Fox News has more balance than the other networks, though I grant that it is slanted to the right.

We certainly sit in different places in the living room when we watch news. Fox News by even its own admission, not terribly public mind you, is a RW media outlet. Just watch a day's worth and compare it to any of the large networks or CNN or MSNBC. It's a no-brainer, to use the cliche of the day.

I thought she aquitted herself well enough, of the segments I saw anyway. I only saw one of Obama's segments, the second one. He was OK but I was hoping he would make the greater good argument for his tax policy rather than the fairness argument.

Democrats can make a good and reasonable argument for the redistribution of wealth idea. They just don't do it and remain stuck on an appeal. Appealing to 'fairness' when trying to get people to part with their money, usually falls on deaf ears.....including my own. To me it's even somewhat insulting.
