3. I think it's telling that even on FOX, the pro-torture guy was outnumbered 2 to 1.
You don't need a weatherman... etc. etc. :P

some moral values. Why is he there?

8. I get the sense that Shep has a conscience...
...as evidenced during Katrina:

10. That F-bomb must have taken out at least 100 Freepers!
"AAAArrrghhh! What kind of bullshit is this, Faux? You're supposed to give us Freepers feel-good hate speech that we can regurgitate when someone tries to lay facts on us. Why isn't this Shep guy calling Obama Socialist? What's going on Faux? I'm scared!"

23. Freepers heads exploded when Shep
Edited on Wed Apr-22-09 11:38 PM by sabrina 1
made fun of Beck a few weeks ago. Looks like you know your Freepers :rofl:

I checked out their reaction to Shep's latest unfortunate display of humanity so no one else has to. They always live up to expectations:

Some of the comments are priceless!

America even SHOOTS people and KILLS them. Really. Hate to break it to you, Shep. Thank God Shep never joined the military.

I couldn't agree more! :rofl:


And another genius weighs in:


To: DrGop0821

Watching Shep Smith is f***ing torture.

I have a strong stomach but watching Shep is more pain than I can stand.

Hey, speaking of f***ing torture Shep, how *was* your last date with Barney Frank? Did you have to pay extra for the torture?

Yep, they've figured it out! Anyone crazy enough to condemn slaughter and torture must be GAY!!

Is there a special formula that produces these neanderthals, I mean is it genetic, or is it environmental?

11. I always wonder why Shep is still on that channel.
He really is the only reasonable one at that station.

14. funny
It's funny how you can call someone a Nazi, Commie, socialist, a babykiller (pro-choice) without any discretion on cable TV, but as soon as someone drops an f-bomb, everybody freaks out.

15. Does anyone remember Smith's coverage of Katrina?
I thought he did a great job. Always seemed to have more of a conscience than anyone else there.

19. "WE ARE AMERICA! WE DON'T FUCKING TORTURE.
WE DON'T DO IT."

There it is. Can't get more plain and to the point than that.

I don't watch FoxNews at all, but I like what I've seen of Shep Smith on a few videos, and I fucking love what he did here.

A country that condones or accepts torture of prisoners is not the America we love, and it's not a country I can pledge allegiance to. Torture has already occurred. The precedent has been set. We've stopped doing it, and now is the time to erase that precedent by prosecuting those responsible. It simply HAS to be done.

21. Sheperd Smith is like Iowa
You'd think he was an ignorant right winger but then he proves you wrong. He's really starting to impress me.
