Wonder how the FOX anchors feel having trashed France and Canada
so often their shows? Wonder how they feel now that the Bush administration is depending on France for many foreign policy actions and is forming a new alliance with Canada? It's being reported in today's WP about the secret Iran and Iraq negotiations between the US and France.

I remember so clearly how the FOX folks just smeared France and Canada...especially Gibson.

15. It really does, because...
there was no excuse for drinking the kool aid.

The facts have always been there...that he lies, that he fails, that he uses and abuses. They turned a blind eye and ALLOWED themselves to be duped.

2. They don't 'feel' anything, so they won't have any reaction.
They'll just keep on spinning in whatever direction the WH gives them.

4. You're assuming they have a memory
Last month's spin point does not have any relation with what's being said NOW.

They all have collective amnesia. If caught in a blatant lie, they just stop talking about it.

6. They don't care
They'll just follow the new line. You don't really think they believe everything they say, do you? They're just actors playing out a role.

11. Bill OhReally, as you may or may not know, is boycotting Vermont
because of that whole thing with the Judge who gave that guy who raped and abused a girl a very reduced sentence.


So, anyway, some guy called in to his radio show last week asking Bill where he should get maple syrup, if not Vermont. OhReally suggested Canada.


But wait... I thought we were boycotting Canada for some stupid reason or another...


Hmm...

14. My 1000th post on a shameless plug.
Not a plug for me, I don't have a penny in it, but I know several people in Northern New York who make maple syrup. You can always buy Northern New York maple syrup. Most bulk syrup buyers are from Vermont. I don't know what they do with New York syrup, but much of it goes to Vermont.

Or Canadian, Canadian syrup is good too.

Or screw Bill and buy Vermont syrup.

It's all good, and a new batch in a couple of months!

12. Why do you hate America?
Don't you realize FOX does a valuable service to the country by smearing a person or country that speaks out against our Glorious Leader? FOX does not have any need for the truth, and will only use it when it benefits our Glorious Leader.

FOX - 'We determine the truth, so you don't have to.'

13. With the great unwashed...
...and their short attention span it is meaningless. Fux can say whatever they like, they and the * regime stand for Amerika and the democrats are "weak traitors." That is the established narrative. It is as simple as that. Fux will turn on a dime and none of their viewers will care.

That is why polls don't matter. Scandals don't matter. Ratings don't matter.

All that matters is branding, keeping the propaganda consistent.

Repubs = good.
Dems = bad.

Now, what's on Oprah...
