Not fair; not balanced and just plain sick

Wow. That really is sick. Reading the description of the kiddie porn in that affidavit turned my stomach.

He had a record of a child porn conviction in his past. It's interesting that Fox hired him.

Pretty amazing. It just goes to show that not everyone does their homework on who they hire. Looks like the FBI will be taking care of this issue for FOX. I am just glad the guy got busted.

Mostly I put this in Politics to piss off Fox news fans. :-)

:lol2:

I would have thought that went without saying.

I guess I never really thought about it. I only watch one show on FOX.

I'm trying to feel better by telling myself that with one conviction already on the books, he'll probably be doing significant jail time for this one.

Sheldon, dear, you couldn't piss me off, not that way. I have a pretty good sampling of the kind of alleged thinking the Fox-haters typically indulge in.

Ever consider how much of a man in full you'd be if you abandoned identity politics? "Politically correct" is a tyranny of un-think, you know. "Politically correct" is how you survive in a dictatorship -- but that's not so good either, is it?

WtF is that supposed to mean? He doesn't have to prove anything to anybody.

Not true. Most guys don't just take my word for it when I tell them how good i am at sucking dick. ;)

And UG, I never have subscribe in identity politics. I just go with the ones that don't tell me I'm going to hell for who and what i am.
The ones who don't tell me I have less rights than others.

And I don't follow the Limbaughs of the world that are very good at telling people how to live their lives as zealot conservatives out of one side of their mouths while popping Oxy Contin bought in a parking lot for them by their maids under their orders and then getting away with it scott free.

You can include O'Reilly in that group.

I actually used to listen to both of them back in the late 90s. I guess it was around 2002 or so that I just quit listening to anybody from either side.

I'm so much better off without people telling me how upset I am supposed to be about something they are upset about.

But, but, maybe Bruns was doing an undercover investigation on child porn for Fox.:rolleyes:

What that is supposed to mean is that it is better to be a man than to be a sheep -- and socialistoid policymaking of the kind we're seeing requires a population of sheep. This requirement is simply inhuman, and those making it should be neutralized, cut off from power forever, because they haven't the necessary character to limit it. You must have power kept limited if you want a republic, and right now the Democratic-controlled Executive and Legislative branches are running hog-wild.

The best we can hope for from this package is a nasty run of inflation. It goes downhill from there.

While Sheldon has done something here to set forth his interests as he conceives them, the lack of independence his favored party throws at him and all of us isn't going to do us good. Such a price seems wildly too high to me.

How do you figure a commentator of the news is thrown in that group? Did you see his interviews wth Hillary Clinton? How about Obama? I thought he was quite respectful and was fair to both of them when they were running against each other. And to their credit they had the balls to come on his show.

I was referring to Sheldonrs remark about TV personalities who are so sanctimonious and judgemental but lead private lives that are as bad or worse as what they make a reputation out of repudiating.
