Fox plays the same game as creationists. Quote mine, false quote, lie, change topic, get aggressive and repeat themselves. Because according to these people, if you repeat something that isn't true enough, it becomes true in their world.

GAWD enough already!!!

I am so sick and tired of this bullshit... since when is FOX considered news? Can't we just label it the new "Comedy Channel"

@GovernmentSham912 quite right wing that Obama huh? I agree, he screwed over americans and got bought out by phramaceuticals and big oil....just like the GOP and many Democrats....we need real liberals

[GovernmentSham912]

Obama is News Corp's #1 individual recipient of campaign donations.

@AdultsSwim1

Yes I know AdultsSwim1 Unfortunately some of my in-laws watch and believe in this very thing... Yes they do fall for it, and I fight kicking and screaming all the way.

My children will NEVER fall for corporate run BS. Revenge is mine by raising smarter children.

Did you know a poll came out today that stated only about 12% of viewers trust MSNBC?

@MaryJesusJoseph On what planet?

@wewatch007 The problem is many people still consider Fox News to report truth, even in their "entertainment" sections of their line-up. I frankly do not find what they say funny, because there are people who believe this b.s. Fox spews... and I worry what these believers have done and will do to this America and it's reputation. Just look at the "GZ Mosque" or the health care debate and how people have repeated word for word the things Fox says. Fox has a bigger influence than you may realize

Take whose side? All I said was it is funny that republitards always talk about a topic they know nothing about. I doubt you understand what it is either. I'm assuming you're smart enough to use google to find that answer, but then again I am talking to somebody who probably thinks Sarah Palin would be a good president...........

[elviolette]

Sharia law? What the hell is that fool talking about?

And why on earth would Newt pose for photos with his wife/mistress? Are they assuming we don't know their history?

Newt, she aint gonna endear you to other women, your wife is every woman's worst nightmare.

[MaryJesusJoseph]

I'm confused at Newt's claims that judges are going to use Sharia laws. Sharia laws are much more in line with conservative beliefs than liberal beliefs.
