1. OMG! Have the Fox "news" casters nothing better to do than to spin lies?
(I know...it's what they do). Representative Weiner said nothing of the sort that Fox was saying. They really sounded like a bunch of lying idiots. Every one of them looked like they knew exactly what they were doing - spinning the truth. So they all got the memo to try and discredit Anthony Weiner - good luck! This attempt was lame and fell so flat that only a Fox news junkie will believe it. But hey, they'll believe anything.

6. It's because they know
that none of their indoctrinated viewers will fact check them.

3. First of all, his name isn't pronounced like an Oscar Meyer product, but like
the vintage drink made from grapes. Am I right?

Secondly, how could anyone who works at this lying network have any self respect?

4. No, his name is pronounced like the Oscar Meyer product...
CNN, FOX, MSNBC, and Real Time with Bill Maher have all introduced him the same way (like the Oscar Meyer product) and he's never corrected them. That's also the way he pronounces it. FOX may be filled with lies, but with this, you got nothing.

15. Fox is just up to their usual shenanigans...
The video shows a series of clips showing various Fox hosts and talking haircuts claiming that Rep. Weiner is advocating for states to be able to opt out of the federal health care plan because it's too expensive. The clips are followed by the actual comments made by Weiner, in which he says that he'd like the administration to show stronger support for a waiver program that would allow states to opt out only if they came up with a better plan.

Hope this helps.

8. Let me guess
Fox "News" didn't send anybody to the event, but James O'Keefe was kind enough to provide them with a tape, right?

10. I guess Fox "News" simply can't
tell the truth. They distort the viewer's understanding of an issue so they favor a corporate position. So vulnerable, gullible Republicans vote against their own best interests. I laugh in the face of someone that tells me they heard this or that on Fox News. Fox news has ZERO credibility.

12. Republicans lie.
They can't help it. It's in their DNA. Being the target of a Pox News attack means you're honest.
They have no shame. They have no sense of decency. They're Joseph McCarthy on steroids.
