Fox Flashback: Sept 2 (Greta)

In His Own Words

Green Job Czar, Van Jones was asked how Republican's were able to get things through when they didn't have the majority in Congress and he responded, "The answer to that is, they are assholes...pause, laughter...and Barack Obama is not an asshole..." (Feb 2009)

So, A.) he is an inappropriate, unprofessional ass himself and B.) an idiot because he goes on to compare them to Barack Obama, which wasn't even the question. duh!

He released a statement to Politico, "These comments, made before I joined the administration, were clearly inappropriate and I apologize for the offensive words I chose to use during that speech."

Just because he apologizes doesn't make it right. It is pretty clear what his views are on the GOP and that pretty much kills the bipartisan front. And this man is in charge of how much money? What is he doing again? Righhht we don't know because he isn't "responsible" to us.

Classroom Controversy: Education or Indoctrination

• Obama will be addressing student across teh country on an internet broadcast on Tuesday of next week.
  
• The Department of Education said that the speech is meant to encourage student to stay in school.
• Here is the controversy: A lesson plan came out with suggested activities for Pre-K-6th grade teacher. Activities to accompany President Obama's speech. One of them advise that the student to write letter to themselves to ask themselves what they can do to help President Obama.
  

Excerpt from the Original, Unchanged Version:

• Why is it important that we listen to the President and other elected officials, like the mayor, senators, members of congress, or the governor? Why is what they say important?
• As students listen to the speech, they could think about the following: What is the President trying to tell me? What is the President asking me to do? What new ideas and actions is the President challenging me to think about?
• Write letter about what they can do to help the president. These would be collected and redistributed at an appropriate later date by the teacher to make students accountable to their goals.
  

• This document is written with a clear tenor that every student would approve and believe what Obama is saying. There are no questions about whether they believe Obama or agree with him.
  
• Guest: It definitely seems like they are trying to get students to get public school student's to talk about how great our President is and there are many people outraged at public funds going towards this...

UPDATE: Whole Foods CEO Attacked When Exercising 1st Amendment Rights

Here are some articles with updates about what is going on with the Whole Foods Boycott and Anti Boycott:

Breaking: CtW Investment Group Calls for Whole Foods Board to Remove CEO John Mackey

BRIETBART: Boycotting the boycotters

Opinion: Supporters of Glenn Beck and Whole Foods Challenge Boycotts


As a proud member of the I SUPPORT MR. JOHN MACKEY and WHOLE FOODS, INC. facebook group I recieved this message from the groups organizer, Crystal Mae, also featured on Greta's segment Food Fight.

........................................................................................................................................................

Mr. Mackey's proposals:

•Equalize the tax laws so that employer-provided health insurance and individually owned health insurance have the same tax benefits. Now employer health insurance benefits are fully tax deductible, but individual health insurance is not. This is unfair.

•Repeal all state laws which prevent insurance companies from competing across state lines. We should all have the legal right to purchase health insurance from any insurance company in any state and we should be able use that insurance wherever we live. Health insurance should be portable.

•Repeal government mandates regarding what insurance companies must cover. These mandates have increased the cost of health insurance by billions of dollars. What is insured and what is not insured should be determined by individual customer preferences and not through special-interest lobbying.

•Enact tort reform to end the ruinous lawsuits that force doctors to pay insurance costs of hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. These costs are passed back to us through much higher prices for health care.

•Make costs transparent so that consumers understand what health-care treatments cost. How many people know the total cost of their last doctor's visit and how that total breaks down? What other goods or services do we buy without knowing how much they will cost us?

•Enact Medicare reform. We need to face up to the actuarial fact that Medicare is heading towards bankruptcy and enact reforms that create greater patient empowerment, choice and responsibility.

•Finally, revise tax forms to make it easier for individuals to make a voluntary, tax-deductible donation to help the millions of people who have no insurance and aren't covered by Medicare, Medicaid or the State Children's Health Insurance Program.

Keep standing up, and speaking out! Hope you have a great day!

