Fox does speak for millions of Americans we believe that Obama is taking us down the road to Socialism. Dictating what companies can pay there exectuves, firing CEOS, Giving Geithner control of companies that are "Too BIG To Fail" Card Check, nationalized Health Care, Not allowing banks to vie back the Tarp money even if they want to because he wants to be able to regulate the banks. and so on. We are not from Mars we have ligitimate cause to be concerned.
And Fox doesn't speak for 10s of millions more Americans that do not believe Obama is taking us down the road to socialism. Elections have consequences, America has soundly rejected conservatism and the reich-wing.
