LMAO - "Thank-You, Fox News", well, laughing with a little bit of vomit in my mouth
Thank-you, Fox News. Thank you for reporting the news other networks ignore. Thanks for not condescending to the great unwashed by informing us how we should think on a given subject.

Thank-you for not adopting the patronizing, elitist attitudes that have become de rigueur on most other networks. Thank-you for recognizing that Americans have the right to information from both sides of the aisle and are fully capable of making up their own minds on issues, given enough facts.

Thanks, Fox, for actually questioning the incessant spin coming from Camp Obama. No one else is. If not for your reporting, most Americans would still be unaware of the depth of 'change' our president is proposing. Even though the old media succeeded in getting Obama elected, thanks to you, Americans are finally being given access to information they should have had before they voted. Better late than never.

Thank-you, Fox, for caring more about journalism than about access to self-anointed elites, and cocktail party invites from the inside the beltway crowd. You have succeeded without giving in to the politically correct crowd. That's no mean feat. You have decided to play by the old, traditional rules instead of the oh, so fashionable, new improved ones the progressives have adopted. Very cool, guys. I know how hard it is these days to march to your own drummer instead of aligning yourself with the majority.

Thank you, FNC, for daring to veer from the decades old template by airing Glenn Beck during the news hour. And thank-you, Glenn, for providing information no-one else dares to report. You're the man, Glenn. The fact that you drive the left crazy means you're doing something right.

1. Since when did "thank you" need a dash?
Oh, the stupid. It burns.

2. I really wish Fox News had a mainstream left-wing counterpart.
I mean would they say that Perry Logan (Google his batshit tombstoned ass) is driving the "Right Wing" crazy if he actually had an audience on said channel?

Would anyone with a brain actually watch Perry in the first place?

3. Note to freepers: "de rigueur" is NOT French for "hard on."
It literally means "freedom boner."

Carry on. :D

4. Speaking of Glenn Beck
I was just at Target... A woman was bent down in front of the Glenn Beck books trying to find a pristine copy to take home and treasure. As she stood up with her book clutched tightly to her bosom, I said, barely audibly, "Oh my God," shook my head and laughed at her and walked away. I turned down the next aisle and looked at her out of the corner of my eye. She was staring at me with furrowed brow as if to say "Doesn't everybody love Glenn?" Nope. Not at all. I was too tired to do more.
