All exaggerations aside, George W. Bush is a perfect example. By any rational analysis (which apparently, many Republicans are not capable of), President Bush is a liberal. Sure he is a pious man and he's moderately committed to the War in Iraq, but that alone does not make him a conservative. The reality is that President Bush is no more conservative than, say, Franklin D. Roosevelt. In fact, fifty years ago, President Bush would likely have been a somewhat "liberal" member of the Democrat Party! But today, the Left portrays President Bush as the most ultra-right-wing extremist conservative ever to walk the face of the earth. I'd be laughing if it all wasn't so sad.
(Before all the pro-Bush/pro-GOP flames start, don't get me wrong: I'm not suggesting that we should have elected that treasonous bastard, John F. Kerry. I did vote for President Bush. But I would have preferred to have voted for a true conservative, rather than a "lite liberal.")
But to get back to the point about Fox News, have any of you listened to their syndicated radio news reports? I was excited when I heard that KNEW in the Bay Area (the new radio home of Michael Savage) was switching away from CNN to Fox for their half-hour news breaks. I thought I'd finally get some fair news, compared to ABC's crap on KSFO (the other "conservative" radio station) and KNEW's previous CNN propaganda. Wrong! Fox's radio news is practically indistinguishable from any of the other network "spews" with plenty of Liberal spin and slant. In fact, some female Fox new reader had the gall to announce Bin Laden's last Al jazeera broadcast as, and I quote, "the latest video postcard from everyone's favorite terrorist, Osama Bin!" as if he was some kind of Hollywood hip-hop rap star. I almost puked in my truck I was so disgusted.
Fox and Fox cable are different..
Is it possible that we could be twins separated at birth? ;o)
I will take issue with you on one point, there is nothing "lite" about his liberalism. I see him as as the first fundamentalist Christian liberal.
