I saw that today, it was written on the bottom of the screen, they referred to Mrs Obama as his Baby Mama. Dern...I can't remember where it was, an American newspaper website I think. Sorry...here is a link to a video of it...

Yep, it's pretty shocking.

Racism and sexism in one stroke. Fox News is the scum of the earth.

The phrase is offensive on a variety of levels. The urban slang term generally refers to unmarried women who are estranged from the fathers of their children.

The "baby mama" reference was printed on a graphic during a segment.

=O

OMG...I don't think I have ever seen anything so TACKY!

I'm sorry... can you point us to a video of a "news" organization that referred to Bush as Hitler?

It was treasonous for citizens in Nazi Germany to speak badly of Hitler - didn't mean they weren't right.

Just out of curiosity, you do know that she referred to Obama as her Baby Daddy during a public event right? Does that matter to you?

Here’s how she introduced him during his Senate victory speech on Nov. 2, 2004:

MICHELLE OBAMA, WIFE OF BARACK OBAMA: My baby’s daddy Barack Obama. Yeah!

The comment by Michelle was made 4 years ago...if Fox was referring to it, they did it reaaaaally badly. I think a mother saying that to introduce her husband is kind of cute. I doubt the person at Fox who posted the graphic was trying to achieve the same effect.

I agree with you. But it does change the effect a little. They didn't just pull it out of thin air to bash Michelle Obama. There was a background to it.

Yeah? Like there was a background for the "terroroist fist jab." Who the hell ever heard of a terrorist fist jab? We've had this "so-called" war on terror for seven years now; and the first "terrorist fist jab" comes from a Presidential candidate!?

The fist Jab stuff is totally ridiculous, but I didn't here it get as much play as the Baby Mama comment.

You know - I'm going to enjoy watching this. Those who don't think Fox did anything wrong are those who would never have voted for Obama in the first place. But for those who are wavering, a vote for McCain just might identify them in their own minds as being in line with those who run Fox News. They will run from that inner vision. Fox is ultimately hurting themselves and their cause far more than they're hurting Obama or the Dems.

Get over it. Fox News IS fair and balanced. I love it when free speech liberals support censorship of people who disagree with them.

I can't wait until Fox runs the story about McCain calling his wife a cunt.

That would be funny. I personally think McCain is an idiot. I do, however think his wife is kind of hot. :-)

Maybe she shouldn't have been acting like a cunt.

He was just calling it like he sees it.
