Fox News' Bret Baier Interrupts The President

Filed under: Politik > Barack Obama

We wouldn't expect anything less!

In an interview with Fox News that was recorded on Wednesday, President Obama was interviewed by the very disrespectful Bret Baier.

They discussed the future of health care reform and the upcoming Congressional vote, yet something kept coming up unexpectedly - Baier's big mouth!

The interviewer consistently interrupted the President and later apologized for the interjections stating that he wanted to "get more bang for buck."

clASSy.

      Re: Aussieone – Dig us out of a hole by spending a TRILLION dollars??? On what planet does that make sense??? That's "all" he's trying to do, huh? Not erode our civil liberties and turn back all our innovations..of course not… keep telling yourself he's doing this for our own good and maybe you can sleep at night…

      So typical of FOX/Republicans/Conservatives - why don't you practice what you preach (and preach and preach), assholes? This is the President - an office/position which commands/requires respect and deference, especially from some low-level reporter.

      Not true, you stupid bitch - this is the president. Would you be saying the same thing if it had been Bush being interviewed by Anderson Cooper? (Not that Cooper would have been rude and classless like the Fox reporter.)

      Once again Fox proved themselves to be neither far nor balanced. Other than Shep Smith, the entire network is filled with carnival barkers and mentally challenged boobs.

      Hahaha. Awesome comeback. Except for the fact that I don't repost the same crap over and over again… and I don't attack or try to ram my opinions down everyone's throats.

      And I didn't say you can't post what you want… but you're clearly trying to enlighten people with your in-depth knowledge of Fox News, so, if you care about your message, you should care that your message isn't being interpreted or received well.

      That's it for me, DUDE. I'm done work now so I'm going to get off this website and enjoy life… I suggest you do the same! Don't know where you are in the world, but where I am now, it's gorgeous outside :)

      I read people saying country going down hill or people think Obama is jesus. How do you think we got in to most of this mess? That's what is always interesting when I hear both sides. Both side are guilty of plenty, but the previous administration didn't care about what you thought. He walked in to a mess and everyone wants it cleaned up in less than 6 months. Also I watch FOX and I was angry with the disrespect that they showed the President. I have watched them interview others and they don't make it as Media Driven as this. Also if you don't like the current administartion or who runs your city get involved in politics and VOTE. I have read the 2800+ pages and trust me it was boring, but what is the other plan. No one came forward with trying to push this previously. I want the same insurance everyone in the White House and Congress and Senate has. Dammed if he does and dammed if he doesn't it always seems to me.

      I have to say Good Job to Bret. This healthcare bill is not about healthcare but a government takeover of the people. And why on earth would any intelligent person say and the POTUS of the US say that a bill has to be passed so he and the rest of us will know what is in it.Other than that being at the height of stupidity, the Obamacare bill will bankrupt this country. The numbers for it are unsustainable.

      My gosh!! First off, Fox News has a high number of Democratic and Independent viewers. They are fair and balanced. They have the guts to ask the tough questions! And for JOURNALISTS, like Baier, it is their job to get the answers to the questions AMERICANS are asking. It's amazing that people still listen and praise Obama.. He's been saying the same bs this whole week even though tons of questions have popped up. I applaud Baier.
      Perez.. JUST DON'T!! Like another reader said below, I don't consider you a journalist.

Don't you realize you are ONLY EMBARRASSING YOURSELF!!??



    35. 135

      The president was annoyed that the reporter was trying to stop him from filibustering. He wouldnt allow the reporter to ask questions and get answers the president knew he had 20 minutes to talk him self back into the public's hearts. He was filibustering and Fox News couldnt get a word in.



    36. 136

      My President couldn't answer a question if the answer were plastered to his wife's fist. If Bush was "the decider", this guy's "the avoider". Hello, Jimmy Carter, this is Barry, can you call me back and let me know how Habitat for Humanity pays? I'm looking at a short stay in this town and I need a fall back. Call me.

      OMG he interrupted the president! as if thats wrong? its only wrong in a DICTATORSHIP! our gov't works for WE THE PEOPLE! "dissent is the highest form of patriotism"-Thomas Jefferson. I don't need mainstream media twisting the truth and re writing history, thats why I don't watch T.V.

