    There are some things in life you can't buy.

    For everything else, there's the village idiots and serial buffoons at Fox News Channel.

    McCain's got a personal makeup artist who he's paid like $8K to, but they never mention that.

    i think it is fair to say debates like this are worthless and its obvious the attitude people have about them depends on who they like and dislike.

    Yes if you like McCain and you are willing to accept the steaming pile of crap that FNC dishes out, then this clip is probably not amusing.

    If you are not willing to accept FNC's obvious intellectual dishonesty on a scale that so-called MSM never approaches then this clip is probably amusing.

    Is it really so surprising that people totally change their positions when it deals with people they dislike? People who past here are doing the same thing everyday.

    Do people in this world actually believe that Fox news is unbiased? (serious question)

    Because I would think common sense would tell you when someone is totally siding with one side without giving the other side a fair chance. I am voting for Obama and I can tell tell when certain networks are being fair to Mccain and Obama or just being totally in the tank for Obama.

    No not really surprising - but it can still be notable.

    Yeah the subject in itself sucks but tell her not to try to pimp the words hockey mom and act like she's just a regular old Jane when she does this kind of thing.

    Im sure it wasnt the first time she's been involved in a shopping spree that was worth someone's salary.

    I agree in general, but in the present case I have cared about Palin's wardrobe and doofus's haircut equally: about zero. I seem to transcend my bias in this case, somehow.

    I was flipping through the radio this morning and heard Walton and Johnson say that all news was bias EXCEPT for Fox News, which is fair and balanced. I almost got in a wreck.

    Those are people who see life there way, and are not open to anything they don't agree with.It's like a Klansman listening to Limbaugh....do you really expect him to disagree?


    I lost all respect for that show with this comment:


    "blacks would be happy that they were kidnapped and made slaves, because they would still be uncivilized".....Walton and Johnson

    Or, in some parts of the country, a newly foreclosed mortgage. Buy your own clothes, and don't apologize for wearing the same thing twice in a month.

    In her part of the country, Alaska, $150k is enough to get you a mini-mansion!
