Repubs seem to be in rerun mode. They have no new ideas for their campaign except the old “He’s not like us ’mercans-booga booga” This seems increasingly like desperation measures. All to distract us from an important question: Where’s the tax returns Romney?

I agree, David Vaughan, Bolling should more accurately have said “Don’t bring non-religion into the ball park.” or “Don’t fail to bring religion into the ball park.” But that would have illustrated too clearly for people what a moron Bolling is. I know he was educated by Jesuits, but I just don’t think his parents got their money’s worth. No offense to the Jesuits.

The 1% of Americans who watch Fox do so in order to feel a sense of acceptance for their selfish, narcisistic, paranoid and anti-social view of the world. I’m sure they get a warm feeling inside whenever Bill-O throws his “I’m Gonna Quit” tantrum because that’s exactly how they feel. They’d rather not make any money than have some undeserving government or person get any of their loot. Their selfishness does not allow them to see how the infrastructure of our country has aided them in the pursuit of the money they love more than people.

Ideally Republicans would like to withdraw food, shelter and medical care from the most vulnerable citizens without anyone actually noticing or caring. They believe if their propaganda is good enough they can succeed.

I hope kids don’t listen to Stossel. How many high school kids are snapping up any internships? none because they are competing with college kids….Luckily few young people watch Fox. Stossel’s ideas are unhelpful and probably destructive. Young people should go to college to gain technical knowledge, then they can work for a fair wage and not for free.
btw a minimum wage employee qualifies for food stamps, hud housing, and medicare. Keeping the minimum wage so low as to allow workers to live in relative poverty, while allowing employers cheap labor. If the working poor didn’t have these taxpayer supported benefits, they would have no reason to work a job that did not pay enough to live (even badly) on. Through the minimum wage, taxpayers are subsidizing employers both big and small. The minimum wage should be doubled.

I hope people of the future are less racist than people today. If racism is still common, people will watch Fox News reruns such as this and say “white people were so dumb in the past, it’s hard to believe they were in charge of their own buttonholes-never mind the entire country.”

Putting the poor, disabled and elderly into the hands of for-profit corporations sounds like a great scheme for getting rid of the least productive members of society. Perhaps these managed care facilities can force the poor to work off the fees for their healtcare-and similar to our prison system- Americans can work as slaves for the corporations that control their lives. Was it here that I heard that Repugs would like to reverse the law which forces hospital emergency rooms to accept all patients regardless of their ability to pay?

If the foxers don’t hear how exceptional they, their country, and their religion are each and every day, they start to feel unexceptional-like they aren’t better than other people. Note to foxers, if you need to hear how wonderful you are every day—you probably aren’t all that wonderful. Reality sometimes sucks.

Its sad to think that in four short years a Republican nominee has gone from making an minimal effort to win over AA voters (McCain), to actively antagonizing them to win over the hard core elements on the other side. I don’t think Romney himself is a hard-core nut case, but if you have to make enemies of your opponents, then you have lost sight of what politics is all about and have no business running for office.

For someone making 300K per year, the 3% raise on income above 250K would result in an extra $1,500 in taxes per year—that’s all. Most small businesses don’t make over 250K anyway.
If these people cared about small business they would be championing Obamacare which will result in bigger tax savings for small business, (but none for big business) So their ‘concern’ for the little guy is a load of b.s.

Here’s what I get out of your interpretation, Gretchen: We can only say nice things about the very rich, because saying anything nice about the non-rich will make the rich feel jealous of the love other people are getting. So not only do the rich want all the money, they want all the love too. nice

Look at it his way Bill, taxing your unearned income at the same rate as your earned income would allow the employment of more police, firemen, teachers and soldiers, or to pay down some of the debt we incurred by lowering those tax rates in the first place.

Is Gutfeld saying if you are a part of the middle class you are not successful? Ouch. How about growing up poor, putting yourself through college and making a good life? Too bad Fox only has one criteria for success—large off-shore bank accounts. Thankfully most Americans are not so delusional as to think they are just a few short months or years from being ultra-rich. Fox has nothing to offer but delusions.

I’m disappointed the history text didn’t include any mention of the Iroquois Confederacy. A clear inspiration for the 13 colonies and the Articles of Confederation.
This attempt to link US law, and democracy and the 10 commandments is sadly pathetic. There is no democracy in the 10 commandments, only commands for obedience. The 10 commandments have more in common with Sharia Law, than current US laws. So of course they’d have to lie in order to get the job done.

This is a heat wave amplified by a warming climate, so it will last longer and be hotter and causing normal drought to be prolonged. Tropical storms and hurricanes are normal occurrences amplified in number and power by a warming climate. Tornados are normal occurrences amplified in range, number and power by a warming climate. These people will not stop denying until it is way too late for anything except running away screaming.
