WATCH: Fox Uses The SAME EXACT Propaganda To Attack Iran They Used Against Iraq In 2007:



"In 2007, the war in Iraq was still raging. With no exit strategy in sight and the hope of another Republican administration in 2009, the GOP launched the next phase of its war mongering, led by its chief propaganda machine: Fox News.

Fox ran with the same rhetoric and lies it used to help convince Americans that we needed to destroy Iraq and remove Saddam Hussein. Weapons of mass destruction were a certainty. Al Qaeda was building an army. The same exact garbage they sold us to put $2 trillion on the country’s credit card so Halliburton and the Carlyle Group could profit from no-bid contracts was playing out again before our eyes.

Meanwhile, Iran was ACTUALLY building a stockpile of centrifuges under Bush’s nose, causing yet another foreign policy disaster for President Obama to deal with."

...........

And now as we love and breath and listen Fox is doing the exact same thing again with the exact same garbage again spewed relentlessly and endlessly through its vast array of free speech megaphones.

really news, its an entertainment channel, that pretends to do news, its more like a cheering section for the GOP, they treat all news like its a football game, cheering for the GOP side and giving their opinion of things which are coming from the far right. Rodge Ailes probably directs a lot of these talking points himself, .. Fox tells lies and outwardly admits its does..and they have gained the right to do so. Its the GOP propaganda machine..pumping out waves of hate, and loathing, against its enemies.

They have basically ruined our country along with hate radio, Clear Channel, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage,
Ann Coulter and others.

I used to try to point out facts but soon learned it was like talking to a frog.
