No, but then again, that never happened.

Does FOX do that, too? I'm asking because, not being a viewer, I really don't know. And I'm not talking about the occasional guest but real, left-leaning, regular contributors? You know, so they can call themselves "fair and balanced" and not have it be a lie?


They have all the RINO's and NEOCON's, that are closer to a full on Progressive, than they are Conservative, they just wear an R, because they are not full bore Liberal Progressive.

Where is Ron Paul, Rand Paul, and Gary Johnson?

Constitutional Americans with common sense?

Actually they do...MANY left leaners...Alan Colmes...Bob Beckel...to name 2. There are others.

BTW....>I also watch MSNBC, and that smirking idiot Chris Matthews is the WORST...next to Keith Olbermann who is no longer there. ANd the Ed show?? Gimme a break. That guy is an absolute LOON. WAY more over the top than Hannity on Fox. And Rachel Maddow?? Surely you can see that she tries DESPERATELY, and LAUGHABLY to try and be the female version of Keith Olbermann!! What a joke.

So...I watch both...even though I can't STAND most of the personalities on MSNBC...which...btw...is the LOWEST rated cable news network of the bunch....and guess who is #1?? Yep...you got it...FOX. And yes...they ARE fair and balanced. if you actually watched you would realize it.

Anyone who brags about ability to see something like this one is purely too partisan for me. MSNBC isn't on my satellite program and I haven't fought to get it there, but I can't see what isn't there and don't really mind it.

You have been given a link twice, then you contradict your own words...

Hot pointy stuff shoved under my finger nails to even watch a minute of FOX...

Then you say...I'm not aware of what FOX has said....(or not said) about this?

BUT at the beginning, you say IT NOT ENOUGH.....

Well what is it? At first, it is not enough...then you say has fox even covered it? What is it?

Sorry, but there are tons of politicians out there who are treated as 'sacred cows' by the liberal media, including all of Obama's associates.

OTOH, Bill O'Reilly & Co. have no more of an issue demolishing Nancy Pelosi than he would Newt Gingrich; everybody is 'fair game' to Fox media, and that's beyond debate.

Look at how little criticism Obama has received for his record breaking-spending sprees, cash for clunkers, as well as too many blunders to count while haplessly overseeing his 'overseas contingency operations'.

This thread was a complete failure for the op by the very first reply. Sorry meson but you failed yet again, but I'm sure you are use to it by now.
