‘Uncle Jim Who’s a Little Stubborn’: Obama Takes a Shot at Fox News

President Barack Obama took a jab at Fox News during a campaign event Friday while reminding supporters that he’s “lowered taxes” for the middle class.

“So just in case some of your friends or neighbors, or you know, Uncle Jim who‘s a little stubborn and been watching Fox News and no he thinks that somehow I’ve raised taxes,” Obama said to laughter. “Let’s just be clear — we’ve lowered taxes for middle class families since I came into office.”

Fox News has been a favorite media target of the White House, most recently earlier this month when White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett said none-too-subtly that those who believe the administration is promoting “class warfare” may be watching “one particular network.”

      Lowered taxes? Really? Just because he keeps trying to name his new taxes with names other than “Tax”…..

      The only people not paying more taxes are his progressive dem friends and that is only because they don’t pay their taxes!

      Keep waiting for a lightning bolt to come banging down each time he tells a whopper like that!

      He undid the Bill Clinton welfare reform.
      Welfare to work is now dead.
      Now you can be on welfare and not bother to try and find employment.

      Well, that’s certainly not me. Never claimed to be. A lot of people are being fooled by Romney, or have such hate/anger towards BO that it blinds them. So I guess since you’ve been around awhile and I haven’t, that means you know more than I do? Try not to be too arrogant. As WAKINGSHEEP pointed out, those were facts. Now, maybe he doesn’t support some of those things at this moment, but that’s not the point.

      The point is they are all crooks and liars. So picking the “lesser” of the two liars doesn’t make much sense.

I’m middle class – make over 50 grand and less than 60 grand. Can’t figure out how to get under that 50 grand and no taxes without lying or cheating. Our whole tax system was designed for everyone to pay and all will have to if we ever want to get rid of that 16 trillion debt, of which Obama has put on in 3.5 Yrs..Folks that make over 12 grand should at least pay 1% and over 20 grand 2%, Etc.

      I’m glad you changed your ways. However, bureaucrats rarely have real heart felt honest change. They play both sides to get votes.

      The good people are outnumbered by the bad 1,000 to 1. So it’s almost pointless. Not to mention some of those “good” people while they may have a good heart and intentions still support bad things because they believe in the system.

      Personally, I see the system as too far gone. That’s why I want everything to be privatized so we can have a TRUE Free Market, instead of this “pay or go to jail” BS. I greatly enjoy politics and making things right, but I will never go into it, because no real change would happen. The only place one could might make a difference is law enforcement. Think about it. Bureaucrats can write all the laws they want; write till their hands fall off and there is no more paper, but unless there is a gun to back up their legal suggestions, well…that’s what they will stay—suggestions.

      Mr. Romney is a self-made man who knows what it takes to meet a payroll and a man who has actually worked in the private sector. This is in contrast to a man who has worked on the public payroll his entire life and has surronded himself with folks who are likewise unfamiliar with with the capitalistic way of life (92%).
      Romney was not my first choice but Obama is last on my list.

      Wakingsheep – I too believe myself to be a strict Constitutionalist. But I realize that we don’t get back to the strict Constitution in one voting cycle when we have been going this way for over 120 years. I believe that Romney is better than Obama. We can quibble about how much better but in the end he IS better. Any vote for any other candidate is a vote for Obama. Hold your nose, close your eyes, clinch your buttcheeks. Do what eve you have to do. But vote, and vote for Romney. We will get back to the Constitution one day. It just won’t be this year.

      I hear you waking sheep, and I sympathize. But we both know that our forefathers who wrote the Constitution would not be happy if we chose to give up our vote because there was no one that exactly met our criteria for whom to vote. A write in is better than not voting. But in this election we both know that our Country is on the line. And an admitted Marxist in a second term when he doesn’t have to worry about being reelected will, in fact, destroy this Country. Please think about it. And write in only if you must. But VOTE. Our Country does hang in the balance.

      Its interesting to see who controls the GOP.
      Beck said he wanted Santorum
      Palin said she wanted Gingrich
      Blazers went for the flavour of the week starting with Bachmann, Perry, Cain, Gingrich and Santorum.
      Everybody despised Mitt Romney except for 1 organisation and its only taken Fox news 4 months to have you all bleating nicely in tune and declaring Romney as the saviour to the human race, funny.
      The only supporters who stay true are Paul supporters and the only candidate that actually espouses all the virtues that cons crave is Paul.
      If Fox news declared tomorrow their support for Paul, he would win the election hands down.

      Survivorseed – I watch 1-2 hours of Fox News a month. I liked 1. Cain, 2. Santorium, and 3. Paul. While I really liked Paul I felt his foreign policy stand was a non-starter. Wouldn’t get enough people to agree. I was right. Someday you guys need to realize Paul does not have an ice cubes chance in Hell of getting elected. Let’s get Obama out of office and then work on a constitutional candidate that can win with the support of the majority of the American people. That day is coming. Perhaps not in my lifetime but I will work hard to make it happen as soon as practically possible. Don’t give up! But don’t throw your vote away either.

    His signature program, Obamacare was deemed legal because the SCOTUS said the penalty was a tax.
    Energy costs more.
    Food costs more.
    Compliance costs more and all those cost are passed down to the consumer with a lower wage than before.

Romney has promised to repeal Obamacare, lower taxes, get rid of all the new regulations, etc. He isn’t the same as Obama at all. Talk about flip flop, Obama has mastered that only calls it evolving, sure!!!! Obama is a Marxist. Romney is a Capitalist and will do all he can to turn this country around and into prosperity again.

      Do you think Obamacare is Constitution (regardless of the ruling)?
      Romneycare was the same.
      Do you believe we have the right to bear arms per the 2nd ammendment?
      Romney signed an assault rifle ban.
      Do you believe the FED is Constitutional?
      Romney believes the FED should not have to be regulated by Congress.

      He might be a better businessman than Obama but he wreaks of big government mastermind.

      The only reason this election was different as far as getting back to Constitutional; WE HAD THE CANDIDATE FOR IT!
      We the people voted against the Constitution this year by nominating Romney instead of Paul.

    The devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth.

    Putin asks to call Russia and talks for 5 minutes. When he is finished the devil informs him that the cost is a million dollars, so Putin writes him a check.

    Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes. When she is finished the devil informs her that the cost is 6 million dollars, so she writes him a check.

    Finally George Bush gets his turn and talks for 4 hours. When he is finished the devil informs him that the cost is $5.00.

    When Putin hears this he goes ballistic and asks the devil WHY Bush got to call the USA so cheaply.

    The devil smiles and replies, ” Since Obama took over , the country has gone to hell, so it’s a local call.”
