Jerry Wayne Rawle: Your attempt at impressing some of us with your knowledge and your education at Arlington State in the mid-’60s, I believe the word you meant to use the word IRRESPONSIBLE, and NOT unresponsible. And Journalism profs preach the FIVE W’s: Who, What, When, Where, and Why. And, sometimes How. Again, you are beating the dead horse with your comrades who claim that Fox News is slanted, when in fact it is the only network which does present “Fair and Balanced” NEWS coverage. How many Republicans and/or conservatives do you see allowed to give their opinions on the LameStream media’s broadcast and cablecast programs? Most of you LibDems continue to fail to distinguish between Fox OPINION shows, like “O’Reilly,” “Beck,” “Hannity”, etc and “Fox News.” Watch the straight newscasts on Fox all day long, including “The Fox Report with Shepard Smith” at 7PM and come away with a fair opinion. Do the network big-wigs think that David Letterman, Jay Leno and Jimmy Kimmel speak for, respectively,, CBS,NBC and ABC News when they sound one-sided during their monologues? Do you blame Katie Couric, Brian Williams and Diane Sawyer for their networks’ “entertainers” political jokes?

I am 82 and I guess by the the new thinking process that I am taking air from vital projects such as global warming. I just wanted to say that it is refreshing to hear a gentleman present his point of view in a classy manner. Listening to Jon Stewart reminds me of my mother saying that those who use poor language had a limited upbringing. I feel sorry for Mr. Stewarts lack of civility and can only hope that one day he will grow up to be something more than a classless comedian. The world needs more than a small person with limited vocabulary. Thank you again Mr. Goldberg!

I am a Democrat etc. I disagree with the above. I worry that the GOP is so damaged it may never return to slow down the power of the party. I don’t want this country to have a Mexico style PRI one party democracy. Over the last eight years Bush had no one to slow him down. I love my party but absolute power etc.

Peace

Hey Jim, you’re right. I’m a demo and I want to roll right over your rear end the same way your boy George did to the nation while the “liberal media” stepped right out of the way…wimps, almost one and all. I don’t care what you think. I want to flat ignore you and your buddies I do exactly what we want to. You folks have 0 (zero) credibility and deserve nothin’, period. Have a good day.

Do Democrats welcome those who stood with President Bush on the Iraq war? NO! Of course not. Just ask Joe Lieberman. A liberal in every conceivable way, except on that issue, THEY THREW HIM OUT OF THE PARTY! (And still he caucuses with them. I’ll never figure that one out.)

So it is total hypocrisy for liberals to tell the Republicans that they need to have a “big tent”, when Democrats would NEVER have a “big tent”.

I hope that one day the Republicans wake up and quit getting duped by the Democrats.

Maybe someone should update Ms. Couric regarding the newest poll that says 40% of Americans describe themselves as conservatives.

I guess Katie Couric didn’t know what the hell she was talking about judging by yesterday’s elections. Her problem is that she is totally out of touch with the common people. Stick to the fluff, Katie. Leave the hard news to people who really care about the working man.

They’re all corrupt. We need more Hoffmans (whether they are true conservatives or not) because something’s gotta change.

Yesterday was a wake-up call to all politicians. Normal, hard-working, frustrated Americans are SLOWLY waking up and realizing none of the idiots in Washington give a damn about them. Take Gore, for example. He stands to become a billilonaire with his global warming crap while regular Americans struggle to make ends meet.

I’m really sick of all of this junk!

11/2/2009, you and Mr O were talking about media coverage being slanted. You are right that Fox is basically slanted. When I started watching FoxN, I was amased that people were so passionate about their point of view. Now I believe that some of the discussions are scripted. This is OK to some extent, but is not honest journalism. I do get some information from these debates. Often one point of view is new to my way of thinking, or has a different slant. Unless you know first hand about any news, you should take anything on any forum with a grain of salt. I have shouted to the heavens about UnResponsible Journalism for years. When I went to Arlington State University in the middle 60′s, my proffs made us swear to Who, What, When and Where. Anything else was Editorial.