In Liberty,

Crystal

Whole Foods CEO Attacked When Exercising 1st Amendment Rights

.

Check out the discussion Greta has about the Whole Foods boycotts.

As reported earlier this week the CEO of Whole Foods wrote an op-ed against the Obamacare plan providing his own solution to the admitted health care problem. Subsequently people have been organizing a boycott against Whole Foods.

Greta featured a woman who started a group on Facebook called I SUPPORT MR. JOHN MACKEY and WHOLE FOODS, INC. on the program to combat the ignorance of the protest organizer who was also a guest. Click below for the clip of the show.

Food Fight

The interaction between the man and Greta is wonderful! The organizer (who is supposedly a lawyer) calls Mr. Mackey a bad person and claims public option is the only solution. Greta counters with astonishment and confusion as to how he can claim to have the only right opinion and judges someone because they used thier first amendment rights. Its great!!

What can you do? Join the group on Facebook (if you have it) and make sure to let Whole Foods know how you feel by sending your local store an email.

You can also show your support by adding a comment to Mr. Mackey's blog post about he subject.

Fox Flashback: August 10th (Hannity and O'Reily)

Here are some highlights from The O'Reily Factor and Hannity

The O'Reily Factor

It is undeniable that people are staring to realize that most of the media aka CNN, MSNBC, NBC, etc are extremely liberal and totally biased. Fox news has gained a tremendous amount of support from conservatives in the past but it seems that moderates and perhaps, dare I say it, some liberals are starting to realize the hazards of a government influenced biased media source.

Factor Victory
8 PM Time Slot
August 6, 2009

Margin of Victory:
CNN 380%
MSNBC 247%
Headline News 299%

I was wondering why CNN had such a large margin of victory. While MSNBC, which I consider the most liberal and biased stations of all, had a smaller margin. After some consideration however I realize that the extreme liberals watch MSNBC and must still consider FOX the conservative biased network. While CNN attracted more moderate viewer. This is a nice realization that more Americans seem to be moderate perhaps.

The O'Reily Factor, Total Audience August 6, 2009 = 5.4 million CBS Evening News with Katie Couric, Avg Audience July 2009 = 5.368 Million

Glenn Beck (5 pm), Shepard Smith (6 pm), Greta van Susteren (10 pm) and the Factor (8 pm) beat all four competitors combined.

• Dan Rather says that Obama needs to clean up the media. He wants a presidential panel to monitor the news and come up with solutions.

This is absolutely insane to me! Well, it really is not because Dan Rather is incredibly liberal but it is insane to think that the government should be regulating the media.

Let me ask you a questions? It illegal to smoke marijuana but people do it anyways right? Even if you don't agree that it should be illegal, is smoking pot still the wrong thing to do? If you didn't answer YES then maybe your hiding your bowl right now...

So lets play the rational game here. The government is already controlling the media in so many respects, just take a look at the media coverage for the 2008 election. There are those out there that believe the government should control the media, why? Because it benifits thier viewpoints. But just because those things are happeneing doesn't mean its right. (Nothing about that is "right"!)

• Bernie Goldberg author of the book "A slobbering Love Affair" claiming that word of mouth is why fox is growing. "views should be repected in the media even if its not being reflected"
  

As a guest today Bill had David Cerner, AARP Legislative Policys Director.

• O'Reily first showed the youtube video of the AARP meeting where the representatives left (reference the youtube videos on lower left hand corner)
• He then asked Cerner the questions about the memo that Nancy Pelosi drafted saying that AARP was partnering to sponser the bill. Cerner wouldn't comment on a memo citing ignorance and calling the letters existence into question. . "I don't believe that memo every came out" then later "as I understand that was a draft memo and when the final memo came out AARP was not included in that memo. Cerner simply kept repeating that they work with both sides of the asile.
• O'Reily proceeded to present the information that Barry Rand, AARP's CEO gave Obama 9 million dollars.
• Cerner on rationing of care: We would reject that idea. We would not support a system where there is a government take over. There should be choices between public and private.

