FOX goes into election mode...

In the Business News section of Fox, there was this… oh…so well balanced analysis of Kerry proposals…the video is on the website and the link is below…by the end its laugh out loud funny…

Ahh… its fair and balanced don’t you know?... I have a little grounding in economics and these guys are talking baloney… where does FOX get these people from?...well its funny (if you have a strong stomach that is)...

Here’s the Link to the Fox story…

2. Where is the statement....

"I'm George W. Bush, and I approve this ad."

Typical Fox. Name calling and heavy bias. Clinton references. Endorsement of Bush policies.

3. Fox is hilarious.

A panel of 5 conservative idealogues. Fair and balanced indeed.

Their "debate" ranges from "John Kerry is an idiot" to "John Kerry is evil incarnate".

When Kerry wins in November, the first thing he needs to do is install someone to head up the FCC that will break the back of Fox News.

4. Really it amazing they get away with this...

...but oh we're forgetting CBS is the mouth piece of the Democratic party... bullsh**... CBS leans left but they don't and out and out say right Bush is evil and a lier and the whole basis of his polices is either wrong or evil... in effect this is what was being said on the program... the one guy who was live via a TV link up seemed about the most moderate and I'd still call him a conservative... but the way they backed the room full of Bush backers and money men and women would be laughable where it not so down right scary... but for laughs the guy with greasy long hair was the funnyiest...

For my two cents on the economic polices Kerry has put forward I think they're great and will have a lot of apeal... however IMHO we're going to have to hold back on plans for medicate until 1.) we have the deficit under control and 2.) we have a solid Congressional majority (or at least close enough to get Kerry's plan through)....

Well thats my two cents...

5. I saw Neil Cavuto last night

That was one of the funniest segments I have ever seen anywhere.

Five far-right wackos all of whom were accusing Kerry of being a Communist, of being French, etc. You couldn't carictature a Fox News broadcast better. I was rolling on the floor.

8. We should flood the FCC with complaints IMHO...

... maybe we could cause a fuss over this kinda thing... hell there are (conservatively) thousands of us if we could write a couple of hundred emails to the FCC and a few to MSNBC, CNN and Fox itself over this one incident we could get some coverage... I really think we could... any thoughts...
