What’s happening in Iran is happening because their people are not armed...

Never give up the means to defend yourself.

“Never Forget, even for an instant, that the one and only reason anybody has for taking your gun away is to make you weaker than he is, so he can do something to you that you wouldn’t allow him to do if you were equipped to prevent it. This goes for burglars, muggers, and rapists, and even more so for policemen, bureaucrats, and politicians.”

I predict they're going to throw in a couple of token "somesays".

Like "Some say that employers will drop private insurance." Then they'll spend quality time trying to rip the "somesay" to shreds.

ABC will make sure there are plenty of these at the staged event:

We were surprised to hear that paid advertisements would not be accepted when we inquired

This is somewhat mitigated if they don't accept adverts from either side.

It still stinks to high heaven.

"Fox needs to have an hour long show up against it with alternative ideas. Let’s see who wins in the ratings.

ABC would still win. Even on a really good night, FNC doesn't break 4 million viewers. ABC could conceivably have 10 million for this infomercial.

Plus, ABC will use pieces of this program for the remainder of the week in shows like, World News, Nightline, GMA and This Week. The most favorable pieces of Obama performance (and it should be called a performance for this is nothing but theater), will be seen by tens of millions win the dust finally settles.

The advertisers is the key. That’s where it hurts them — right in the pocketbook.

I was watching CNN the other day (not by choice) and they were presenting charts about health care with the source "FamiliesUSA".

The group was co-founded by attorney Ron Pollack, who was a part of Clinton's Presidential Advisory Commission on Consumer Protection and Quality in the Health Care Industry, where he worked on the Patients’ Bill of Rights.

Do you think CNN mention that they were using partisan charts?

immediately preceding the broadcast of the Town Hall meeting.

The Zerø White House is calling this a Town Hall meeting? Town Hall?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Especially during the slow summer re-run season.

I can not remember the last time I switched to ABC to watch ANYTHING.

I haven't watched broadcast or cable TV in 3 years. I don't miss it either.

Wish they’d put a Rush/Beck special up against it.

ABC is being totally undemocratic! Here is a link to let them know how you feel about this UNETHICAL journalism practice.

Can't allow any truth to spoil the total propaganda brain-washing lie fest.

This is nonsense.
I wonder what Disney/ABC was promised for this propaganda?
