Any lib who criticizes FOX has no credence whatsoever, given the embarrassment of MSNBC.
I have already explained the numbers to pgh and it is obvious you missed it also, logic is not high on the right-wing agenda. But by all means please feel free to whine on and on, you will get another 4 years to continue with your skill set.

"baseless comments" like upon viewing MSNBC infrequently you think based on that viewing MSNBC's "complete and utter stupidity is astonishing, jaw dropping, and hilarious"....with not even one simple example?

It went something like, (not quoting exactly)

A program designed to help keep people from becoming homeless had a budget of $23 before Obama became President, but the Obama stimulus bill gave them $1.3M which has helped them keep 1.5M people from becoming homeless.

This was made by the author of the book, "The New New Deal"...

Who the hell are these people trying to kid? $.80 kept someone from becoming homeless? They made so many statements like this that I just stood there in utter amazements at the outright lying taking place..

I guess you are one of those Republican saps who actually believes that Christian's Childrens Fund can change the life of some cute little slum dweller for less than 25 cents a day!

I sometimes wonder if it's just a silly little game to them to see how many low IQ people they can convince. I mean, really...................
Well look at who is chiming in defending this "media" outlet and there is your answer. lol

Right- so says the far left. Let me see, the following news organizations are equally as partisan for the left-

ABC,NBC, CBS, and CNN

MSNBC is in a category all by itself, as it really cannot be considered "news". It is a far left wing comedy show.
