Brave New Films: Why won't John McCain sign the new G.I. Bill?

:
 80,000 Jobs Lost � the website of the editor of Fox "business"  news says the "Economy Sees Good Job Growth."  That's Fox:  Edit, edit, edit until it looks good for the GOP.

 Ellen: Hannity & Colmes called on Ann Coulter, of all people, to judge the appropriateness of Air America's suspension of Randi Rhodes for her profane comments about Hillary Clinton and Geraldine Ferraro. While Rhodes was repeatedly vilified by the H&C panel, there was little opprobrium for Coulter when she likened Barack Obama to Hitler later in the same discussion.

 Ellen:
We were pleased to learn that Hannity's appearance at Rev. Al Sharpton's commemoration of the death of Martin Luther King was canceled. We felt that Hannity's record of animosity toward African Americans was inappropriate and anathema to any event that bore the King mantle.

Deborah:
Bill O'Reilly would rather feed the idea of Democratic chaos with Al Gore speculation than focus on some real issues like, for instance, the global climate crisis.

Deborah:
It's hard to believe that Bill O'Reilly is still ridiculing Al Gore and global warming. Well actually, Bill played the innocent role, 4/2/08, letting Dennis Miller do the Gore bashing.

Donna:  This week Shepard Smith did a segment on Chinese spying.  He ended up making a racially insensitive remark while his guest, a former CIA operative,  said we should take the guy out back and shoot him and that would send a message to the Chinese  http://tinyurl.com/6rxvdj

Donna
: Fox and Friends finally talked about John McCain. Wouldn't you know it- it was all good. No fair and balanced here.

Chrish:  What to do with an ad that is 80% spot-on and equates your candidate with the unpopular lame duck?  If you're FOX News, you highlight the 20% that is arguable and dismiss the rest.

Chrish: 
FOX is creating its own echo, repeating the talking point that the possibility of recession is a "media myth," analysts and Bernanke be damned.

Outrageous Quote:  Sean Hannity won big  in our latest poll for saying "What if (Obama) deep down in his heart thinks like (his controversial pastor) Wright?... Is that dangerous for this country? I think that would be dan… That would mean we would have, if he agreed with Wright and I don't know that does, but if he did, that would mean a racist and an anti-Semite would be president of the United States."  Vote in this week's poll at http://tinyurl.com/563lzb
