5. I'm confused about Shepard Smith
I've never liked him and suspect that he thinks this hurricane is going to catapault him to the top of the list of news anchors.

On the other hand, he's done some great work over the past few days.

You can only go so far at Faux, and it isn't on a par with other networks...the bias was always there, but now it is starting to STINK.

A smart person wants to be on a winning team, and Faux is not the winning team it once was...they are backing a loser, a criminal, a man without a soul...and the country knows it. Also, their salaries are competitive, but only to a point--once you hit your ceiling, good luck getting more when they are locked into paying all that dough to the Dildo Reillys and Gretas--it's like baseball, with salary caps. Time to bail out! A good way to do that is to expose yourself to a larger audience--the Letterman Show appearance may be part of a broader campaign.

Only his agent knows for sure...

Must have thought it over and decided it's too late to defend his boss.

9. "Bush Bashing" is Republican rhetoric. We must not use their language.n/t

12. We MUST use any language we can against this monster.
What would you suggest?

There's no rhetoric involved here. The truth is now out there for all of the world to see. Too bad that we were the last country who got the chance to see it. Too bad that so many people had to die for the media to show us that truth.
