100 Days Are Nearly Up. Vote for The Worst Media Moment of Obama's Presidency. MediaMatters
Edited on Thu Apr-23-09 01:16 PM by TheBigotBasher

4. Fox's Teabag Obama Hatefest
The fact that it was blatently a Fox News sideshow orchestration should leave little doubt that it encompassed all of what Beck, Rush, Slanthead and the other college dropout freepers have been spewing...
