What happens to Fox News
when we win back both houses of Congress, and ultimately the presidency?

Do they implode? What?

4. You kiddin'? That'll be prime time for them...
If Democrats control everything in D.C., Fox News will be on them all day every day, waiting for just one politician to screw up.

6. Not at all.
They get to complain about the democrats destroying the Chimp's legacy and holding up the march of freedom. People like Faux and Rush and their ilk can play it from both sides, look what they did to Clinton.

7. If the dems take one or both houses
faux will begin blaming dems on everything starting Thursday morning and it will continue for the next two years. Their experts will find fault with every breath the new Speaker takes.

How bout them Hogs?? Class of 79 here. Love the AVATAR. Is that a DU AVATAR?

10. Nope home-made.
And the Hogs are kickin' ass and takin' names. Tennessee's next, then Mississippi State.

I'd like to see THIS team play USC. It's not the same team that played them earlier this year.

21. You don't know Dick!
That is the Hogs starting QB against TN; Casey Dick. If ya can't beat the kitties at home how ya expect to beat the Hogs in Fayetteville? It should be a nice trip for Vols Fans since Fayetteville is the most beautiful college city in the country.

Good to see you are backing another Arkie for President.

It'll be a great game for College Football Saturday. Its just a shame the SEC spends all season beating each other up then trash like Notre Dame get a good bowl game for no apparent reason.

8. No. What will happen is...
Edited on Tue Nov-07-06 11:05 AM by TechBear_Seattle
They will take all of their "True Americans NEVER criticize Congress or the President, no matter what!" rhetoric, shove it up their collective memory hole, and switch to a 24 hour, 7 days a week tirade of criticizing Congress and the President, demanding that the Administration be impeached top to bottom for even the weakest rumor of wrongdoing or scandal.

They will become, in short, their own example everything treasonous and vile about the "liberal media." :evilgrin:

11. Full Attack Mode
Nancy Pelosi will be more evil than that Femi-Nazi Hillary Clinton (Rush's nickname -- not mine).

They'll dig dig dig for dirt and if they can't find any, they'll make it up.

In other words... business as usual.

I'll be more interested to see how they spin Mr. Stay the Course's cut and run from Iraq, especially now that an ever-increasing number of their viewers think the war was a mistake.

12. Be Prepared; The Right-Wing Lie Machine is gonna go into Hyperdrive.
Edited on Tue Nov-07-06 11:23 AM by emulatorloo
And the fox branch will be more vicious and vindictive than ever

More and more hate will be directed at Democrats, and more and more lies will be pumped out.

14. They will call the repukes the winners regardless of the Dems
taking control.

I can see it now, some bubble head talking bimbo, "there aren't losers in an election, we are all winners, because we are americans...the dems will destroy this nation."

15. They'll revert to what they did to Clinton during his 8 SUCCESSFUL YEARS
of PEACE, HOPE AND PROSPERITY!

tear him down any which way they can - complete with music and logos and regularly scheduled programming...

22. They start giving massages to gay bashing gay evangalists
I hear it's very lucrative.

And far more honorable than what they've been doing.

23. They won't implode, but it sure won't be good for them in the long run
I would expect that if we take over today and then win the presidency in 2008, Fox will be hurting real bad within a year of that.

24. They will do just what they did with Clinton: all bashing all the time
That is what is so hypocritical about Hannity and the others who protest when we legitimately complain about Bu*h. 1. they are legitimate versus the made up stuff that the right-wing used 2. They were relentless in their criticism of Clinton. A hair out of place was cause for an outrage.

25. They will start reporting Demoratic Congressional scandals
Like . . .

John Conyers has a taste for White women . . .

(That was a tidbit the Nixon White House had ready for him in 1974; they received their documentation from an anonymous White House named Colson.)

And if they don't have any to report, then, in good Karl Rove fashion, they'll make it up. Of course, this will always be in the form of a question . . . .

Does Senator Reid have Mafia connections?

Does Speaker Pelosi cause cancer?

Where was Barack Obama the night Natalie Holloway was murdered?

26. The funds really start rolling back in
and they get to blame all the world's ills (more so than now) on Democrats and liberals ...

profits soar due to billionaires wanting the propaganda to spin toward them never ever having to worry about paying taxes ever again ... as they sit on their numbered bank accounts in the Cayman Islands ...
