I think that using This Kennedy
person as the spokesman makes
the message meaningless. Maybe
the opinion has validity. But I will never believe anything that comes from this person's mouth.

johnshiel, don't allow yourself to be intimidated by the likes of a woolfess in she...ps' clothing. It appears that the eiriamooch has long ago adjudicated to herself the mantle of 'ultimate authority' on every subject. Her job at IC is to put the 'shrieking exclamation point of libtard self-righteousness' on every discussion, no matter what that discussion might be. Hers are the never-failing libbo talking-points, the infallibility, and the last word. Don’t even think of arguing! ----- She will invariably trot out the wisdom and corroboration afforded her by the likes of the most prestigious and rigidly dogmatic apostate, contrarian or pundit whose words ever graced the pages of any rabid liberal rag, book or manual. But if she quotes him/her/it you can bet it’s ‘the gospel’ because she has been duly self-anointed as an 'expert' to transmit the truth according to her [and only hers] sources.---- However, if you want to find out for yourself whether her preaching is or is not biased, simply google David Frum, read through his resume, and you’ll see for yourself how much truth there is in the Repub/conservative bona fides this person accords him.

Grammar police: "and its empowered large corporations" should be "and it's empowered large corporations".
It's all this bad grammar on IrishCentral.com that's dividing the nation!

People do not watch FOX to be "informed" they watch FOX to have their pre existing biases reinforced. If anyone has a doubt look up the bio on ex Nixon man Roger Ailes who runs Fox. Haters seek hate, bigots seek bigotry and they will find both labelled as "fair and balanced" on Fox.

johnshiel, in his Nov 20, 2011 article in New York magazine, available on line, David Frum wrote, "I’ve been a Republican all my adult life. I have worked on the editorial page of The Wall Street Journal, at Forbes magazine, at the Manhattan and American Enterprise Institutes, as a speechwriter in the George W. Bush administration. I believe in free markets, low taxes, reasonable regulation, and limited government. I voted for John McCain in 2008, and I have strongly criticized the major policy decisions of the Obama administration. But as I contemplate my party and my movement in 2011, I see things I simply cannot support." In a 2009 Newsweek article, he warned the GOP about giving Rush Limbaugh too much influence in Republican Party policy statements. Thereafter, he tells that FOX News dropped him as a guest and he found himself banned on other broadcasts as well. If he's not a conservative, no one has convinced him of that, and maybe he's really a prophet of the demise of the GOP.

Mr. Frum is a conservative? On CNN? How can you tell? Usually I can tell a conservative by the things they say, but not in this case. Just wondering... how DO you pick him out?

And NBC is a bastion of impartiality? Washington Post? NY Times? Give me a break. 99% of the media is avowed liberal/leftist.

johnshiel, David Frum, quoted below, is not a "leftist" but a conservative. Those of us who are on the left are deeply concerned, but "enraged" is over-statement. We are concerned because the problem-- which you choose to ignore-- is not policies but TRUTH in the media. We could debate policies IF we were all working with accurate information. If you wish to change policies, begin by finding and bringing to the discussion a set of accurate facts.

the pot calls the kettle black in this instance... wreckless leftist policies are ripping our country apart and destroying its vitality and, perhaps literally, its integrity. Media orgs like Fox shed light on this and eneble more Americans to percieve the destruction taking place. Is it so surprising that non-leftists are enraged?

Read it from CNN conservative journalist David Frum: "The real locus of the problem is the Republican activist base and the Republican donor base. They went apocalyptic over the past four years. And that was exploited by a lot of people in the conservative world. I won’t soon forget the lupine smile that played over the head of a major conservative institution when he told me that our donors think the apocalypse has arrived. Republicans have been fleeced and exploited and lied to by a conservative entertainment complex... the followers, the donors and the activists are so mistaken about the nature of the problems the country faces.... I went to Tea Party rallies and I would ask this question: 'have taxes gone up or down in the past four years?' They could not answer that question correctly. Now it’s true that taxes will go up if the President is re-elected. That’s why we’re Republicans. But you have to know that taxes have not gone up in the past. And 'do we spend a trillion dollars on welfare?' It is false. But it is almost universally believed" --"Morning Joe," MSNBC, Nov. 9, "Why GOP has been lied to by a conservative entertainment complex."

If those being led about by their noses into the Tea Party were to ever gain enough intelligence to comprehend what's been done to them, they would turn with a vengeance on their handlers, whose real agenda is the restoration of a tyranny more evil than that which the founding fathers of America sought to escape.
