THE DYSPEPTIC FOX

The day after Pres. Obama's visit to Congress and talk to the nation. I went to the television and tuned in the Fox News channel. I wanted to see how the Consrvatives were reacting to the hour long speech that was to let us know what steps were goin to be taken to try to straighten out the economy from what the Bush programs left to us . He laid out a plan that should make the republicans and the democrats happy and I was surprised at how many times the minority rose and applauded what he said. There were tax cuts, bailout money like what Bush wanted and there was a call for we the people to have faith in what this country is made of. WE can come back. We are a strong nation and have beaten tougher situations than this.

My point of all this is this; All of the talking heads of Fox News were not in a cheery mood. They appeared dyspeptic. In other words they looked sick to their stomaches. There was no bater and fun to be had. They really strained to find a cause to hang there hats on that would hang the Democrats. It was the weakest attempt at Partisan politics that I have seen from them in years! The Governor of LA. was parroting all the old catch phrases of Hannity, Limbaugh and the others in a weak response to the speech.

I guess I may be more liberal than I thought when I feel this way about these people, but I still feel that honest people can see the good side and the bad side of anything. They just have to get behind what they believe and push.
