Compare FoxNews's story on the Paris mayoral stabber to the CNN story on the stabbing.

Focus primarily on the published descriptions of the alleged knifer.

If you can't see the difference between the two then on each page, hit Control-F and search for the keyword Muslim. Then tell me which seems to be a bit more accurate in reporting :)

So CNN doesn't report stories very well.

Another difference: CNN brings up a couple of unrelated shootings.

CNN keeps us informed. But not of what's really going on.

They also did not mention that the stabber gave his reason for the attempted murder as the mayors homosexual orientation.

The left might not like the Muslims if they knew Muslims believe Allah will bless them if they try to kill homosexuals.

When CNN says it broadcasts the whole truth, they mean they broadcast the truth with a lot of HOLES in it.

If only that would be the case. BUT, it is not. The left ignores that fact along with all of the other aspects of Islamic extremism, simply because all of the pet causes of the left, save one, are nothing but tools to be used and discarded when their usefulness has ended. That "one", the destruction of capitalism, with the installment of world socialism, allows them to be hypocrites in their own shameless eyes. All we can do is hopefully persuade the uninformed of these facts, and win them over...

Agreed!!! Love Tony Snow, Shep and Sean ( I happen to think my husband resembles Shep a bit). They have a Laurie Dhue look alike now, I noticed, over the weekend. Another interesting tidbit, does anyone remember when Fox reporter, David Schuster pinned Bubba down and asked him if he thought he was going to be indicted? (can't remember what specific incident this involved, as there has been so many) Bubba replied, "you work for Fox, don't you?" Well I saw this reporter working for Hardball on MSNBC last week. Can't fathom why he would make that switch.

That, of course, is assuming the Left has common sense. I can assure you that they do not. They are too entrenched in their idealism and fantasies of living in the Land of Ought-to-Be. They want to create Heaven on earth using Humanism as the way.

That said, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if San Francisco is next on the terrorist hit list, considering the large gay population in that city.
