| OH MY FAUX: 9/12 MARCH HAD MORE THAN OBAMA'S INAUGURATION |
|
Edited on Tue Sep-15-09 03:07 AM by brettdale
All over Faux news website and Faux nation, they have pictures of the 9/12march.
The pictures are so old and grainy, there is no way they are from the 9/12 March.
They are not even trying. they even got some photo expert in, who said Obama had way less than 800 thosuand for his inauguration, while the 9/12 march had more.
Its one thing to over estimate the crowd, but to use old photos for other marches, is sad.

| 1. They live in their own reality |
|
They will be so horrified in 2012 when Obama is reelected with an even bigger margin of victory. Or even in 2010, when they fail to take the House and only gain a couple of seats in the Senate tops.

| 7. Yeah, I thought that too. How many Fox fans had no idea that Obama could possibly win, |
|
much less win big, because all they ever heard was the Fox and Rush version? Even though a complete reading of the data overwhelmingly pointed towards not only a win, but a significant one for Obama.
I'm realizing now that OH shenanigans aside, my expectations that Kerry was going to win was based in part on wishful thinking. Kerry was usually behind and occasionally even or slightly ahead, but I took the optimistic read that Bush was in crappy position to be an incumbent with such low approval and close polling etc. and just couldn't believe that after plunging us into war etc. that the country wouldn't reject him. The kind of win Bush had could reasonably be expected from the data, and Kerry winning was a longer shot.

| 5. Yes but do they cite any numbers of their own? That's what I was looking for. |
|
Foxnation.com is practically like freerepublic, I don't think they consider it their "news" arm, it's a place for the rabble to rouse.
