What?

yeah, and I guess the oil spill could be 500,000 barrels a day or the national debt could be 80 trillion dollars or the deficit could be 5 trillion dollars per year or Biden could be president. Ok I am convinced.

This guy thinks that just because he says something it makes it so.

He's talking about the jobs that were saved due to the stimulus package. You know. The one the Republicans voted against. The economy was in free fall. And that little clip means nothing because it's taken totally out of context.

Robb. I have to ask because mostly you seem like an intelligent guy. Why do you always go with the Fox news spin? I would have been embarrassed to link to that clip and then make the statement that you just made. I mean it.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

Hehehehe....
I know I'm not Robb but....
I like Fox News. I hate Glenn Beck and Hannity and have a love/hate relationship with O'Reilly but I do find them to shoot a bit straighter than CNN and MSNBC.

I love Greta because she is a homegirl.

Haole with heart, thats all I'll ever be. I'm not a part of the North Shore society. Stuck on the shoulder, that's where you'll find me. Digging for scraps with the kooks in line. -Offspring

Straighter than CNN or MSNBC? Perhaps you should watch this.

Fox news is probably the most dishonest television news agency (and I'm using the term "news" very loosely) that there has ever been in this country. It's not that they lean to the right. They outright make shit up. And they do it all the time.

I doubt that anyone employed by Faux News can spell the word 'journalism'.
