I cant believe it. Fox News has actually run a couple of articles critical of Trump. Could they be seeing the light? Also this tidbit: www.foxnews.com/world/russia-passes-laws-banning-fake-news-disrespect-of-government A law against disrespecting the government? Against "fake" news? This could be where we are headed - who said that when fascism comes, it will come disguised in a flag of nationalism? We need to be on guard!

I haven't been watching Fox news as much the last year or so. When I did, I tended to watch Shep Smith's show most often.
That was before I saw the fact that he was gay. I was surprised by that when I found it to be true, but it was also surprising to me how little difference it made in my enjoyment of his presentation and his personal slant on the matters being discussed. I do disagree with him on some matters, but I like his apparent skepticism of some of the material, and his obvious disgust with the president's versions of the facts.
I share much of that same distrust of the truth as spoken by DJT, but as I always tell anyone else raking the current pres over the coals, the important thing is....he's not Hillary!
That is the one saving grace to his reign so far. His appointments to the SC and to the district courts, and some if not all of his staff, have been better than we could possibly have expected from her.
It's hard to sort out the wheat from the chaff when comparing DJT tweets and rants to MSM lies and distortions, and eventually it just wears you out without providing a satisfying feeling of having won a point, let alone the game.
History may tell, but it's only written by the survivors and victors, not necessarily the ones who were telling the truth as it happened, if indeed any were. Searching for the truth has always been a difficult endeavor and one with an elusive goal line. It's easy to be distracted by the more pleasant or palatable "truths" offered along the way, and the struggle is often abandoned as being an impossible one.
I think we are going through a particularly polarizing period of our history and that polarization is being used by some on each side and has been for quite some time. That situation has arisen before in history, and has sometimes led to tragic circumstances like war, but has more often led to periods of more reasonable discussion and moderation with cooler heads leading the way. This one could still go either way, IMO.
Isn't there an old Chinese curse that asks "May you live in interesting times"?
The more important thing might be to make our best assessment of how we came to be in this particular pickle, and how we can best prevent repeating that mistake.

could this forum be leftist now? Fox news is a FINO, Fox in name only, it is no longer Fox. I'll add this, Fox will endorse Budajudge for President. Made this prediction this morning and shazam, OAN announced Murdoch just donated the max to him while at the same time the President was questioning Fox news lame questioning of Sanders.
I made the prediction based on Fox news addiction to homosexuality, its all consuming nature will not allow anything or anyone who doesn't feed it, no matter what.
Matters not, Trump is has the nations support.

So, are CNN and MSNBC more reliable sources for "fair and balanced" reporting?
Just asking. I am always looking for ways to stay better informed and receive unbiased information.

It's not hard to be more reliable than those 2. It's funny, Murdoch just shelled out 30 pieces of silver and ne did this week.

Lately I've found OANN to be the most honest reporting available. OANN= One America News Network
If your cable provider doesn't offer it, change cable providers!

Interesting. Lots of room for speculation about early support from unexpected donors. Could it be a "poison pill" to give Bootyjudge the early boost that could snowball him to the nomination, with the expectation of him being the candidate we'd most like to run against in the fall? Watching the Dems caught between bashing the LBGTU crowd and losing the unionist lunchbox portion of their fan base would make for some interesting politics, and they seem to be setting themselves up for the same mistake the GOP made in the last go-round with seventeen vying for the primaries.
One seemingly unelectable candidate with a devoted minority support base can be propelled through the primaries if they're played right and many who might have otherwise voted against him are left with their favorite candidates having dropped out due to weak numbers in the early races. It's a weakness in the system that didn't show up until the modern primaries became more open and less of a show between the candidate selected by party leaders behind closed doors and some doofus they wanted to "run against" to make the voters feel like they'd made the decision themselves.

Good one Russ..
I think the Dems are creating a circular firing squad...
I think it will be Trump against The Groper/Hair Smeller..

Do not care .for any of them wrote in wifes name last presidential election As much as I detest saying this...you need to understand that by not giving your vote to the lesser of the two evils, you are in essence voting for the greater of the two evils. I`m not so much a fan of President Trump as I am against anything the dems want to do to the country. I`ve also come to believe that the Lord may be doing a work for the American people through this extremely flawed man, and granting us a bit of a reprieve. Had hillary klinton gotten the White House, especially on the heels of what Hussein obama did to this Republic, we would have fallen. I believe very, very deeply that if you really believe in freedom, individual liberties, character, values, ethics, and the Lord, Jesus Christ, you simply cannot vote for a dem.

If you keep voting for the lesser of the evils; why should they give us something better Obviously, feel free to vote your conscience, but, as I said, if you don`t vote, you are in effect voting for the greater evil. Haven`t you seen yet? They`re not going to offer us what we want, because that doesn`t fit their agenda., and so, if we willingly allow the greater evil to take hold, we have no right to complain.

IMO, the answer is the Libertarian Party. I have voted mostly Libertarian for the last several election cycles, and have recently joined the party officially. I still vote AGAINST the candidate that I REALLY want to see defeated, but vote L in the races where a candidate is available and I would prefer to cast my vote to show my general preference for a smaller and less intrusive government, reduced debt and taxes, and fewer wars to "protect American interests" without a better explanation of just what those interests are and why we should offer up the lives of our youth to protect them.
"Reason" magazine is a good source for more details and positions on issues, and is available online. Jon Stossel is there, I always enjoyed his interviews and positions when he was on Fox, back when it was still really Fox.

I`ve listened to many of the Libertarian candidates, and mostly, they`re not for me. On social issues, such as legalization of drugs, we`re not even close to being on the same page.
