Even the
OUT OF WORK SPECIAL on Fox at 9PM did well 1,937
True holiday numbers for the rest of em
Second consecutive day in which ‘The Five’ is the top program in the demo.
I’ve often wondered what the ultra-right-wing lunatics who praise Faux “News” on tvbythenumbers.com would sound like if I met one of them in real life. I got a hint this morning; Chris Hayes was guest at about 8:30 am on C-Span’s “Washington Journal”. One of the callers blurted out “I hate you…you suck”. The double-take on Chris’s face was priceless; Lucille Ball couldn’t have done better. Then, indulging in a level of wit that this miscreant would never understand (as well as the word “miscreant”), Chris began his reply with: “Jason ARTICULATES the feelings of many out there, etc. Yeah, “articulates” all right.
@AppleStinx
Yep, we may be talking PrimeTime for “The Five” soon.
The “REAL” news on FN during primetime is the lowest of the ratings. Just shows that people don’t want news anymore. They want entertainment, opinion news that tells them what they want to hear. Oreilly, Hannity, The Five.

Laurence
I have often wondered the same thing about someone that watches MSNBC. There are so few of them that meeting one in real life would like finding a needle in a haystack.
You used the word miscreant now that is impressive.

You make a good point about the news. I find myself tuning out the news and watching opinion TV. I watch MSNBC sometimes. I always like to know what the enemy is thinking.
Jeff
When the ‘hell’ did I ever say I worked for the “EPA?”Damn! “You’re STUPID!”
It shouldn’t be hard to look up Jeff, just look in the archives.Look it up Jeff, because once again you’ll find out that you’re wrong ‘AGAIN’. Unlike you, I work for a living and don’t sit at a computer screen and c/p Media Matters.Get your facts correct.Stupid!
obumbles Lies: FEC Records Show Obama Super PACs Outspending Romney Super PACs By a 2 to 1 Margin
Just like sucklow and jeffie poo poo
Obama is out begging for campaign cash daily. Sometimes he attends multiple fundraiser per day, makes illegal campaign phone calls while flying on AirForce One and blatantly lies to the weak-minded masses who still believe in almost everything he says. He’s begging for so much cash that he’s broken fundraiser records.
The latest Obama lie involves Super PAC money. Obama is out there campaigning that those evil Super PACs, those who support Romeny not the ones who support him, are influencing the election with all this untraceable cash. Instead Obama and his O-bots slam Karl Rove and the Koch brothers, while ignoring the fact that their Super PACs are outspending both combined.
Well, as we’ve come to learn, Obama lies and lies often.
Just like sucklow and jeffie poo poo
You know in the time I have been on the site no one has called me stupid yet. I am sure it will happen, just hasn’t happened yet.
Any takers!!!!

@Italian Mike
The ONLY person I’ll ever call stupid is myself and Nancy Pelosi
@
Isbles
I understand your passion but calling your opponents names lowers the discussion. Best to make your points and move on.
Italian Mike: “someone THAT watches MSNBC”? The pronoun “WHO” is the correct word to use in such a construction. I am in fact, a carbon-based life form with human DNA (Like carbon, I even have balls). And if you visit here often, then you realize that MSNBC gets cumes of a million viewers or more for its primetime shows either at its Eastern time or first airing or Eastern plus Pacific primetime showings. Rachel and the guy who spells Laurence incorrectly actually have audiences close to the number of viewers of “The Daily Show” and the “Colbert Report”.

Well now, who saw THIS Coming huh?
Department of Justice Used Research From Political Ally to Justify Blocking Texas Voter ID Law
Nothing new here. This DOJ, under Obama and Holder, wants voter fraud because it aids dumbocrats and obumble.
The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee on Thursday accused the Justice Department of using data from an “agent of the Democratic Party” to bolster its case for blocking Texas’ controversial voter ID law.
“(A) Hispanic registered voter is at least 45.6 percent, and potentially 120.0 percent, more likely than a non-Hispanic registered voter to lack (state-issued) identification,” the head of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, Tom Perez, told Texas officials in a letter in March. “Even assuming the data most favorable to the state, Hispanics disproportionately lack either a driver’s license or a personal identification card issued by (the state), and that disparity is statistically significant.”
According to Perez’s letter, the Justice Department based its decision to block the law on “the state’s own data” — data handed over by Texas months earlier after the department requested more information. But hoping to bolster its upcoming case in court, the Justice Department recently submitted a report from Harvard University political science professor Stephen Ansolabehere – who used the Washington-based firm Catalist for information.
In his letter to Holder on Thursday, Smith took direct aim at that firm, citing a “conflict of interest.”
