Can anyone REALLY say anything bad about Fox News at this point?

This speaks for itself, LOL. 1.7 million people my ass! And no reports of the horrible traffic that must have accompanied an event of that size. D.C. is a stone's throw away from me, and the local radio and television broadcasts were saying tens of thousands, and it wasn't even big news like the networks made it out to be. Locally, nobody could care less. More people show up for the NASCAR races in Richmond.... /yawn
Again. This is the extreme left media downplaying the crowd turnout to the best of their ability. They'd go fewer than 10's of thousands but hey, that wouldn't be believeable at all.

Have you ever been to a Nascar race? 200,000 people there. The crowd was larger than that.

You have obviously not been to europe. They give about 70% of their checks up every pay period. Exactly what economic model do you think Obama is running???? Wake up.........



I'll tell you........... :lol: Read on about DDT.

In 2006, after 25 years and 50 million preventable deaths, the World Health Organization reversed course and endorsed widespread use of the insecticide DDT to combat malaria. So much for that. Earlier this month, the U.N. agency quietly reverted to promoting less effective methods for attacking the disease. The result is a victory for politics over public health, and millions of the world's poor will suffer as a result.
The U.N. now plans to advocate for drastic reductions in the use of DDT, which kills or repels the mosquitoes that spread malaria. The aim "is to achieve a 30% cut in the application of DDT worldwide by 2014 and its total phase-out by the early 2020s, if not sooner," said WHO and the U.N. Environment Program in a statement on May 6.
Citing a five-year pilot program that reduced malaria cases in Mexico and South America by distributing antimalaria chloroquine pills to uninfected people, U.N. officials are ready to push for a "zero DDT world." Sounds nice, except for the facts. It's true that chloroquine has proven effective when used therapeutically, as in Brazil. But it's also true that scientists have questioned the safety of the drug as an oral prophylactic because it is toxic and has been shown to cause heart problems.
Most malarial deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa, where chloroquine once worked but started failing in the 1970s as the parasite developed resistance. Even if the drugs were still effective in Africa, they're expensive and thus impractical for one of the world's poorest regions. That's not an argument against chloroquine, bed nets or other interventions. But it is an argument for continuing to make DDT spraying a key part of any effort to eradicate malaria, which kills about a million people -- mainly children -- every year. Nearly all of this spraying is done indoors, by the way, to block mosquito nesting at night. It is not sprayed willy-nilly in jungle habitat.
WHO is not saying that DDT shouldn't be used. But by revoking its stamp of approval, it sends a clear message to donors and afflicted countries that it prefers more politically correct interventions, even if they don't work as well. In recent years, countries like Uganda, Tanzania and Zambia have started or expanded DDT spraying, often with the help of outside aid groups. But these governments are also eager to remain in the U.N.'s good graces, and donors typically are less interested in funding interventions that WHO discourages.
"Sadly, WHO's about-face has nothing to do with science or health and everything to do with bending to the will of well-placed environmentalists," says Roger Bate of Africa Fighting Malaria. "Bed net manufacturers and sellers of less-effective insecticides also don't benefit when DDT is employed and therefore oppose it, often behind the scenes."
It's no coincidence that WHO officials were joined by the head of the U.N. Environment Program to announce the new policy. There's no evidence that spraying DDT in the amounts necessary to kill dangerous mosquitoes imperils crops, animals or human health. But that didn't stop green groups like the Pesticide Action Network from urging the public to celebrate World Malaria Day last month by telling "the U.S. to protect children and families from malaria without spraying pesticides like DDT inside people's homes."
"We must take a position based on the science and the data," said WHO's malaria chief, Arata Kochi, in 2006. "One of the best tools we have against malaria is indoor residual spraying. Of the dozen or so insecticides WHO has approved as safe for house spraying, the most effective is DDT." Mr. Kochi was right then, even if other WHO officials are now bowing to pressure to pretend otherwise.
I see plenty about the WHO and the UN, neither of which are the United States government.

Again, how does the ban on DDT IN THE UNITED STATES BY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT lead to millions of deaths worldwide?

Answer: it doesn't. And again, we weren't even the first country to ban DDT so saying we strongarmed other nations into it is preposterous.

wow...ddt the chem that almost offed the bald eagle...really?

malaria is bad, but fucking the food chain is like using a fully loaded revolver for Russian roulette :dunce:
The eagle studies were found to be flawed. Want to know what killed 80 eagles in california last year?...... windmills.

No, I'm talking about television and radio stations whose audience can LOOK OUT THE WINDOW AND SEE THE MALL (that's that big grassy area near the capitol building and the Washington monument, btw) FOR THEMSELVES. Why not report inaccurate numbers when all their listeners and viewers live in DC? It's easier to lie to someone 1,000 miles away, that's why.

