Top stories on Fox and Friends this morning

1. Benghazi suspect identified. John Bolton outraged.

2. Parents betting on peewee football. Mug shots displayed - all African Americans.

3. Why isn't the media covering Benghazi?

4. Border Patrol agent murderer pleads guilty - Fast and Furious connection

5. Norm from Cheers is hospitalized with chest pains.

6. Hurricane Sandy. Not a word about Romney and FEMA comments (that came in a later story and was more of an after thought than a point)

7. Making fun of Al Gore (Cause the idea that climate change had anything to do with the hurricane is just comical)

8. Romney loading trucks with bottles of water while the obnoxious media peppers him with questions about FEMA.

9. Gallup poll shows Romney still winning.

Would have been much different on Fox News if Obama was president at the time. Instead Fox News told us we to need to come together. After Benghazi it's all about the blame game and politicizing what happened.

they believe that Obama watched the whole attack on tv via a camera from a drone flying overhead; that he had Navy gunships standing by and marine bases at the ready, yet chose to do nothing. They think the attack lasted 7 hours.

They accuse him of being a coward for not stepping in and calling for a rescue of the embassy.

Yesterday showed faux noise "value"...zero. Poor coverage of the storms and the hyenas there couldn't keep politics out of it.

The sad thing is this waste of electrons still attracts enough blow hards and assholes that, along with hate radio, false memes and lies are propagated in massive doseages as we get closer to election day. This isn't about "winning" vote for Bishop Willard...it's to create as much fear and hate as they can in hopes the poutrage gets in enough ears to make this election closer than it should be.

My hopes are a week from today you'll be watch the world biggest pity party...cause I sure won't...Faux noise doesn't come in on my teevee...

They always spin it differently. Lots of fear and faux outrage. Love how they aired Norm's chest pains before hurricane news. LOL

And people watch this crap every damned day. No wonder so many Americans are stupid.

I could barely switch over to Chicken Noodle Nuze for some storm coverage...seeing Wolfie makes my stomach empty contents.

Thanks to the innertoobs I was able to find local news coverage...kudos to the New York stations who did awesome jobs.

It's amazing how insulated and unhinged faux viewers have become. It's so blatant...and obvious when you see/hear these losers spew the latest talking point. Don't dare to point out their hypocrisies (like shooting fish in a barrel) or try to correct them with facts...when you live in the bubble you can always find others in that bubble who will agree and reaffirm.

It's a shame and downright scary that people suck up that crap without a second thought...they've ceded critical thinking and in the end work and vote against their best interests.

Cheers...

I just got Direct TV, and was exploring the channels on the remote. I found Fox News, and there was Hannity -sneering over the Benghazi incident and Obama going to Vegas.... Wow...his face and body language...so ugly

The entire first half of the show was about the storm. Then two minutes on "other stories," then on to the weather. Which of course segued back to more news about the storm...
