One of my favorite features here at News Hounds is the Fox News mailbag. In case you need further proof that Fox News viewers are misinformed, behold this latest batch of emails sent by people who thought they were writing to Fox News.
I can't be absolutely certain each of these people thought they were writing to Fox, but the emails were certainly not the customary fare that arrives in the inbox. As usual, the names and other identifying information are being withheld to protect the ignorant. Spelling, grammar and punctuation have been left intact.
For some reason, August was a busy month for people mistaking us for Fox.

Re: Beckle's republican perspective
Who the Hell cares what Beckle thinks about how Republicans should think about their candidates> It is just a cheap trick on his part to influence how Republicans should think. Shut up, Bob. I don’t need you to tell me how to think.

Re: FW: a video: "Timeline shows Bush, McCain warning Dems of financial and housing crisis; meltdown"
Dear Gov. Huckabee, love your program. Try to listen every day. Really wish you were running
for President. I'm forwarding a video that I got from facebook. (youtube) This is something I
think everybody in this nation should see...absolutely disgusting. Obama's theme song since he
was elected has been that he inherited "Bush's" economic mess. This video, which has congressional
hearing clips, proves The Democrats were the culprits in this Fannie Mae, etc. mess. Why don't
we hear this from some of the conservative TV news, etc. People need to know the truth!
I also have a report that was on opensecrets.com which published a list of benefactors and how
much money each received while rejecting Bush's request to overhaul the Banking system.
It is shocking! Senator Obama received $105,000 before being elected Pres. He and several
others profited big time on their decision that ruined our country. Looks criminal to me...how can
they get away with this? Bribery is against the law.
Just a citizen,,,

Re: Telling the Truth about a Hypocrite
I am wondering if at some point i can speak to someone concerning a person whose public persona is false and yet said person continues to dupe people. Or do you have any suggestions as to what i can do? I'm really nervous about this person knowing i have something to say and how can one be sure that one's identity is protected?

Re: herman caine
Please give Herman Caine more credit than you have, PLEASE! I really like Perry until the illegal mess came up and virus vaccine, but every time Herman Caine answers a question-I like him more and more.
This one was posted as a comment on our blog on 9/28/11 but I suspect the reader was confused about where he had landed:
I am 83 and I'm telling you-- ALLEN WEST IS THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN BEAT OBAMA IN EVERY FIELD !!!, Please get every one to think about him. HE IS SUCH A TRUTH TELLER and LEADER. If I only knew how to pass this thought on!
Consider it passed on, dear reader!
And Happy New Year to the rest of the pack. Here's to more Happy Hounding of the Foxes in 2012!
Getting off soap box now.
If any of you ever have one of those days where you ask does my vote really count, and will it make a difference if I do or not, then just read the comments on Fox Nation. That should inspire you as a reminder that yes, my vote does count. Nothing speaks louder.
Coming in 2012:
1. Ruthless Rupy faces another major crisis.
2. Nixon-trainee Roger Ailes has a infestation of “moles” at Fox “News” Channel.
3. Bolling Mad finds a foot in his mouth.
4. Billy and the News Corporation suits clash.
5. Lil’ Annie confronted by other conservatives.
6. High End Hannocchio’s dark side becomes public knowledge.
7. Andy Breitbart gets a rude awakening.
8. The Republican Party faces a major scandal.
9. A conservative fraud has to answer to authorities.
10. A conservative fraud is not so happily married after all.
Happy ‘News’ Year from the Stop Hannity Express
