The left has been told by famous stupids, that they are the smart ones.
Being stupid, they believe it.
It has gone on for several generations now, yet they still haven't faced reality.
Being Stupid is assuming others believe what talking heads are saying, you know like believing Rush, Hannity, Beck and Coulter are actually sources of information and truth.
A declaration that someone "got schooled" is just your subjective opinion. An opinion that is hopelessly biased by your obvious political agenda.
However, the blatant lies and false reporting by Fox News are a matter of objective fact. Reports like the President and First Lady sharing a "terrorist fist bump", the building of FEMA camps, forged birth certificates or the recent fake story about Obama funding a Muslim museum out of his own pocket are lies that many right wingers will now recite as the truth for years to come.
Well, what news outlet one recieves i formation from is quite secondary to ones personal opinion on a subject. You just have to try and get past the bias of the commentator, dismissing their opinions and forming your own. You may or may not agree with the person reporting when they offer commentary, so, just tune out the diatribe and run with the facts.
I usually watch FOX for news. I just find their reporters and commentators easier to watch and listen to. Their female staff is also quite pleasant to view, and why not get some eye candy with my daily events breakdown? Unimportant stuff, like the Obama funding a Muslim museum, I don't even bother with. I would far ratber watch and listen to Megyn Kelly, Dana Perino, Jane Skinner or Catberine Herrige than Chris Mathews as well. So...there ya go.
I tend to agree. I don't understand why people watch these stations. I have never seen MSNBC, and the only time I watched Fox was during Hurricane Katrina, at the suggestion of my mother, since Shepard Smith (sic?) was doing such a good job of reporting. It puzzles me why 'the left' herein tend to watch Fox, while 'the right' tend to watch MSNBC, and then come on here and complain about the slanting of the news on said stations.
You nailed it. ^
I am an independent and doom myself to watching it all.
Yes they do. The GOP is the party of stupid ideas.

Conservatives have no problem with forcing people to buy houses, get married, or having kids. The tax code gives you a tax break for getting married, buying a house, having kids, and now buying insurance. Besides, the individual mandate is one the most reasonable parts of Obamacare and a conservative idea.
Oh wait, case in point, the GOP passed laws that force a woman to buy an ultrasound before they can get an abortion.
We think it is a serious problem for America to go from a national debt of just below 10 trillion Dollars to right at 17 trillion dollars IN FIVE FREAKING YEARS.
No they don't, Conservative love deficit spending - that is their trademark, but they want to be the party doing the spending.

Conservative TP leaders have gone on record to state that they are ok with a default. Normal GOP members have said some pretty crazy things about evolution, rape, science, etc. as well. According to conservatives Obama is a Kenyan born Muslim.
