1. Oh come on !! No video ?? !!

[ruggerson]

2. I didn't want to ruin anyone's dinner

[K Gardner]

4. It wouldn't hurt mine at all to have seen old Barnes say that :-)

[papau]

35. ABC Sunday with George had Mr Will saying the same thing. n/t

[Kahuna]

3. Was he on the sauce?

I like Obama but I find it very disingenuous of Freddie "the Beatle" Barnes to make such a proclamation. :scared:

[ruggerson]

5. He seemed totally sober

but Republicans hold their benzodiazepines well.

[rodeodance]

6. UMM. LOTS OF THE MEDIA SEEM TO BE GUSHING OVER OMBAMA LATELY.

[maximusveritas]

7. I've noticed the Repugs doing this reverse psychology trick

They say good things about Obama so that gullible Democrats will turn away from him.

[Kucinich4America]

20. Yep. Fred Barnes works for Rupert Murdoch

He knows what the boss expects from him to earn his paycheck.

[AZ Criminal JD]

8. What he actually said was

The Democrats were in the best position to win the presidency and Obama was in the best position to win the nomination. He said he thought whoever won the Democratic nomination would win the presidency.

[ruggerson]

9. He said "President Barack Obama"

n/t

[AZ Criminal JD]

10. I know what he said

He then followed up that comment by saying he thought any democrat could win the presidency. Did your ears stop working after he said Obama?

[ruggerson]

11. So why did you use the word "actually"

implying that what I wrote was in error.

"Additionally" would probably have been a wiser, more accurate choice.

[AZ Criminal JD]

14. Because you were intentionally attempting to deceive DUers

By suggesting that Barnes only thought Obama could win the presidency.

[ruggerson]

15. I wasn't intentionally intending to deceive anyone

and your politics of HOPE and hostility are showing

[AZ Criminal JD]

18. It's hostile to bring out the truth?

The internet is apparently not your friend.

[ruggerson]

21. No what's hostile is to mischaracterize what someone else posted

I posted a factual statement. If you have a problem with it, take it up with Fred Barnes.

[AZ Criminal JD]

22. You mischaracterized what Barnes said

That's why I had to point out his full statement so DUers who didn't hear it can evaluate it for whatever it may be worth.

I guess you thought you were the only DUer who watches Fox News Sunday.

29. Printing the full statement is now considered a lie?

Admit it, you just thought you could pull a fast one and not get caught.

[ruggerson]

31. No

suggesting that I was "deceiving" anyone is what the lie is.

He didn't say "President John Edwards.

He didn't say "President Hillary Clinton."

He didn't say "President Mitt Romney."

What he did say was "President Barack Obama."

As I reported.

This conversation, and you, are like a character in "Through the Looking Glass."

[AZ Criminal JD]

32. I am happy to see you get your politics from somewhere.

[ruggerson]

33. Yes

Many sources.

But, not from the Oprah Winfrey show.

[kentuck]

12. We know we can set the clock by what Fred Barnes says...

That can't be good for Obama.

[Carrieyazel]

13. Bad news for Obama. Barnes also predicted that Repukes would keep Congress last year.

And that polls showing Dems leading in most Congressional races, were bogus.

Fraud Barnes is pathetic.

[snowbear]

16. I can't believe that will all the choices... some here choose Faux..

Ugh.

[ruggerson]

19. Some of us watch all of them

but that was a great attempt at spin! Worthy of Fred Barnes, even.

:hi:

[HughBeaumont]

17. Ferd Barney can kiss my ass.

He's a rebel and he'll never ever be . . . any good.

You've gotta be kidding me. A president with all of the money, legacy, corporations and power on his side throughout his life is hardly what I call a "rebel". More like a fascist asshole.

Seems to me that Ferd is merely stirring up Whitey Foxviewer with his bullshit and not much else.

[TheCowsCameHome]

23. Fried Brains said that? I wouldn't believe anything he said. Sorry.

[ClarkUSA]

24. Funny, all the talking heads were predicting a Clinton II coronation two months ago.

What happened?

[hayu_lol]

28. I have not seen the current number of FAUX quotes on one board...

in over 8 years. Seems as if some feel FAUX is creditable for some obscure reason.

There is a reason and plan behind any statement made by FAUX news. Thing to ask yourself with their every pronouncement, is: Who is this helping/hurting?

[AZ Criminal JD]

30. Which network talk show do you place your faith in?

Since you single out Fox. All of the MSM shows have a reason and plan behind them, so what. That's why you have a brain.

[Doctor_J]

34. Congrats, Ruggerson

You just made my ignore list, along with anyone else who's ever posted an "I was watching Fox...." message.
