Turn on Fox!!
Barney Frank is going toe to toe with Osama Bill. Bill is getting so frustrated! He keeps interrupting Barney. Barney asked him to stop interrupting and Bill said "Who do you think you are - the tsar of the interview?"

:rofl:

5. So now O'Reilly thinks HE'S "The tsar of the interview"?
We already learned tonight that he doesn't want to go out with George Clooney, and now he's the tsar of the interview? Great work there Peabody boy.

7. Classic O'Really interrupt those who don't play ball
He does this most people let him.
He gets pissed when some one doesn't let him have his way.

Thanks for the update. I'm like the others. I can't stomach going to FauxNews. Oh and remember that NewsHounds watches Fox so we don't have to! http://www.newshounds.us/

14. This was priceless!

Thanks for the link:

Wallace:

Well, ah, let me see if I can do better ah, Congressman Franks.

Franks:

All of your questions have been aimed at trying to find points of controversy.

Back to announcer:

Is he part of a Democrat plan to diminish Fox News Channel? Barney Franks squares off with Bill, tonight.


I think they are going to have serious problems adjusting to the new political climate - can't wait to see what happens when a Dem wins the WH in '08...
:popcorn:

9. Too risky, might get John Struedel or whatever his name is instead.
Fox is like sticking your head into a bag of snakes. Not worth it.

19. It was pretty clear what Fox tried to do to President Clinton. You'd
think after that fiasco the dems would of had a meeting and gave the order for no one to go on Fox!

20. A lot of politicians on both sides of the aisle
have big egos and think they can handle themselves in any situation.

16. Well let's see, Frank is a multiterm senator from Mass.,
and Bill is . . . nothing.

I'd say Barney can be the tsar of whatever he wants.

21. Actually, a multiterm congressman. This is his first term as a Senator.
He is taking Jeffers seat.

22. Barney Frank is not now, nor has he ever been, a Senator
He is still very much a Congressman. He is my Congressman, in fact.

24. Wrong job, wrong state
If you mean Senator Jeffords (not Jeffers) he is from Vermont, retiring, and Bernie Sanders is taking his place, having moved up from Vt.'s only Congressman to one of the state's two Senators. Barney Frank is a Congressman from MA and still is, not a Senator or Senator-Elect.

25. Oh Dear God! Could folks at least do a Google before posting Barney's
correct position.... Sheesh...

Sorry if this seems snarky but it's not like Barney Frank shouldn't be well known enough to Dems and to have served long enough that folks would confuse him with a newly elected that no one is familiar with.

Makes me wonder about Fox dumbing down America that no one checks things.

(yeah...I've made mistakes, too, but am glad when they are pointed out.)

26. How do people here
watch TV and use the internet at the same time?

If I even got Fox news, I would have to go in the other room, disconnect the DVD, connect the TV cable, and then figure out what channel Fox news is. By that time, whatever I've been called to look at would be over.

I'm honestly interested in how people have their houses set up so they can do this particular multi-task.

27. My computer is in my living room
at the opposite end of the room from the tv. I can switch channels and tivo scan from my computer chair. It's the only way to surf! ;)
