Everybody knows that you don't raise taxes during a recession. And letting the Bush tax cuts expire is the same as raising taxes. Here's a good article for you to read glasspilot that actually comes from Yahoo, which I would consider left leaning. Raising anybody's taxes is robbery, especially right now.

Sorry guess you'll have to cut and paste that.

Glass, do you honestly believe that the left doesn't do the exact same thing? Both sides are guilty. The problem is that you won't admit that your side has faults that are just as damaging as the ones you claim the right continues to violate. I'm not trying to get you to convert to the right or watch fox, just admit that neither side is perfect and that living by either extreme is killing this country.

No, I agree with you the left has extremists too and neither do a service for the country.

The problem is that nobody watches MSNBC compared to Fox. So by the numbers, if both are bad then Fox is worse for that fact alone.

I watch MSNBC, CNN, Fox and the local news. They all have their good and bad points. My personal values are more in line with what I see on fox. The difference is that I don't tell people to only watch fox and to stop watching MSNBC. I don't think people should only get news from one source. If you only get your news from msnbc, then you are guilty of what you despise the Fox followers of.

I watch CNBC for Kudlow and Rick Santelli ( Founder of the TEA Party).

But I will start watching CNN @ 8PM Eastern instead of FOX - O'Reilly. Friend from my HS graduating class is supposed to become a co-anchor.
 
What happend to my post???

Here, I found a couple germane clips from Jon Stewart to back up my point.


Clip One deals with Fox using old footage to boost the numbers for a tea party event. They got caught.


Clip One

On Clip Two go to FIVE MINUTE mark to see my main point...or you can watch the whole thing. Up to you.

This one deals with Sean Hannity clipping a quote from Obama to make a whole different point.

Clip Two


Lying about facts is the equivalent of cheating on a test. It's to journalism what drinking and flying is to aviation.

Please stop supporting Fox and the lies. Vote republican if you want but don't let that propaganda machine get away with lying. The dumb in America believe it.

You say fox used selective editing. How can you confirm Jon Stewart the comedian didn't edit the clips?
 
You think Jon Stewart "doctored" the clips? I don't think so.

How can I confirm it? Well, without going and finding the clips myself and spending a ton of time I guess this will have to do...

MOST TRUSTED NEWSCASTER RESULTS
 
Point is no one can be trusted. The politicians, lawyers, and now the media are taking America for a ride.
Happen to notice how the repubs are just about lockstep with the Dems on nonestablishement candidates winning the primararys.
This is no longer a Fox v. MSNBC debate.
It's more like, will we be lead (think Bill Maher "the people are stupid, just drag them to it) or will we the people be the leaders.

Unfortunately people who try and dictate what type of programing to watch maybe for choice #1
 
Let me get this straight. You asked how I know the clip isn't doctored. I point out that it is produced by the "Most Trusted Newscaster" in America."

Your retort to that is:

"Point is no one can be trusted".

Ummm...what part of MOST TRUSTED don't you get? It's video. Watch it. Believe it. If you think it's fake then PROVE it. Otherwise STFU.

I'm all for debate, but I will not debate with the retarded and you sir are retarded based on your previous posts.

The Daily show is a comedy show, not news. His main purpose is to entertain, not iform. He is very left sided, and his show is geared for a very specific demographic. I would think that he uses correct info for his show, but it is for fun, not to use to form an opinion. You can say that many shows on fox are not news, but opinion shows or entertainment shows as well and I think they should be treated the same.

Can you agree with me on this Glass?

I love The Daily Show. You are correct it is comedy entertainment. What scares me is there's more fact in a comedy show then most of the Fox "News" (more talk) shows. Fox is very good at starting a clip late and cutting early to make their point.

Wolf and some of the NJI pilots are going to love the NJASAP politics and religion section on our message board. They can roll in the mud to their heart's content.

Agreed, except Stewart spends a lot of time bashing the left too.
 
8 pages long...really??
LOL

Incontrovertible proof that we, as pilots, will never sit anywhere else but in the front of one of our jets....

Oh, btw, about Glen Beck's show being one of the densest news hours found anywhere...who could argue with that.....oh the irony......priceless!

Mine only shows 4 pages, you need to change you settings to show more posts per page. If you were as smart as you think you are, you would have figured that out a long time ago. People that go out of the way to use big words like you are usually compensating for something. Let's all take our guess at what that might be.
