FOX News chided for its "Pro-Israel" journalism

I was watching CNN this morning as Frank Cesno and some others including Erik Boehlert were discussing that the news has such a "Pro-Israel" view of the fighting in Lebanon...specifically they commented that it took Fox News 90 minutes to mention 35 people were killed in a Lebanon attack and yet repeated how many times ONE Israeli woman had been killed. Erik Boehlert a columinst for Huggington Post targeted Fox News ONLY...of course...you can read it here. Basically what suprised me was that the story was supposed to be about the MEDIA's bias but in the end it was just about Fox News' poor reporting...you didn't hear CNN criticizing itself!!

Further CNN went on to say how support for Israel is going to tank anyway now that they have killed all those children. Where is the Pro-Israel stance in that statement?? However in the same shot of them carrying out children it showed...but did not mention...that the rocket launcher that was placed in the area where the CHILDREN WERE was done by HEZBOLLAH not the ISRAELIS!!! A point that gets continually lost. What kind of sick people put a rocket launcher where children are knowing that is where their enemy will come for them!!! Disgusting!...but you never hear it get turned around on them, since in the end it was Israelis that killed the children...yet the news made it seem SOOO random and blamed FOX news for being biased. How is this Pro-Israel again??

The fact that Hezbollah is hiding missile launchers among civilians was not even MENTIONED. And right after the report, they had some guy from al-Jazeera on. You can only imagine what he had to say. No coverage from Israel. But the biased coverage is showing up in their ratings.

Apparently, liberals don't think war is fair unless the same number of people die on each side. What we need is guys in striped shirts to keep score and referee. When Israel kills too many terrorists, the referee would blow a whistle and Hesbollah would be allow to launch a missile at a grade school.; 7:41 PM

That's peaceful, right?

We can't expect War to be fair, unless we are prepared to deal with a perpetual state of "Fair" War.

But none of the Liberal assertions about how War should be surprize me. These are, after all, the people who do not want to keep score in Soccer and Little League Games because then someone would lose, and someone would win.

If the truth was known about them, they don't even want to keep score in National Elections anymore.

Why anyone listens to anything they have to say anymore is what I cannot understand...

Sorry about the typo's in the last comment. Maybe it makes sense now...; 11:24 PM

25 Immutable Truths About Liberals

Over the years I've been writing this blog, I've been throwing out little self-evident truths that seem to have no exceptions that prove the rule. I've made a list of some of them and will add to it as I remember them or make up more. Most of this list I've come up with myself. A few I've borrowed from others.

1. Always expect the worst from a liberal and you will never be surprised.

2. Never try to reason with a liberal. They disregard any evidence that conflicts with their beliefs.

3. You can always tell what liberals are up to by what they accuse conservatives of doing.

4. Liberals don't debate, they argue.

5. The only standards liberals have are double standards.

6. Liberals feel, conservatives think.

7. Whenever you don't understand a liberal's motives, just look for the money.

8. Liberals cannot be embarrassed. They lack the gene to blush.

9. The Liberal Golden Rule is, "Do unto others but scream bloody murder if they do unto you."

10. Liberals don't have leaders, they have demi-gods.

11. There are no honest liberals. If they were honest -- especially to themselves -- they would be conservatives.

12. A liberal's business is nobody's business, but everyone's business is a liberal's business.

13. Liberals have an inflated sense of self-worth. They are like house flies that criticize the air-worthiness of a Stealth fighter. (Sarah Palin, George W. Bush, ad infinitum are morons.)

14. Liberals lack a sixth sense that conservatives have in abundance -- common sense.

15. Liberals never stop hating.

16. There are only two types of liberals -- the deceivers and the deceived. The difficulty is telling them apart.

17. Every time liberals get on their high horse, they get bucked off.

18. Liberal programs are so wonderful that they have to be forced on people.

19. Liberals always choke on their own medicine.

20. When given a moral choice, liberals always come down on the wrong side of the fence.

21. The only way liberals can build themselves up is by tearing others down.

22. Liberals not only refuse to learn from their mistakes, they refuse to admit them.

23. Liberals have only two political positions -- blind devotion and blind hatred.

24. Liberals are incapable of attacking the message, so they always attack the messenger.

25. Liberal diversity is only skin deep.
