I wonder how many who voted for him, who identify themselves as liberal, would say he is a socialist. Not many, which is my point. Liberals of today, who continue to support his agenda,don't think it's socialism.

Here is a Q&A from CSPAN with former ABC news reporter Britt Hume, and now with Fox News. He talks about how FN came to fruition. It also hits on his opinions about awards and bias in the news.

Someone's really "bought in" and gotta be suckin' the koolaid ... by the tanker truck or railcar load ...
lol ...
From the Q&A link:
BRIT HUME: Well, I think there’s a homogeneity of viewpoint among the people who give these awards about what kind of journalism they want to reward. And the truth of the matter is that it tends, not without exception, but it tends to be journalism that supports the liberal point of view or adduces information that would tend to support a liberal point of view. And that’s what you run into. And I must say, I think the processes needs to be opened up. But I don’t expect it to happen anytime soon.

The numbers are supposed to mean something? Conservatives trust and watch Fox News, and they don't trust or watch anything else. So, for conservatives, it's Fox News or nothing else. Liberals trust everything except Fox News, so they watch everything else, including broadcast news. Conservatives are watching the only game in town, for them. So, if you add up all the Fox News viewers, and then add up everything not Fox News, Fox News isn't quite the behemoth if may seem as first glance. Add in broadcast news, and Fox New doesn't come off looking very good at all.

Here is an example of why people are fed up.
Doesnt Harry Reid have more important issues, like the economy and government debt(said sarcasticly of course) to deal with than so called offensive team names. Am seriouse about thinking he is showing signs of early Alhimers in my opinion.

I happen to think Obama is just slightly left of center. But then, so was Prez Clinton.
Sure one could cite Obamacare and point the socialist finger but don't forget how many conservatives had similar plans - Nixon, Dole, Romney etc.
I think liberals have had a tremendous inferiority complex the last few decades. For a while they wouldn't even call themselves liberals, they cowardly preferred to be called progressives.

Probably the one who said "liberals rule and conservatives drool".
That was in response to Barkly, who believes that liberals rule the media, and therefore cherry pick all the awards worth having. I apologize for framing it in a way that went over your head: the phrase "_ _ _ rule, and _ _ _ drool" is from one of those movies you don't watch. [Which is why you may be puzzled at the reaction to your use of the word minions: giggles. Sorry, but they're just adorable!]
That statement would get an "F" in Marketing 101. Just having a location on every street corner or interstate exit will not result in success (profitability) considering the amount of competition in the fast food business. Assuming competent financial management, there has to be an acceptable level of quality in product and/or service that's commensurate with the price. The competitors with the best product for the money win the business.
I'm sure I would get an F in Marketing 101, because I wouldn't bother to show up. And your last sentence explains why: that's how it works on paper [in theory], but in the real world, there are far too many other factors in play that can change the dynamics of the purchasing decision.
Turtle did a nice job of refuting your contention that Fox really is "Fair and Balanced", so I'll just leave that be.
Obama is slightly left of Moscow. Obamacare IS socialist, so is SS, Welfare, Medicare/Aid, SNAP, etc etc etc. Obama is also opposed to the Constitution, as is Hillary, Bush, Clinton, Romney, Nixon, Carter, and don't forget that SUPREME hater of freedom, FDR!
FDR was such a hater of freedom he just locked up anyone he felt like it and confiscated they land/property etc. He sure did a number on a TON of Japanese Americans as well as some Italian and German/ Americans. That scumbag Democrat/liberal, FDR did this by EXECUTIVE ORDER #9066. MMM Executive orders are a favorite of Obama too. No need for the People,congress/ as long as the King is is charge. Then of course there was Jackson, he was good for that as well.
Liberals/Progressives/Marxists/Communists/Conservatives, in this country, ain't got 2 cents between them. They ALL are in it ONLY for their OWN power, enrichment and glory and seek ONLY to control the People to ensure their own power.

Since you are a Britt Hume fan I thought you might enjoy this:

You obviously didn't read the Q&A link.

Not all of it. It was too long and boring. Why? did he admit to bias in the Q and A?

LOL I like the Obama is left of Moscow line.
Have you ever given even a moment's thought to the fact that the Constitution wasn't written to give power to the one-percenters? One-percenters already had all the power and have had all the power in every country since the dawn of time.
There might be a test on this later.
If the Constitution didn't give power to the one-percenters, who did it give power to?

I have NO idea who is a 1%ter. I KNOW why things are NOT as they should be now, WE allowed it to happen. WE keep voting in the idiots that are in there, year in and year out. WE keep doing what the union tells us too, or the TV, or the rich dude, or the corporations. It is 100% OUR fault!
WE are the reason that we have a RULING class in this country. Only WE can put an end to it.
WE can no longer afford "ruling families, like The Bush's, The Clintons, The Kennedys, The Dingles, etc etc etc.
It will never happen as long as people keep voting for their FREEBIES instead of their FREEDOMS.
As long as we keep up what is going on, the scum will continue to rule.
