73. President Obama: Call out Fox News Now! Stop this madness!
Deliberate lying to incite people into possible unspeakable acts is dangerous. I believe in the 1st Amendment, but Fox News has long ago destroyed any legitimacy it was once a 'news' organization. And when they sponsored the Tea Party events all across the country they should have had their FCC license pulled.

President Obama: Stop cowering and start leading. If you can't do it then let someone with balls, like Alan Grayson, do your job. You could remain a figurehead while Alan Grayson could courageously lead our country. Grayson doesn't put up with the constant crap as you do Mr. President. We elected you to lead and to fight the evils of the right wing. If you cannot or will not do that, then step aside so someone with guts can do it.

Frankly, the progressives who worked their asses off to get you elected are getting tired of changing your diapers. It's time for you to stand up and be a man who is a leader. Your knee jerk reactions to Fox News stories demonstrate you are not leading anything. You are an enabler of Fox News, making them even stronger because you constantly fall for their idiocy. Just when in the hell are you going to wake up and be a damned leader?

There is a way to get a real leader into the White House and it wouldn't take any time at all. If both the president and vice president resigned the Speaker of the House would fill that position. And if Alan Grayson was voted by his fellow congressmen and women he could be that speaker of the house. I'm sure Alan Grayson would gladly assume the duties as President of the United States, and he certainly wouldn't cower at the sight of anyone in the right wing.
