Fox & Friends: Sen. Dianne Feinstein Used Hand Notes In 1990
Earlier today we brought you one notable moment from Fox & Friends, in which they considered ObamaCare's effect on Bill Clinton's health, but that wasn't it for our Friends this time around. They also managed to keep Sarah Palin's Handgate rolling by interviewing George W. Bush's press secretary Dana Perino, condemning Robert Gibbs' version of the joke and comparing Palin's hand notes to Sen. Dianne Feinstein's during a debate way back in 1990. Feinstein, though, was breaking the rules. (more...)
Fox & Friends: Would ObamaCare Cover Bill Clinton’s Heart Stents?
video On Fox & Friends, an emergency heart procedure for an ex-president is a perfect opportunity for an ultra-partisan hypothetical situation: "If the Democrats' health care reform had gone through would President Clinton have received the stents?"

Jane Hamsher’s Fox & Friends Appearance Causes FireDogStorm
Liberal blogger and Firedoglake publisher Jane Hamsher has come under heavy fire for an appearance on Fox & Friends in which she promotes a petition to kill the current health care reform bill. Liberal critics paint her as a "useful idiot" being exploited by the right, and point out Hamsher's own distaste for those on the left who appear on Fox.

Soundbite: Is Bipartisan Testosterone Turning Off Women and Independents?
"Sunday shows are usually a little more boring than that, that was like a testosterone overload yesterday morning.
