FOX Weekend: Geraldo

Missed the begining of the show. Geraldo, for some reason, lets Alberto Gonzales say that the government has failed to protect Arizona from illegal immigration without comment. But immediately he goes to his panel and brings up the stats showing viol… more »

FOX Weekend: Huckabee

This guy is just reading Republican talking points too. Not at all interesting - and way worse than Hannity. His first guest is billionaire Lynn Tilton who tells the hardscrabble story of being a single mother having to make her own way in the world… more »

FOX Weekend: Glenn Beck

Beck is a horrible actor. Beck is starting off with the leaders of four Tea Party organizations. It's as lily white as you might imagine. The Tea Party believes in "physical responsibility." I did not know that! Beck disses the NAACP for their com… more »

FOX Weekend: Hannity

Evan Bayh is useless. Listening to Hannity is like listening to a book of RNC talking points, and yes, that means it's just as boring as it sounds. What's the appeal of this guy? I'm going to have to find a right-winger and ask about that. He show… more »

FOX Weekend

FOX News is incredibly consistent in their naming schemes. The estate tax is never the estate tax, it's always the "death tax." The same with "Obamacare." Also, Dana Perino is doing a show now and the "we report, you decide" motto is nothing more… more »

The hate that hate made

"The Left Hates Conservatives" says Dennis Prager: From Karl Marx to today, the Left has always hated people on the Right, not merely differed or been angry with them. The question is: why? Here are three possible answers. First, the left… more »

I'm not getting this. I signed a new two year cell phone contract in September of last year. The cost to sign another new contract, just shy of a year later, is $439 with a Samsung Vibrant. However a new contract gets the phone for $99. Huh?… more »
