This is why I may drop my Dish Network service soon...I know that The Obama paid for a channel in his holy, messianic name (the height of arrogance) but why couldn't he have done this on another service like Charter, or Comcast, or Direct TV? He just HAD to pick Dish so that I'd have to see his damn channel every time I hit "Program Guide"...maybe there's some way that I can filter it out...
The Obama channel
Channel 73 on the Dish Network is now The Obama Channel.
Obama's media buying strategy has been marked by a willingness to work the angles and to try to pick up a few votes at the margins. The decision to go to everything from extensive radio buys to odd-hour infomercials reflects the fact that the campaign media buyers spend a lot of time thinking about how much persuasion any given dollar can buy, and given a very cheap format — late night cable channels that need filler, for instance — will settle for a thimblefull of persuasion.
The satellite channel is the latest of these marginal gambits: Three readers from different parts of the country email that Channel 073-00 on the Dish Network is now labeled OBAMA.
...
"DISH Network Channel 73 is paid advertising by the Obama campaign and is not an endorsement of Senator Obama by DISH Network. DISH Network made the same offer to the McCain campaign, an offer that remains open," Dish Network spokesman Parker McConachie emailed Politico.

Further, its not like the All Barack Channel (ABC), the Nothing but Barack Channel (NBC), and cBS (the Barack Show) don't have enough positive, inspiring, and uplifting shows about The Obama. (Not to mention pMSNBC which makes no excuses for being entirely supporting of The Obama).

We have Dish Network in our break room at work and someone mentioned this channel at work. We flipped it over and sure enough, Obamamessiah is on the TV. So damn glad I have DirectTV.

I saw this last night and told my wife to call and have it removed. I'm not sure what will happen. If I had wanted filth coming into my house, I would have subscribed to sCinamax.
What if my children stumble upon this channel?

If your kids do happen to stumble upon this channel I'll have to defer to another thread for the results:
I really find this disturbing.
The Children of the Corn The Obama singing their praises of the messiah. I'm sure the parents all teach them to sing Christmas Carols during the Yuletide season too (sarcasm)...the parents are probably all from the Crystal Halls of Academia...or they're old hippies. At any rate these brainwashed children will be ruined for the rest of their lives...and to think these are the folk I'm depending on to pay for my social security...the future's bleak...
Try not to puke when listening to this shit; I could not help but think of this as some kind of production that Kim Jong mentally-ill enjoys as the starving North Korean children sing to him.

As I was out of the
country mommy partry for the past several weeks, I was a bit shocked to find Marxist TV on DishNetwork. It does piss me off. I am very tempted to cancel and move over to DirecTV now.