    46. 146

      This interview was not disrespectful at all. The problem is that Obama is such a manipulator and so arrogant that he felt "entitled" to ramble about in his answers. He could not give a straight answer if someone gave him a million bucks. He wants to take over EVERYTHING. Personally, I pay my own bills. I don't need a handout or an "entitlement" from my country. Isn't that a funny term: ENTITLEMENT. Why is ANYONE entitled to a free ride????? I live in Louisiana and the federal government is still paying people's rent from Hurricane Katrina!! Isn't that crazy!!! They have flipped them all to Section 8. They get up to $1200 a month for rent!! Wouldn't that be nice???? There is so much fraud and this Obamacare is only more freebies!! Let's make real rules for the insurance companies and stop the stupid lawsuits and that will save us MORE than this stupid bill will cost us!!!!



    47. 147

      FUCK FOX NEWS. IT IS NOT A REAL NEWS NETWORK. THEY MANUFACTURE TEA PARTY MOVEMENTS AND PROPAGANDA.

      This bill will reduce the deficit by 138 billion dollars. Bush's tax cut for the rich added 385 billion to the deficit. Republicans are "fiscally conservative" LMFAO!



    51. 151

      Actually, most journalists do this. I love Anderson Cooper but he constantly interrupts people. I have never seen him finish an interview without interrupting someone and sometimes it is in the middle of a story and not a politican giving a bull**** answer.

      Murdoch's son-in-law, Matthew Freud, delivered an astonishingly public broadside against Fox News. Freud, a media-savvy London public relations supremo married to Murdoch's daughter, Elisabeth, told the New York Times that members of the Murdoch family had become embarrassed by Fox's output: "I am by no means alone within the family or the company in being ashamed and sickened by Roger Ailes's (Fox television boss) horrendous and sustained disregard of the journalistic standards that News Corp, its founder and every other global media business aspires to."

      Disrespectful is right. But I wonder why Obama is wasting more precious time trying to win over Republicans? 15 months not enough? Does he think he'll win over all of the teabaggers by doing this interview? Had the chance to push forth his agenda-you know the one we voted for-and BLEW IT!! His ideal of bi-partisanship failed from day one. Obama insists on trying to reach an unattainable agreement! Can't he see the Republicans are desperate for his administration to fail which is why they have become "NONONO" party? That is all they care about! These are supposed to be the "Country First" people? Wasting four years stonewalling so they regain power? That's bullshit! Can't believe I'm going to say this but-Obama needs a set of George Bush's balls right now. Push through a fucking war that was completely unneccesary and cost this country dearly in lives and revenue. But this Obama can't get our health care through because he's busy trying to reason with the unreasonable.
      Obama+Fox news=Another huge waste of time!

      Also watch Michael Moore's "Capitalism-A Love Story" if your brains can handle it. Not biased. History of the corruption and greed that overtook this country and led to the situation we are now in. Nothing about this points to Obama. That shit started in the 1980s. Reagan started it and Bush took it all the way home. All fingers point to Republicans! If Obama had a backbone and did what he said he would do he would FIX IT.



    66. 166

      Attention Republicans! You lost! Stop hating on "our" president and get a better candidate next time. Why does he have to be Jesus, Hitler, or a Messiah to beat your sorry asses? Get over it. Its pathetic and it doesn't help "our" country. Grow the fuck up!



    67. 167

      OH GASP!!!! Obama actually is getting some hard questions for once? The horror of it all! The last time I checked he is not a KING! As a reporter it is HIS JOB to get answers out of our President, and if Obama is dodging the questions like he ALWAYS does! Then its a reprters to get him to answer. I wish other "journalists" would not give him a free pass.

      This was the FIRST interview where this failed President was asked to explain his failed policies, and nit cuddled by the mainstream liberal media lapdogs, so ofcourse you would be upset bitch, Bret Bauier was brilliant! ca NOT WAIT till 2012 when this empty suit gets send back to Chicago! useless!

    73. 173

      PEREZ, I KNOW YOU AERN'T A JOURNALIST, BUTA BLOGGER. DID YOU WATCH THIS INTERVIEW? obama coudn't answer a single question so he would go in dibitribes tht made no sense and bret had a limited number of minutes to ask 2 questions. obama clearly was caught off gurad on questions he couldn't answer and wasted time. you really should watch the entire clip befroe you blame fox. i'm not even a fox fan, but obama lookws foolish. not this bret dude.



    74. 174

      This should come as no surprise from the lying thugs who represent Fox "News." Republicans are divided into two groups; one group who churns out the lies, the other group who believes those lies. That is why nothing gets done in this country.



    75. 175

      Way to go, Bret!!! It's not like that fool has anything of substance to say anyway. Face it, libs….your guy is a joke and you all got "punked."



    76. 176

      Let's face it FOX news is for rednecks, racists, homophobes, child molesters and hypocrites. Why would anyone be surprised at the shitty people they employ?
