  • inactive, on 11/07/2008, -3/+11Fox News... Pfft.
  • inactive, on 04/03/2009, -3/+11Right. After all, the economy isn't one of the main reasons he was elected or anything...
  • AmericanElitist, on 11/08/2008, -0/+6hmmm, reports of the highest percentage of non-working adults in 15 years probably didn't have aything to do with it I guess...
  • avataros, on 11/08/2008, -0/+4"Today, the Dow Jones Industrial Index posted its largest one-day gain of 1300 points. In related news, Sarah Palin was on hand in St. Louis to throw the ceremonial first pitch to open the home opener for the Cardinals. Fox's own Neil Cavuto said this is concrete proof of Palin's economic gravitas and influence, despite her maverick outsider status as the governor of Alaska. Back to you, Sean and Alan"

    Make sense much? Yeah, I thought so too.

  • EugineMW, on 11/08/2008, -0/+1Dick Morris and Fred Barnes are not Fox News, but contributors. If you watched the entire programs you will have seen there were other opinions who questioned their analysis.

  • inactive, on 11/07/2008, -6/+1The snort-worthy tinfoil-hatters at Progress Central must be light headed from the election results and just temporarily forgot to that all bad news is Bush's fault.

    It's not just Fox News; the AP is blaming Obama for the stock plunge that started even before he had a chance to take a victory lap in Barack Force One or start a fund-raising front on a government-reserved domain: http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gHs5OM3gFG_DytQ ...
