Obama was not just offering opinion. He tried to prevent Foxnews from doing it's job. That's an attack on the freedom of the press, and that's why Fox's competition stood up to Obama's totalitarian inclinations and told him that he couldn't do that. He was most certainly doing more than offering his opinion. And if you ihtnk those actions are no different than stating an opinion, perhaps you are the one who can't be helped.
You cannot repudiate me by posting evidence that Trump is a jerk, because I am not denying that. We agree on that. Where we disagree, is that you are fine with it, when Obama does the same things. Just like this women's rights march, none of those women care what Bill Clinton or Ted Kennedy did, but they are horrified about what Trump said. So it's OK when Democrats objectify women, it's only an issue when Republicans do it? It's a joke.

We are dealing with the Now.. you cant repudiate me as well by posting evidence of others short comings as an excuses for the justification to Defend The Trump Administration
Trumps Press Secretary and Trump himself said they are at war with the media
Yet White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs acknowledged to Fox News’ White House Correspondent Major Garrett that a low level Treasury staffer made a mistake in attempting to exclude Fox from the pool interviews.
And from this you conclude the following
"He tried to prevent Foxnews from doing it's job. That's an attack on the freedom of the press, and that's why Fox's competition stood up to Obama's totalitarian inclinations"
but Have Zero issues with Trumps Press Secretary statements Or Trumps comments about the media Shocking

"We are dealing with the Now"
Oh, that's perfect! So when Obama blamed Bush for everything that went wrong for 8 years, did you ever fault Obama for not "dealing with the now"? So it's OK when liberals criticize retroactively, but it's wrong when I do it.
And I'm not criticizing Warren Harding here. Obama is not ancient history - yet.
That was funny.

""He tried to prevent Foxnews from doing it's job" The entire press corps apparently agreed with me, because they all told Obama he could not exclude Foxnews this way. I guess you know more than they do about what happened.
"but Have Zero issues with Trumps Press Secretary statements "
I have no issues with those statements? I refer you to post #5 on this thread...I said the following, in reference to the press secretary:
"It was an idiotic thing to say. What gain is there, to lying about something so stupid and unimportant?"
I called Trump's press secretary an idiot, a liar, and stupid. Yet according to you, I have nothing to say about his behavior.
Do you see how blindly partisan you are? You can't even see where I am agreeing with you. Put down the Kool Aid for two seconds, and think.

Yes we were on the same page then another comparison thats clearly Bias
Trump : idiot, a liar, and stupid
Obama : totalitarian inclinations
Id be more inclined to agree if you just moved Trump down and Obama up

My opinion of Trump as a person could not be any lower.
My opinions of Obama are based on the sum of all his actions, good and bad. When someone like you gives him credit for everything that went right, and ignores everything that went wrong, I would imagine he would look pretty awesome in that view. I choose to look at everything he did. In that light, there were some huge failures.
