‘Fair and Balanced’ Fox News allows only Republicans to debate Obama’s budget.

This morning on Fox News Sunday, Chris Wallace welcomed Sen. John Kyl (R-AZ) and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) to discuss President Obama’s budget plan — with not a single congressional Democrat or White House representative present to defend it. Predictably, Kyl and Ryan attacked Obama’s budget (Kyl called it “terrifying”); Fox News gave Obama’s critics an 15-plus minute opportunity to slam the budget without interruption.

Later in the show, Fox News panelist Juan Williams defended parts of the plan — but only after Bill Kristol, Brit Hume, and Chris Wallace alternated taking shots at it.

3. They listen to both sides. There's the Right, and then there's the FAR Right.

They then let the viewers decide who's (more) right!

4. I noticed on This Week

The questions for the Dem were as follows: The pukes think, the pukes say, the pukes believe

The questions for the puke were, what do the pukes think, what do the pukes say, what do the pukes believe?

Bill O'Reilly did the same thing, his Obama speech analysis show was all Republicans, not one Democrat was on the whole show.
