Yes, I think he will tear us apart.
No, he will bring us closer together.

I'm sorry, I forgot that all you have to do to be liberal is denounce Bush and all you have to do to be conservative is agree with him. My bad smart guy :_(
Unfortunately, I am not as smart as you to only concern myself with these things. I actually looked at the details because I am, clearly, retarded.
Fox news mostly plays host to xenophobia, homophobia, ethnocentricity, undisquised racism, warmongering, proponents of widening surveillance with diminishing civil rights, douchebags who insist its "enhanced interrogation" - not torture- and an occassional rich white guy who explains that the super rich and corporations turning record profits still have it just as bad as you. This isn't actually conservatism. This is idiocy with a neo-conservative (the inbred fourth cousin's once removed roommate of true conservatism) twist.
But seriously - no sarcasm - you obviously have no understanding of politics or what conservatism/liberalism are and lack anything greater than superficial understanding of what you see.

Wow, I'm digging this post up but whatever.
Right, Fox is still conservative and CNN is still liberal. Call Fox whatever you need to distance them but it doesn't change their political agenda. Pointing out the obvious has nothing to do do with my understanding of politics or my intelligence level. Sorry if I didn't feel like elaborating on a well known fact. To be honest I don't like either, they both lie to me from the minute I turn on the TV telling me they are "fair" or "balanced", its all bull****.
Politics in this country is pretty basic. It's a competition of who can kiss the most ass without getting **** on their face.
You're basing this on what the popular perception of conservatism is, not what actual conservative political philosophy in the United States is about. What Fox News pushes is actually Neo-Conservatism with a healthy dose of non politically alligned idiocy, it has a lot more in common with leftist Trotskyism than Conservatism/the Republican party pre-Reagan. I even said this before... in the post you quoted. Fox News just isn't conservative.
I can't honestly say I've seen enough of CNN to form a very solid opinion, but what I've seen on there is quite centrist, toothless and in the vein of Fox News generally just pro-government fluff.
Well at leat you sid you dont want much CNN because your opinion is wholely wrong. They are most definately liberal, just watch the coverage of Obama and then watch coverage of McCain, its obviously swayed towards Obama.
Although both are Dbags, there's a lot more good things to be said about Obama, so that might explain the news coverage. Also, I vote no to war in Iran/no to another President who's clearly a moron so I'm not voting for McCain.
