      Wow, that's some pretty hard hitting statements by CNN. That will leave a mark...

      OT, but Eric looks pretty sharp with the don johnson look.

      The Second Amendment Foundation might do well to get someone who doesn't look and talk like Mr. Peepers.

      What I worry most about is that it makes the POTUS less safe!  They already caught a couple crazys driving around Capital Hill with a bunch of guns saying they are looking for the POTUS!

      I wish people would take a stand and boycott the advertisers of these shows.  It would not take much to scare the advertisers away.  If you take away their paycheck they will smarten up REAL fast!  The American way!

      I'm shocked that the CNN dude was that outspoken.  He sounded like Keith O.  Boehlert was almost superfluous (no offense Eric.)

      Nice job Eric...

      You present the Media Matters points in a very effective way.  This CNN dude is interesting as well.  I've seen a couple clips of Boehlert on with him.  Who is he?

      Eric had more and wasn't allowed an answering last coment. I saw him shake his head on that last coment and then his head disappeared.

      Still, pretty good CNN.

      To respond to peepers' last comment:

      I hate to point out the obvious, but when was the last time you heard about a liberal walking into a conservative hang out and start killing people because of something he saw in a Micheal Moore film, an episode of Countdown, or read in a book by Al Franken?

      watchdogging what beck,orielly,and hanity say is a waste of time.rupert murdoch belongs to the cfr.the fact that he allows right wing,squeakey clean,wave the flag,shock jocking,philosophies to be the mantra of fox news means nothing.when the cfr tells rupert to change the style he will.so will the antithesis huffington.
