@Ralph
Someone tell this guy that 25-54 IS the money demo in news, please.
Jayson? 25-54 is da money demo
Only morons watch a cable news channel from 8-11 PM. It looks like FOX has twice as many morons as MSNBC.
@Ralph
He’s just mad some of us have lived to be old, hopefully he’ll ne old someday too
@Dave
Hi Dave this is Moron Coffee dude, hows it going?
@
They Knew!!! It seems Obama and his people knew before the attacks in Libya that there could be trouble on 9/11.
What a scandal!!!!!
So they were lying from day one.
Not to worry the corrupt vermin in the lib. media will cover it up.
After all they took a sacred oath to protect the political career of Barrack Obama.
Is there a full moon tonight?
Not bad Coffee, how’s going with ya’ll
Too bad Steve Kroft didn’t ask a number of probing questions of the President, about the Libya attacks, on Sixty Minutes. I am sure Kroft is just sick about it from journalistic point of view. Boy CBS could have hammered the President on the 6:30 broadcast tonight.
As public service I will watch the network news to see if they report any of this.
Looks like Mother Jones is at it again. Not as terrible as the 47% video but it sort of rehashes on how Romney’s main goal was never really helping people out.

NEW ROMNEY VIDEO: In 1985, He Said Bain Would “Harvest” Companies for Profits
This clip shows the young CEO focusing on businesses as targets for his investors, not as job creators or community stakeholders.

A twenty seven year old video? So everything Obama said in his life is fair game. If they put this on the nightly news I would expect Obama’s socialist rantings to be played right along side.
Rat just like the righties deny the polls u deny one major Fact Larry O has beaten Greta with some regularity in the Demos and a few times in total viewrs recently Dr Maddow is doing quite well as well against Slsnt head Hannity, she beat him two times last week alone and won the Demo overall last Tuesday, So the comparison was stupid you cant deny MSNBC has gained alot of the demo and are running tight every night. BTW the advertisers ONLY care about demo as any honest broker on this site knows.
I am off to watch the nightly news. If I don’t make it back tell my family I never really liked them.
How on God’s green earth did you righties get stuck with Romney, seriously. Toughest gun laws in America under Gov. Romney, Obamacare under Gov. Romney, just those two items could qualify him to be Obama’s VP. What’s with Romney apologizing about paying low taxes, I thought this guy was for low taxes. What a wimp.
Steve,
Campbell soup closing means loss of jobs to 700 full-time workers.

US State Department Is Removing Staff From Tripoli, Libya
Also–After 16 days, the FBI has still not been able to investigate the terror scene in Benghazi!…… the crime still hasn’t been secured.
@papa
I think the video just puts Bain capital in proper perspective if Romney tries pass himself of as a “job creator”. He basically was a “wealth creator” not a “job creator”(not that their is anything wrong with that but it’s basically don’t try act you know some special secret to creating jobs due to your work experience)
oops crime scene
The repub’s had no problem going back over 30 years on Bill Clinton or John Kerry.
