Here is one Glenn Beck video slamming Republicans, but shhh, dont share this with other Democrats, I wouldnt want to fix their wrong impressions of Fox, just like their impressions about religion.

YouTube - Glenn Beck Clips 10-26-09 Seg4- NY Special Election: Repubs. Slam Conservative Candidate


And here is Glenn Beck applauding Democrats for taking action

YouTube - Glenn Beck Clips 10-26-09 Seg6- Now Are 9 Refounders, Congressmen Who 'Rat' on Their Party

I didn't get all the way through the video because it got hung up for some reason, but Beck is slamming the GOP for not being far enough to the right. This is the reason why the Republicans have ZERO Congressional seats in all of New England and are about to be down 27-2 here in New York. Anytime the Republicans nominate a candidate who happens to differ in ideas from the southern base, the base goes ballistic. This is why a huge amount of the old-school Rockefeller type Republicans (you know the ones that use to help the GOP win seats in the northeast) have jumped ship.

If you look at the independent polls more and more people are in fact saying they are conservative. The polls have changed alot since the presidential election especially with independents. It really the other way around that more people turning conservative and fedup with the administration are turning on FOX news.

I guess it's interesting if you buy the characterization of Fox News as the media mouthpiece of the Republican party and its audience as a monolith of obedient robots. For those who do, this must come as a surprise indeed.

Agreed, I'm a Republican and it's not just the Southern Evangelicals but the Crazies too. Who are the Crazies, they include the following

1. Birthers
2. Obama is a communist crowd
3. Obama is secretly a Muslim crowd
4. Obama hates White people crowd
5. Let's bring our Guns to a rally and fire them in the air crowd (I'm for gun rights by the way but not overt displays that could be considered hostile to an observing crowd)

I'm a Reagan Republican or an "Arizona Republican." I believe in fiscal conservative policy, aggressive military action and defense of our country, less government intervention and personal responsibility. However, I don't care if gays want to marry each other. I don't think Obama is a socialist, racist, Muslim or a communist. I don't care if a woman wants to get an abortion, that's her business not mine. I believe the Republican Party has recognized it has lost many supporters ie Reagan Democrats and is trying to win them back by moving away from these weaknesses associated with the party (Evangelicals and Crazies). I know there are many Democrats who would vote Republican and share my beliefs but refuse to do so because of the Evangelicals and the Crazies that are associated with the party. The Evangelicals hijacked the party in the mid-90's during Clinton's Presidency. We need to take it back

Relax and have a glass of wine, or in fact drink the whole bottle!

FOX News is Republican/Conservative news and that's why I watch it because the other news source are clones of one another and FOX has a unique and informative perspective. I don't only limit my source to FOX just as I would never limit my source to CNN or any other news source. I want to hear a diversity of opinions and I think all sources are valuable in their own regard.
