Fox news.  Obama is very liberal and Fox news is fair and
balanced down the middle. Obama likes MSNBC the best. The
American people don't.  Americans like Fox news. The
numbers prove it. Obama has to back down.
3 to 4 million people watch Fox News.  How is that proving
anything?

Fox only has 2-3 million (NOT 4 million) for only about 2-3 hours
a
day. Most of the day, they have about half to three-quarters of a
million.

On the other hand, 6 million people watch Katie Couic, 10 million
watch Charlie Gibson, and 11 million watch Brian Williams every
day.

Those were the numbers I was looking for. Though, the right winger
will somehow try to tell us that 27 million is less than 3 million.

Broadcast television news is not the same as cable television news. If
you were smarter, you would know that.

So you admit that Fox News isn't really all that popular, and almost
no one watches them.


He may admit it but the ratings don't:

Let's see if I have this healthcare thingy right. Congress is to pass
a plan written by a committee whose head has said he doesn't understand
it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it, signed by a president who
hasn't read it, with funding administered by a Treasury chief who didn't
pay his taxes because he didn't understand TurboTax, overseen by an obese
Surgeon General and financed by a country that's nearly broke.
What could possibly go wrong?

Thank you for posting this, Steve. Milt is not only stupid, he's a
liar. You have provided the proof. Thank you.

He didn't provide proof. Read what I was accused of saying. They're
not the same thing to anyone with an IQ over 12.

Excuse me.....you said that it wouldn't have killed you since you were
running away from it. Did you really think you were running that fast?
So, yes, in essence, you did say that the reason it didn't kill you was
because you ran so fast that it wouldn't have enough power to do so.

No thanks. I've watched just a few minutes of FNC and found it so
blatantly biased, it was sickening. It makes CNN seem downright left wing.
I think the guy they interviewed proclaiming that the H1N1 vaccine was a
plot to reduce the world's population was the straw that broke the
camel's back. Do you honestly believe that bullshit?
Probably. Sheep tend to be pretty stupid.
 ..
Still, the vaccine does contain: thimerosal, a mercury compound used as
a preservative; trace amounts of formaldehyde, another preservative; and
squalene, an adjuvant intended to increase the vaccine's potency.

None of which I want in my veins.  Call me a sheep if you like, but I
think the vaccine's risk is roughly equal to the flu's risk.

Yeah, sure.  Another libertarian displays his vast knowledge of
science.

None of those things you mentioned are in any concentration more than
a tiny percentage of what's needed to cause any harm.  H1N1, however,
has a pretty good chance of killing you.

Ask all the Viet Nam vets who were never told that Agent Orange, or
dioxin, used to defoliate the Vietnamese forests could kill them in
trace amounts.  Oh, it wouldn't happen right away.

The fedgov finally agreed that if a soldier had been in Viet Nam for
only ONE day, that they would take care of all those little problems
that began cropping up two decades later.  Little problems such as soft
cell carcinoma, diabetes type 2, cardiac problems, and possibly even
erectile dysfunction.  There's a panoply of illnesses associated with
Agent Orange, for which the Veteran's Administration will treat the vet,
and even pay them a monthly disability stipend, decades after they left
the service.

News flash, idiot. The vaccine isn't Agent Orange. To compare
constant exposure with ONE injection is sheer stupidity.

Quote:

And you want me to believe that "trace amounts" of thimerosal,
formaldehyde, and squalene are good for us?  Is that because the fedgov
told you not to worry?


No, I want you to believe that swine flu is much much worse for you.

Ain't no squalene in the vaccine. And you need preservatives to keep
things from goin bad. Just cause a chemical has mercury molecules
don't mean they's liquid mercury in it. Usin that kind of thinkin,
that salt you sprinkle on your food is half poison gas used by the
Germans in WWI.

As to whether squalene has been removed from the vaccine is
questionable.  AFAIK, you don't get to read the vaccine's label prior to
receiving the shot.

If someone told me that Zyklon B was being used as a preservative, I
would still pass on that product.  Salt may have been in it; but it
matters not.  What matters is that salt is not poisonous, while mercury
certainly is.

There ain't no mercury in it. It has thimerosal, which is a mercury
compound. Thimerosal no more causes mercury poisoning than does salt
cause chlorine poisoning.

