Dick Morris, Karl Rove, Fox News and fools: Not fair and balanced

The network of the Republican Party and the conservative movement suffered a major embarrassment on election night.

For weeks prior to the election, Fox News has been giving valuable air time to pollsters and pundits who predicted a Romney “landslide.”

These projections were in stark contrast to reputable poll results that were used in other media outlets; however, Fox News viewers were led to believe that the other polls were “skewed” against Mitt Romney. It turns out Fox News was skewed toward self-promoting “experts” who were universally wrong about their predictions.

The night following the election, we watched a tribute to celebrate Billy Graham’s 94th birthday! It was so inspiring after having been in the dumps for 24 hours. Also, a reminder that O was voted in again by a large percentage of people who claim they do not adhere to any specific faith.
Honestly, America’s issues reflect the condition of our moral fabric.

You know what? EFF YOU. Yea, Fox News is right wing. Eat it. Nobody told you to watch it and nobody is forcing anyone to watch it. Big old EFF YOU to these liberal morons. Im owning it. Sure, it has Whoraldo and Bob Beckel but Im down for just saying, “yep, its ours”. Im just so done caring about how the conservative side looks anymore

Damn man, you sound like a whiney liberal. We are so far above this level that it is beneath a true conservative to fall into their low level nonsense.

I agree that it is time for us to get much more serious...where is Obama's birth certificate, selective service records, passport applications and issuance,social security NUMBERS, college applications and transcripts, method by which the child of a single mother went to Columbia and Harvard universities, has a million dollar home in Chicago, and worked as a community organizer....MIRACULOUS I SAY....pathetic

The author must not watch Fox, they also had Trippi on, a democrat who was predicting an Obama win. Larry Sabato, was saying he thought obama would win, didn’t he.

The embarrassment we suffered was from believing Americans valued freedom. Silly us.

You are right!

Blaming FOX is just stupid.

Also, Fox’s own poll showed it would be a tight race. Is this author a liberal who doesn’t bother watching fox but thinks he’s an expert about the channel to write about them?
He obviously doesn’t know that there are democrats who go on fox who were predicting obama would win.

“The embarrassment we suffered was from believing Americans valued freedom. Silly us”

—While I, too, am very disappointed with FOX I think the above statement is very true.

Nope. Jeff Crouere is as Tea Party as they come, who started a Tea party in Louisiana, who favors secession, who votes against RINO’s.
