Nice try... But you people need to do a better job of editing... Or how about this... How about you liberals stop lying and try being honest for a change?

Even after all the recent light shown on FOXNews for what it is (even though most of us knew this years ago ) I have to say that I am not the least bit surprised. Further, I am not the least bit surprised that all the FOXNews apologists will deny the obvious and resort to viotrol and condensending insults to divert the attention and focus off the topic of FOXNew's blatant propaganda and shift it to a flamefest instead. Works for them a lot.

Some things just never change.

My point is, it's ALL propaganda. The push FOR Palin = propaganda. The Palin nay-sayers = propaganda.

FOX = blatant propaganda
MSNBC = blantant propaganda
NEWSMAX = blatant propaganda
Huffington Post = blatant propaganda
CNN = flip flop propaganda

I could go on, but you get my point, right?

All the "information" all these "know-it-all" political bloggers throw at me is rooted in their particular taste of propaganda.

It's ALL bullsh**!

They are all full of bullsh**!

But I don't care. In two and a half days I will be sitting in my deer stand with a high powered rifle in my hand. Everything else can just go to hell as far as I'm concerned.

Re: And Fox is at it again...

Lets see here... You said:

Would that be the obviously edited clip that was posted?



Quote:

A liberal posts an obviously edited clip, that originated from a liberal website, that was designed to falsely attack Fox News, and I'm the bad guy because I called a spade a spade?

Quote:

I would say my response was definitely "on topic", and as you put it, "I am not the least bit surprised" that you made excuses, didn't bother to retract your criticism of me, and chose not to address the fact that this entire thread was started based on a lie.

Have a nice evening.

Re: And Fox is at it again...

It really doesn't matter what one's message is if they deliver it with a caustic tongue. No one will listen.

If people wanted to hear from assholes, they would fart in public more.

I'd say that is precisely why the average Fox News OCD patient only appeals to sufferers of the same disorder. Persuasive Pete's Fox screeds are not. In fact I think his anti Fox screeds have the opposite effect that he intends. Aside from detailing his ideological obsession that just goes on and on and on. He could change his name here to Smeagol and come off slightly less maniacal IMO

And still no acknowledgment that it was a doctored video, and that my response was at least partially justified, even though you didn't care for the way I responded.

What could one discern from this?
