People who really care about children and their well being would not usually vote democrat, because of their lax approach to these people.

As a victim of a sexual offence when I was younger I can tell you that the system is more concerned with reforming these people than it is with helping the victims. You can blame the democrats for that.
You've got the wrong person and the wrong network. So much for your theory.

You're right I was wrong, doesn't mean my theory is wrong.

I'm Moving to FOX - John Stossel's Take
Yep - should be a perfect fit for his style of pseudo-journalism.

I still think your theory is wrong. There is no factual basis for that thought.

Oh that's AWESOME. I love his reporting and hate that I had to turn my tv station to the unmentionable network to watch him.

Learn the difference between corporatism and the free market. Corporatism is a natural result of big government. The many government-entwined corporations do not desire a free market, which would make them vulnerable to competition. A free market benefits small business, entrepreneurs and common citizens. Barack Obama is an advocate of corporatism, while John Stossel is an advocate of individual liberty.

I totally agree. One reason I don't watch 'talk show/variety show/shock-jock/psuedo-news shows of any type, is because I have a working brain and can make my own decisions. I don't need a Beck or Schultz telling me what or how I should think. I'm baffled by people who post television ratings for these shows with such glee and salivation as if somehow that makes these shows 'credible'.

Just goes to show, you can't fix stupid.

Aint that the truth. The left hates Beck because he keeps exposing Barry's buddies for what they really are.

It can get hard to force your fascist agenda through when your top lieutenants keep getting exposed.
