Oh, my. When you’ve lost the author of the #1 Nonseller “Tears of a Clown: Glenn Beck and the Tea Bagging of America” you’ve lost…a big Keith Olbermann fan.

Why waste time rebuffing BS from Dana Milbank of the Washington Post. The same “unbiased” paper’s Eugene Robinson (one of Olby’s favorite guests) said that racism had a lot to do with the results from Tuesday. When a newspaper’s columnists say asinine things like this, you’re forced to crawl into the gutter to respond.

Eugene Robinson can’t blow his nose without fretting over the racial implications inherent in the act. Why are facial tissues so overwhelmingly white? Systemic racism.

Is the WaPo still killing trees these days?

What kind of toast does O’Reilly prefer? Probably white. Why? He’s racist. For real though, ignoring this Milbank story altogether would have been wise. It would have quietly gone away. Easier said than done though since it specifically attacks O’Reilly’s employer.

Why is Fox News addressing the ASSertions of a tool that can’t even sell 1000 copies of his book???

Megyn Kelly is so biased she forgets that this is a democracy and that 53% of the electorate voted in THE most liberal senator in the senate… This is a joke. The reason why Fox dominates is becasue there is ONE conservative propaganda network. MSNBC is the only alternative but liberals aren’t lock step robots so they ewatch CNN, ABC, CBS or don’t watch at all. If there was another conservative network fox wouldn’t have near the ratings. This is hot air… Nothing more. Mediate (Dan Abrams) shows the ax it has to grind with MSNBC everyday by giving this so much play.

Maybe he has some Japanese Americans interned in his back yard. But that would be admirable, right King?

MSNBC is the only alternative.

Yes. Damn those far rightists like Katie Couric and Brian Williams.

And you called me a racist for what was clearly a joke (of course you didn’t get it). Priceless.

So Millbank, a far-lefty, flat out lies yet his normal critique of FNC is “understandable”. O’Reilly points out that he’s a liar so he’s a “bullying beat cop”. Thanks, Colby.

Serious question for ya Colbs: Why do all of you lefty journolists have to take shots at FNC no matter what? The story here is Millbank. He lied. But, you and your cohorts are incapable of staying on topic. Is it hatred, jealousy or both that cause you to be unable to write something about FNC without finding a way to take a shot at them? If Neil Armstrong worked at FNC, you’d praise him for walking on the moon, then throw in a shot about his carbon footprint or something.

I notice too that many of you here jump all over King about racism but say nothing when notsofast posts one of his ignorant, hateful comments. Selective outrage. Removes all your credibility on the subject.

We treat it as a joke because the libs have so jumped the shark with it, it just doesn’t mean anything anymore.

This has nothing to do with what I am talking about. I am talking about attacking someone while completely ignoring someone else for essentially the same thing. King gets bashed while no one says anything about notsofast, who routinely posts things just as offensive as anything King has ever said.

Paul, you’re missing my point. We don’t jump on notsofast because he’s using satire. He’s doing that because folks like King are constantly calling everyone racist in a serious tone. It’s become such a joke that we have made a joke about it. I do not think notsofast or anyone else on the right is racist here, but I do wonder about folks like King and Cobra.

I absolutely believe he’s trying to be funny. On the other side, King thinks he’s funny, when in reality we are laughing at him and not with him.

Milbank’s understandable critique of Fox News’ tone……. Kelly reiterated the proper context of her “alas” comment which, in fairness, was said in a different manner than the way it was presented by Milbank.

Colby, I don’t think the word “understandable” should ever apply to the likes Milbank. You yourself interject how bad his hit piece was. Delusional or MSNBC like critique would be more accurate. Don’t worry though, if Milbank ever does get fired from the compost, he can join the rest of the objective staff at Media Matters.

And that is an acceptable rebuttal? That clearly shows your lack of intelligence and adds absolutely to the argument. In fact, it clearly shows that the right played… what’s good for the goose is good for the gander. This campaign was nothing but tit for tat. You guys state on here that “Barry” is not qualified and is only a community organizer”. And basically this showed if you can do we can to! Only we can do worse than you! Not realizing that the Repubs were using the tea party and will gladly throw them under the bus, now that their use is over. If you think/believe that they want to make any changes to business as usual, your being foolish. Even as the democrats have proven that as well, for the most part. IMO No matter what is done, by either party, the middle to under will continue to suffer. If the dems tax the rich, the consumer will take the brunt of it. We all know that business/corps try to recoup their losses by raising the price of their goods. If the reps get their way, they still will outsource jobs and more and more people will be jobless. At least the dems try to provide safety nets, while the reps will let you hang out to dry. Safety nets are not the long term answer, but fend for yourself in an environment that offers little to no hope is not either. The only thing I heard was that they would try to help and provide more opportunity to create small business’s. Not everyone has the money to start their own business. Many people depend on working for one. Ok, so more small business’s provide some jobs, but I don’t think it will be enough for the masses, especially as corporations outsource more jobs that small business’s can provide.

