DU can we agree on 1 thing? FOX NEWS, Hannity and Limbaugh are all homophobic, sexist and racist...
. . . pigs and ANY DUer who uses what they say to launch attacks on either Clinton or Obama is definitely doing the work of the enemy. I will defend Obama but I will NEVER EVER CITE FOX NEWS, Hannity or Limbaugh as the basis for any criticism of Clinton.

I RESPECT any DUer who has legitimate and sincere concerns about Obama, HOWEVER I have no RESPECT for folks who are falling for the shit that FOX NEWS, Hannity and Limbaugh are spreading, furthermore I will not resort to their tactics.

This shouldn't be a partisan issue, it should an issue that ALL DUers, REGARDLESS OF WHOM YOU SUPPORT, should embrace. Who is with me?

1. Agreed.
That said, I think any breaking news that happens to break of Fox News first is OK to cite, using good judgement.

Agreed?

11. It's NEVER okay to cite fox news.
If it's real news it will be on any number of credible sources within minutes.

The "madrasa" thing broke on fox news... look how "true" that was.

17. Provided its sourced to AP. . .
:kick: that is my policy for Drudge, I will post a Drudge piece if its sourced to a reliable news source. I even roll the dice when he leaks what someone is reporting but without a leak. He is pretty accurate with that.

24. I don't know, Bornagain.
If Fox broke the story that it was the end of the world, and the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse were parked in my driveway and Christ and the holy hosts of angels were at the local hardware stocking up on lighter fluid for their flaming swords, I still wouldn't believe it.

My motto: Fox - breaking news, no. Breaking wind, yes.

13. Well citing FOX NEWS casts a wide net, I should have included Glen Beck. . .
. . .but I wanted them all to fit in the subject line.

7. I just went to their website and one of their big stories is that that the Black Panthers endorsed
Obama or some bullshit. Ugh, talk about shitting on an awesome speech and ignoring the message entirely.

And I'll actively confront those who use any right-wing outlet to tear down their primary candidate's opponent.

Because it's fun. :D

31. Faux Democrats..
After all these years, it makes me ill that Faux News has gained prominence while Keith Olbermann is trashed. Must be that 'third way' thing.

32. THANK YOU
And, IMO, that goes for the "concern trolls" who use "worries" about electability based on such smears as an excuse to post the smears again and again and again in lascivious detail.

36. Sullivan is at least a Democrat.
Drudge isn't of the same species, and is nothing but a slug.

35. I'm with you.
After my first glimpse of Sean Hannity Friday, I can honestly say that if he told me my apartment was on fire, and that I should evacuate immediately, I would probably stay put, even if I could smell the smoke and see the flames. He is an ass.
