It's been a year with Obama, so why does FOX compare the Obama term to Clinton's and not the President before him?  Check any local FOX channel or network

Come on, lets get real...why can FOX draw a comparison between O'bama and Clinton and act is if BUSH never served a termed??  They spent 10 minutes tonight comparing O'bama to Clinton with out a single word of the 8 YEARS BUSH served????  How is this fair and balanced??

It's not, just lies, which is all they have left, it just shows how they only care about the top 2%

If this is not true, why O'bama vs Clinton and not Bush (2000-2008)

I went for a local FOX news clip which I saw on TV today, but Fox does not carry local news on their web site, just their national thought,

so I can't produce a local news segment of FOX, though I can of of every other newcast




servantforuse -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 7:38:03 PM)

Because they are both democrats ?




TheHeretic -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 7:38:18 PM)

Because Bush was a highly effective President and leader after his first year?  Hell, I dunno, it's Fox.  Why are you wasting time analyzing that tabloidal mush?




popeye1250 -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 7:40:19 PM)

Because Clinton was the first black president?




servantforuse -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 7:41:20 PM)

Watch the news tomorrow night when a republican takes a Senate seat..It might even be on CNN and PBS.




housesub4you -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 7:42:16 PM)


Gee good try, but no.

Oh ferchrissake, and if they compared him to Bush, then people would scream that Obama has only just barely completed his first year in office and it's not fair to judge his presidency on the basis of a tough start.

popeye1250 -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 7:49:07 PM)

Housesub, maybe because there's too many similarities between Bush and Obama.
They're both Republicans, they both bailed out big corporations etc.
They both sent troops to Afganistan.

Really??? can you please list the things he or the GOP congress did to help the middle class?

Tax cuts??  Yes cause no jobs moved overseas.  Tax cuts to the top 2%of America
Tax Cuts; Gee ever hear of out sourcing

JOB security, Really, Tell me the last time the GOP supported MW, or labor unions?  Never !!!! they support corporate america and have voted against unions every chance they can

GOP tax cuts:  Well in 2009 AIG paid less than 1% taxes, gee look it up, on billions profit..how much did you pay?  The before tax rate is high, but after deductions they pay close to nothing, which is the only figure the GOP discusses, ask them for after deductions taxes owned by corporate




servantforuse -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 8:05:47 PM)

Bush gave a tax cut for all income levels. They are set to expire, raising taxes for everyone. It also seems to me that Obama is supporting corporate America.

Don't choke, Aldwyn.  Approval rating and legislation moved through Congress (good or bad, he got it passed).




SirAldwyn -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 8:13:44 PM)

Really, huh it seems like only the top 2% got anything, and GEE since they are still in effect why is the economy is such lousy shape??  I mean they do not expire till next year so why the tax problem today?  I mean the tax cuts create jobs and money well they do not end till next year.

HUH if the Bush Tax cuts which are still in plac (which they are) are not working now, why should we believe that even more GOP tax cuts will do better




Musicmystery -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/18/2010 8:17:33 PM)

Because tax cuts create more revenue and eliminate deficits, silly.

It's a faith-based initiative. History isn't important. Just boring anyway.

Is that not exactly what they said about Bush concerning 9/11?  That he was only in office eight months and really didn't have time to get up to speed on those terrorism issues.

And then spent shitloads of money regardless.

Somebody explain to me, "tax and spend" whiners, how "we don't have the money but we'll spend it anyway" is better.

I'm listening.

I sure as hell hope its not going to be on my local PBS channel.  I support my public broadcasting station.  The moment they start airing biased crap or political, they stop getting my money.

And Obama is in bed big time with the Unions. Then he has the nerve to go to Massachusetts and say that Scott Brown panders to special interests.




servantforuse -> RE: Watching the NEWS...Huh (1/19/2010 4:20:23 PM)

Louve00. Since when are election results biased reporting ? I guess that's PBS for you.