*absolutely nothing to the argument.

I agree with O’Reilly, FNC’s incredible election night success is largely attributable to Megyn.

For one night, Fox Republican/tea Party Propaganda offered a more or less balanced coverage of the election results, and they now want to claim the high ground of fairness and balance? By Tuesday evening, the damage was done; they had their viewers brainwashed, make that programmed that the sorry state of the economy was due to Obama and not the clowns who flushed the economy down the toilet.

Well, watch what happens to the economy now that Congress is gridlocked.

Typical Progressive idiocy. Every Republican, Conservative, and Tea party person isn’t smart enough to make their own choices, they only watch Fox News who tells them what to do. Of course you get all YOUR marching orders from the Huff Post, MSNBC, Media Matters, and the Unions. We’ll see what happens to the economy now. Liberalism fails everywhere it is tried. Even Countries in Europe have rolled back spending and are trying to get the progressives off the dole, but generations of programmed losers are now demanding that they get their government check for doing nothing. The entire country was brainwashed by Fox News and wait GLENN BECK to vote in 680 Republicans into the State Houses, 60 Plus House Members, 30 Plus Governorships, and 6 Senate Seats. All the people that voted were stupid. Only the 20% Progressives were smart enough to vote for Alan Grayson and Barbara Boxer, and Jerry Brown. Good Luck California, no bailout coming your way.

Believe it or not, some of the conservatives here are just as bad and sometimes even worse than King. I have been called every name in the book by notsofast. The fact that someone else would defend him says a lot about that person. I would think you’d strive to be above that, as someone who has been the victim of mean-spirited, often hateful attacks here.

I would never suggest that King wasn’t serious when he attacked your religion. In fact, I criticized him for that. In no way is notsofast being satirical. I really don’t think he’d even know how. He genuinely hates liberals, as many posters here do. Most people here can easily pick up what is satire and what is not. As someone who has been repeatedly attacked by notsofast, I assure you he is not being satirical. That is really him. It is possible for conservatives to be hateful you know. He’s a bad apple.

I distinctly remember a televised round-table on the subject, where each side had their fair share of time to speak.

I also distinctly remember compromising from a public option (which polled higher than any other outcome) to non-profit co-ops and finally to health insurance regulation. I remember having to drop free end-of-life counseling because someone (who I shall not name) started to call them ‘death panels’. A lot of meaningful reform was sacrificed for compromise and nothing came of it.

The very nature of a compromise involves not getting everything that you want. Over the past two years, Congressional Republicans seem to have forgotten that.

Cesca is whining the Republicans won’t compromise. Who’s the one that said after the 2008 election “We won” and just said his party was in the driver’s seat and the Republicans had to be satisfied being in the back seat.? Obama was essentially saying it was his way or the highway. You blaming Fox News and the Tea party for the devisiveness in government is ludicrous. You and Cesca are two peas in the pod going with the Democratic narrative of Republican obstructionism. Also, I am not ignoring the fact you are still blaming the Republicans for the current economic mess. Yes, the economy was in the hole when Obama came into the White House, but he and the Democrats spent the last two years blaming Bush, pushing an unpopular agenda and having increased deficit spending and adding to the debt at a record pace. What can Obama and the Democrats show America for a good job performance rating? It doesn’t show at the unemployment office, the supermarket or the gas station. Oh, the lines are bigger at Wal Mart and MacDonald’s that at Macy’s or the Red Lobster.

I think both parties talk a good game when it comes to compromise, but the reality is usually very different.

paulmdoro said:

Here are some ideas. Get rid of every new Federal Union Job that Obama created to grow the government by 23% since he took office. Goodbye Obamacare which will cost trillions and won’t reduce the deficit a dime. Time for the Dept of Education to go. I know, oh those poor children. Education scores have plummeted since it was created and the policies are polluted with the progressive agenda. Write a law that doesn’t allow unionizing of Federal Jobs. Develop a graduated schedule to eliminate the pension plans in place for the federal unions and politicians and replace them with a contributory 401K plan like the rest of us have. Overhaul SS# by allowing people over 45 to opt out now and into a tax deferred or eliminated 401K type plan. They can keep their current plan if they’d like to. People under 45 will be given tax credits for what they have contributed already which can be taken in a lump sum or over a period of time. They can then participate in a 401K type retirement plan that is portable or participate in a government SS plan with a fixed rate of return. The funds put into these accounts are not to be directed into the general fund but are used only for these accounts. Reform Welfare and the Earned Income Credit programs where you use them as a safety net and not a way of life. You can collect the credits or be on the welfare roles for a set number of years in a 10 year period, my pick would be 5. It can be increased if there is a death to the primary money earner.