Bill really seemed to be putting the pressure on this man to veer away from the talking points and give him a straight answer.

• University of Oregon- Liberal Professors outnumber Conservative Professors 14 to 1
• Woman in Oregon walks around naked and Police say there is nothing illegal about that.
  

IMPORTANT FACT: In Oregon there is a state run health care system. In 2006 Barbara Wagner, a 64 yr old universal health care recipient was diagnosed with lung cancer. She was refused the drug she needed for treatment because it was too expensive and was instead offered the $50 euthanasia option, also legal in Oregon. Barbara Wagner died from lung cancer.

"The bottom line in Health Care Reform is the bottom line"

• On one of NBC News shows a commentator talks about "right wing gun clinging Americans"- "There is a whole public out there stocked up on ammunition because they were afraid it would be taken away from them. I want to see what Fox News and Glenn Beck would say the day after one of those people go out and hurts the President or Congress"

Really! I would like to see what NBC would have said if someone goes out there and hurts Sarah Palin. Would they be responsible for increasing the liberal public hate for her.

• Palin talks about death panels and grandparents and trig being put to back of line
• Howard Dean- euthanasia is not in this bill
• Cynthia tucker Atlanta Journal Constitution: "45-46% of people appearing at these townhalls are people that would be never be happy with a black president"
  

WSJ reporting that Illegal Aliens will be reported and considered the same as us citizens in census. meaning that there will be more reps in the border towns.

Health Care Townhall Meeting Videos

John Dingell, Aug 6th ,Michigan
Tom Harkin , Aug 8th, Des Moines, IA

At this point Obamcare protesters have been called...

• un-American
• Nazi sympathizers
• Tim Mcvey sympathizers
• Organized Mobsters
• Brown Shirts
• Political Terrorist
  

"Drowning out opposing views is simply un-american"-Pelosi

• Dick Morris commenting on Health Care Reform Townhall Meeting (paraphrasing) "These old people are not the 18 year olds we saw during Carter. These are people that had to get up with their canes and make an effort to protest. I think they will try to ram this down the Americans throat with the 50 throats but if you can get all of these red state dem to see red then we have a chance. there is a chance if they are seeing the elderly turn to an anti-Obama group they will not push this through."
  

• Forbes.com estimates that the actual number of jobs lost last month is closer to 600,000 as opposed to 200,000 that Obama cited. This is due to the fact that in the summer months jobs are added.
  
• People who stopped looking for jobs were taken out of the unemplyment numbers, these people are called the discouraged unemployed.
• Unemployment in the ages 16-19 is at 23%.
• The deficit grew by 189 billion in July. Now the White House is asking Congress to increase debt limits.
• China holds 800 billion in US bonds

• Hannity had J Mark Campbell, cameraman from the Thursday, Tampa, townhall meeting where Union workers worked as security guards outside the doors and proheathcare constituents were set up in the front of the auditorium.

Great American Panel...
on Townhall Meetings

• People are ignorant to think that people just go there. They were called down and organized. You would pick the most compassionate people as well.
• This health care system is collapsing under its own weight!
• This is about control- government jumping in and taking control of individual lives and people do not want to let them

One word for Bob Beckle- bull. You are full of it! I am an American that has never been contacted by any organization. I would attend one of these meeting the minute I find out about one. The minute that one of my Senators decides that he has the nerve to face his employers and take the heat. And we all know there is plenty of heat in Florida.

On the 500 million they want to spend on airplanes...

• Congress approval rating 30% and they wonder why?
  
• Bob Beckle says its bad timing and should be taken off the table and it will be forgotten by next week

On what we gave to N.Korea for the two journalist...

• Now the US admin will hold talks with N.Korea.
  
• Kim Jun is sick and trying to give his son the government and will use the US talks as a confirmation of his power.
  
• Bob Beckle blames the Bush administration for not doing anything before
• Others on panel say that Obama admin must take responsibility for what is going on now...and stop looking to the past.
