Doesn’t matter - the press will take that headline and pound it for over a week.

When the revolution starts, has anyone called dibs on the “journalists” yet?

How fair-and-balanced quoting Sen. Gary Stevens. Is Fox trying to compete with NBC?

I think she should get a medal for firing his sorry a** for not firing the trooper. (albeit, she actually fired him for budget reasons).. The bastard deserved to be arrested, and instead, the good-old-boy network protected him. She fought the establishment system.

The only reason to release the report on a Friday evening of a horrible week on the stock market is because their is no real substance to the charge.

I wonder if Ronald Reagan abused his power by firing thousands of Professional Air Traffic Control employees. Times seem to have really changed.

If some jacka$$ tasers my 10 year old nephew I’ll abuse my power too. Most Americans agree with her.
