Euro types don't get American politics. Just like I don't get their politics. The difference is....I don't care about theirs, because Obama will be gone shortly, and he is the only link, as bad as it is , to Euro politics.

Fox news is viewed mostly by independents, I remember seeing a study.Fox just has better people and even with its right leaning programs like Hannity or Beck, the news shows are fair...O'Reilly, Shep Smith, Brett Bair etc Compare them to the DNC's propaganda ministry, oh I mean MSNBC....their news shows such as Andrea Mitchell or David Gregory on Meet the Press are usually favor the Left and Dems,then throw in Chris Matthews, Lord Douche Olbermann, Angry Lezzy Maddow and now Lawrence O Donnell(who has the charisma of corpse) etc just a shill operation and they don't even attempt to be objective.I have decided Dylan Ratigan is mostly okay.Ed Schultz needs to just take a flying leap, he is crazy and brainwashed. Fox also employs a lot of Dems and Left Leaners....Juan Williams, Doug Schoen, Kirsten Powers, Alan Colmes etc etc and they always get a fair say.MSNBC rarely if ever has real voice from the other side arguing against what Olbermann etc say.They have the usual left hacks like Gene Robinson, Chris Hayes, etc etc etc from ops like the nation lol.Pretty far Left.

So Fox is fair and balanced in addition to having quality people of both viewpoints.MSNBC just can't compete and thus why they try to tear down Fox.Jealously is bad thing.

I watched about 2 minutes of MSNBC and it was priceless:har:. I wanted to run out and invest in the company that makes zoloft. They were freebasing zoloft last night.:har:

I love watching a good trainwreck.

I was watching CNN just to watch 7 people yell at each other about why it wasn't Obama or the Democrat's fault that they were losing. Each had their own theory and wanted to fight about it. It was hilarious.

Funny since her loss was a foregone conclusion. Rove was spot on the day she won the primary.

It was about the witchcraft, not the lady. So is the state of Britain. The queen is the head of state in Britain. Is that spooky?

On a side note, the ore-gone gubner race is too close to call at the moment. The Rep is ahead by 1%, BUT, the 2 most liberal counties in the state have not turned in all of their ballots:stare::nope:. (which they are notorious for doing). They are probably still cycling through anybody they can get to vote:shifty:. Hopefully they won't escalate to a recount.

I smell something wrotten...

Close races usually go to the dems since they'll cheat when it comes to it. They always change the rules mid-stream, find "missing" boxes of ballots, etc. The democratic platform position on IDs at polling places demonstrates clearly that they think they benefit from fraud. Recounts allow more fraud.

That's the biggest plus of this election, all the governor and state house flips. We can at least have fair elections (when Heather Wilson lost here, I tried to vote, and the new paper ballots (corrupt (really, indicted people in her office)) meant that some precincts didn't get enough ballots. Guess which ones? R heavy. In the morning. So everyone voting early OTW to work (cause, duh, they had WORK to do during the day) was screwed.

It was an honorable governor's race here. The incumbent conceded to a former incumbent last night without issue.

The demcrat (former gov termlimited out now he's back), the one who gave ore-gone universal healthcare (he now calls the program a total failure:har:) and called ore-gone " ungovernable:har:" is doing is doing quite well in the ballot count.:dead: If he gets (re)elected, it proves how stupid people are.

Turns out that, according to some out-of-state money, Iowans' constitutional rights were taken away by three of our SC justices. As a result those justices were booted out. Bad for them, good for the homophobes.

The justices ruled in favor of same-sex marriage a couple of years ago, and that upset some people. Doesn't bother me that the justices were voted out. What bothers me is that they were voted out because of their stance on the issue, NOT because of their overall performance. Leave it to hotbuttons to win out over reason. :88)

The real killer here is that the movement is now claiming a major victory for all Iowans. Uh... excuse me?? We're not all in the same boat. :doh:

Oh well. :sunny:

If you can show me where and when marriage was not between and among a man and woman I will entertain a reason for gay marriage.
