coming up on Fox News this hour:
"Is Canada really a friend of the USA?"
Canadians cant watch it because Canada gave their open news slot to Al-jazeera instead of Fox.

Well if your Canadian you'll be seeing Al-jazeera instead (yes, I am very mad about that if you couldn't tell)
All the other news channels are biased towards liberals. Maybe thats why Canadians hate Bush so much? They only get the negative

I stopped at "coming up on FOX News".
Its just a play to right-wing watchers. Im watching it now and Bill O'Reilly is doing what he always does, yelling over the guest speakers.
Same ol crap.

Actually i really dont mind Gorge Bush as US preisident. I dont
nessisarily agree with the war on iraq as i to be honest have not kept
up on it and dont blive any media bs. BUT I HEAVILY agree with
the war on teroizim so i guess that makes me a BUSH supporter and i am
a PROUD CANADIAN.
I even thought of joining our armed forces when i finished colledge but
would not pass medical requierments maybe one day i still will.
Till then ill keep getting our kids to school on time by keeping these
Dang school buses running.

WGP Guy is the kind of mentality in the U.S. That i Dislike.
Think about it you sound alot like a U.S. Nazi Canada is inferior lets
kill them. Now if you read my post above you would see that i AM
canadian and that i DO support bush (No not that bush you 13 year olds)
BUT do not support the negitivity towards others Free Speech. You
talk and fight for a Free Country then instantly bash and wish to
destroy those who have a differant opion.
In conclushion you my friend are the TOOL OF THE DAY.

I don't dislike Canada. Infact thats my favorite vacation place. I was stating what some people (extremists) think of Canada. I have the same opinion you do, Bearclaw (besides the Canadian part). I was not endorsing that statement, I was showing what some people think about Canada (this is mainly because of how the majority is left-wing).
Again, I have no problem with Canada, one of my best friend's dad is form their. My friends Canadian grandparents are probably the nicest people I know.

Stay strong, Canada. Love the protesters. By the way, does any of the right-wing big mouths on FAUX news have any prior military experience? Hannity and O'Reilly talk a big game, but have they actually served? Could they be chickenhawks?

I can actually feel the brain cells dying as I read this thread.
Bill O'Rielly is essentially a conservative shock jock. He's fair and
balanced in much the same way the KKK is impartial about race.
Uh...Bearclaw are you saying you don't support bush? Personally I support bush much more than Bush. 
And for the educational part of our show. "Yank" is a slang term used outside
the US to describe all Americans.

I wish someone would smack John Gibson on FAUX. I can't figure out if he has lips or a bird beak. What a putz. By the way, what happened to O'Reilly's sexual harassment charge?

I've been spending alot of time reading over threads from www.militaryphotos.net and I like the national superiority difference. Here it is always a battle bewteen Canada and the US if there is one. On the otyher forum, everyone pretty much gets along, except for the french everyone makes fun of them there.

Check out MSNBC and C-span... How are they not liberal biased? I will give you some things on fox are conservatively biased, but some things are liberaly biased as well, making it balanced, a little of each.

better question, how are they Biased? I realize Bias is inevitable, but at least most stations have the tact to try and keep it to a minimum.

C-SPAN really can't have a bias; they just stick a camera there and show you what's going on, without any talking heads.

Hmm... so you can bash Fox for being conservative, but you all ignore the ENTIRE REST OF THE UNDUSTRY with *their* overly liberal views.
It's little things. Reporters will say things like "I don't see what the big deal is with that topic" and make one side look stupid. Or they'll cover a riot or protest and make a huge group of people look dumb. Usually the report is something like this:
"In other news, a CHRISTIAN woman killed her husband after he did such-and-such. She was mentally unstable. SHE WAS A CHRISTIAN." Insert condescending comment here: "Man, those Christians are getting dangerous, hmm?"
These are obviously not quotes, but this type of reporting happens frequently. I used Christianity because it's the new "in" thing to bash nowadays.
The liberal news networks do a lot of subtle things to make their target of choice appear stupid. Not defending Fox here, but I think most people are just blind to the bias. If you're of X set of political views, you won't register something supporting your views as a bias, because it fits right in with your beliefs. Only the aberrant things will make a person take notice, because most people's brains default to "News shows always tell the truth, disengage thinking here" until there's an item supporting a contrary viewpoint.
Fox, in my experience, tends to show more reports of good AND bad things on the news, instead of bashing whoever set up the situation.
Fox Example: New school in Iraq, then a report on a warzone.
Other networks: Warzone in Iraq, on the 'misguided' invasion.
And again, it's very subtle. You don't see networks going "BUSH IS EVIL ARRRRR". You see really low-key remarks that make the point just as clearly.
In summary:
You should all obviously keep bashing conservatives. Because we know that Christians have such a massive track record of being immoral, degenerate people with no sense of right and wrong (don't bring up the Crusades or any of that nonsense, it's totally irrelevant. I just don't have time to explain why right now).
This forum is getting more and more vicious with every political post. A lot of people need to grow up and learn how to be civil.

I don't see the huge "liberal" conspiracy that right wingers always go on the defensive about. Oh well, at least I still remember the quote from Sean Hannity saying "I'm religious, I'm moral, I love America, you bet I'm biased." Such a tool.
