Blatant hypocrisy on Faux, regarding Ahnold and Dean
Edited on Tue Sep-09-03 02:18 PM by Langis
This is really starting to piss me off. I hear hosts and their guests who support Ahnold blast Dean for being to Liberal. The main reason they give is because he supports civil unions. Well guess what? So does Ahnold, but they don't think he is too Liberal to run as a repub?

I don't get it. They sure do serve up the far and balanced bullshit!

1. I'm sure it's more than just that reason ...
I think (D) and (R) probably have a lot to do with it.

2. Same thing with special interest money!
The other night, I caught a clip in which they were talking about how Ahnold said he doesn't take special interest money, but it was revealed that he HAD. The Faux reporter (a bleach-blond barbie doll, of course) sat there straight-faced and said, "We contacted the Schwarzenegger campaign, and they told us that Arnold is not accepting special interest money, and it's not a flip-flop."

That was it. I guess since the campaign said it, it must be true. :eyes:

Now imagine if this happened with a "Democrat" campaign! It would be bigger than Gary Condit and Laci Peterson rolled into one! :argh:

3. Not to defend Fox...
but I thought Arnold was opposed to Civil Unions. He's in favor of "equal rights for gays," but believes that marriage should be between a man and woman.

Besides, are you really that surprised to find bias on Fox?

I'm not really surprised to find bias on Faux, I just get really pissed everytime someone say Dean is too liberal becasue he supports Civil Unions.

5. Faux and the rest of the Busheviks worship one thing...POWER
All "principles" are weak things clung to by weakling liberals who don't have to balls to "do what they have to do" to WIN POWER.

All the rest is Goebbels v2.0 window dressing for the ever-growing numbers of Dittohead-Brownshirt Automatons.
