Forget the moron thinking and use choice. Once you have thought through the 50 comments then its your decision how you want to believe. Gather knowledge(information) get understanding (facts), then wisdom through (truth). It will work.

I quit watching FOX when they admitted they slanted the news to support little george's invasion of Iraq. Are they more trustworthy now?


grace scott-If you are a liberal and looking for a news outlet that supports your liberal views and agenda then stay with the lesser stations. However, if you want to broaden your knowledge and get both sides of a story try Fox News. The fact that their ratings are higher than most of those other stations combined is indicative that people are watching Fox News in greater numbers than ever before. If you cannot stomach this president and his administration being criticized, stay with the lovey dovey stations and enjoy the patty cakes. Fox is for adults with an open mind. Good Luck America !!!

Your imagination is running away with you - there was never such an admission by Fox - there was however from the NY Times.

Meanwhile, tell us what news program you watch - and tell us when, from that source, you learned about Obamacare cancelling millions of policies. Fox watchers knew if pretty early in the game.



Guess you were not watching FOX that day. I was. I now watch CBS from 6 to 7 and tape Foxfire on CNN. Sometimes I watch Foxfire and sometimes I delete it. At 11, I watch either NBC or ABC.

As for policies being cancelled, they didn't meet the criteria of ACA; and Obama was too stupid to realize what insurance companies would do. My husband retired from a health insurance company, so don't tell me I do not understand.

Talking to people who religiously watch Fox News is better than space travel. You get to see what life is like on another planet without the risk of explosive decompression. But if you’re a Fox News devotee and insist that the rest of the world is crazy, this list is for you. Please, get help.




1. You are OUTRAGED at how Obama has shredded the Constitution but can’t name any rights you’ve lost since January 20, 2009.

2. You think record breaking cold weather in the middle of winter disproves “Global Warming.”

3. You think record breaking cold weather in the middle of winter disproves “Global Warming” but record breaking heat waves in the summer are just a fluke.

4. You hate Obama for the almost 1700 American lives lost in Afghanistan under his watch but have no idea how many died in Iraq before he took office (Hint: more than 4000).

5. You call Afghanistan “Obama’s War” but ignore the entire first eight years of it.

6. You think there’s no way Chris Christie knew about the scandal unfolding in his own office but Obama clearly knew what a small IRS office in Cincinnati was up to.

7. You think 4 Americans dying in Benghazi is “the worst tragedy since 9/11.“

8. You denounce Bill Clinton as an adulterer but give a pass to David Vitter and Mark Sanford because they apologized.

9. You are both convinced Obama is a secret Muslim and still go into a frenzy when someone mention Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

10. You really do think Obama is a secret Muslim terrorist that drinks beer, eats pork, attended church for years (ARRRGH! Rev. Jeremiah Wright!), had his daughters baptized, had bin Laden killed and has had more terrorist leaders assassinated than every president before him combined.

11. You think bin Laden was responsible for 9/11 because he ordered the attack but Obama gets no credit for bin Laden’s death because he only ordered the attack.

12. You swear that Obama is coming for your guns.

13. You’ve been swearing that Obama is coming for your guns since before he was elected.

14. You swear that Obama has actually reduced your right to own guns but you can’t explain how.

15. You have ever used the phrase: Obama’s Katrina to describe something that was not the bungled response to a major natural disaster.

16. You’re positive Obama isn’t a true Christian but then got mad he had too many Christmas trees (no, seriously, that was a thing).

17. You think Muslims are terrorists and religious fanatics but think protecting gay kids from bullies is an attack on your religious beliefs.

18. You constantly complain the liberal media takes things out of context but you’re deeply offended that Obama said “You didn’t build that.”

19. You think that ACORN stole the 2008 election. Maybe the 2012 one as well.

20. You think “voter fraud” is an actual problem but can’t explain how cutting early voting stops it.

21. In 2009, cutting the $1.4 trillion deficit in half was the most important thing in the world but in 2014, you could care less about how much the deficit was cut (Hint: in half).

22. You hate Obama for not having served a day in the military but voted for Mitt Romney.

23. You think Obama is the laziest president ever for taking so many vacation days but “forget” that it’s less than a third of his predecessor.
23a. Never mind how many days he took, the president shouldn’t take vacations during a time of  crisis!
23b. Never mind that Bush took vacations during two wars and a recession! Obama is   spending tax payer money to loaf about!
23c. I said WHO CARES that Bush took more than three times as much vacation time? It  only counts when the black guy takes a vacation!

24. You think Obama embarrassed America by bowing to other heads of state but forgot about Bush kissing a Saudi King

25. You think Obama is terrible for the economy while the stock market continues to hit all time highs.

26. You think the stock market hitting all times highs doesn’t mean the economy is improving but you still believe in Trickle Down Economics.

27. You claim you don’t believe in Trickle Down Economics but insist that increasing taxes on the rich will hurt the economy.

28. You’re outraged OUTRAGED at Obama for not unilaterally launching a full scale war on Iran but call him a warmonger for joining an international coalition to stop a massacre in Libya.

29. You think Obama is “dumb.”

30. You really think a Harvard graduate is “dumb.”

31. You really seriously think a Harvard graduate and a former president of the Harvard Law Review is “dumb.”

32. You think Obama hates white people which would include his white mother and the white grandparents that raised him to be President of the United States.

33. You think Obama is a criminal mastermind that has broken dozens of laws involving thousands of government workers but no one can actually prove anything.

34. You think Obama is an absolute idiot who has broken dozens of laws involving thousands of government workers but no one can actually prove anything.

35. You think Climate Change is a vast liberal conspiracy to destroy Capitalism.

36. You claim evolution is a liberal hoax but still take your kids of their yearly flu shot.

37. You claim science is just a religion but do not think twice about boarding an airplane.

38. You think the private sector can completely replace government investments but you’re OUTRAGED Obama ended the Space Shuttle program.

39. You think using a teleprompter means you are stupid. But only if you happen to be the president. It’s OK for everyone else.

40. You think being asked to drink an extra glass of water a day is tyranny.

41. You think being asked to do more community service is tyranny.

42. You think being asked to help the poor get health insurance is tyranny.

43. You think being asked to let women choose to use birth control is tyranny.

44. You think being asked to respect other religions is tyranny.

45. You think being asked to leave homosexuals alone is tyranny.

46. You think being publicly shamed for your racism is tyranny.

47. You think not allowing criminals and the mentally ill to buy guns is tyranny.

48. You think allowing everyone to vote is tyranny.

49. You think Obama exercising his constitutional authorities is tyranny.

50. You grew up in America and think you actually understand what real tyranny is.

Kevin, better to be brainwashed by Fox News than to have no brain at all and have wild imaginings about things that only someone who doesn't watch Fox News could conjure up.

Ninety percent of House Members and ninety-one per cent of Senators who sought re-election in 2012 were successful, exceeding the incumbent re-election rates of 2010, when eight-five percent of House Members and eight-four per cent Senators seeking re-election were successful.
Of the 534 Members of Congress 268 have an average net worth of $1 Million, making it the RICHEST CONGRESS IN HISTORY.
We, the American People have become GLUTTONS OF PUNISHMENT, because all we do is CRY AND BAD MOUTH EACH OTHER AND WHEN IT COMES TO ELECTION TIME WE CHOOSE TO VOTE THOSE SAME DYSFUNCTIONAL INCUMBENTS BACK INTO OFFICE. I believe when SOMETHING IS BROKE YOU FIX IT!

Very interesting comment. I've always wondered how people who constantly criticize Fox News always seem to know so much about it.
