"Fox News Against The Right!" (Posted on Ann Coulter's Website)
Coulter / Slate ^ | May 25,2007 | Mickey Kaus

Posted on 05/25/2007 11:02:33 AM PDT by ftro

OK, why did Fox News have to cover that volcano erupting? As I said, conservatives can't count on Fox to keep the immigration debate boiling. Fox isn't the conservative cable channel. It's the Bush cable channel. Try to find the immigration bill controversy on the Fox home page. (It's there, but you have to look way down. Even then it's spun deceptively in a pro-Bush way: "As plan moves forward in the Senate will House sink it?" As if it's already a done deal in the Senate and only those Pelosi Dems stand in the way. ... )

Bombard the Democrats as well, especially the ones that ran on an anti immigration plank and the ones in marginal districts who could be vulnerable. keep pounding on them.

Amnesty is the new thing dontcha know !

Since the rule of law is down the toilet why can't we get amnesty for not paying income taxes ?

Seems fair to me let's see the elites and their govt shrivel up and die !

Conservatives are usually not anarchists but I could make an exception in this case.


BUMP

At some point in the very near future it will become evident that only imbeciles get their "news" from a blinking box in the living room.

The next generation of leaders must go directly to the sheeple bypassing the MSM entirely.

We need a conservative cable channel. It doesn't have to be all news. Just a pro-American, conservative channel that cover all aspects of conservatism. Go in-depth with the issues, have some shows about conservatism (maybe have "The Libertarian Hour" thrown in too).

Oh, and Saturday nights should show a Reagan movie.

If this bill passes, I will be changing my current stance on policies.

I will be vehemently against big business, and befor any tax to hurt them.
I will be a major proponent of taxing the rich.
I have not had time to look, but when I find the businesses behind this, especially the key Rep’s, I will be boycotting their products.
I will not support anything to do with the Catholic church, and now believe in seperation of church and state.

This is a sellout, so I will to. I will do whatever I need to do expel Republican’s who voted for this bill, even if it means voting Democrat. Not that this matters, it will be a Democratic landslide in the future anyway. This party who preaches ehtics and everything else has none.
It’s our own fault, the signs were there, but we to busy actually WORKING, PAYING TAXES, and OBEYING THE LAW to organize protests against this bill. Oh, and I will be praying for my 5 year old to forgive me in 20 years for kind of country I left him with, not that he would know how great it was reading Mexican History Books.

Earlier this week, Rush mentioned that he had been visited by an "emissary" from the White House who tried to gain his support for the President's position on "immigration."

True, but that happened years ago, not current.

Fox News is NOT conservative. It only seems conservative, because it presents conservative views along side liberal views. The MSM only present liberal views.

O'Reilly says he is not a conservative and he's right. He's a self-described traditionalist, which usually lines up with conservatives, but not always. O'Reilly is an enviro-wacko. He's a populist on economics, although he opposes taxation for the purposes of re-distribution of wealth.

Many of Fox News folks come from ABC (Brit Hume), NBC, CBS (O'Reilly) or even CNN (Bill Hemmer + Greta).

Murdoch does fundraisers for Hillary. He just saw a market for 'fair + balanced' news coverage, because all the rest of the news was unbalanced. He's no ideologue or crusader or movement activist.

Fox News is what it is and nothing more. No reason to get upset, other than to call them, if true, on their 'unfair and unbalanced' coverage on the immigration bill.

If they pass this bill and Bush signs it I willnever vote Republican again, ever, and I will never send any money to these crooks.

I’m sure the Democrats will appreciate your missing vote.
