Okay, this has gone far enough.

On the heels of the White House’s failed attempt to ban Fox News from being able to interview Kenneth “Pay Czar” Feinberg (while allowing all other networks to interview him), a question begs to be asked:

Obama, why don’t you pick on someone your own size?

And by your “own size” I mean someone roughly the size of a 10-year-old girl. Because if you’re that thin skinned, if you are that sensitive to criticism, that’s exactly what you are: A little, prissy girl.

You heard me.

In all seriousness, methinks it should have been YOU, not Michelle, photographed hula-hooping on the White House lawn last week.

Everyone in society faces some sort of criticism. Athletes, movie stars, musicians, novelists, stand-up comedians, and even people who inexplicably choose to get up on stage to prove they can dance knowingly put themselves out there for criticism. Like it or not, it comes with the territory.

Teachers face criticism from students and parents.

Waiters and waitresses face criticism from customers.

Janitors face criticism if they miss a spot while cleaning.

Heck, I’m going to face criticism from those who disagree with me just for writing this.

We may not like criticism, but none of us are immune to it.

And then there’s you.

You are the freakin’ President of the United States. Every president before you, even beloved ones, has had to face criticism. But YOU can’t handle it? You can’t stand having ONE news network actually ask you tough questions and hold you accountable? Why should you be ANY different than any other individual who has held your office (or any political office, for that matter)?

It’s not like you face criticism everywhere you go.

CNN, MSNBC and the like kiss your feet. You go on Leno and Letterman and they practically swoon over you. You surround yourself with people who, if you asked them what your dirty socks smelled like, would say they smelled like a flower-filled garden with just a hint of cinnamon and peppermint.

You are already sheltered from the elements of society who disagree with you. The next time you have a face-to-face chat with someone like “Joe the Plumber” will be when you’re back on the campaign trail (if then). But that’s apparently not enough. If you had your way you would ban Fox News and all conservative-talk radio. Heck, you’re already trying.

You’re at war with Fox News. You’ve tried banning them once. You’ve put allies into key positions at the FCC, and your actions against Fox as of late would lead one to believe, with little convincing, that your motives for doing so is to one day silence Rush Limbaugh and company.

Grow a backbone, for crying out loud.

You can portray Fox, Limbaugh, Beck and the rest as blowhards if you like. You have lots of voting citizens who agree with you. I mean, you DID get elected, right? But it doesn’t matter what your antagonists are or are not. They have the First Amendment right to “calls them like they sees them.” They have the right to disagree with you.

Why? Because this is America.

You prissy, whiny, spineless, little girl.
