FOX is their big break through..........an entire network that is willing to lie just like they think......its a match made in heaven. You will never convince him otherwise. He's a small town guy with some education who doesn't get out much. And God forbid if anyone in his circle disagrees with him.

OK...I was just watching Fox...the Beltway Boys was on. Fred Barnes of the far right Weekly Standard and this other guy, Mort Kondracke, who is presented as a NPR correspondent and is there to supposedly provide the opposing view. The NPR "liberal" a) supports SS privatization with anectodal stock market information, b) he defends John Bolton's appointment to the UN and c) points out yet another example of Hillary's move to the right to setup 2008. It's not even a debate. Barnes smiles and rides the same points. It's a joke.


Yeah.........I had no idea what he was talking about when he was rattling off who is liberal and who is not. The only liberal I've seen on FOX News is Colmes. Everyone else is conservative or hides their liberal views. Of course, you have to remember that DR sees himself as a moderate. So O'Reilly must look liberal to him.

However, what's a complete joke is the fair and balanced ca ca they provide. The fact they he lies and says it is f and b when it isn't is not a perception problem but rather a morality issue.

Kondracke is a moderate. Always has been. He is not presented as an NPR correspondent. YOu can learn something about him by watching the movie "Saving Millie" on Sunday night.

This show is an editorial piece and should be thought of as such.

But all three of the points you mention are great developments, aren't they? It is just fantastic that America elected a true, conservative leader who is taking charge and cleaning up the mess liberals left in 2000, don't you agree?
