[Onlooker]

In the lower left:

[opihimoimoi]

1. WTF????

[flying_wahini]

2. is that for real????

Can they think they could slip that one by?

[Botany]

3. Didn't Fox promise to fire anybody who made mistakes like that

they have no shame

[sakabatou]

4. Fuck Fox News

[savalez]

14. +1

[Ilsa]

5. I'm surprised they didn't call him "our late president" just to

to see if their brainwashing was effective to that degree.

[madmax]

6. If your really looking for a masochistic thrill

go to freakrepublic and read the thread on the Rally. Acutally it's pretty funny. :rofl:

7. Obviously it meant to say "former resident campaigned in his hometown,""

Being hypersensitive to insignificant crap like this only diminishes the times they pull really significant crap.

[blue sky at night]

9. good call....

and so true, but i don't have the stomach for them on a regular basis so anyone who monitors is tougher than i am.

[Botany]

10. please fox has a long history of doing this stuff

that was no mistake.

[w4rma]

20. Bullcrap. (nt)

[NYC Liberal]

23. Not really, they have a history of making these kinds of "mistakes"

If it wasn't for that, I'd agree with you.

8. This was not an error

No news agency is that freaking incompetent. This is on par with what one would expect from a propaganda machine.

[struggle4progress]

13. Maybe they meant to write "the former Kenyan president"

:shrug:

[GoCubsGo]

19. More likely, they meant "Senator"

Hard to say whether this was intentional, as the network DOES have some really, really stupid and ignorant people working for them. Exhibit A: Sarah Palin.

[GreenPartyVoter]

24. Yeah, my vote is for either a) Senator or b) wishful thinking.

[Baltoman991]

11. With 13

recs, it appears we have quite a few Fox News fans on board who appreciate this story. Oh well, it's been obvious around here for a long time that this isn't Democratic Underground any longer.

[Cirque du So-What]

15. Well...

BYE!

[Divine Discontent]

16. Sir, rec'ing doesn't mean you have to support what the story's about, but you want it to be seen.

When it gets 5 recs, it goes to the Greatest Page, where many more eyes will see it.

[dancingme]

12. But Palin is still called "Governor"

[Divine Discontent]

17. thanks Faux, for showing you're just as hyperbolic & propagandized as ever!

they're nuthin but a poop stain on the toilet paper that we call the TEE VEE!

[jillan]

18. At what point do we get to call this treason? He is a sitting President & they are doing everything

to weaken him. He is the leader of our country, and they want him to fail.

Not to mention the foreign funds flowing into Faux and their candidates.

[BrklynLiberal]

21. They do not exist in the same plane fo reality as the rest of us...Bizarro World is their world.

I would be willing to bet that was no "accident"...
someone at FAUX NOISE thought it would be a cool thing to do.

[zulchzulu]

22. Some lazy dumbfuck copied and pasted a Clinton story and didn't bother to proofread

Propagandists like the Fixed Noise Crowd don't give a shit about the truth.

[AsahinaKimi]

25. I am sure that those employeed by Fox

Have no concept of Reality.
