Ellen: FOX News Greta Van Susteren played PR agent for Sarah Palin during a softball interview with two of her friends in which Van Susteren gratuitously hyped Palin's foreign policy "experience."

Melanie:  John McCain embellishes Sarah Palin's lie about selling the governor's jet, and Fox covers for him.

Chris:  FOX has decried alleged media "sexism" all week but on Saturday they rested, and did a segment instead on the VP candidate's hair-do (which was inspired by Ivana Trump).

Chris:  John McCain must be laying on the lies pretty thick when even a FOX News reporter has to take notice.  Only, he's worried about the damage the exposed lies do to the candidate, not the country.

Outrageous Quote:  Neil Cavuto and Ben Stein shared top prize for this exchange:  "I don't think it's going to work because I think Obama, ah, people... I think, if I may say so, there's just too many people who are not going to vote for a black candidate. But, ah, especially a black angry candidate. I hate to say that because I abhor racism but I don't think it's going to work for that reason." ... "Okay, and it is your opinion that you find Barack Obama an angry black man."
