      Steve Doocy, The Poster Child for Mean.
      He Attacks a Poor Black Organization? While BlackWater gets off Clean?
      My dislike for Steve Doocy is so intense.
      I've asked my Girlfriend to only use a Massengill Rinse.

      Speak truth to power.

        Gretchen Carslon & Kilmeade kept trying to Bait him on more Afghanistan Troops but he's no Ninny.
        Hey Fox & Friends, Why don't you have Ollie North on he'll Attack Obama without Mercy?
        You know the same way he Lied to Congress & The American People from Seattle to Jersey.

        Speak truth to power.

          That's what I read Ollie North to be an adviser for the GOP and house republicans. Maybe he can get by with his lies the second time around.

      So Doocy doesn't understand what a bill of attainder is, either. But that's OK, he's on Fox, he doesn't have to know anything. Representative Dr Paul Broun, however, even after being schooled by Rep. Alan Grayson, remains as ignorant as ever.

        I love how everyone on FNC has forgot that everyone in the US is innocent until proven guilty. There have been no proceedings against any Acorn member, as far as I know, and definitely no convictions. I don't see how FNC can claim the actions displayed in these videos are illegal when no actions were taken other than to speak with two individuals about securing a home loan.

        As for Doocy's comment about detracting attention from health care, FNC has already done enough of that. The smears against WH personnel have devolved the debate over health care into ad hominem attacks consisting of calling individuals "socialists", "communists", "mass murdering Maoists", and so on. These attacks are all thanks to Doocy and FNC, who now want to encourage everyone to focus on the health care debate. Can anyone say hypocrite?

      The more I look at Doocy I am now sure he was the one who brought the bedbug infestation into the NYC Fox News studios last year. Forget Fair & Balanced Fox News is Dirty and Nasty : NY Times article: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/18/arts/18arts-BEDBUGSATFOX_BRF.html


      Now about ACORN. IRONY 101 asks a great question- exactly how many ACORNs were caught on tape? We have crooked cops, school teachers sleeping with kids, ect ect ect BUT we dont cut funding to these important organizations/jobs. You can NOT punish a whole group for the actions of a few

        The reason I don't tend to refer to "Republicans" or "conservatives", but the Neocons.

      Doocy warns Democrats to vote to defund ACORN "or else it's going to detract the attention from health care."

      Translation: We are going to use this (and any other excuse) to detract attention from health care.

      I like when the Silver Gopher et al. try to take credit for warning everyong about ACORN a year ago. They accused ACORN of voter registration fraud, which is dubious at best since ACORN fired and turned in their own employees for submitting fraudulent voter registration cards. No one ever said, "This is a shady organization that gives tax advice to pimps!"

      While you at it Doocy. Tell the democrats to defund Blackwater, and Halitburton. Make sure your Republican fans support your opinion as well.

      Oops! The Redumlicans already voted against Haliburton and are trying to get that bill repealed.

      So it makes good since for democrats to fight this silly ACORN mess. If you want to go after something Doocy go after the real threat and not something small and not Acorn's fault.

      That story has "subsided a little bit?" No, for the rational, it's been debunked.

      I know Doocy's got the Democrats best interests at heart, and I'm sure they're grateful he's shone his twenty five watts of light on the danger they're in.

      Hey morons, perhaps your "news organization" should have, you know, REPORTED on the resolution accurately at the time it was passed???? Then you wouldn't be so shocked now.

      Fox News = National Disgrace.
