Fox News : Union Members Being Bused in At Gunpoint for Stewart Rally
:crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

"The Fox News paranoia over Jon Stewart’s Rally to Restore Sanity reached Tom Ridge terror alert level red today, as Monica Crowley claimed on Fox Business that, “There are a lot of union members who are actually being bused in at gunpoint by their union leadership.”"

"On Fox Business’ Varney and Company, Monica Crowley did her best to discredit the Stewart/Colbert rally by claiming that union members were being bused in at gunpoint to the rally. She said, “Well, but there are a lot of union members who are actually being bused in at gunpoint by their union leadership.” When Varney countered not at gunpoint, Crowley said, “In some cases yes, at gunpoint.”"

2. Any lie is acceptable to these people, it seems.
And Fok Snus just keeps supporting those lies.

Isn't that borderline defamation?

6. If someone had said people were being bused to Glenn Beck's rally at gunpoint
I would have believed it.

This - this is just a great example of why there is a rally this Saturday.. The superbrains at Fox News are just making the point for Stewart & Colbert & I hope they both run a clip of this.

34. Exactly, I was laughing at the fact that she made herself
exhibit #1 for Cobert's theme 'Keep Fear Alive' :rofl:

I hope he plays that footage as it would definitely enhance the point perfectly. They have become charicatures of themselves!

9. Fox puts the old commie propaganda to shame
@ 70+ in 1966 Mao swim the Yangtze River in record time and it was a heroic feat too.

13. LOL! My union didn't want me to go, because I couldn't
do walks or phone bank on the last weekend before election day if I'm at a "party". "How can you abandon your brothers and sisters now?"

21. Next we'll hear that people were shot and killed for refusing to attend
And their listeners will believe them. Is there nothing these people won't say and their acolytes believe?

28. Or that they've been sending them to concentration camps
Wasn't Beck already saying that Obama was setting those up? From an economic perspective, if the camps are there, why wouldn't dissenting union members be sent to them? Fits right in with the Nazi/Communist theme.

25. If that statement were to cost Fox "News" its last viewer...
...then there might be some hope for America.

That there's an audience who would swallow that whopper pretty much means we're doomed.

You know those old movies where a mad scientist wanted to take over the world?

Too bad that never happened. Then at least someone smart would be in charge.

This country is dying of terminal -- and apparently contagious -- stupidity.
