People voted no on this bill because it was loaded with pork $. Our government regularly adds on military spending and sympathy bills like this with super mega pork.


Hey John and the rest of the far left, cut some of your pet pork projects to the tune of how much this cost then pay for it with that.

Wow! Who are we calling an idiot? Irony.

To be honest I just thought it was funny. Particularly the yelling congressman.

Just wanted to clarify. Beck and Stewart both cater their hijinx to a certain audience concerning politics. Both are dramatic, one uses more humor.

The problem I have with Beck is that they try to pass him off as an actual news person. Other than that he can do his thing all he wants. He's good at what he does.

It's the same problem I have with Jim Cramer. If he wants to be a crazy investor guy then don't pretend that you're actually giving advice when you aren't. Make it clear that you are an entertainment show and not a news or investment show and I don't really care what you say or if you get facts wrong because you never claimed to be anything but entertainment.

Um...Fox News doesn't pass of Beck as an actual news person anymore than they do Hannity or O'Reilly. They are talk show hosts with a slanted opinion, not passed off as news anchors.
