so you are down with that? gov. operatives to make a political point, running a search on confidential information on you?
On the bright side, because of this incident Ohio has now made that a crime.

I'll go you one better. I'm betting half of them ARE Democrats.

A while back I was looking at some corporate funding stats and I was surprised to see that even a lot of FOX News higher-ups contributed to the Democrats in the past. You just never know, do you?

Too bad. As stupid and uninformed as "Joe" is, he's much more honest than the unofficial leader of the Republican Sheeple, Rush Limbaugh.

I see what you're saying. After all, Rupert Murdoch hosted a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton in 2006.

From the reports I've seen, Rupert is no longer gung-ho die-hard Republican. He's much more moderate and even liberal leaning. I understand he has substantial regret for what has become of FOXNews. However, not so much so to change it. Money still talks.
