They hired him to make Fox viewers think all left leaning people are extreme and far out of the mainstream. They are going to destroy all his credibility and marganilize him.

They hired him because he will criticize the President. nt mucifer Jan 2013 #1

Well, they did NOT hire him to undermine their propaganda Demo_Chris Jan 2013 #6

It's amusing to see one of what calls itself "the Left" do exactly what they've damned PO for. patrice Jan 2013 #32
Now the question is who uses whom. My guess is that DK doesn't have what it takes to be anything patrice Jan 2013 #33
For $$$$$, as an Obama fighter, to keep his face in the public view and something to do. He will be RKP5637 Jan 2013 #34
