Fox is treating conservatives like the GOPe treats conservatives. As Fox moves to the left, there will be market consequences and the rise of a new venue for people who want real news and patriotic commentary.

Wallace made the point of what would we think if Pelosi invited one of Bush's enemies to speak.

Pretty much said to me that he acknowledges that Netanyahu is one of Obama's enemies! I really don't think Bush would've minded if Pelosi had invited one of our allies to speak!

Amazing what that “minority” percentage ownership of
Fox News by the house of Saud can control, isn’t it?

Kingdom Holding Company holds a significant amount of
News Corp. Stock, the Parent Company to Fox News

Finally got a new tv...and now I know the old one wasn’t broken. Shep Smith wears orange makeup and purple lipstick. I know everyone on TV gets “made-up” to give them color and definition...but I think he is really going overboard.

This is only Shephard Smith and Chris Wallace - they are the liberals of Fox News - This is how the liberals will strive to mischaracterize Fox News. Shepard and wlaace are not the true representation of Fox so take what both have to say with a grain of salt.

Columbia U invited Achmadinejad to speak and the left just gushed all over him. Even after he insisted there are no homos in Iran.

When Obama went to war in Libya he didn’t bother to consult with Congress - and that is a constitutional duty and a much more serious action.

When Pelosi went to see Assad in Syria during the Bush administration she did so without consulting the president.

And there are many more similar examples.

The dens have elevated dissing the repubs into an art form.

My thoughts too.

Wallace and Smith don't speak for all of the opinion makers at Fox.

The headline is misleading.

People shouldn't fall for it.

The back-door counter negotiations Kerry and the rest of the Dems carried on with the Sandinistas during the Reagan administration were a much more severe attack on the Executive’s foreign policy powers.

Still cracks me up remembering how Ortega went to Moscow right after the House blocked Reagan... and the Dems then had to reverse themselves.

Obama is very afraid of not being able to control the message. Bibi will come here with facts, photographs, and evidence that we are being lied to by our president.

Oh hogwash!

THE HOUSE DOES NOT NEED PERMISSION FROM OBAMA TO INVITE ANYBODY TO SPEAK BEFORE A JOINT SESSION.

Please check the Constitution .. we have 3 units of equal power. That means the Congress does not need to ask the WH if it can invite somebody to speak before it.

If some leftist people at FOX are upset about it .. oh well. They are entitled to their opinion .. but to say their ill-advised comments will “sink FOX” is just plain ignorance.

But they will fall for it. Libs HATE FoxNews and will trumpet any news that disparages FoxNews.

I have read that, when Netanyahu addresses Congress for the third time, he will share that distinction with only one other head of state, Winston Churchill.

I hope Bibi is aware of this & delivers a Churchillian warning to the U.S. and Western nations; that we are menaced by something even worse than communism, which is Islam in all its murderous manifestations throughout the world.

I also hope he tells Obama to go back to his sandbox and let the adults run the show.

If the Prime Minister of Israel was from the Labor Party who was coming to announce a withdrawal to the 1967 borders, turning the IDF into a small constabulary force armed with only small weapons,placing any Israelis past the 1967 borders under Palestinian authority, and of course allowing unrestricted “right of return” for so called Arab refugees right before the Israeli election then I’m sure there would be no problem. Since it’s a Likud Prime Minister who won’t go for the failed policy of land for peace then everyone is upset by such a controversy. Israel is always required to make concessions right off the bat before negotiations with no guarantees as confidence building measures yet the Palestinians are never asked to refrain from the national sport of Jew murder.

All Push-Back will be immediately met with shrillness and caterwauling from rabid and closet commies.

Not to mention racism. Boner's push-back is a pleasant surprise to me too.

“Wallace made the point of what would we think if Pelosi invited one of Bush’s enemies to speak.”

So he views the leader of Israel as an enemy? I guess that the way The Carp views the world, anyone that Obola doesn’t “like.” is an enemy of our country.
