Shep Smith destroys Sen. Thune's false claim that Senate health bill will increase premiums: "That's not true, Senator"

Good for you, Shep. Pass the word to the liars who come on after you do.

Go Shep! It's always good to hear from one of the two actual journalists at FOX News (along with Major Garrett).

And you libs think Fox isn't fair and balanced. You just don't like it because they are the only news network on tv that isn't part of the propaganda from the DNC and Whitehouse.

I like Smith. When Fox says "Fair and Balanced" they must mean Shephard Smith. He may be the only sane person there.

Wow Shep... Maybe he thinks FNC is going to give him the boot.

It truly sounded like he was a frustrated conservative who thinks the GOP Congress has a bad game plan.

"I know your talking points"

classic

Hahahah I love it when Shep gets spunky. "Like the American people know whats in this bill" - zing.

No, Mr. Thune, the real mess is knowing a problem exists and doing nothing to ameliorate its effects. Now that would be like a diabetic refusing treatment and ending up dying from kidney failure or a heart attack.

That was good, although I was a little confused as to whether Shep Smith was saying "we're (the American people) going to lose" if no Bill at all passes, or was he saying "we're going to lose" if this Bill passes by way of the Budget reconciliation process... or did he say both things, one after the other?

Whichever, it was good anyway.

As far as the "starting over" bullchit, I liked that Smith effectively called it just that, bullchit.

He pointed out that that's not bi-partisan, that's just Republicans getting what they want, because to stop any measure from going forward, whether to send it backwards or whatever, is the same as killing it.

I like what I heard Rep. Barney Frank say, when asked about Republicans wanting to "start over" or "start from scratch."

He said "If they want to start from scratch, then why didn't they?"

[Which maybe it takes a moment to understand the cleverness of that, for it's brevity, but he is of course asking why do Republicans want to start over, when they weren't for health care reform from the start.]

Good for Shep.
My question is, why are the other, supposedly liberal, networks not doing this?
I am not talking about opinion shows like Keith Olberman or Sean Hannity. They stick to their view points.
I am talking about ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN where politicians blatantly lie all the time.

God love you and keep you, Shepherd Smith.

Careful, too much praise of Shep for not conforming to the conservative protocol and Ailes might shut him down and ship him off. Not like others haven't been sent packing from Fox News for refusing to toe the conservative line.

Seriously, does Shep have photos of Roger Ailes with a male prostitute or something?

Oh my, that was delicious.

Pray tell, how exactly does he keep this job?

It was like when he said, "The United States doesn't f**king torture people. . ." about nine months ago. He is too smart to be working for the clowns at FOX. It is time to come on over to the good side of the force, Shep.

Shep Smith is a breath of fresh air. He's the only one (on occasion Chris Wallace) that takes Fair and Balanced to heart.

Hurrah for Shephard Smith! Thune's already placed a call into Roger Ailes to complain.

Oh Shep, I believe the appropriate phrase is "Ooh snap!" Can we get Shep to go to a network where I feel less guilty for watching him?

AMAZING TO BE SEEING THIS ON FOX!!! Give em hell Shep! It's about time someone on FOX actually calls a republican out and shows them as lying bags of dirt that don't give a crap about the American people that they claim to represent. If you listen to each of them at the Health Summit, you would have heard them say the same old song: "start over"............I'd love to start over and that would mean without those OBSTRUCTIONIST REPUBLICANS.
I mean, how do these people sleep at night knowing that they,on a daily basis, deny the people they serve the healthcare that they themselves have and always will? I truly wonder if they even have a conscience at all!

Too bad Mr. Smith was the one who is actually wrong. Do some research and you'll find out for yourselves.
