Fox 'n' Friends is nauseating this morning
Just a constant stream on anti-UN propaganda so far

5. These guys know their stuff..
There's the weather guy, the sports guy and the b-grade actress. Kofi Annan must be shaking in his shoes.

19. Who was the very attractive girl who used to fill in for ED on the early
spot---the 6-7 am hour?
She was attractive and not nearly as annoying as ED Hill.

ED Hill may have my vote for being most annoying person of FOX news, except for that windbag Hannity who tops the entire list of RWers for me. (perhaps except for Mann Coulter)

31. I think that's Juliet Huddy...
she's the source of much fantasizing by right wingers.

37. It is a dumb name, isn't it?
I mean, the "Garfield" cartoons were called "Garfield and Friends." Is Fox gonna trot out Dilbert or something?

7. As Opposed To Which Time When It Wasn't?
That is the dumbest show in television news history. It's been nauseating every single morning since it went on the air. Three complete airheads pontificating about everything and knowing about nothing.

Fox news

Good for Canada I say.

18. Alan Colmes tries, but cannot be heard over Hannity's big mouth
I think Alan deserves a little more respect---he tries to raise issues, but Hannity and whatever RW POS always talk over him, around him and ignore him. He is a punching bag, but he is often right on the issues.
He was against the Iraq War from the begginning, for example.

14. I used to watch to "mock the fox" but....
...one morning Steve "Doofy" said something to the effect that Al Capone met his end by being shot up in front of the Biograph Theater. I decided that the misinformation they spewed forth was just too idiotic at that point to risk any further exposure :)

29. Nothing wrong with making a simple mistake as long....
...as you correct it. Especially if you are spouting these errors to millions of people.

It wasn't the first uncorrected mistake coming out of that morons mouth but it was definitely the last one for my ears :)

15. Simply vapid
Just nothing there. Utterly two-DIMensional. Nothing but ignorant, right-wing talk radio on live TV. Not even interesting.

:boring:

17. They are even dumber than most RW talk radio
they make Hannity seem like an intellectual. It is like Neal Boortz trying to be Katie Couric and Matt Lauer....just utterly nauseating

20. OK, I admit I've stayed away from the news for quite a while.....
However, a lot of times I see this whole France-UN-Iraq Oil for Food scandal whilst channell surfing, yet I only seem to see it on Fox News. Are they the only network that's covering this?

Fucking Fox News.

24. It is a big issue, but FOX uses it as ammo to hurt the UN
Fox is not interested in just reporting on it, but actively trying to make Americans hate the UN

you said it right---Fucking Fox

23. Is she the really foxy one who sometimes covers the very early show?
There is a really sexy Fox girl who used to do the early segment of Fox and friends who I haven't seen in a while. She was a real looker and was not nearly as annoying as ED Hill

27. Do you want a good laugh?
My Dad has Alzheimer's and the beginning stages of dementia and one day he flipped Faux on and he looked at the bimbo (excuse me for this girls but she is a bimbo) and her dress was so short that you could see her panties. Well, he asked me "What kind of channel is this Playboy" I had to laugh because his mind came back for a few minutes and i asked him why did he think that and he said because that woman doesn't have anything on her bottom half. It made his day because he got to look at a womans legs again and calling Faux the playboy channel made me laugh.

How the hell can you watch that shit...sorry

30. The UN is the new all purpose "Bad guy" in a black hat
This supercedes Chriac and definitely jumps in front of Zarqawi and Osama (and his Lt.) -see they can't find any of them (save for Chirac)and the UN is just sitting right there.

They are trying to twist the "Oil for Food" program into a justification for invading Iraq, we are just seeing the beginning of it now.

34. The UN is a new boogeyman, but Chirac is part of it
that at least seems to be the way the FR crowd looks at it---France and the UN are one and the same. Check out FR and read the posts---France and the UN---
And they seem to think the UN itself is against the US, rather than many of the member states voting against the US.

ED Hill went into an irrational rant against Kofi Annan, Oil For Food and UN parking tickets (she also said that because many delegates have diplomatic immunity they must feel they are better than American citizens. She really said this) this morning.
It was clearly just an attempt to get still sleepy people in a UN hating mood.

36. You know *I* could write that stuff
The diplomatic immunity thing is an old crying point for the "fear the world" crowd.

35. There's actually a show called "Fox 'n' Friends"??!!!??
Judging from the title, that sounds like a kiddie show. Are there cartoons and puppets on this show?
