Really slowly now: Fox broadcast network ≠ Fox News.

Repeat: Fox broadcast network ≠ Fox News.

Yeesh, and you people are so quick to call everyone else dumb!

Hmmm

There's more to Fox's decision that is reported here.

They're planning to air their regularly scheduled series "Lie to Me."

Obama press conference = "Lie to Me"

So Fox is covering Obama.

Besides, they can always get their report off of Obama's teleprompter and cut out the middle man.

Leave it to a Salon reader ...

... to actually believe anything Michael Moore says, to wit:

Michael Moore Identified A Frequently Overlooked Factor

The American empire is sustained by violence and intimidation. The community from which the students at Columbine High School are drawn is, in turn, sustained by the industries that manufacture, if not WMDs themselves, then the technology for the delivery of WMDs.

Moore's Bowling for Columbine is a lie from first to last, right down to its title. (Harris and Klebold never went bowling any time around the school shootings.) The alleged WMD's in question, which Moore asserts are moved in the middle of the night to avoid having the neighbors know what goes on in their town (as if!) are in fact delivery systems for weather satellites and are moved at night because they are so large it entails closing down some roads and the trucks requiring a lot of space to maneuver--more easily done when most people are home asleep.

Anyone who believes anything Michael Moore says are just as dumb as the author of this article.

Here are the facts, for anyone who cares:

You might want to reconsider the unquestionableness of your assumption [about free will].

Must ... resist ... typing ... "But you have [arrrgh! stop! stop!] free will ..."

ARRGGHHH!

This has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever read on Salon

And that's saying a lot, since Salon specializes in publishing stupidity-squared.

If the economy caused Columbine, why did we not have massive school shootings during the Great Depression, when economic stress was magnitudes larger than today and firearms were much more plentiful?

Yeesh, I'd be embarrassed if I were a Salon editor, but then again they seem constitutionally incapable of embarrassment.

The writer was so intellegent in the annalisis ... Here in Canada we are no more successful in getting people of intelegence and conviction elected with-out them pandering ... It may be very difficult but all the more reason to incourage and congadulate ... The whole world admires the acomplishments of your nation, and then are greatly astonished by it's glaring misdirection ...

Sigh.

@ proudamericangirl

Try bullshitting salon readers; they fall for it easily.

But you couldn't have read the entire stimulus bill before the vote because it was put up at 11 pm the night before the vote. Yeah, I'm sure you read all of the hundreds of pages of it and digested and crunched all the numbers overnight.

If you've read the bill after the vote, well whoopdidoo! It means nothing because you can't do anything about it.

The Dems promised the full bill would be online days before it actually went up. They're liars, just like you.

@Marvern

Wow, what great math! From a sample of exactly three you've determined the average age of Rush's listeners!

You no doubt deserve a place in the Obama administration, see how good they are with hanging around with tax chiselers, assorted swindlers, etc.

@jhillr64

Calm down. Take your meds.

Now, it's not guilt by association when Wright himself cited Cone as his inspiration. And it shows in WRight's writing and sermons.

You ask how much material damage Cone/Wright have done? What a great question. How much material damage has Rush done?

BTW, I didn't know "material damage" was required to call racist hate what it is.

Nearly spit out my coffee!

... and Salon is a NEWS organization.

If you call Joan's shoving her nose ever farther up Obama's ass "news," well then more power to you.

@jhillr64

I render "judgment" on a lot more than a few sound bites on YouTube. I render judgment based on the fact the Jeremiah Wright himself said his inspiration was James Cone, who was even more of a racist than Wright. In fact, Trinity Church's web site acknowledge the influence of Cone until Wright unfortunately wound up in the news, and then that reference suddenly .... disappeared.

Samples of Cone's "thology":

God created us black. And because of that, that blackness is good. So in a world in which values are defined by white domination and white supremacy--in that kind of world--then God sides with those who are the victims in it.

"The time has come for white America to be silent and listen to black people."

"All white men are responsible for white oppression. "

"Theologically, Malcolm X was not far wrong when he called the white man 'the devil.'"

"Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him."

"The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community ... Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy."
