Limbaugh Tells Fox News Dems Trying to 'Steal' Private Sector The conservative radio talk show host blasted the Democrats' health care bills as a front that would steal money from American businesses and effect the partial takeover of the private sector.

The conservative radio talk show host blasted the Democrats' health care bills as a front that would steal money from American businesses and...

If Virginia gubernatorial candidate Bob McDonnell thought he was going to get friendly treatment on "Fox News Sunday," he was in for quite a surprise. Fox host Chris Wallace grilled McDonnell - appearing without Democrat Creigh Deeds, who declined repeated interview requests from Fox - on topics from McDonnell's views on women in the workforce to whether he'll be able to fund road projects without raising taxes or cutting other services to child care. "If we do a good job on job creation and economic development, Chris, you don't cut anything because we expand the economy," McDonnell said. The GOP...

Here is video of ACORN CEO Bertha Lewis appearing on Fox News Sunday today, where she was questioned by Chris Wallace. GOP Rep. Darrell Issa also appeared on the show. President Obama refused to appear on Fox News today, even though he appeared on five other Sunday shows. So, Fox News Sunday booked Bertha Lewis and Issa. Lewis said "any organization is not entirely perfect," and admitted she was outraged by what she has seen in the undercover video tapes. She said, "Internally, let's have some reform." Issa said Lewis needs to agree to a full review of how past...

Bertha Lewis, the CEO of ACORN was on C-SPAN this morning talking about her appearance this Sunday on FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace. "I respect Mr. Wallace. I think, he really does try to be at least fair and balanced and thoughtful." Says Lewis of the network, "As you can well imagine they are not my favorite station."

Appearing on “The O’Reilly Factor” last night (September 18th), Chris Wallace asserted that the 0bama Administration is “the biggest bunch of crybabies I have dealt with in my 30 years in Washington.” The discussion addressed the fact that President Obama is doing all of the major Sunday News Shows, except “Fox News Sunday”. Wallace pointed out he could understand why Obama would be upset with Glenn Beck or Sean Hannity, but O’Reilly’s show and Fox News Sunday don’t just “beat on him.” Bill O’Reilly added, “The power shift in the media is now with FOX, FOX News, and talk radio....

The strategy of a full court media press is obvious. You dominate the media cycle for at least a day and likely more than that. So, President Obama will take to the airways and appear on every network including Univision. That means that Sunday will be all Obama all the time on all news networks, radio, and newspapers. It will be a day when his appearances will be analyzed and hyperanalyzed. In fact, the analysis has already started just with release of snippets of the interviews.

Oh boy....when the MSM starts to turn on the messiah you really know the guy has fallen back to earth. Here is Chris Wallace bemoaning the fact that the White House is the "biggest bunch of crybabies" he has ever encountered on the job in the last 30 years: [VIDEO AT SITE] Reagan's White House, one of the most professional. Obama's White House....the worst bunch of scallywag's! Bad part is that he notices the tactic is working on some of his colleagues. (Excerpt) Read more at floppingaces.net

If you are wondering what Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow are going to be spending the week talking about now that the Kennedy memorial is over, get over to Foxnews.com and watch former Vice President Dick Cheney’s blockbuster interview with Chris Wallace. In an extraordinarily blunt, straightforward—and witty—interview, the former Vice President gives his unvarnished, no-holds-barred opinion on the revelation this week that Attorney General Eric Holder was beginning a criminal probe of CIA interrogators, and the implications it has for national security. While Cheney is composed and relaxed throughout, there is little doubt that his outrage at...

<p>WALLACE: Mr. Vice President, welcome back to "FOX News Sunday."</p> <p>CHENEY: It's good to be back, Chris.</p> <p>WALLACE: This is your first interview since Attorney General Holder named a prosecutor to investigate possible CIA abuses of terror detainees. What do you think of that decision? CHENEY: I think it's a terrible decision. President Obama made the announcement some weeks ago that this would not happen, that his administration would not go back and look at or try to prosecute CIA personnel.</p>

Here is video of Sen. Specter and Rep. Ryan on "Fox News Sunday." When Sen. Specter was asked why he thought public support for President Obama's handling of health care has dropped sharply he answered "it is dropping because of so much misinformation." (Watch Video)

So we've got this year's Food Network Star and we eagerly await Melissa D'Arabian's first cooking show. We wrap this year's contest in this post and make a promise we'll be sure to keep.

WALLACE: Joining us now is the former speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich. He is also the author, along with his daughter, of a new book called “5 Principles for a Successful Life.” And, Mr. Speaker, welcome back to “FOX News Sunday.” GINGRICH: Good to be here. WALLACE: House Speaker Pelosi continues to deny that she was ever briefed on the enhanced interrogation techniques that were actually used against Al Qaida operative Abu Zubaydah. But a newly released list of congressional briefings -- and let’s put it up -- says that Pelosi received, quote, “a description of the particular EITs,”...

A goodie from this morning’s Fox News Sunday courtesy of Greg Hengler. Think of this as a blunter — and therefore meaner and funnier — version of the question Tapper used to make Gibbs squirm. We all know what the correct answer is, and we all know that Sebelius can’t give that answer. The suspense mounts: Can she figure out a tactful way to avoid saying, “Yes, he’s a moron”? Incidentally, after warning Americans about the dangers of confined spaces during this time of non-epidemic, Vice President Crackpot hopped the Amtrak home to Delaware yesterday. A symbolic show of support...

Congressional Quarterly has posted a transcript of “Fox News Sunday,” including this exchange between Chris Wallace and Newt Gingrich about the former House speaker’s conversion to Catholicism: WALLACE: Mr. Gingrich, you have been a Baptist most of your life, and last Sunday you converted to Catholicism. Why, sir? GINGRICH: I’m not talking about this much publicly, but let me just say that I found over the course of the last decade, attending the basilica, meeting with Monsignor Rossi, reading the literature, that there was a peace in my soul and a sense of well being in the Catholic Church, and...
