Without An Obama Scandal At Hand, Fox News Finds It Necessary To Imagine One

Reported by Ellen - May 27, 2011 -

Now that the birth certificate Trump-A-Palooza has fizzled out and that all-important controversy over the invitation of rapper Common to the White House has run its course, Fox News seems to be casting around for its next attack on Obama. Apparently at a loss, Fox is now imagining one. On Fox Nation, a recent post is called, Sabato's Crystal Ball: Obama Due for Major Scandal. Can you say, "wishful thinking?"

The post is subtitled, "Where Are the Obama Scandals?" and is written by Brendan Nyhan, Guest Columnist, for Sabato's Crystal Ball, May 26th, 2011

4. Not only that, but then he touches the same doorknob St. Reagan did with his unwashed hands!
How dare he desecrate a holy icon like that!

7. That author treats scandals like a force of nature, like the weather or earthquakes.
Edited on Fri May-27-11 06:43 PM by drm604
He talks like they're a phenomenon of statistics rather than a matter of behavior.
Obama has been extremely fortunate

Perhaps... or maybe he just hasn't done anything scandalous! Did you consider that possibility, Mr. Nyhan?

Stupid. Article. :crazy:
