Fox news is not that different from the others - just enough so that they can call themselves conservative. It all boils down to selling advertising time.
Follow the money. It never fails.

...they taught us in high school that the Judicial, Legislative, and Executive branches of the gov't were each to act as checks and balances on the others...seems like here the Executive branch is running roughshod over the people by controlling the other two branches...

...only because the other two branches are allowing themselves to be ran over....

Oh, it's transparent alright. I can see right through them. Obama is more concerned about covering for this than seeking justice. I have noticed its usually the criminals who want to cover their tracks, not the innocents.

The Department of Justice is using the liberal “watchdog” group Media Matters for America to deflect questions about the Fast and Furious scandal, including those regarding a gun that might have been used in the murder of a U.S. Border Patrol agent.
In Rules for Radicals Alinsky wrote, "[t]he job of the organizer is to maneuver and bait the establishment so that it will publicly attack him as a 'dangerous enemy.'" According to Alinsky, "the hysterical instant reaction of the establishment [will] not only validate [the organizer's] credentials of competency but also ensure automatic popular invitation."
Is this the plan? Who is the establishment? Who is the organizer? Hysterical reaction? Deny, deny, deny...
If there was a time for "hysterical reaction" to Obama in the Alinsky analysis, it would have been when he ran for the Illinois state senate. That state senate seat gave him all the street cred he might have needed. After that, he schemed and won the Illinois senate seat, and spoke at the democrat national convention. What damage he has done as POTUS is happening long, long after the time for hysterical reaction. The damage is real, the danger is real. Yelling "fire" when fire is indeed destroying the state is not just a hysterical reaction. It's a call to the bucket brigade. To sit silently by as Obama continues to exert tyrannical destruction is not an option to folks like me.

But the end game is in the election. The side issues are increasing ...guns in Mexico, the Secret sercives in south America ..Walmart in Mex.. Ford new plant in China.. Greece and the euro..They are feeding the media. The media and the Internet are hunger wolfs. If you do not feed the wolfs, they will eat you.

It would be nice if the Republicans would nominate a Woodsman who can defeat the wolf but instead they seem committed to giving the wolf fresh meat.
Tyranny is identified by what is legal for government employees but illegal for the citizenry.
