Why did extraordinary steps have to be taken ?
Trying to understand: If this HealthCare bill was so good…1) Why didn’t Congress want it for themselves..and 2) Why did Dems have to bribe/extort/or offer special incentives to get their own to vote for it ?
From the PPP website… FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE January 26, 2010 Raleigh, N.C. – A new poll asking Americans whether they trust each of the major television news operations in the country finds that the only one getting a positive review is Fox News. CNN does next best followed by NBC News, then CBS News, and finally ABC News. 49% of Americans say they trust Fox News to 37% who disagree.
Predictably there is a large party split on this with 74% of Republicans but only 30% of Democrats saying they trust the right leaning network.
“A generation ago you would have expected Americans to place their trust in the most neutral and unbiased conveyors of news,” said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling. “But the media landscape has really changed and now they’re turning more toward the outlets that tell them what they want to hear.”
I am certain you did not mean to omit the fact it was republican conservatives that ranked FOX @ 49%.
This rings a bell… a statement supporting your position based on an omission… you sound like our old friend ‘amblessed’.
thanks, meant to say 74%. also thanks for your rude comments…it is nice to see nothing changes…
hope this helps.
hubris-topia…it was 49% of across the board Americans polled, duh…who is amblessed ?
If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and looks like a duck…it probably is a duck…same goes for “paying” for a vote…Don’t have to watch the news to recognize a duck.

Hey ‘hubris-topia’…looks like American’s don’t agree with you about Fox News: The latest of the “who do you trust?” studies comes from the Public Policy Polling, which posts in its analysis: “Americans do not trust the major TV news operations in the country – except for…Fox News.” “Our newest survey looking at perceptions of ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News finds Fox as the only one that more people say they trust than distrust,” writes Tom Jensen of the PPP, which does polling for Democrats. “49% say they trust it to 37% who do not.”
Always enjoy ‘hubris-topia’ comments :-)
lol…you offer a breath of fresh air… well, perhaps not fresh…but entertaining.
Do you actually believe FOX news is not biased? In no way at all? If you insist not, then you are incorrect. FOX is the most biased, leaning so far to the right it is almost comical. There are other networks that lean largely to the left but no other network can compare to the bile FOX spews. I might not be more intelligent than all FOX viewers, but I certainly have enough intelligence to realize and admit when something is only presenting one side. I don’t want to hear that either way, for the right or the left.
And, again (boy you never seem to ‘get it’), just because a show or station has millions of viewers does not make it reliable or truthful.
utopia, since you come accross as ‘knowing all’, once again, you’re wrong - I’m an Independent…I’ll ‘lighten-up’ when you get off your ‘know it all’ high horse and respect other views rather than whine/stomp your feet and insist ‘I’m right’ !!…THAT is not attractive.
*Utopia, nowhere did I say I watch ‘Fox only’ as you imply - why would you perpetrate such a ‘one sided’ lie ?…
perpertrate such a one sided lie…
lol. lighten up. and pull in your conservative fangs…it is not attractive, especially in one who presents as a PhD.
Utopia, nowhere did I say I watch ‘Fox only’ as you imply - why would you perpetrate such a ‘one sided’ lie ?…and if they’re the most ‘biased’, millions of viewers…are they not as smart as you ?…could you possibly be wrong ?
Your first question seems non sequitur. Congress already has health insurance. The bill is to help people who don’t have health insurance to get it.
Not all Democrats are liberal. The Democrats in small backward states are often more conservative than the Republicans from more affluent and populous states. Conservative Democrats have many of the same philosophical problems with the government getting more involved in health care that Republicans do.
I just remember every since August, Reid and Pelosi were insisting what a great plan for ALL it was and how it Must be passed immediately…seems if it was so great, they would have wanted in on it that’s all.
again…you are missing the point. Congress currently HAS health insurance (excellent goernment health coverage) and this was to cover those who DON’T.
As for bribery and extortion…quit watching only FOX.
Sorry, I thought paying for a vote met the definition - I’m an Indep, but I enjoy Fox…don’t know why you bad-mouth it when it has 3 or 4X the ratings of the others I read.
High ratings are no indication of a good tv show and they are especially not an indicator of good, truthful, unbiased news reporting. FOX is the most biased network. I do not receive my information from them. In fact, I do research and have never relied on something so one sided for information.