People are going to have to think outside of the box on both sides. You can’t be afraid to change things and make people accountable. There should always be programs that are safety nets and not lifestyles. I don’t want to hear about how Liberal policies have kept people from squaller and dying in the streets. If that was the case then all these big urban centers that have been run strictly by Liberals for 50 years or more are all decaying suckholes with people who have been stuck on welfare with no hope for 2 or 3 generations. Big liberal controlled cities have terrible school systems and high crime rates. Lets try something else to help people lift out of poverty. Handouts don’t work. Accountability does.

This is a joke. The reason why Fox dominates is becasue there is ONE conservative propaganda network. MSNBC is the only alternative but liberals aren’t lock step robots so they ewatch CNN, ABC, CBS or don’t watch at all. If there was another conservative network fox wouldn’t have near the ratings.

LOL

You are the biggest dullard in the world. What you just said is that there is only ONE- got it- ONLY ONE conservative TV broadcast versus all the other lib TV networks.

It looks like reality has finally arrived at your cretin brain.

Here are some ideas. Get rid of every new Federal Union Job that Obama created to grow the government by 23% since he took office. Goodbye Obamacare which will cost trillions and won’t reduce the deficit a dime. Time for the Dept of Education to go. I know, oh those poor children. Education scores have plummeted since it was created and the policies are polluted with the progressive agenda. Write a law that doesn’t allow unionizing of Federal Jobs. Develop a graduated schedule to eliminate the pension plans in place for the federal unions and politicians and replace them with a contributory 401K plan like the rest of us have. Overhaul SS# by allowing people over 45 to opt out now and into a tax deferred or eliminated 401K type plan. They can keep their current plan if they’d like to. People under 45 will be given tax credits for what they have contributed already which can be taken in a lump sum or over a period of time. They can then participate in a 401K type retirement plan that is portable or participate in a government SS plan with a fixed rate of return. The funds put into these accounts are not to be directed into the general fund but are used only for these accounts. Reform Welfare and the Earned Income Credit programs where you use them as a safety net and not a way of life. You can collect the credits or be on the welfare roles for a set number of years in a 10 year period, my pick would be 5. It can be increased if there is a death to the primary money earner.

People are going to have to think outside of the box on both sides. You can’t be afraid to change things and make people accountable. There should always be programs that are safety nets and not lifestyles. I don’t want to hear about how Liberal policies have kept people from squaller and dying in the streets.

Lots of generalizations and not a lot of facts there. Conservatives would have more credibility when it comes to complaining about handouts if so many of them didn’t gladly accept handouts every chance they get.

I’m sorry but I can’t write a book report in a comment section. They are generalizations but they are ideas to consider. What do you consider handouts? Lower Taxes? Lower taxes and the economic affects of them are a philosophy the same as higher taxes and big government spending is a liberal philosophy. I’m not sure what you are talking about in handouts. Do you think giving someone welfare payments in perpetuity is good for that person? I’m fiscally conservative but more socially moderate, but I think people need to be accountable for their own actions.

I’d be happy to hear some of your ideas.

Please continue to call me a racist! I love how it rolls off your lips and into your ass.

I assumed you were referring to welfare checks with handouts. People should be accountable for their actions, but there’s also a knee-jerk tendency to paint every single person who accepts welfare as evil. I think it’s more complicated than that. I also have numerous conservative relatives who bitch and moan about the socialist government while they sit around unemployed and only have a roof over their heads because of a welfare check. There’s also corporate welfare, which benefits a lot of the same GOP politicians that like to bitch and moan about the evil of government handouts. Lots of hypocrisy from the right on welfare.

I would like to see cuts in defense spending. At more than $700 billion it’s over half of all discretionary spending. A good place to start. Entitlement spending is tougher.

I don’t think you can just cut Entitlement spending off, but you can reduce is gradually. Like I said earlier, in the case of welfare it should be available and used as a safety net, not a way of life.

But look it Medicare. The GOP threw a fit about Medicare cuts right before the election. How can you talk about a reduction in entitlement spending to decrease the deficit while screaming about proposed cuts to Medicare?

Watch what you watchin’
Fox keeps feeding us toxins
Stop sleeping
Start thinking
Outside of the box and
Unplug from The Matrix doctrine
But watch what you say Fox 5 is watchin’

It looks like FOX only drew 7 million of its faithful viewers. (Conservatives Patriots)
20 Million watched the big three networks. (Reasonable folks.)
So, so who won?

Apparently, over 300 million viewers had better things to do.
