And Chris Wallace? Off your knees. It’s just… embarrassing.

In their minds, historically, liberals and Democrats just roll over and die when the media goes on the attack. Often, liberals and Dems have apologized for no good reason simply due to media attacks. The Obama campaign didn’t do this, and so far neither has the Obama White House.

This is very upsetting for in the media and the conservative movement. Their hearts wish for the day when Democrats just sucked it up and took it like during the campaigns of people like Michael Dukakis and John Kerry. It is highly upsetting to them when Dems don’t just take it.

Oh, damn.

The hypocrisy, critics say, lies in CNN’s decision to woo Hispanic viewers with a prime-time documentary while still giving Mr. Dobbs a nightly forum. Roberto Lovato, a founding member of Presente.org, a Latino advocacy group, said in a statement, “We won’t allow the network to court us as viewers while, at the same time, they allow Dobbs to spread lies and misinformation about us each night.”

Separately, Mr. Dobbs is also the target of a “Drop Dobbs” campaign by the progressive groups NDN, Media Matters for America, and others. That effort started after Mr. Dobbs repeatedly raised questions about President Obama’s birth certificate.

There is no indication that the campaigns are affecting CNN’s revenue, but they are highlighting Mr. Dobbs’s status as an outlier at the channel, which has sought to position itself as a middle ground of sorts in the fractious cable news arena. Mr. Dobbs is known to be exploring an exit from CNN, and he is viewed as a potential hire for the Fox Business Network, an upstart channel owned by the News Corporation.

As I’ve said before, Lou Dobbs already has a Fox News show… it just happens to be on CNN.

Martin served on the campaign staff of Mark Earley, the Republican nominee for Governor of Virginia in 2001. After Mark Warner was elected Governor over Earley with 52 percent of the vote, Martin relocated to Connecticut to work on the successful 2002 Congressional campaign of Connecticut Republican Rob Simmons. After Simmons assumed office, Martin joined his Congressional staff as a legislative assistant in 2003. In the fall of 2004, Martin took a leave of absence from Simmons’s Congressional staff to work on the Congressman’s re-election campaign in 2004. After Simmons was reelected, Martin returned to Simmons’s Congressional payroll and remained there until August 2005.

“You’re never going to make everybody happy all the time. That’s just the rule of politics,” said Democratic strategist Josh Gottheimer, a former senior adviser to the Clinton administration.

“I think he’s done plenty for the left, he’s done plenty for the center,” he said of Obama. “He’s got a philosophy. He made it clear when he was running for president that he was going to do what’s best for the country in very difficult times, and you’re not going to please everyone.”

Oooh. Burn. Obama’s gotta really feel that zinger. But it gets better.

The other person FoxNews.com quotes is Michael Gerson. Who is Michael Gerson, you might ask? Michael Gerson is a conservative columnist for the Washington Post and even better – the former speechwriter to failed president George W. Bush. Gerson comes to the shocking conclusion that President Obama has disappointed his liberal base. SHOCKING.

Not a single other person is quoted in the article. There are no data points cited to make the article’s main thesis (in fact, among Democrats the President has an average approval rating of 83.5%).

The article notes that Fox News White House correspondent Major Garrett contributed to it. In recent articles discussing the Obama administration’s view of Fox, the White House and others have said that Garrett is not as biased as the rest of Fox. Maybe they should rethink that.

This right wing propaganda was not from what Fox has tried to call its opinion hours, but during what is supposedly straight news. When the Dow is down its Obama’s fault, and when its up? Clearly its thanks to the Republicans.

I can’t imagine why the White House doesn’t see them as legitimate.

>> Fox’s news programs echo its “opinion” shows: Smears, doctored videos, GOP talking points

Plus, if you look at MSNBC’s lineup after 6 p.m., Fox isn’t the only network that goes heavy on the opinionated hosts.

That of course it the journalistic equivalent of writing that Mrs. Lincoln quite enjoyed the show. MSNBC has a block of 3hrs in the morning hosted by a conservative Republican ex-congressman. It has three opinion shows after 6 hosted by liberals, while another show – Matthews – is hosted by a Washington insider who will hump the leg of the alpha male in the room regardless of party. Compare that to Fox’s 24 hour blast of GOP talking points.
