    Not surprising...it's good business for them to keep their viewers frothing at the mouth. I know their viewers froth very easily, but the word Hillary produces more frothing than normal.

    I'm still laughing . . . :laugh:

    Fox News is the corporation's controlled opposition to their "liberal" media. How much more obvious does it to have get before people realize the whole leftie vs rightie paradigm is a scam?

    The link also says that Obama in 2012 received money from the "US Government", the US Department of State", the "US Department of Justice" and the "US Department of Health and Human Services".

    How does that work?

    Another way to look at this is that Fox News is not getting what they're paying for, so they have the right to criticize Hillary. LOL!

    I'm missing something...

    How does my watching Fox News help Hillary?

    Is she paid per viewer?

    The higher the ratings the more corporate (advertising) sponsorship. The bigger the corporate sponsorship all the more money Rupert and company have to donate to Hillary.

    The loyal Fox News viewers are in effect helping to fund their own opposition.

    Or it's all for show to keep people locked into the false left vs right paradigm. National politics is like a horse race where all the horses are owned by the same elite group of people no matter which horse wins the race the elite owner's group still gets to sit in the winner's circle.

    I see...

    Doesn't that put you in a no win situation then considering that probably every large corporation that you patronize for food, energy, healthcare, clothing, transportation, etc. donates to either the Dems or the GOP (or both)?

    How exactly are you then different than those that you are laughing at?

    What makes me different than those I'm laughing at?

    They're just finding out now what I have known for some time. The corporate elite and the politicians from both parties are all buddy buddy at the top and they all work very hard to make us believe there is this bitter rivalry between them when they aren't rubbing elbows and drinking martini's at exclusive events together.

    This is from May 9, 2006, 8:10 AM . . . http://www.cbsnews.com/news/rupert-murdoch-loves-hillary-clinton/

    I posted this very article right here on BB way back then and got pretty much the same response as this "new" revelation is getting now. "Yeah, so what?"

    But how does that knowledge help you?

    Seems to me that those in your camp are merely cynics that for some inexplicable reason believe that their particular world view sets them above those who see things differently - while that very belief system says that they are powerless.

    My camp? You mean people who still believe in individual liberties, protecting and defending the constitution, the rule of law, and holding those in power accountable and civil servants are our servants and not our masters?

    In other words the principles this country was founded on.

    I can't think of anyone in "my camp" that has said we are powerless. If we believed we were powerless we wouldn't keep trying to wake people up and drag them kicking and screaming out of the false left vs right paradigm that divides us and robs us of our power.

    If we thought we were powerless you wouldn't have any liberties left right now. You'd still be eating yoga mats at Subway and knowing nothing about it. You'd have never known Planned Parenthood was selling baby parts, the government wouldn't have had to change it's story so many times about 9/11, or what happened in Benghazi. You would have never heard about "divide and conquer", "balkanization", "false flags", "fiat currency", "Oath Keepers", or how deep the NSA spy rabbit hole goes, "cointelpro", and a host of other things the government and media would just as soon you know nothing about.

    There wouldn't be anyone asking government the hard questions, there wouldn't be anyone bringing out the details the mainstream media purposely leave out of their stories. You'd still be ingesting BPA from plastic water containers while you wondered what ever happened to your right to bear a firearm.

    Powerless? No. Not at all.

    What do the people in your camp believe? Voting is the most important thing an American can do for his/her country? Going along with and conforming to the system will keep you safe? Taking sides in a false paradigm and putting a guy from your camp in office is going to result in positive change?

    What do the people in your camp believe?

    Read this . . . https://www.rutherford.org/publications_resources/john_whiteheads_commentary/we_are_the_government_tactics_for_taking_down_the_police_state

    Does this sound like someone who thinks he's powerless?

    All that sounds really high minded until one recalls that a few years ago your camp was going on and on about black helicopters.

    What did you do about them? Nothing? Why aren't you still warning us about them? Or did they just go away on their own?

    Or maybe the whole issue was bunk.

    Perhaps the information that you are so proud to have and shout so loudly at us is just all made up. How would you know the difference?