All news is ran by the same agenda. It is all propaganda. You must watch, read, or whatever and ask yourself what is missing?
There is a huge difference between fact and speculation. Fox gives fact to support speculation.

Mainstream or leftstream media

A) gives facts that Americans dont care about

B) Bashes anyone who opposes the left with the race card or any other card they might play to protect their democratic party.

America, it's not about left or right. It's about corruption and wasted tax dollars.

You're telling me that NANCY PELOSI taking a 250,000 dollar military plane ride for a shopping spree isn't wasted tax dollars?

250,000 dollars of fuel, that is. For one bitch with 10 face lifts.

Good point.

So, let's support the party that put the tax on income into place in 1913, a party that would throw you in jail for not turning over your financial confession every April 15 to Cesare ... unless, of course, you are well connected with the proper party.

Let's support the party that put the Federal Reserve into power in 1913, thereby giving us a paper money system with no real value, resulting in a 53 TRILLION dollar debt.

Let's support a party that cost 60,000 American lives in Vietnam, and another 2,000,000 Vietnamese deaths when we pulled out.

Let's support a party that caves in to the environmental whackos. You know, the whackos who outlawed DDT under false science, and that is now causing millions of deaths world-wide to the disease of Malaria.

Let's turn our support over to a whacked out party who wants to "socialize" all big business ... and who denigrates the very folks who bring us the energy to fuel the engine of prosperity.

Let's turn our support to a party that sees race behind every person who disagrees with them.

Let's turn our loyalty over to a party that has destroyed the Black family, the party that cannot wake up to the fact that people are individuals and NOT a race, gender or a homosexual.

Let's turn our loyalty over to a party that discriminates against White Males ... especially CHRISTIAN, White Males.

Let's turn our loyalty over to a party that promotes death and eugenics.

Time to get a clue, CrashLikeaWoundedEagle. You are on the wrong side of history and the issues as hand.

Vi

AGAIN! FOX IS NOT SUPPORTING A FUCKING PARTY. They are providing speculation and facts (videos maybe? they aren't doctored you morons) pointing toward the validity of the speculation.

We are a republic. A government for the people by the people. That's the bottom line. More and more Americans are seeing with each passing day that is not the path we will be staying on.

But wait, isn't that the path that got us to the point we are at today? The greatest nation in the world for 200+ years?

Home made videos don't lie buddy.

This isn't a right wing march. It's a march by people who simply want to keep their freedom.

Let me make a little equation for you.

Tax = money = time = freedom

MORE TAX = less money = less time = less freedom

its a very simple concept to grasp.

Cannabis policy IS constantly being addressed, mostly by the democrats (you can see a list of bills that have been introduced to Congress this session if you know where to look - and you'll see it's mostly the democrats who sponsor these bills). Sadly there is still too much "controversy" surrounding the issue for these bills to pass through, though there have been some interesting developments in criminal justice reform this year.


The reason the DEA raids have continued is because we've given our law enforcement far too much power. Drug raids = money, so of course they are going to continue as long as it's profitable for them and against federal law.
If you're main motivation behind supporting the left is the legalization of marijuana, then you need to get your priorities straight.

There are much more important issues at stake.

I don't mind smoking marijuana illegally. There's so many places in public that are hidden enough that i dont care.

I do care about having to work overtime to barely make ends meet and feed the plague of corruption even more.


ill be back later

proof is in the pudding bro. eagles came back after the ban and the major difference in egg shell thicknesses back it up.

we won't wipe out mosquitoes with ddt, they will fare better than species with lower birth rates (us). are you seriously not baiting peeps with this CJ?

and your point about windmills is relevant how in the ddt discussion? vertical axis windmill don't have that problem BTW.

I see that YOU think it's going to be possible for government to tax us 75%.. That will never happen people will start walking out on their jobs long before that. Could you point out the numbers that don't add up? I don't have any clue what you're referring to.
Exactly. People will walk out on their jobs.

And what will happen if everyone quits there jobs?

The debt will never be paid back.

I love people who grow/smoke weed that support a political party that wants to shut them down and put them in prison. Kind of like Jews for Hitler.
Again. It's not about supporting a party.

It's about not supporting corruption.

If you're motivation for being a democrat is based on marijuana policy then you're priorities are very messed up.

Dude, you really have no idea what you're talking about. You're like some annoying kid who has found Jesus and he has to go spread the message and convert everyone.

So, what exactly does my post have to do with FOX?

And what's with the Eagle/DDT debate. I thought DDT almost wiped out the Brown Pelican. :lol:

All I can say is that Fox news is destroying every other news network in ratings, and that is because they are ACTUALLY reporting the news. Nobody wants to watch other networks or hosts bagging on Fox or talk radio hosts. They want to know what is happening to this country. How we can fix it. With PROOF and EVIDENCE to back it up. Maybe the other networks will wake up and start showing the news again.
