Fox & Friends Just Lost ME (Vanity)

I like this bumper sticker: Choose life, your mother did.

As long as we are piling on vanity, I just came back from the gym where CNN and Fox were on side by side. As I listened to Fox I noticed that about every two minutes there was a picture of Hillary on CNN. It seemed to be different stories each time, health care, taxes, you name it but it was always Hillary all the time...

There's a reason that it's named the "Clinton News Network..." Are you surprised?

If you really want to forget politics and feel good, try this nice little piece of eye candy on TLC:

Good to know. On the contrary, no apologies needed. Valuable information imparted.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

O'Reilly also says things like "the right wing is just as bad (or guilty)", etc. but provides no evidence of what he is saying about the "right wing".

O'Reilly should remember back when the clinton's were in office, he used to get AUDITED every year by the IRS.

That, actually, is an agreement (widely held and respected) between both the supporters of abortion as well as its opponents--as well as the media--regarding how each side will refer to the other.

Which is why there's the "Pro-Life side, and the "Pro-Baby-Murderers" side.

Actually I already discovered 'The Take Home Chef.' I always wondered if people ever turn him down.

I think Gretchen is rather plain looking. I have more hots for Julie Banderas, Reena Ninan, and Molly Line.

I mis-keyed the channel, and wound up on CNN, rather than FNS one morning, and caught sight of the host of "Robin & Company." Man, she's absolutely stunning! But of coure then she started talking and ruined everything...

Here is the FNC bio on E.D. Hill

E.D. Hill joined FOX News Channel (FNC) in March of 1998. Hill anchors "FOX News Live" from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. ET. Prior to "FOX News Live," Hill was co-anchor on the network's weekday morning program "FOX & Friends."

Prior to joining FNC, Hill was a contributing reporter for ABC News' "Good Morning America" from 1995 to 1998 covering family issues. Before that, she served as the morning and noon anchor for ABC's flagship station in New York, WABC-TV.

Prior to WABC-TV, Hill was WHDH-TV's (NBC-Boston, MA) mid-day news anchor, where she won a local EMMY Award for "Outstanding News Special." Earlier in her career, Hill served as a business anchor for CBS Morning News and CBS Radio Network and was the anchor for WPXI-TV's (NBC-Pittsburgh, PA) evening newscasts.

A graduate of University of Texas and mother of eight children, Hill is also the recipient of a Golden Quill Award for live spot news reporting.

I know I wouldn't, whatever the question was. ;-D

[MarkL]

I'd love a channel that featured "The Michelle Malkin Show," "The CNS News Hour" and, just for fun, "Throwing Little Green Footballs."

And how about a weekly show called "A Woman's Perspective," with Michelle, Mona Charen, Ann Coulter, Peggy Noonan, and Phylis Schlafley? I'd LOVE to see that sort of chat show!

[MarkL]

What's the problem? Two out of three is not bad. E.D. by the way was a Democrat.

So were Charlton Heston, Ronald Reagan, and Zell Miller.

The addition of Gretchen to Fox and Friends has been a train wreck. She just does not fit well with Steve and Brian. She seems like a nice woman but if they want to replace E.D. with a great personality, bring back Juliet Huddy.

E.D. used to try to keep Steve and Brian under control. Their sillines is boring.

I like Juliet, but she's no E.D. E.D. has a way of "seducing" the people she interviews as "just some blonde info-babe," but she was able to slam them into reality, and get around their spin. On more than one occassion, I saw her interviewing people who were trying not to answer her questions, and she simply wouldn't allow it.

She's terrific, and I miss her in the mornings on FnF, but with that developing baseball team that she calls a family, I can understand why she needs to start later in the day.

"That, actually, is an agreement (widely held and respected) between both the supporters of abortion as well as its opponents--as well as the media--regarding how each side will refer to the other.

Wrong. The term "Pro-life" is used far less frequently by "pro-Choicers" than "anti-abortion." I would say the The same is true of the press, but that would be redudndant.

[cookcounty]

"Pro-choice implies the baby gets a choice."

"pro-Choice" is a weasel word. The term "choice" requires and object (or multiple objects). I love to play games with folks who ask if I'm pro choice and I say yes and go on to explain why educational options for parents are so important and why we should defend their choice.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

I honestly find the show unwatchable without E.D. I don't know why the guys clown around so much. They make the show seem ridiculous. I've been listening to my local radio guy in the morning. Sometimes in the car, I'll play CD's. I never used to do that because I thought I'd miss something on the news. Now I prefer to miss it.

[AppyPappy]

No No. If you are for "choice" in abortion, you are pro-choice but if you are for choice in education, you are anti-education.

Same as it ever was

[ElPatriota]

..I don't know why the guys clown around so much. They make the show seem ridiculous...

With E.D. they looked "funny," (She gave the show weight, caliber, presence). Without her and just bimbos instead, you're right, they look ridiculous. :)

[mombonn]

I've tried to give her the benefit of the doubt, but she's as plastic as can be. I heard the "correction" this morning, but thought she was correcting her own comment.

Whatever.

I have hardly watched F&F since the election last week, and have turned the tv off for the balance of the day.

F&F has become too full of itself. The inane tag "and a little bit of fun" is already old.

I don't understand why they gave the middle chair to Gretchen. I don't understand why they didn't have a goodbye show for E.D.

Nevertheless, life is more fun with less tv.

"Isn't legally carrying a concealed weapon also a choice issue?"

I live in Texas. It is encouraged.
