It's the Liberals that resort to namecalling, diversions, and accusing everyone else of "hate" when the argument isn't going their way. In politics and other areas of life.

I totally agree with this statement. We can witness it on this very thread as well as in the liberal pep-rally books like Franken's and David Korn's.

It is a sophomoric approach to politics -- if you lack admirable qualities, don't fix your own problems by developing those qualities -- instead, build yourself up by tearing others down. In the long run this method doesn't work for 7th graders, and I believe it has failed and will continue to fail for the liberals.

What's worse is that he typlifies the conservative voice in this country.........filled with bile, anger, hypocrisy and hatred. If you all think you are making your case, you're not.

Totally off the mark. I've never heard him speak "hatefully" about anyone on his show. He may demonstrate whomever he is referring to is an idiot, or at worst mock them, but you don't hear him calling people names, suggesting they should be stoned etc.


What are you talking about? Calling someone an idiot is hardly uplifting. Mocking someone IS hateful. My experience has been that conservatives have this habit of minimizing the bad antics of their own and exaggerating those of the left. For a while, you all got away with that garbage but no longer.

Spend 20 hours watching FOX and then 20 hours watching say CNBC. If you don't see a difference in the level of professionalism with CNBC having a much higher standard, and the higher incidence of liberal baiting and attacking on FOX, then I give up.

I am actually annoyed by the restraint shown by CNN and CNBC when it comes to the right and FOX. I think they need to take off their gloves much like FOX has done but I realize tat they are choosing to remain professional and not sink to FOX's level.

I'll tell you another thing.......I really don't identify with the Americanism promoted by FOX and the right. I grew up in a very different country from you all. Frankly, I am of a growing conviction, we should have let the country splinter permanently back in 1860. There are some very fundamental differences between the two sides and they appear to have grown much stronger in recent years.
