So Doug Z, if you could see into the future what do you see for Zero x 4
I bet he will end up like Jerry Rubin of the Chicago 7 , Remember he wanted to kill everybody over 40, but his parents.
He grew up and his parents bought him a seat at the NYSE .
Part of the 1% for sure.
The Ryan budget was rejected last year as a farce. It’s the same this year. It voucherizes Medicare and ends it as we know it. It gives huge tax breaks tot he wealthy and closes NO tax loopholes. It mentions no spedning cuts and Lian Ryan refuses to answer where he would cut beyond Social Security and Medicare and several programs for the poor. The GOP has not endorsed it but Fox Fake News has…….
When is Newscorp going to shut down its Fox Business Channel? I suspect the broadcast TV Station in Presque Isle, Maine garners more total viewers.
two-thirds of Hannity’s audience is over 65…….
WARNING WARNING WARNING
IDIOT ALERT and he has been warming up so he is at his peak of idiotic rant!!
Dung de Dung Dung!
Anyone taking Fox Business’ advice on stocks and bonds has lost a bundle…..
GET SOME NEW MATERIAL YOU IDIOTIC FOOL!!!!!!!!
Rachel is on fire! (NOT). 99% of ussr666′s posts are bull-hit!
Rat says there are NO right wing GOP accomplishments that he feels he can mention…..not a good sign for the right wing
Embarrassing for MSNBC.
Looks like people would rather watch fair and balanced over the President’s talking points channel.

You do not know anything they have said. they are just like the rest of the Business channels.
This just in: Fox Fake News continues to beat a dead horse on Benghazi…..
Doug –I hope you haven’t been using Fox Business as you beacon–if so, you are probably not in the best shape….
So as we look once again……………hmmmmmmmmmm………uh huh……yep……uh huh……….lose..lose..lose..lose..lose..lose..lose..lose.. yep…another clean sweep!! MSDNC took a beating!! And oh yea, that was by YOUNG, OLD, and in between!!
USA8888.
two-thirds of Hannity’s audience is over 65…….
For someone who states they are not age-ist
you sure as heck make the case for it.
Your Grandma must be ashamed of you.

Again you know nothing. they are are the same. . With the same NYSE type guests.
SHOCK POLL: More Prefer Congressional Republicans Over Obama On budget…
McClatchy-Marist poll shows Obama tumbling in voters’ eyes
WASHINGTON — If President Barack Obama had piled up political capital with his impressive re-election, it’s largely gone.
His approval rating has dropped to the lowest level in more than a year, with more voters now turning thumbs down on his performance than thumbs up, according to a new McClatchy-Marist poll. The measure of how much people like him also has dropped.
He’s still vastly more popular than Congress, particularly congressional Republicans. But in the biggest political clash of the year – over the federal budget and how to curb deficits – voters split 44 percent to 42 percent between preferring Congress or Obama.
