Joy is doing pretty good- all she has to do is remain consistent.
i’ve never been first before—–i heard this on msnbc refering to the terrorist attack,about 4-5pm don’t know her name—— “,,,and averted a catostrophic accident” an ACCIDENT!!!!!! do these people live in the real!!!!!! no wonder their ratings are in the toilet
i guess i’m not first
Mark that’s nothing.
The media and the Obama administration refer to the terrorists as…
The alleged bomber.
They still refer to the Fort Hood terrorist as, the alleged shooter.
alleged =declared but not proved.
They are using lawyer speak.
texmex,,,don’t forget “extremist”,,,obama’s words. do these people need a nuke to land in their lap to wake up?
TexMex says:
“The media and the Obama administration refer to the terrorists as…
“The alleged bomber.”
They’d love you in Beijing, man.
here’s one message regardless of your position on iraq and afghanistan whether your democrat or republican liberal or conservative that we should all heed from George W Bush we must right 100% of the time the terrorist have to be right just once and so far under obama the terrorist have been right 3x if not for al qaedas own incompetence we would have had 300 dead Americans on christmas day and the folks at msnbc,cnn and in the whitehouse don’t understand with their constant down play of the severity of the situation
make sure we don’t offend anyone. that all that matters
If the plane were landing in new York or DC instead of Detroit perhaps it would have been taken more seriously…and of course, if Arianna Huffington or Bill Maher or Keith Oberdouche would have been on board to see the true face of evil laughing at them because they thought they were safe or exempt from terrorism because they stood up for the rights of the evil…then maybe it would have been taken more seriously

Markd, Except the American people, because they are gun owning flat earthers. That think the Moon landing was staged in a movie lot in Arizona.
I’m just kidding everybody know that it was Hollywood.
Sorry for the repost…
Go Joy go..you are almost good enough to be among the worst rated primetime opinion shows…shoot for the stars you miserable, shrieking harpie
Tony must be a crazy conservative; you can see it in his eye. Me, my bunny ears give it away.
I just learned that Rush Limbaugh was rushed off to the hospital while vacationing in Hawaii because of chest pains!
Someone called Fox News “right wing” compared to the others, anyone one centimeter to the right of MSNBC, CNN, CBS would be “right wing”.
WOW! Had NO Idea FOX News was so Far ahead!
I know that you guys hate me. But, for all those viewers who love me, all 800-900 thousand of you, I want you to know that I love me more than you love me. Hopefully, you can tell. I try to make it obvious. I am head-over-heels, honeysuckle rose, drop-dead gorgeous in love with myself. I am smart — smart as hell. I know what’s good for you and you don’t. Those t-bag types? They’re not real. That’s a cooked up deal and everybody knows it. Did I tell you that I love me? You should too! See you at 8 p.m. (after this, my latest long vacation).
LOL, Keith!
