The video speaks for itself. Fox News is "fair and balanced" as ever. ;)

2. It just sounds better

When the crazy "you are a socialist" bullshit is coming from a guy with a british accent, I almost believe him.

4. Congratulations! You are the 10,000,000th American to make a joke about British dental care.

Your prize is a Complete Humour Makeover by the neuro-surgeon of your choice.

6. Hannan doesn't seem to know that what he is decrying is the conservative goal

starve the beast
lessen its power

Fox News is playing in a world that has killed them-documentation of their lies, talk radio wasn't ready for it and they aren't either. This new technology set the course of events in action when the sure-bet for the GOP nomination got burned on youtube (George Allen) and "excoriate" is not a word that Hannity can pull off nor does his audience receive it well(they probably think it is something their wife does to her feet)

8. I do believe that is the first time I have head Cavuto mention

'reckless spending.' Or is it only reckless when a Democrat spends it?

I guess the entire REASON we are in this hole just doesn't count?

10. Depends on the Fox performer.

I'd say Beckerhead is getting material from Freepistan.

11. Fox, Bush and the Republicans Mouth Piece for the last decade

How Fox News is still on the air after helping run are country into the ground, as Bush and the Republicans Mouth Piece for the last decade. How anyone who can watch a hour show of anything on Fox News is in total denial on how this country got in this mess in the first place.

12. First off

No shame should be put on Fox News for airing a clip that rose to fame on the Internet. MSNBC does it. CNN does it. CBS does it. My fucking local news does it. - There is a reason i no longer watch television.

If you want to blast Fox News please find something else.

Secondly. I may not agree with Daniel Hannans political views. BUT hes got a fucking point. For the last 8 years our deficit has been growing, and all i heard from my fellow liberals was 'What about the children, Think of the burden we will be putting on them' - Yet now for some reason its a mute point.

17. You miss my point...

My videos are used as visual aids for my blog posts so I don't toss much, if any, editorial in them. However, my point in creating this video was to point out the hypocrisy of Fox News which is always bashing other news outlets like MSNBC for using stories sourced to blue blogs and the like. O'Reilly, for example, constantly whines "do your own research."

However, he sources stuff to Drudge, NewsBusters, etc. Now Fox News is getting news from YouTube.

I guarantee that if MSNBC does it you'll hear a chorus of hypocritical gnashing of teeth from the right-wing pundit pit on Fox News.

15. But wasn't it the bush who often said that Reagan proved deficits don't matter?

So why are Republicons so concerned about deficits now when they cut taxes and increased borrowing all through the bush years?
