FoxNews- use Alito nom lies to make Dems look bad
Just one example of the not so subtle (unless you are a Repug and want to be lied to) way FNC lies to make the Dems look bad. Don't have a clue who I am watching this afternoon, she's new I think, but here she goes asking a gues:

"Why are they talking about a filibuster when SO MANY DEMOCRATS ARE VOTING FOR ALITO?"

Huh- 3 is so many? They make these kind of remarks all the time which are pure and simple lies but put a bad connotation on what Dems are actually doing or saying. Not only did she make it look like a LOT of Dems are voting for Alito, but also makes the try at a filibuster look outlandish and ridiculous.

1. See, Republicans are considering NO votes too
The media line leads people to believe Alito has strong bi-partisan support. It's just not true and if more people knew that, they would stand up to support this filibuster. We DO need some media blasts on the fact that we've got over 40 no votes and that if just a few more switched, we could actually defeat Alito outright.

3. Need a Poll
We need to have a poll on the dumbest FNC anchor. My vote is for Bridget Quinn and Bob whats-his-name who is on right now.

Then again there is Steve Doocey and Juliet whats-her-name and oh, Patti Ann Brown and the male Dayside anchor with the dyed red hair, another Bob somebody I think and ...... Who to choose, who to choose?

4.  I put Dayside on once----ONCE!!! The guy with the red hair
was so obnoxious and smarmy that I had to shut it off and never watched it again.

Unbelievable,isn't it?

6. 3 Nitwits
Fox & Friends on weekday mornings 7-9 AM has 3 nitwits- Steve Doocey, all around fool and the court jester, Brian what's his name who is really a sportscaster and the least annoying of the 3, and E.D. Hill, girl nitwit who is usually pregnant. I think she now has about 8 kids.

Yes, I keep tabs just enough on Faux News to see what they are lying about now. It truly is Bush TV.
