Turn the channel and NBC is showing Obama speaking to a much larger veterans group, making a much better speech and hugging and shaking hands with the veterans in New Mexico. And yes, they showed McCain too.
The bias of Faux News is so obvious to everybody.
It doesn't matter. McBush and the Republicans are incredibly unpopular this election year because of the incredibly pathetic 2 terms of that village idiot Bush and his regressive Republican policies.

McBush will easily lose to Obama in the General. Polls may not reflect this though to keep people interested.

I always wonder why Fox News defenders reach for this. Successful and accurate or good are not the same thing.
I was not defending FOX News. I did not even mention their name. The point I was making is that this speech does set up the background for what the candidate evisions. I encourage everyone to read the prepared text. It is Kennedyesque, and delivered with the usual style that he is noted for.

This line says it all.

"Because our individual salvation depends on collective salvation."

Can anyone say "It takes a village". If that is consistent with your philosophy, fine. I simply pointed out that this tells a lot about the candidate and should be reported.

And clearly, Fox News gives CNN and MSNBC a whooping in the ratings.
The op must watch fox because he post about it all the time. He knows it is the only place that is fair and balanced.

ABC just got nailed for lying, Cnn, MSBNC have all been caught making up facts and any station that would hire the left wing nut loon like Keith Oberman has to be at the bottom of the barrel for hiring.

The op and the other Obamakins are mad because Fox's debate was the only debate that Nobama was asked any tough questions, talk about bias, the other debates they handed him questions a 5 year old could answer.

Get is right, Fox News hasnt babysat anyone while the other commi network have went out of their way to show bias.

I agree with Sanrene, their are a couple fellows on MSBNC and CNN that get their panties squirming when they talk about Nobama.

FOX NEWS - The one to watch!

I now luv to watch Hannity and his loonehy left duffess sissy sidekick. ( Does he ever get anything right?)

"Fair and Balanced"
LOL
Even FOX doesn't broadcast that claim anymore.

Now it's "We Report. You Decide"
It would be more accurate to say: "We Decide what We Report" (true of ALL networks).

TYPICAL Right Wing reply - name calling.

"TRAITOR!!!!!!!!!!"
"COMMUNIST!!!!!!!!!"
"LIBERAL!!!!!!!!!"

and now:

"SISSY!!!!!!!!"

I'm sure you got all the Democrats running for cover with that on.

Could
this be one reason why? "You decide. They report."
