31. The far left is as scary as the far right and neither side is in touch with mainstream America. The Democrats won back the part of the government and then they promptly start fighting amongst themselves and now have the lowest approval rating in history.

The biggest probelm, IN MY OPINION, with America's foreign policy is that we keep wanting to "bring democracy" to these other nations. That's the wrong idea. Forget about democracy, it doesn't even work in this country and the pure definition of democracy (historically) seems to be "fight amongst yourselves until you can reach a compromise that benefits the politicians and nobody else!"

What we should be trying to "bring" to other nations is Capitalism. Countries like Iran and Syria HATE our politics but LOVE our pop culture and things like Burger King, Pepsi, Britney Spears and Starbucks! Bring that to the non-western countries and stop trying to shove "democracy" down people's throats. Look how well countries like Bruneii, Dubai, Singapore and even China have done using capitalism without a "democratic" government.

Sometimes a benevolent leader is better than a bunch of self righteous politicians who only care about themselves. That goes for the right and the left.

32. new to blogging. but here goes. there is no middle ground in this country, ether your left or right . no middle ground no room or outlet for reasonable discusion. all outlets are bias to the left or to the right. shame is the best game in town used to be the chance to here both sides now it't pound the other opionions into the ground. scorched earth policy. i miss the real meat and potatoes of honest open debate. now we have the schrill sounds of righteousness or the hard rederict of of there is no other side but mine everyone else is wrong and will burn in the hell of lost ratings

33. Ah yes, the far R & L---phooey on them both.
Each spins it's fanatic vitriol in wholly unconscionable babble one attacks the other, R & D, conservative fanatic, liberal fanatic, each attempting to win the other side over, failing that, to parade like proud peacocks to say their way is somehow better. All the while polarizing the people of our nation to fevered fiery hate.
I AM AN AMERICA!
I belong to no single party. I am INDEPENDENT! At times I side with the R other times with the L and at no time with the fanatical fringe on the far end of either.
NOT, I repeat, N-O-T as in NOT because I am wishy washy, or a flip flopper, but because I am able, like the majority of my fellow Americans (not HOMELANDERS) to listen to both sides, I gather my information from many sources, dialogue with friends and family, in which we have two or more sides and then decide.
FOX is patently a far right venue. It's agenda for the Nazi Australian Ruppert Murdock to spread anti American rhetoric and further polarize our citizens.
In these still UNITED States politics and religion have proven to be subject not worthy of discussion in polite society, society stopped being polite years ago, and now the internet permits the great unwashed masses to vent their heated opinions against each other.

34. I don't understand how right wingers can constantly spew hate filled venom...by calling OTHERS hateful. Bill O'reilly hates everybody...he doesn't even let anyone on his show finish a sentence before he attacks them! Except of course for Ann Coulter, the woman who calls widows harpies and ANYONE who has ever been a fan of Rage against the machine a loser. I take that personally....I think the most American thing we can do is ask questions. This whole idea that being a patriotic American means you shut up and do nothing is truly scary. But before you go around calling ALL dem/libs hateful...take a look at the glass house that has been built by folks like bill-O and many other republicans....Hell...take a look at a photo of Mr. Romney standing next to a sign saying "Obama Osama"...I don't find that funny at all. Do I hate republicans? Absolutely not...I believe it is a fundamental right as an American to have your own personal beliefs and to express them...so respect mine as a liberal as well.

40. "Celebrate Diversity" ...except when it comes to a difference of political opinion.
Way to go far left! Keep talking about being more "open" and then attack rather than listen to differing opinions. By the way, I voted for Mondale, Dukakis, Clinton AND Gore. I have been there and am now independent. 911 changed everything. I cannot put my children's protection into the hands of a party who is waiting for the 1960's to come back around. The stakes are just too high.

41. This shithead cenk (why hasn't the FBI sent this cockcucker to gitmo yet?) doesn't know a fucking thing about. O'Reilly's site, and most conservative sites in general (but anyone who thinks Bill is on the right is a communist) actually allow anything and everything to be said. Liberal nuthouses like Kos will take down anything to the right of Mao in a heartbeat but anything calling for Bush's assassination will not only be toleratd but greatly encouraged by the assfuckers who run that freakshow. Consider this your education of what really goes on in internet-land, cenk you salad-tossing moron.

42. "Ann Coulter, the woman who calls widows harpies and ANYONE who has ever been a fan of Rage against the machine a loser"

If you're referring to the ordeal with the "Jersey Girls", Ann is 100% correct. Those stupid bitches really were after nothing more than the spotlight.

About rage against the machine, she's 200% right. Anyone who would listen those talentless fags is not onnly a loser but a wart on the anus of society itself

43. The only reason you have stared this campaign against Fox they hit the truth on some subjects and this is the only way you try to counter by all the negative. We all know there has been a outcry from liberals to go after Fox's advertisers. Guess the heat is getting close to the truth. All other media is far left wing liberals aginst this country so naturally they don't want fox around. Hillary had her slime bag wolfson on, now she's claiming he did bad for O'Reilly. Not so, consider who Wolfson works for. Dodd was on, he reminded me of that overbearing drunken windbag at every party who tells bad jokes
