All this shows desparation and immaturity on behalf of the administration...It is a last resort for them...so let them fire away..they are their own worst enemy

Not true (post above).

The WH has already made it's point -- won it's "war," against Fox non-news.

I can only guess this clip and first post comes from a Fox News viewer.

They are losing the war and will continue to do so as long as they continue their whining tirade. Face it, when you are a liberal democrat president and people like Helen Thomas, Donny Deutsch, and even Susan Estrich are taking the side of FOX news over your administration then you have lost.
