      Katrina occurred 4 1/2 years ago...not a decade ago. The damage caused to New Orleans resulted from the collapse of poorly designed and constructed levees...the responsibility of the United States Army Corps of Engineers. Gov. Bobby Jindal lobbied for the Medicaid relief now being called The Louisiana Purchase by his fellow Republicans.

          All he has to do is add something negative about Franco (pretty much everything), and BJ Fan will come swooping in to type something very pro-Authoritarian and really, really stupid.

            Franco was an anti-government libertarian, just like his worshipper BJFan. Everyone knows that.

      And what proof do they have from their investigative journalism? I know they have the intelligent and well educated opinions of their illuminati, Beck, Hannity and Limbaugh ("the dropouts"), but beyond them....

      Fox advances GOP claims of Dem "bribes" for health care votes

      The GOP acts like they never did any bribes! Look at the way Medicare Part D was passed. It was done behind closed doors and signed overnight quietly.

      So what FOX Snooze is yelling is:

      <YAWN>

        Speaking of babies,

        Over at Fox Nation they have a picture under their Culture banner titled Baby Hitler Called 'Art'
        The outrage is phony by all accounts, because apparently they forgot about the Obama pic with the Hitler mustache.

      but, but, but Republicans "bribed" and "strong-armed" their own Members to have 100% "NO" votes for HCR. Why don't MSM ask Republicans how they got 100% votes to HCR? Was it 'cause ALL Republicans march to the SAME beat as ONE voice in Washington no matter what their Voters may need back home? Hmmm, maybe MSM could ask Rep. Cao (R-Louisiana) about his talks with his Republican Party. Wink, wink, LOL.

        Why does everyone forget Tip O'Neils comment about sausages and laws, if you like either you should never see how they are made!

        These deals have always been made since 1776, go rent the movie, slavery was a pre-existing condition they allowed to continue.

      It easy hard to notice that Fox News has really become insignificant in the National scheme of things. Everything they touch turns to poop.

      If Fox was smart, it would start pushing the Democratic agenda and then surely, the Cons would have a chance.

      And Fox smearing everyone today, no NEWS there. It is just like yesterday, last week, last month, etc. It is just the DNA of Fox, lie or at least try.

      The healthcare insurance industry spent $5 million a week -- mostly going to, um, Republicans -- to kill reform and you idiots are focused on this? Hilarious!

      Keep up the good work! You're becoming more irrelevant every day, if you're not completely irrelevant already.

      Bill Frist, just now- "I think that this health care bill will be unpopular for a few years, until the benefits begin to kick in, and then it will be popular..so the Republicans probably will run against it this fall...

      So there you go- the former Republican Majority Leader of the Senate admits that once the bill's provisions kick in, it will be popular.

        That's why they fought it so hard. The hysteria coming from FOX and Hate Radio will be deafening until November. It will make the past year's Propaganda Sh!tstorm look relatively civil.

      How can anyone vote for someone as clueless as this congressman. Obviously, He never read either bill. Doocy as usual, remains clueless.
