I love his panels. 3 conservatives and 1 moderate.

Fair and balanced indeed.

I think you are wrong Sean. I think that Obama is arrogant enough to think that because he has the 20% who call themselves Libs, he doesn’t need that 80% who consider themselves otherwise. Arrogance and delusion is NOT a good combo!

M, you are confusing a straight news program with commentary. There is a difference.

I agree with M. This panel is nothing more than 3 on 1 ambush to attempt to drive home their point with Hannity being the most vocal. However, he has some real experts on the panel to name a few Cliff from the old TV series Cheers. Now there is a walking package of political knowledge. We all know the mission of this show. It lack substance. It no more than a political sideshow.

Yeah, he really should have a panel like Olbermann or Maddow…oh wait..nevermind.

Obama is clearly a liability. The left won’t even whisper the word “stimulus” any more, because it has become such a joke. Every time the Democrats talk about “Obamacare” they fall further in the polls. And their next “big idea”– cap-and-trade — may be the single stupidest piece of legislation in modern history. That said, the Democrats got into bed with Obama, and now they will pay the consequences.

Whether Obama believes it or not, he will be responsible for the bloodbath in 2010. He won’t become a “lame” duck, he’ll be a “roasted” duck.

Keyword in this article is in the headline “Think”. Hannity’s whole show is what Hannity “thinks”. Very little facts. Its made up innuendos and unsupported facts. Then he goes out and finds a panel that will agree with his opinions and one lonely sole that disagrees and they spin the time trying to discredit that one opposing view. If he or she even gets a chance to speak. Its a circus. I watch it for the LOL entertainment.

@ Felixw:
You always come up with these idiotic accusations against the “left”, and yet anytime I say something, you never seem to have a rebuttle or are even able to prove your accusations. By the way, the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank, also says the stimulus has worked. So you fail there. Obama’s approval is currently at 50% and the majority of other countries around the world love him. Nice try there.

I also wonder how that whole conservative victory thing is going with the Liberal Dems beginning to gain ground in the UK.

The_Reasonable_Lib…

I don’t know where you live or (more importantly) what you do for a living, but if you think this stimulus has been a success, you must have a government job, because the rest of us out here in the real world have seen any “success”, rather quite the opposite.

@ Timzank:
None of the above, I just go with the writings of all the expert economists who say that the stimulus worked and the words of the Conservative think tank that was against it, but reluctantly admitted that it was successful. I testify from knowing people who received jobs from the stimulus that helped pay their way through college. Maybe if you looked into things for yourself, rather than taking what you’re told, you’d see some of what it has done too.

@timzank: If the economy hasn’t improved where you live, maybe it’s time to move.

Reasonable Lib,
What poll are you referring to? The only one I see that has BO at 50% is teh CBS poll. The real clear politics ave. has him at 48% and the Rasmussen poll, which polls likely voters has him at 47%. Also although the mainstream media, including this site, are loathe to report on it,

On Thursday, 22 May 2010, the first comprehensive – and more importantly neutral – report was released regarding the implementation and cost of the new health care plan. The short and skinny of it is – the initial estimates are not accurate. Beyond that they unearthed that the actual plan that was made into law is unrealistic and unsustainable according to their analysis. These findings are not from a partisan private foundation with an agenda, they come straight from the Department of Health and Human Services economists.

But don’t let facts get in your way.

Liberals……………hypocrits and liars!

The Reasonable Lib claims that I have never have a rebuttal to his brilliant points. This time he claims the stimulus bill worked. Do I even need to offer a rebuttal of that? Hey Reasonable Lib, three million jobs have been lost since the stimulus bill passed. The only thing that got stimulated was the debt market for US Treasury securities — which needed to find lenders who would trust Obama with another trillion dollars of borrowed money.

If you think that is a success, I don’t even want to hear about your next brilliant policy idea.

Seriously, what business are you in? In what industry is your line of work?

Magister, you’re a real hoot you are.

