In a recent report, that many left wing bloggers have been rolling around in, it was stated that Fox News viewers were the most uninformed of all time.
According to Mark Joyella, from Mediaite, said daily Fox viewers, regardless of their party affiliation, were significantly more likely to believe things like...

The stimulus caused job losses
The health care law will worsen the deficit
That the economy is getting worse
That most scientists do not believe in global warming
And the list goes on.

So why do I have the big TIME emblem on my front page today ?
Time magazine employs a writer by the name of Joe Klien, who in a brilliant article has the idea that the year 2010 was a waste of time.
In his own words, he starts the article with " Nothing much happened in 2010 "
He does spend just a few words reminding us of a Republican sweep, and unemployment numbers of 9.8%, and even commented on the amount of time it took Obama to get the Health Care bill passed.
Joe then moves on to the lame duck session of Congress, and thumbed his nose at the meager results, and then reminded us that not much happened overseas either.
Article here.

It amazes me how the man could keep himself awake while mustering up the shear genius to create enough content to hand over to the people at Time magazine and collect his paycheck.

Now let's just refresh, did a poll say Fox News viewers are the most uninformed ?

Roll Call, a newspaper on Capitol Hill is reporting that Nancy Pelosi is asking for donations to help combat the so called " Shadow Organizations " that are currently targeting ads against her, and the policies she helped to bring about in 2010.
Pelosi is calling for help now because these organizations are looking to repeal the progress she has made.

Wait a minute, what progress ?
Joe over there at Time magazine just wrote that nothing has happened in 2010 ?

Here is what gets me, if Fox News is so full of lies, and if they give the viewer bad information, then how is it that not one time has any type of legal action been taken and followed through ?
Why does Beck, and Hannity, and O'Riley put it out there day after day ?
Why is it that we hear about Bill Ayers, and Van Jones, and ACORN, and border violence from Fox News ?

Not much happened ?
Well, I guess that depends on weather or not you have crossed over into the sheep mentality or not.
I am contented to be hunkered down here in the middle with my own opinions.

Yep, nothing happened in 2010. It's been an action packed year all around and especially in politics. It isn't over yet either.

As for Pelosi? She is nuttier than a fruitcake. Along with Reid and a bunch of other idiots running our lives into the ground.

Have a terrific day. :)

Nice take. I'm not a FOX News viewer. I listen to them on SIRIUS radio. That puts me one step ahead of the rest of you righties. I'm only audio duped, and not visually.

There are a few things, however, that we FOX followers are less likely to do or believe. We are less likely to get tingly feelings in our legs over Presidents that haven't done anything yet. We are also less likely to care much about anything that douche bag Joe Kline has to say.
