O'Reilly "I Don't Care About the Constitution"
Bill O'Reilly ... a double "winner" ... including the above .... and Glenn Beck (of all people) speaks with some maturity: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036677/#34004314
Palin-occhio
Not of FOX this time but since she lies so often and, often, for no apparent reason I thought it reasonable to include it here. Listen to what Sarah Palin says now and what she said last year:

Here is an excerpt from a study to see if biased news had any lasting effects in regard to Europe and the European Union:
“But the "time bomb" of biased news was more effective than the exposure to symbols in manipulating members of the "vastly cynical European public," Bruter said.
"It shows that even the most 'unbelievable' propaganda may have an effect over time and that the most fallacious and baseless rumors, for instance, may shape opinion to an extent"
Here is the article from which the above came: http://www.alternet.org/module/printversion/143831 and it contains links to its sources. Facts and foundations for stated opinions.
This is why FOX "News" is so dangerous. The study above was conclusive when people were exposed to only BI-WEEKLY 4-page newsletters ………… imagine how people can be impacted by the 24 hour/7day a week vitriol spouted by FOX.

Here's Something You Probably Don't Know About Limbaugh's Home District!
Wow, if all the "Republican" talk about how to run a country or an economy spouted by Limbaugh (and his crowd) would work anywhere it would be in his own district, wouldn't you think? After all it is a hugely Republican district in a overwhelmingly "Red" state.
But, apparently not, the 8th District of Missouri is 435th - dead last - in female median income. It's the tenth-poorest district in America, and 25 percent of its children live in poverty.
Way to go Rush and the Republicans! The 8th District .... IS ... the reflection of your thoughts and values and there is now a home-grown challenger to the incumbent Republican. His name is
Maj.(ret) Tommy Sowers ... 2 Bronze Stars in Iraq, "led the Army ROTC at Duke, earned a Master's at the London School of Economics and taught at West Point".
And, he is running as a Democrat.
For a better rundown on Maj. Sowers please go to: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/paul-begala/a-warrior-on-a-mission-in_b_353240.html?view=print
