  Politico offers a column for one day to someone "liberal!" Why that's not fair and balanced...and downright incendiary to any reactionary minds like Doocy and his producers

    Compared to how deeply right-wing Fox and Friends is, Politico leans quite a bit to the left.

  So true, Doocy!
  
  I mean, check out Politico's screaming socialist publisher:
  
  Frederick J. Ryan, Jr. (also known as Fred Ryan, born April 12, 1955) was the post-Chief of Staff for former United States President Ronald Reagan (1989–1995), and currently serves as the Chairman of the Board of Trustees for the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation. He is also the vice-chairman of Allbritton Communications Company and President and CEO of Politico.com.

    That's proof positive--Ronnie was palin' around with Socialists.
    
    I'm sure Beck at the chalk board, feverishly working to expose Reagan's hidden agenda as we speak.

    Maybe "left-wing" means boring because that mission statement put me to sleep.

  Oh, Steve. The majority of your F&F viewers don't know from Politico but hey: they're dumb suckers, as you know, and they'll believe what you tell them about it, won't they?

    This is mild...Beck would have said Politico was radical Marxist.

  This morning on MSNBC's Morning Joe Show the Co-Host, Joe Scarborough (former Republican House of Representative from Florida) praised Politico. Uh, oh. LOL.
  
  So, which loyal Republican should Viewers believe Steve Doocy at FoxNews, or Joe Scarborough at MSNBC? Hmmm. LOL.

    Yeah, but Scarborough has been branded a RINO by the loyalists. He never jumped on the obstructionist wagon and works at MSNBC so he's considered a traitor.

  Politico is a site that promotes disrespect for the office of POTUS.Most of the coments are by the same hatefull people posting the same thing at least 10 times each comment section.When there are comments from supposingly from outside they all seem to come from heritage foundation,or cato.There is a liberal amount of crap on politico.

    All Doocy is doing is defending Orielly. His mentor got into a sissy fight with Politico the other nite. I need a tissue.
    Not to long ago Doocy was praising Politico and calling them buddy. What Doocy lacks in originality he makes up for in stupidity. He is such a man/boy!

  Politico is NOT a Left-Wing Liberal website at all. It is a Right-Wing-leaning website if anything. The Washington Post is NOT Liberal either.
