Like an idiot I watched Fox and Friends for about a half hour this morning
Edited on Fri Jul-17-09 08:18 AM by proud2BlibKansan
I can't get over the hate. I turned it on thinking they might be covering the bombing in Indonesia. But all they talked about was how awful Obama is and how we can't afford to reform health care. And they laughed. Obama's name would come up and they rolled their eyes and laughed. Just pure hate.

They never once mentioned the savings people would get from not paying health insurance premiums. They never once mentioned how expensive our health care system is now. They never once said anything about the people who die without health care. Or the people who die because the insurance companies deny them care.

We hated Bush but we didn't control the media.

Gawd how I hate these people.

4. The level of stupidity is overwhelming
Fox and Friends has electrolytes. It's what plants crave.

5. The hate, the lies, the cons, the dismantling of America, has left
me frightened and depressed.  The people that I was friendly
with, and that I liked, that listen to AM hate radio, and
watch Faux News, as well as emersing themselves in the
corporate media, have become very unfriendly, cold and
standoffish.  Instead of sitting at my table when we take our
breaks they either go sit at another table by themselves or
stand up away from us.  They deliberately 
avoid me or other people that don't follow the
"Con".   It's sad and it scares me.

12. I second the welcome to DU. This place is a haven for those who have to
work with or be close to the Faux news believers.

6. I watched two minutes of "Mourning Ho & Jo" this morning...
and almost thew up! They would have to cart me away if I tuned into fauxnews for a half hour. Stick to BBCNews.

8. I realized real fast that these jerks have no friends......
I was watching a few years back and they were covering groundhog day. Of course it centered around Punxatawney Pa and these jerks did nothing but mock and make fun of all the people that were participating. They were nasty....calling them losers and laughing at them for dressing up and dancing. I just kept wondering...whose friends are they exactly? I never watched them again.

10. So called patriots
There is dissent and then there is treason. If they had the best interest of the citizens of the US at heart they would be working toward making our country better. Instead they are doing harm. The lack of respect for our president is astounding. He has been in office 6 months with a country at war and in economic trouble. This is not an effing game.Freepers take note, I am calling you out.

11. Every so often (hard as it is) this has to be watched to understand what may be coming.

13. "Like an idiot" is the only way you can watch that drivel. If you watch it as a
thinking person, you'll turn it off immediately.
