Dead

The Fox Nationalists ran with a headline that read: “Obama Invokes His Death in Health Care Talks.” Of course, Obama did no such thing. The article that Fox Nation linked to was an Associated Press piece on Yahoo! News. The sound bite that Fox latches onto was nothing more than a humorous aside:

“Obama joked that the political battle has contributed to the recent rise in his cholesterol…and the president noted how ironic it would be if health care drove him to his grave.”

So Obama did not “invoke” his death as a substantive part of the ongoing talks. But Fox Nation did. And the result was a rush of comments by Fox Nationalists who were only too happy to see the President dead.

“ironic it would be if health care drove him to his grave”.
This would be the best thing that could happen to the USA.

wow that’s something that we can only dream about

HEY MR. PREZ. PROMISE TO TELEVISE IT ON YOUR LAME STREAM MEDIA STATIONS,,,,, THE RATINGS WOULD GO THRU THE ROOF,,,

Promise?! Whatever it takes. I’m running out of pins for my nobama chia pet.

Many Americans wish we could grant you your wish

The progressives are so desperate to shove down our throats that which we DO NOT WANT.
They think they are so close, yet IF they pass it, it very well could be the literal de.ath of Obama, for TREASON.
He KNOWS there is NO Constitutional authority for this take-over of healthcare.
Go ahead, Obama, make America’s day.

OBAMA SHOULD KNOW THAT HIS THREAT WOULD ONLY ANSWER OUR PRAYERS….

So go ahead – do America a favor

Frankly I would call it irony if he went to his grave because of health care! Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy!

So it is not Obama who invoked his own death, but Fox Nation and its clan. And it isn’t only the bloodthirsty, racist, hate mongering, denizens of Fox’s blogosphere who are expressing their opinions in terms that imply Obama’s demise, it is also members of Congress and rightist pundits:

Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee said the president and House Democratic leaders are asking their colleagues to “hold hands, jump off a cliff and hope Harry Reid catches them.”

In a post on Andrew Breitbart’s Big Journalism website, Frank Ross wrote: “Mark Steyn is always right, whether he’s writing about Andrew Lloyd Webber or, in this case, the suicide-bomber-in-chief, Barack Obama.

Is it any wonder that the FBI has reported more threats against this president than any before him?

Flashback: May 2008:

Ha ha hah. That was a good laugh, wasn’t it?

Glenn Beck Begs You To Leave Your Church

Pope Glenn BeckAmerica’s number one televangelist, Glenn Beck, has consistently been an advocate of traditional values. So much so that he formed a movement he calls “The 9/12 Project” based on the nine values and twelve principles that he has deemed critical for righteous living.

The second of Beck’s holy principles (following “America Is Good”) is:
I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

I’m not going to speculate as to why America’s goodness trumps the Lord, but second place is still a pretty respectable finish for God. Obviously Beck considers worship to be a fairly high priority. However, it must be the right kind of worship. And to assist you making the proper spiritual choice, Pope Beck has declared a new edict for you to follow: Avoid any church that espouses “social justice.” Beck asserts that it is just a code word for communism, or fascism, or both.

“I’m begging you, your right to religion and freedom to exercise religion and read all of the passages of the Bible as you want to read them and as your church wants to preach them are going to come under the ropes in the next year. If it lasts that long it will be the next year. I beg you, look for the words ‘social justice’ or ‘economic justice’ on your church Web site. If you find it, run as fast as you can. Social justice and economic justice, they are code words.

Now, am I advising people to leave their church? ….. YES!”

The Glenn Beck Radio Program, March 2, 2010:

Did you hear that? Beck is begging you to run as fast as you can from any religious institution that embraces social justice. Flee now from churches that advocate for the welfare of the poor, the hungry, the sick, people enduring hardships and looking for answers. In other words, renounce any parish that practices the teachings of Jesus. Beck should recall the words of Dom Helder Camara, Archbishop of Recife:

“When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist.”

It’s not enough that Beck passes such judgments on compassionate believers, the urgency for his advice is clearly and frighteningly articulated. Religious freedom is under attack and you may have only a year left to worship as you choose. So you had better start to worship as HE chooses. And how does Beck know that the end to religious freedom is so near? He doesn’t say. He doesn’t even hint at any lurking threat. It must have been revealed to him in a vision – or from the voice of his German Shepherd, Victor. [How appropriate is it that Beck has a pet that is “German” (like him) and a “Shepherd”?] And that vision probably included the figure of a haloed Kenyan Muslim floating over a dilapidated White House with hammer & sickle flag waving above the Chinese-made solar panels.

Update: Christian leaders are responding to Beck’s call to leave your church with a call to leave Beck: Tell Glenn Beck: I’m a Social Justice Christian. That seems like something a compassionate spiritual advisor would have been calling for all along. Better late than never.