Demonizing people makes for a really lousy argument.

However, pretend for a moment that what you say is true, that "America
is full of illiterate angry White trash". According to an earlier
post in this thread, Fox has something like 3-4 million viewers. Out
of more than 300 million people in the country, this doesn't seem like
a big crowd, much less filling up the place with "illiterate angry
White trash".

If "America is full of illiterate angry White trash", how did Mr.
Obama ever get elected?

Tis True....

Rupurt "saw" that an entire American political
demographic was ripe for exploitation in a media sense,
created Faux as entertainment for them---just like his
various tabloids and media

THen he hired a nasty rightwing idiot to run it---and
it's served that political purpose disgused as "news"

The corporation even argues that it is NOT a news

suits.

My concern is one of allergic reactions to the poison, not of direct
mortality to a poison.

Go here and read what the FDA has to say about Thimerosal, which is no
longer used in most children's vaccines due to its effect on young
nervous systems:

Fox is shamelessly leaning so far to the Right it's a wonder it hasn't
fallen off the edge.
The majority of other news broadcasts are properly labeled fair and
balanced. Put ALL their numbers together and see how Fox, the sole
bastion of Right wingness, stands up to them.
..
If you want to know what is going on in this county; watching FNC and
listenening to talk radio is a must.
No thanks. I've watched just a few minutes of FNC and found it so
blatantly biased, it was sickening. It makes CNN seem downright left wing.
I think the guy they interviewed proclaiming that the H1N1 vaccine was a
plot to reduce the world's population was the straw that broke the
camel's back. Do you honestly believe that bullshit?
Probably. Sheep tend to be pretty stupid.
..
Still, the vaccine does contain: thimerosal, a mercury compound used as
a preservative; trace amounts of formaldehyde, another preservative; and
squalene, an adjuvant intended to increase the vaccine's potency.
None of which I want in my veins. Call me a sheep if you like, but I
think the vaccine's risk is roughly equal to the flu's risk.

Yeah, sure. Another libertarian displays his vast knowledge of
science.
None of those things you mentioned are in any concentration more than
a tiny percentage of what's needed to cause any harm. H1N1, however,
has a pretty good chance of killing you.
Ask all the Viet Nam vets who were never told that Agent Orange, or
dioxin, used to defoliate the Vietnamese forests could kill them in
trace amounts. Oh, it wouldn't happen right away.

The fedgov finally agreed that if a soldier had been in Viet Nam for
only ONE day, that they would take care of all those little problems
that began cropping up two decades later. Little problems such as soft
cell carcinoma, diabetes type 2, cardiac problems, and possibly even
erectile dysfunction. There's a panoply of illnesses associated with
Agent Orange, for which the Veteran's Administration will treat the vet,
and even pay them a monthly disability stipend, decades after they left
the service.

News flash, idiot. The vaccine isn't Agent Orange. To compare
constant exposure with ONE injection is sheer stupidity.

Try reading my post, above. Just ONE day's exposure to Agent Orange and
the GI won the VA lottery.

And you want me to believe that "trace amounts" of thimerosal,
formaldehyde, and squalene are good for us? Is that because the fedgov
told you not to worry?


No, I want you to believe that swine flu is much much worse for you.

You know my personal genetic structure, body chemistry, and
illness/medication history that well, do you?

The fedgov and the mass media say that swine flu is a Bad Thing. Yet
I've seen no REAL evidence to support this. The annual influenza
epidemics always kill some people, with up to 36,000 being quoted by the
fedgov for H1N1 this year. But this number is not likely. We're well
into the flu season, with seriously late deliveries of the vaccine, and
only a thousand deaths have been attributed to the H1N1 flu. Note that
this is a VERY low risk in a population of 300 million.

I think that vaccination can be an effective public health tool. But I
think that no one's needs are served by whipping up mass hysteria as to
the dreaded oncoming Killer B..., er, Global Wa..., er, Population
Bom..., er, swine flu.

Let's see if I have this healthcare thingy right. Congress is to pass
a plan written by a committee whose head has said he doesn't understand
it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it, signed by a president who
hasn't read it, with funding administered by a Treasury chief who didn't
pay his taxes because he didn't understand TurboTax, overseen by an obese
Surgeon General and financed by a country that's nearly broke.
What could possibly go wrong?
