I am literally nautious...when did fox news OVERTLY become republican mouthpiece?

[Ted Striker]

I'm getting off right now.

[Imran Siddiqui]

He says, though, that he is a registered Democrat.

Yeah, sure.

And I wonder if Fox ever champions and cheers liberal Republicans like Senator Lincoln Chaffee or Senator Olympia Snow?

Um, no. Because the Dems keep losing elections, the Repubs have nothing to fear.

[Imran Siddiqui]

You know, the Republicans kept losing elections in the 60s... and badly, until the moderate, Nixon, won in 1968.

I think the left is afraid of entrepreneurialism. FOX is tearing up the competition because they are serving what people want.
( FAIR AND BALANCED : FAIRly to the right AND BALANCED against the left wing monoliths)
To those that decry the right-lean of FOX, I wonder; do you admit the left-lean of ABC, NBC CBS, CNN AND MOST OF ALL PBS that propagates against me WITH MY OWN TAX DOLLARS!?!?!?
The rich are despised by the left because they are successful. Most ‘rich’ are small business owners and first generation wealth. Well, not including the Kennedy's and Kerry’s. (ok, ok and the Bushies)
The favorite argument is that the rich should ‘pay their fair share’ vis-à-vis taxes. What would be fair? If the top 10% paid 50% of the tax burden for the nation? 65%? 85% would you think that fair? If you are grinning, you already know that the top 10% do pay 90% of this nations tax burden. Stinkin rich people.

Pro choice? I’m pro choice, if you’re talking about choosing the protection of the 2nd amendment. If you are talking about allowing me to allocated a portion of my tax dollar as a voucher to get my kids out of a failing public education system and into a school that has to answer to me as a paying patron. Pro choice? You mean I could choose to invest a portion of my Social Security into the market which has NEVER underperformed the existing SS return for any 10 year period, including the great depression?
Is the left in favor of granting me those choices?

GO FOX

MNG got himself a DL?

And since the top 10% control 90% of this nation's wealth, I don't feel sorry for them.

Hah. The party that sneers at Walmart shoppers as being Republicans cannot possibly understand Joe Sixpack. The Dems are elitist snobs who are completely out of touch with the so-called "common man."

I can't believe I am sayign this, but at this point-the common man is completley ignorant of what is REALLY going on-this goes for both dems and reps. The common man needs to be lead, if not we would not have a system of goverment that is built on jerry mandering and an electorial college to make it look like we elect our officials when we don't.


IF ONLY THE POPULACE WAS NOT SO ****ING APATHETIC!!!! LOOK INTO THE FACTS A LITTLE ON YOUR OWN AMERICA! But no one cares... if people simply CARED and looked into the facts at all from multiple sources with a critical lense we could solve 90% of Americas govermental problems overnight.. but no one cares. Everyone is too busy doing their own thing to give a rats ass about the system of goverment that they help to prop up by their apathy and occasional support.

I almost feel sorry for the American people... I don't want to blame the victims for the bad things that happen to them but they could stop it if they would JUST CARE ENOUGH TO DO SO!

People have dreamed and fought fought and died for the kind of freedom we have had for millenium and we can't be bothered to get our fat asses off the couch to do something to keep this precious gift we have..... we live in the pinnicle of prosperity, wealth and freedom and we are going to let it slip through our fingers... we already are.

I would laugh except of course, i'm American too....
ON THE BRIGHT SIDE the bread and circuses will last through most of my life, if I ever have kids though-they are quite ****ed.

[Q Classic]

Q, I think you over-interpreted my remarks...

er...

i wasn't serious in that post. but, okay.

[Odin]

The Media isn't pro-right or pro-left, it is pro-ratings, which means they would rather show crap if it gets ratingsrather than real news, which is why I listen to Minnesota Public Radio(personally, the only good liberal radio guy is Ed Schultz, the rest seem to be raving conspiracy theorists that sound like some of the nutties at the Democratic Underground forum).

me either, but no need to hate 'em. I found out yesterday what a DL was. So what is a MNG?

[Q Classic]

MNG is a two trick pony, a conservative poster who orgasms over apple and frequently posts on how God is everywhere or something like that.

Only one of the two types things he posts is generally correct, and it sure as hell isn't Apple.

stands for mr. nice guy, btw.

[bayraven]

Vesayen,
I would say you're right but for the pessimism, and the parallel with Rome is a good one. I wish that the apathetic blob could listen to the filters and KNOW they were filters.
As far as doing away with the electoral college, are we ready for Athenian Democracy or would you keep the representative republic as it is?

V, what do you expect from a network who constantaly has Old Glory waving proudly in the upper left of the screen. I am sure you noticed it.

What we REALLY need is a network that proudly flys the hammer and sickle on the screen for you leftist types. You can then tune in to unending propaganda, conspiracy theories and Bush bashing, and be wholly entertained.

Could centrist types like me get something with a UN flag instead?

[bayraven]

middle of the roaders get hit by traffic going each way.
I believe the UN is about to go the way of the League of Nations; death by annulment. I admit American Jingoism when it comes to our subjegation to the UN. it looks like they were proffiting from the butcher of bahgdad while trying to stop US from stopping him?
