      Gretchen Carslon needs to work on her Logic.
      Sitting next to Kilmeade is making her Brain somewhat Lethargic.
      Critical Thinking is a very pleasant Change from the Past.
      Where's the Military Recruiters Office Gretchen? Where is your Uniform? Or should i give your Patriotism a Pass?

      Speak truth to power.


      Mr. News

      Rudy needs to check his facts, yeah I know, not likely; but it is the Republicans in Congress who are holding up Obama's judicial appointments.

      Bubblehead: "A lot of people worried he would vote 'present' like he did in Illinois..."

      Yeah, that's a big worry. Plus, he hasn't written a decent piece of legislation in his whole 10-month history as president. Makes one wonder if he hasn't been spending too much time chasing his pages around the senate and sending pork to his district. Has anybody asked his contituents about this problem?

      This one has to be one if the most ironic thing that ever came out of a right wing crackpots mouth. When Obama announced that he would close Guantanamo it was going to be the end of the world as we know it. Now the right wing crackpots seem disappointed. One would have thought they would be dancing in the streets, now that the western world is not coming to an end as quickly.

        It has been obvious for the longest time that they have been stopping anything and everything so they could say that Obama cannot do anything. Their hand has been forced because of the progress of the HCR.

          The democrats, by virtue of a majority in both houses, can pass any legislation they want. If they can't, it is because of democrat obstruction.

      Obama is in a no-win situation, which means he is damned if he do and damned if he don't according to Fox News.
      Unless you are, racist, mentally challenged or stupid, this would be obvious to you.
      The reason I say you would have to be stupid is due to the fact Fox News is not selective in their attacks and criticism of Obama. It is an all out assault on Obama. These bigots criticize BIG things, small things, petty things and EVERYTHING.
      There is not one person with common sense who will accept what Fox News wants to project.
      They want people to believe Obama can't do ANYTHING right. How stupid is that? This defies logic and it is an insult to the overwhelming number of voters who help elect him President. Fox News viewers refuses to see the hypocrisy and contradictions in Fox News "fair and balanced" programming.
      The fact is Obama, not only won the 2008 election fair and square, but he outfoxed, (no pun intended), Democrats, Republican AND the main media.
      None of these entities believed this was possible prior to his win, and they didn't think it would be possible AFTER they threw everything they had at him, yet he prevailed.
      All that is left for Fox News and other racist elements is to downplay, undermine, criticize, attacks, discredit, distort, miss-represent and lie on the President, while trying to convince people he is incompetent.
      But for some strange reason...perhaps stupidity, Fox News believe it makes sense to criticize EVERYTHING Obama does, as opposed to selective things. Is it not a risk you will lose credibility?
      Perhaps Fox News fans/mobs are that brainless or clueless, but do they really think EVERYBODY is that stupid?
      How smart is that?

      I thought he was weak on terror because he wanted to close Guantanamo? Now he's weak on terror because it's not happening fast enough?

      Welcome to PLANET WINGNUT!!

      . . . Where one president [George W. Bush] can ignore 50+ separate warnings of a major terrorist attack -- and sit on his arse on day of said terrorist attack -- yet be praised for "keeping us safe" . . .

      . . . while another President [Barack Obama] can be criticized for being "weak on terror," first because Gitmo will be closed soon -- and now, because it won't . . .

        Those 50+ warnings were being briefed in the Clinton admin also. Will you turn your scorn to the intel failures of that admin? Khobar Towers, Embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, USS Cole...

        Failures of Bill. Where was the left then?
