Fox News spin on Clinton and he Journalists
So Clinton goes over to North Korea for talks and the two journalists get released.

Now if Bush did this I'm sure Faux would label him a hero.

But since it was Clinton, they said "Clinton has been negotiating with Terrorists.

1. Faux needs to go ask those journalists what they think of his efforts
There's always time for Diplomacy.


But some Dumb Asses don't get it.

2. The only surprise is that Fox's spin isn't "Clinton gets criminals released from prison"

3. I remember a "Batman" episode
For some weird reason, Batman was running for Mayor of Gotham City against the Penguin. Although Batman was universally regarded as a good guy, the Penguin succeeded in convincing a lot of people that he had something to hide behind his mask and costume. His clinching argument to the voters was who they saw the candidates pictured with in the papers – Batman was always surrounded by criminals! The Penguin, on the other hand, was always pictured in the company of Gotham’s Finest, the police who kept the citizens safe.

I think in the interests of truth in broadcasting, Fox talking chuckleheads should dress like the villain’s henchmen from the Batman series: T-shirts that say “STOOGE” and little masks to cover their eyes.
