    That is true and an expression of free speech.
    (just as you were free to type your tripe)

    How did Beavis go from red to green as a result of this?



    Then I'm sure you've appreciated The Daily Show's incredulity at the whole issue.

    You're right. They should have waited until after the GOP primaries. You never know if someone could have won the nomination on this.

    Very predictable. But I have beaten you to that punch, dear idiot cousin mullegun:

    http://www.nationaljournal.com/dail...-more-birther-coverage-than-fox-news-20110428

    See above- That only covers the a two week period - not the previous two months

    Second, you'll note it only covers %'s, Fox ran a lower percentage of birther stories, sure, becuase they were busy running other f-ktard stories, about how he's a communist blah blah bullsh-t.

    Not to mention the fact that half the coverage on MSNBC was basically Maddow et al saying how birthers were ****ing idiots and pointing and laughing at them. So there's that, brah.

    The fact is that Fox ran more birther stories than any other network, - as they have for the last three years. That's why idiots like ORLY, Corsi, Trump, etc find such favorable ground there. And why Tommy ****ing tuberville is on Fox & Friends, being a birther (oh, and by the def. of the nat'l journal's "study" - that incident wouldn't even count.)

    BUt in basso (and I guess your) words.............52 segments in < 2 months = they "hardly covered it at all"

    that seems a bit rude and uncalled for.


    I think you are wrong about that because they ran much less stories about Obama in total.

    BigTex?
    I would think you could have just posted the corresponding number from MSNBC and CNN instead of all of this.

    "ORLY" has been completely against the birthers from day 1 (even angering a large portion of the "birther" republicans because of it). He slammed the whole thing again last night. He's criticized Trump for using the issue. I think the only person on Fox who probably would even say something like "release the certificate Mr. President" is probably Hannity.

    You're thinking of the wrong ORLY.

    Worth noting again: basso's "Fox hardly covered it at all" =

    52 feature stories in 7 weeks, forming 2.5 solid hours of pro-birther ranting, including:



    man that's a lot of "hardly covering it at all!"

    tell me basso, what does Fox do when they really try to cover something?

    Not surprising.

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/42786288/ns/politics-decision_2012/

    Publisher of upcoming 'birther' book makes no apologies
    Man who pushed questions about Obama's birthplace says he shared information with Trump

    The publisher of an upcoming book questioning the circumstances of President Barack Obama’s birth took credit Wednesday for fueling conspiracy theories about the president’s origins, saying he paid for an army of private detectives in Hawaii and provided information about the issue to Donald Trump.

    Joseph Farah, the founder and chief executive officer of World Net Daily, a conspiracy-mongering website with its own publishing arm, also said he has no intention of standing down despite the White House’s release of the so-called long form birth certificate showing that Obama was born in the state of Hawaii on Aug. 4, 1961, as he always has said.

    “I’m not apologizing for nothing,” a defiant Farah said in a telephone interview with NBC News, insisting there are still questions about Obama’s citizenship aside from where he was born.

    LOL Ok ok. I completely forgot about her.

    Funny though that the clip of her show just produced is from MSNBC when Sam just ranted about Fox giving her airtime.

    Somebody in this thread said that African is a nationality.

    Nationality- membership in a sovereign nation or state.

    Africa is not a nation, it is a continent.

    The current term to describe somebody of African descent is "Black", however to refer to them as a member of the African race is correct imho.


    *****

    Directly related to the thread. Obama should have never had his people release this, it will not shut up the "birthers"
