Was your "acronym" supposed to be funny or clever? I think you failed. How many months did it take you to think that one up? I suppose you have one for Sarahpac too?
Have you thought of any for any of the libearl political action committees? Probably not, huh. You agree with their fundraising efforts, whether they are legal or illegal. We know.
Does Sean work for MSNBC now? If not, it's really a moot point, since Fox News and NBC don't have the same guidelines about political contributions. Besides, we knew that he donated money to her.
Nice try but...FAIL.
You really should take it up with NBC, since it's their policy you don't like. That must mean that you like Fox's political contribution policy.
This is so hilarious to see how these people react to Tuesdays election results, after spending the last 18 months claiming the "Tea Party Movement" was "AstroTurf" and basically a joke. Now they are wetting their pants!!! Ha, ha, ha. They don't know what to do. All they can do is whine about who gave money to whom. But they do not examine their own party with the same scrutiny.
I'll admit - I do. If MSNBC wants to be fully recognized as a liberal political news network, it needs to be more like Fox News when it comes to this issue so that their anchors aren't hamstrung.
Lol, are suggesting that absent this change they are not fully liberal?
And in other news..................... the sky is blue today.
So what? It is not against thier corporate policy nor is it illegal. I would be suprised if Hannity did not contribute to conservatives, as he is a conservative.

NO kidding who cares? I don't care who Keith Olberman gave money to but I guess MSNBC does-& he violated the policy and now he is out of a job.
You are not welcome to interpret my posts and then attack that premise. You are welcome to address something I've actually written, but not what you'd like to make up. You do enough of that already and you are not welcome assign false definitions as my opinions. In fact I've already stated the direct opposite of what you are claiming in another thread. But as usual, lets not let facts get in your way or anything.
There are currently about half a dozen posts in this thread, half of which are yours. If you are ethically and intellectually unable to assess what you wrote then I wouldn't be able to help you either.
Oh yes, I most certainly CAN do just that. Again, what "false definitions", what "words" were put in your mouth? You haven't answered that yet.
Translation: I lost the argument the very minute I started this thread, BECAUSE, Sean doesn't work for NBC and doesn't have to abide by their rules.
This is so simple - an ultimate, classic thread FAIL.

I think they would love to get rid of this far left lunatic, but unfortunately his abysmal ratings lead the night for the network. His arrogance and tantrums are well known within the industry, he's just a really big jerk.

The whole issue is KO did his deed against his employers rules. Apparently, SH's employer had different rules.
The elites were sure nasty to Juan Williams who was fired because his employer considered his free speech violated their policy.
It is amazing! They go on and on, incessantly obsessing that Fox is not real news and now look at them. I don't think I've ever seen a jealousy/envy syndrome played out so desperately by the Left as they do with Fox. Of course, they blame Fox for all of obama's failures.

simply posting a link and a quote leaves you open for redicule.
Fox doesnt have the same rules as your beloved MSNBC. Its ok for the commentators to donate $$.
now, do you have a point to your topic, or is this more sour grapes from a democrat ?
There was/is no point really - just more wailing and whining and misdirection for the pain of Tuesday.

Well, Juan has been at Fox LONGER than he was at NPR - one would think Fox is more than welcoming of his lefty opinions.
