First the President personally attacked the conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh. Shortly after taking office, Obama launched an unprovoked offensive against Limbaugh, telling Republican officials on Capitol Hill:
“You can’t just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done.”
Then the White House press secretary Robert Gibbs personally attacked CNBC reporter Rick Santelli for calling out the shameful spending of the so-called Stimulus Bill. An act that has inspired a new Tea Party movement of dissent.
Gibbs went after Santelli on an eerily personal level saying:
“I’ve watched Mr. Santelli on cable the past 24 hours or so. I’m not entirely sure where Mr. Santelli lives or in what house he lives…”
Now White House press secretary Robert Gibbs is personally attacking Jim Cramer of the Mad Money TV show for speaking out about the Obama administration’s destruction of American wealth. Cramer accurately pointed out that the Obama administration is acting like amateur hour. How does the Obama White House react? By attacking Jim Cramer of course! Robert Gibbs went after Cramer saying:
“I’m not entirely sure what he’s pointing to to make some of the statements,” said Gibbs. “And you can go back and look at any number of statements he’s made in the past about the economy and wonder where some of the back-up for those are too.”
So is this how it’s going to be for the next four years? Speak out against the Obama administration and the president releases the hounds?
Is this what Obama was talking about when he spoke of “change?”
Attack anyone who dissents on a personal level?
No wonder the media is in the tank for Obama. They must be scared shitless.
