13. Oh, please.
"The kindest of terms you're sometimes referred to out in America is a 'socialist.' The worst of which I've heard you called is 'Nazi.' Are you aware the of the level of enmity that crosses the airwaves, that people have made part of their daily conversation about you?"

This clearly refers to RW radio. I don't even listen to Limbaugh, Beck or any of their ilk, and I know that's what they say on their shows. And Glenn Beck had a radio show for much longer than he has had a TV show. Just because Smith didn't add "and TV" doesn't mean it wasn't implied.

So Smith is only citing and thus magnifying hate filled criticism without mentioning substantive LW criticism of policy, Smith then becomes part of the bubble distorting the President's political center of gravity.

Do you honestly think Obama isn't aware of LW criticism of him? He's mentioned their critiques before.