What’s the song about “Wishin’ and hopin’ and thinkin’ and prayin’ “? Sorry, Sean, but saying something is so doesn’t make it true, except maybe to Faux Noise viewers.

There are no “expert economists”. These folks are like weather forecasters, most of the time they are wrong. Expert economists and expert climatologists may sell their “predictions” to the libs but the rest of us know they are just wild guesses.

@ Felixw:
Aaaahhh, I see that you go after the one thing in my many posts which you can actually argue. Too bad you’re wrong. The point of the stimulus was to avert further economic problems. The AEI is a conservative think tank, and they state that the stimulus worked. They specifically say that it averted major economic problems:
http://www.thenextright.com/john-smith/aei-obamas-stimulus-plan-worked-averted-a-major-catastrophe
And that it resulted in a 4% growth of the economy in a time when it was consistently contracting at 1% per year:
http://www.tnr.com/blog/jonathan-chait/aei-says-stimulus-boosted-economy-4
If something actually accomplishes it’s intended purpose does that not mean that it worked?

@ Michelle F:
At the time which I made that post, gallup polls had his approval rating at 50% It is now at 49%, but disapproval has remained stagnant.
That’s nice. If I’m correct, that same department released a statement contrary to what the CBO said about the Bush tax cuts as well. However, the CBO’s predictions ended up being more accurate. The CBO is bipartisan. The fact of the matter is that these are mere estimates, and we won’t know until things actually go into effect. Then they will be the facts, and please don’t let those get in your way as you say liberals do.

@ Timzank: I’m in architectural studies and design if you must know =D

Teaching or working?

Like the ones on Bill Maher?

These poor libs, they just hate the OPINION shows on Fox. They always confuse “fair and balanced” news with opinion. That is because the so called news they watch is JUST opinon. They just hate other opinions. They really hate Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh, O’Reilly and Liddy for having an opinion based on fact and not fantasy. These clowns have grown up believing the government works. They think Social Security and Medicare are successful programs even though they need constant increases in tax money to maintain them. They grew up believing JFK was a great president, LOL. They grew up believing Joe McCarthy was evil and never found a Communist, even though ALL the people he NAMED were Commie’s. They also have been led to believe the Hollywood Ten were victims, they were ALL Communists. I could go on and on but there is not enough time. These poor fools are so ignorant it will take a lifetime for them to wise up.

Reasonable Lib,
I’m not disputing the CBO is nonpartisian, but can you name me ONE time, their estimate was high? I think we all know how this ones going to turn out.

I could only watch a few minutes of this silly panel discussion. They completely misrepresent what is actually in the bill when Hannity and the Republican hack argue “What’s so wrong with showing your ID?”

Well the problem is that no one in the US is in the habit of carrying their passport around as they go about their daily business in the US – Remember the cops are to ask for proof of citizenship. That means a passport or a birth certificate. A driver’s licence doesn’t work, you morons!

So, Republican screech owl, you would have your holier than thou ass carted off to jail for not having proof of citizenship.

This is why Fox is such a horrible place for news. They frame the whole debate deceptively and will lie when you present them with truth.

Hanzo,
LIke it or not, the public thinks Fox is the most trusted “news” source. Those are just the facts.

RL, I thought you would like another view:
Today from CNN:

In latest quarterly survey by the National Association for Business Economics, the index that measures employment showed job growth for the first time in two years — but a majority of respondents felt the fiscal stimulus had no impact.

NABE conducted the study by polling 68 of its members who work in economic roles at private-sector firms. About 73% of those surveyed said employment at their company is neither higher nor lower as a result of the $787 billion Recovery Act, which the White House’s Council of Economic Advisers says is on track to create or save 3.5 million jobs by the end of the year.

That sentiment is shared for the recently passed $17.7 billion jobs bill that calls for tax breaks for businesses that hire and additional infrastructure spending. More than two-thirds of those polled believe the measure won’t affect payrolls, while 30% expect it to boost hiring “moderately.”

Crowder is such a dumbass. Right Wingers were trying to prove that the bill wasn’t racist.
