Excellent! Especially now that we know that with Fox's contribution of a million bucks to the Republican Governor's Conference, their sham of being a news organization is completely out the window.

And their recent fuss over the Muslim building in NYC is also exposed as an ignorant sham, since one of the owners of Fox news is the Muslim leader helping to support the building. That station is truly pitiful.

To keep an eye on Fox news capers and Republican shenanigans check out the following sites.
Political Correction
Media Matters
Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting
County Fair To laugh at it all.
"Whether you tune into Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann on the left or Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh on the right, or look to Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert to simply laugh at it all, there is little doubt that the trend of framing national issues in the language of black and white; either/or; good guys and bad guys has created a downward spiral in the tone of our political discourse."

Wow, this place is buzzing. I knew the cut/paste operation would gear up again.
So ya folks watch FOX News?
I take it all with a grain of salt.
I do not need to watch Fox, MSNBC or CNN or the mainstream news to know -
The "change" really is needed now like never before. What is in play now is NOT working.
Fox has its agenda
and the others all have theirs!
MSNBC has its agenda
CNN has its agenda
CBS has its agenda
NBC has its agenda
ABC has its agenda

I assume the ones that voted for the promised "change" did not know the change may be a change for the worst.

They deliver an unheralded mandate and get the biggest joke of modern times.
Now the knee jerk reaction. Candidates getting wiped out by Palin supported ones all over.

What? No cut /paste about how "great" the Summer of Recovery worked????
No articles about how weak the job market really is?
Hmmmmmm 'maybe" the job recovery" was just the temporary census workers as reported by (scratching my head) by uhhhhh .....one of the networks.
I wish, I really wish,the promises many believed would happen,would happen.
So far,nothing!
If ya can't get it done with both Houses full of your party ....well maybe being a "community leader",good speech giver,is not proof that one has the experience to run a country.
JMO ..not a divine revelation
