Chairman's Comments:
Did everyone hear the news that Fox News parent company, Newscorp, gave $1 million to the republicans, specifically the republican Governors Association? Anybody think it should be the other way around?
The Fox News channel gave away any responsibility to being a "news service" a long time ago. They should be referred to as the Fox Propaganda Service. A real news channel would never let a blithering unbalanced idiot like Glenn Beck display his blackboard lies and lack of knowledge on a daily basis.
Senator Mitch McConnell, Senate republican leader, says he will "take the President at his word" that Barack Obama is a Christian. Maybe we should take the Senator at his word that he is an honorable member of the US Senate. Or maybe not.
