Fox and Friends Defends Barton's Apology

6/18/10 Fox and Friends shamelessly parrots GOP talking points, suggesting that a $20 billion compensation fund for victims of the BP oil spill amounts to a "shakedown" and "government takeover."

People, stay away from the GOP. They`re corporate whores!

Barton is a coward , suckling on the nipple of the oil industry. Fox I can understand their confusion - these are uneducated people and probably don't even know what BP stands for. Fox maybe can grovel at the feet of BP and apologize and beg for forgiveness for the dems being so tough, Ducey'

s on all fours for them - my god he really is a boy bitch.

I swear to god Fox news has the most absurd bullshit I have ever seen. Trying to Bankrupt BP to 'nationalize' it? How fuking stupid can you get. If BP is nationalized or bankrupted, who pays for the clean up? NO ONE wants BP to go bankrupt, nor would they risk it, because we want them to pay for this crap. The 20 billion escrow deal was AGREED UPON, NOT FORCED as a demonstration that BP was serious when they said repeatedly they will be paying for ALL the damages from this disaster.

@DNAblues Stuart Varney says that the American government might take over BP. So I guess all the other American oil companies must be braindead.

@Commonsenseification I get your point. But Democrats are not that great ,either. Our friend Bill Clinton signed NAFTA. All these imports from Canada and Mexico replace what could have been made in the US.

I'm really curious about what Republicans think about Joe Barton. I'm not even a Democrat, but I truly believe that that white bitch Barton should step down.

@Yellyist True, but so are many Democrats.

Is any wonder that our country and our quality of life is going down the tube? Sadly we have all too many individuals who actually believe this nonsense.

[dieselsmooth]

Who are they rooting for? Its so outrageous its fun to watch.

[Commonsenseification]

I wonder if those idiot middle / working class American voters that have been brain washed by Fox news will finally wake up and understand Fox news and the GOP are not for middle class and Woking class families? Or they will keep getting fucked up the ass with all the abortion and gay marriage bullshit, make that getting their minds fucked and played with by Fox news and the GOP.

PS that wasn’t a question.
