I quit watching it awhile ago, not because of Palin. The birth certificate was a big issue.

...I’d hate to see any of the policies advocated by his “think tank” ever see the light of day.

Your analysis and apprehension are spot on; unfortunately too late however. Podesta's CAP has been writing this administration's agenda before the election was over. His evil is a large part of what has been unleashed against our Republic over the past couple of years, hence my prior comment.

Good points.

Greta is the only FNC host worth watching.

FNC is taking its viewers for granted with the same old, same old every night - Krathammer, Juan Williams, Rove, Perino, Morris. The same crap over and over and over.

It was exasperating to watch a desk full of panelists, all of whose brains seem to function well - talk about job losses and the reason for them, in every single possible way except the one which is the reason for no jobs:

We’re sending our jobs to other countries and buying far to many imports.

It’s not complicated. But it seems a forbidden subject.

Until we wake up and do something about our trade deficit, our economy will continue to implode.

Like your posts.

Might want to include a couple of lines in red that Obama poignantly won't reveal about his background/childhood. Kind of like, "We can fill in the blanks about Sarah, but who is this guy who hides his identity/background?"

Granted, no natural born/valid birth certificate is dispositive, but a couple more blank lines about who he is kind of emphasizes the point.

When will enough be enough? We get the freakin’ point already.

I stopped watching FNC too. If you want to waste three hours every night watching a repeat of the previous night's three hours, it's your business.

The truth is FNC has gone downhill the past 18 months. The only reliable conservative is Hannity and he couldn't articulate conservative philosophy to save his life, but “you re a great American, fish hawk.”

Speak for yourself please.

I never get tired of reading those. It’s an important point to keep hammering imho.

To each their own. There comes a point where to much is too much. And I’ve reached mine.

I noted on an earlier post concerning the same FOX panel that Kimberly Strassel (Princeton) has joined Krauthammer (Harvard), Frum (Dartmouth), and Will (Oxford and Princeton) in dissing Palin. I didn’t realize William Kristol (Harvard) was also on the panel and joined in belittling Palin.

Princeton-Harvard-Dartmouth-Oxford and Princeton-Harvard all think Palin (Idaho) manifestly unfit for the presidency. Does anyone else notice a trend here? The stench of insufferable elitist conceit is overwhelming coming from this pack of pseudo-conservative RINO’s. I’m watching FOX less and less these days.

Chris Wallace (Harvard) better watch his apostacy, or he’ll be ostracised at alumni get-togethers. Mara Liasson (Brown) needs to be careful as well; her comments about Palin were nowhere near as critical as necessary to remain in good standing with the faculty and alums of that other Ivy League institution.

As the campaign silly season rolls on, expect pundits of this ilk to continue to coalesce around Romney (Harvard) or start trying to urge Jindal (Brown) into the race. They’ll sniff down their noses at Perry (Texas A & M), Jeb Bush (University of Texas) or Pawlenty (Minnesota). Sorry, these guys just don’t have what it takes. If they’d been denizens of the punditocracy at the time, they would all have likely scoffed at the preposterous candidacy of a fellow with a degree from a podunk college like Eureka College back in 1980.

Are FOX’s ratings going down? I hardly ever have it on anymore. Seems they are going a little too far to show how tolerant they are of libs. Good example was BOR suck-fest 2 night interview with Jon Stewart. I get sick of that kind of stuff.

Good Points.

Don't forget Daniels (although wifey said No) who is a Princeton grad and Huntsman (Penn).

Between 1944 and 1989 we had one Ivy League President - Kennedy. For the past 23 years we have had nothing but Ivy League Presidents and I believe we are worse for it.

Actually, I saw some numbers that showed that CNN was gaining on FNC but it could have had to do with coverage of the unrest in Egypt and Libya. FNC’s foreign coverage is, well ... nonexistent.

I wanted to see coverage of the tornadoes but had to go to CNN. Fox had their lineup and that was that. I switched between cnn and twc(nbc)

Really?

FNC has over twice the audience CNN has.

http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2011/06/03/cable-news-ratings-for-thursday-june-2-2011/94654/

FNC crushes CNN consistently.

When I first began watching Fox News, my hubby came up the stairs, Shep Smith was on, and his question was, "who's the Ken doll?". I never watch Smith, can't stand him.

I have begun watching a lot of Fox Business and am starting to like it better than the regular Fox News station. I love Stuart Varney's show, but it starts at 6:20 a.m. pacific time, so I don't always get a chance to see it. Love his panel (or "company" as they are known on his show). I also loved Brit Hume.

Fox has changed and not for the better. Pretty much everyone on there has become monotonous and boring. I find it hard to watch - they’re not much different than CNN. Especially sick of “the panel”.

BINGO. You hit the nail on the head. All of these snobs just can't stand the possibility of someone who is not from the "right school" even getting close to the presidency.

On a side note, my youngest daughter got her degree at Washington State University (WSU) which is about 7-8 miles from the University of Idaho. Both schools are in farm country; but, my daughter got a decent education at Wazoo, and I don't think there is anything wrong with the University of Idaho.

We seem to have so many divides in this country at the moment. Dem/Rep; Conservative/Liberal-Progressive/makers-takers/and now; East Coast Ivy Colleges vs. the rest of the U.S.
