i would believe it was a conspiracy if there was something for someone else to gain from it


You make it sound like some grand scheme... Someone at fox news probably thought they'd make the Democrats look bad and "accidentally" put the wrong party affiliation. I mean, I guarantee you the first thing on any news agency's mind when something like this comes up is "what party was he with?"

ok.. so lets just say this was intentional (which i seriously doubt). if fox news is soooo terribly biased, are you telling me that all the democrats watching (all 5 of em) will see the "D" and go "OMG ITS A "D" NEXT TO HIS NAME I"M SWITCHING PARTIES!!"?

They're just mad that Republicans are just plain fucked lately...one bad thing after another.

It's justice for all the dumb/evil/cruel shit that Republicans have done for America in the recent past.

Fuck Craig....he's a closet queer.

EDIT: and fuck MSNBC and Tucker Carlson too! He's another one just like Craig! And MSNBC is a bunch of assholes for letting him get away with his comments!

every news channel is biased, it is impossible to have an unbiased channel, regardless how you try. If you go into reporting, you have a fairly good knowledge of whats going on in the world, and you are going to have an opinion on things...regardless how you try to not portray it on the news, it will come out. You are more likely to tell more stories that appeal to you, and try to avoid ones that you do not like...its just how its going to be.

Fox news does it, CNN does it, fucking Al Jazeera does it....everyone in this thread knows they all lean one way or another, its not fucking news to anyone, and who the fuck cares if they are biased. I know fox news is pro-republican, and CNN leans towards the liberal area, and that is why i dont watch Fox as much as i do CNN, but then again i rather just read BBC due to it seeming like it covers more important issues.

I dont give a fuck if a senator is gay, i dont give a shit if he is a republican or a democrat, fuckin shit go make a huge fucking deal about that...there are more important shit going on in the world than OMG he tapped my foot which means hes a fag and he wants to bone me.

i love how the dems/liberals treat gay issues one way when they're talking about rights, discrimmination, etc, but then when a republican senator turns up gay they act like he's the friggin devil and should resign.

you know what the difference here is. the losers at places like this pathetic, insignificant site crooksandliars sit there watching foxnews all day hoping to nitpick some pathetic, non-news, nitpicky, who gives a shit story off of there. and for that site there's probably 30 more that are even more pathetic (all of which are no doubt in lance's bookmarks). not to mention the people who no doubt hover at those sites pressing F5 all day hoping to see some little tidbit they can go to their republican friends with and go "SEEEE OMGZ YOU SUCK"

i rarely, if ever, see web sites or groups dedicated to watching every stupid nitpicky dumbass thing that the liberals/democrats do.

Funny how the person who calls everyone morons/idiots/etc. can't read correctly. I didn't say it wasn't biased, i said it was completely stupid that something this small was blown out of proportion when i see worse bias from other news.

Everything is bias... opinions seep into what people do, how shocking. Tell me Fox is anymore bias than Lou Dobbs is and I'll cry from laughing at how pathetic you sound.

But then again, conspiracies are better than reading comprehension... sadly.

(oh which reminds me, how do i get you to unban the ip from my law school so i can get on from school again?)

Them being gay just makes it a delicious case of hypocrisy (usually), not grounds for resignation. What makes it grounds for resignation is when they're doing illegal or abusive things like soliciting prostitutes or congressional pages.

Oh by the way, will someone explain what the fuck is going on... its not on BBC (that i've seen) so i haven't read it.

I've heard some senator tapped his foot in a restroom (and possibly made a hand motion).

If thats true (no matter why he was actually there... gay or not), im not sure how that is considered solicitation. Seems like even with postitution you have to work out a monetary negotiation before it is considered solicitation. Which further boggles my mind on the fact that someone told me he pleaded guilty to the charge....

God i hate democrats and republicans.

He apparently acted in a way consistent with solicitation for "lewd activities", according to the undercover police officer on duty and was subsequently arrested. He plead guilty to a charge of "disorderly conduct" in the hopes that that would make it all go away. He has denied that he conducted himself in an inappropriate manner and, as of the latest I've heard, is claiming entrapment, apparently not realizing that a claim of entrapment would be contrary to his claim that he did nothing inappropriate.

Overall he's coming off as either an idiot or a bad liar (or both). *sigh* It's getting a bit old, really.
