[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 713532, member: 9859"] Like my signature says,...[B]Fox News Channel's new Motto:[/B] [B]"We alter reality. You are sold a preconceived narrative."[/B] As usual, your well conceived point goes un-challenged..... President/Editor-in-Chief of Law Reviews are one in the same......Sort of like calling Richard...."Dick" :congrats::student: You failed ! BTW Moreluck/BaBa....If a young unknown Obama stumbled upon a KKK Rally, just by phyiscal appearance, do you think those jobbers would consider him half black ? It's not blind support for Obama and Congress as much as squashing myths, lies, and fairy tales of the hysterical Rt Wingers. The vile attacks of Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Frank, and other members of Congress are a product of the Rights mouthpieces in the form of Conservative talk radio-heads, Sarah Palin, and Fox News Media giant, and not the actual "movers and shakers" puppets elected in GOP positions.
