Yeah, I’m listening to Catherine Herridge (sp) on FOX, and she sounds so negative. I think I am going to have to mute FOX.

My analysis of FOX lately is that they feel burned by the Democrat panty-waists not showing up for their debate (remember? B. Hussein Obama and the Breck Girl refused to show up...so Hitlery followed suit and the whole Democrat debate that was a "Fox Exclusive" went down the tubes)...anyway, FOX and their brass are so perturbed by that episode, that they've given a message to their people: "go the extra mile to give the Democrat point of view!"

Now, maybe not an explicit order--but definitely a message to make sure the 'rats' side is heard--FOX does not want to be on the "outs" if a Democrat President is elected.

Frankly, I think they ought to stick to their "fair and balanced" guns--but hey, cable news is a BUSINESS...

That is my theory on the more left-leaning FOX these days. I still think they're loads better than CNNMSNBCABCPBS, ETC.

I quit watching Shep during Katrina, never went back, he was so inaccurate and so opinionated I just walk away. Won’t watch him again.

Woah - cspan is recapping the pinko maddness... said one is facing assault charges for hitting one of the Capitol Police. Just another non-violent peacenik.

Shep just said the Code pinkos who were removed were “exercising their rights.” There is NO RIGHT to disrupt a session of congress.

I just watched a replay of the Code Pinkos getting dragged out of Congress...they were screaming and yelling like infants. Pathetic and disgusting.

They were all charged with disorderly conduct. Good, but they should be charged with treason.

No one wants to call [Petraeus] a liar on national TV,’ noted one Democratic senator, who spoke on the condition on anonymity.

Oh brave stalwart!

Anybody want to give me odds it was Schumer?

“I find it disturbing that General Petraeus has a plan...” Screw off Wexler, you are a disgrace to this state.

BOBBY WEXLER THE WHINER IS ON FOX NEWS NOW!

Man, that guy is a big time crybaby.

He is also the one who said he likes to do cocaine "because it is fun".

I just hope my senator George Cryingovich doesn't make an arse of himself tomorrow.

Looks like at least one Democrat has recognized we believe Petraeus over them.

In a sense I hope the DO try to call him a liar, then the American People will see what scum they have elected again and again as their leaders, Kennedy and Kerry come immediately to mind.

My friends who live in Palm Beach and are represented by this clown are always frustrated, since he usually runs unopposed.
