The United States Presidency is thought to be above petty politics, in fact it’s rare that a president takes on private citizens. With “change” comes a president who will use the power of his office (’cause he ain’t bad enough to do it himself) and target those who dissent.
The ill will between the White House and Glenn Beck is no secret. The popular Fox News host has said he believes President Obama of having “a deep-seated hatred of white people” and mounted relentless on-air campaigns against two administration officials. After he took Van Jones, the “green jobs czar,” and Yosi Sergant, the communications director at the National Endowment of Arts, to task for what Beck said was inappropriate political work, both men quickly resigned.
But the Obama-Beck battle could become a full-scale war as Beck trains his sights on White House confidante Valerie Jarrett and the White House moves to defend her.
Beck must be perilously close to something on Jarrett. While Bush would’ve had a field day going after his many liberal haters and instead took the high road , Barack Obama’s administration is headed straight to the gutter going after Beck.
He went after Rush and just made him more popular. Some people just don’t learn.
