Why does Fox News Sunday have on Joe Biden instead of John Murtha?
He's supposed to be the one to counter Rummy?

He's not even countered Rumsfeld's implication that the Senate rejected Murtha's resolution.

2. Because he's a looks angry without substance
Joe Biden has mastered manufactured anger. He can be angry about lot's of stuff, without ever taking a substantive position on anything. He's perfect for Fox. He can play the roll of a dissenting opinion, without actually having one.

6. the answer is in the original post.
they have him on because "He's not even countered Rumsfeld's implication that the Senate rejected Murtha's resolution."

They would never let an actual Democrat on that channel.

8. Maybe Murtha has higher standards?
Maybe he's not quite the whore that Biden is?

9. Because Fox can't handle the truth.
They sure didn't want John Murtha on there kicking their butts all over the place. Horrors! Their audience would have seen someone who actually made sense.

10. Because Biden is pro-Iraq war.
Also, as somebody else has said, Joe likes to be on TV.
