A new thread dedicated to the stupidity or, in this first case, outright lies that FOX tells Numb-Nuts Nation...which they eat up.

I see a great potential for this thread.

You probably ought to have talked to Tiberius before starting this thread. He's going to need a bigger server.

A thread devoted to cataloging stupidity and lies from Fox?

Oh, Fox News, how I loathe thee.

Other media outlets are biased as well, but Fox takes the cake with its blatant lies and propaganda. Conservative acolytes lap their drivel up without a thought.

Conservatards find thinking hard. Parroting slogans is easy for them.

We should at least agree to a "this moment forward" rule. No sense rehashing where tides come from.

Well....Jon Stewart's favorite tactic is to play clips of FOX FUX denouncing something that a democrat did and then go back to their defense of those same things from a few years earlier when a republicunt did it.

It's an amazingly effective mechanism.

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/12/fox-h...ws-worked/

Quote:Fox host: We don’t need smog rules because ‘whatever happened with acid rain?’ (Spoiler: Laws worked)

Quote:Fox News host Clayton Morris on Wednesday suggested that President Barack Obama’s administration had been wrong to move forward with new EPA smog regulations because pollution problems — like acid rain — were hoaxes.

Quote:“Remember acid rain,” the Fox News host laughed. “Whatever happened to acid rain? It was ruining cars. Whatever happened with that?”

However, the reason Morris can’t remember “whatever happened to acid rain” is because regulations worked.

Beginning in 1980, Congress began passing laws like the Acid Deposition Act, President George H. W. Bush amended the Clean Air Act during his term, and the EPA issued the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) under President George W. Bush.

And the last thing these 'free-market' fucktards ever want to hear is that regulations worked. Blows their whole asinine mantra out of the water.

Apparently, they think they breathe different air than poor people.

The unfortunate thing is that because he's the jester, no one takes it seriously.
