    Of course WingNut goes after him. Do you expect otherwise? Why read about it when you can see what he actually said?

    Are there some right-winged nuts out there who are a little scarey? Well,.....a lot scarey? Sure. I know a couple of them. :laugh: .... :eek: !!!

    But the hate goes both ways.

    All you have to do is to read through the comments on the video that you posted and to read all of the negative, f-word filled venom toward republicans and conservatives.

    It seems there's just as many left-wing haters who have lumped all of us right-wing people into a ball of manure sprinkled liberally with the f-word.

    There's plenty of hate to spread all over both camps. We ought to ALL be ashamed.

    There was nothing in the email he read that compares to what has been said about Bush on this board by libbies. Give me a break.

    Didja know the liberal democrats claim Robert Byrd (D-VA) in their ranks, a guy who filibustered the civil rights bill for over 13 hours, refusing to have a vote on it. He is STILL a senator !!!!! For some reaswon, he will NEVER be held to account for what he has done.

    Racial prejudice has always had a home in the democrat party, despite the constant accusations otherwise. Republicans freed the slaves, then 100 years later beat the democrats who still wouldn't let them vote. And let's not forget JFK, & RFK, who had MLK's phone illegally tapped & bugged.

    But the democrats have the media on their side, to help hide their shameful past. And Shep Smith is one of them.

    And let's not forget hatemongering Reverend Hatewhitey Wright. Sounds to me like he was reading the shooter's website word for word. You gonna call HIM a right winger ?

    Let's hope so. It's about the time that the conservative stranglehold on the public's airwaves was broken.

    Shepard Smith is a liberal. You almost seem shocked about that. I was watching You Tube on one occasion where he was debating with someone about waterboarding. He at one point shouted, "America does not tortue people". Of course there was an F-bomb or two in there also. I have never seen a reporter come right out & express his views on things like that.

    You can't say that Fox News isn't "Fair & Balanced".

    It's a shame what's happened to you, Ken.

    I remember when you were in favor of freedom of speech (To your credit, you've only "switched sides" once on this issue). Too bad you don't recognize what made America great.

    Oh, just so you'll know: Other countries have taken your position regarding freedom of speech. Hasn't worked too well for them.

    There is no stranglehold on the public airwaves. This is nothing more that liberal emotionalism that is not willing to admit that libbie ideas do not make it in the open and free market place. They get rejected every time. Conservative programs far exceed liberal ones in both radio and TV. Libbies cannot compete.

    I doubt the "f" word made it out on the air. But FNC is anything BUT fair & balanced. It is a right wing propaganda machine that has an occasional token liberal comment slip through.

    If this is the case, then you must without a doubt admit that NBC/MSNBC would be a "left wing propaganda machine."

    To some degree they are, but they also have Joe Scarborough. But the leftie commentators do outnumber the righties. I also know they have Pat Buchannan on regularly.

    Seriously...

    Why can't we have at least ONE network that is truly fair?

    Why can't we just have the facts, and leave the commentary out?

    I know, I know, People like sensationalism...
    But I would love for one network to report news the way it was reported when I grew up... They saved the commentary until the end of the broadcast.

    I would watch that station more than the others...
    And I bet a lot of you would too.

    Why MP! If you read about it on WingNut you get the smear job done on Smith where they bring up some traffic incident he was involved in almost 10 years ago, and also something that has nothing to do with the current story.

    You were fine, however, when Letterman's thread turned into a "hate Rush Limbaugh" orgy.

    It's so hard to be consistent, ain't it, Bob ?
