19. Here's my Fox testimonial
Edited on Wed Jul-13-11 01:26 PM by Doctor_J
when I was a kid a close family friend was a JFK Dem, LBJ Dem, RFK Dem, voted for HHH and GSM. His dad put food on the table with a union plumbing job. Whole family were libs. Fast forward 45 years. Now that former JFK dem's sole means of support are Medicare (he's used treatment that would cost more than a half million dollars out of pocket, and if he tried to get insurance with Ryan's $8K voucher, they would laugh out loud right in his face), SS, and a public school pension. That's it. without those he would have absolutely zero income. Yet there he sits, day after day, watching Fox News, complaining about socialism, over paid teachers and unions. It is, in a word, sickening. Fox is a cancer - a severe illness - in this country. the people who watch it are mentally ill. the country will not survive while the cancer is allowed to remain.

That said, it isn't going anywhere unless someone mcVeigh's it.
