The sheep are happy. What does it matter if they are living
in the safety of the slaughter house? They are protected from the
big bad wolf outside. The sheep are happy.
As every sheep knows, it’s only ever their neighbor who
has to worry about the friendly butcher, after all, he’s
protecting them from the big bad wolf.
But, Tyler, the important point is that Fox News has been consistently shown to be in the pocket of the government. However you see it, this is a good thing.
And Jeremy… I doubt it. Likely an edit by whoever submitted that video to Youtube.
He must REALLY hate America….LOL! No way was that really on FOX. That “judge” is a tool. He probably isn’t even a real judge.

Sounds like the Savage Coconut needs to do some reading.
Andrew Napolitano is 1.) A former judge and 2.) An outspoken critic of our governments failed policies since 9/11. He now works as an analyst @ Fox News and is probably their most independent analyst.
I’m sure the last part of the video — the close-up of Napolitano’s mouth — was edited by whoever submitted it to YouTube. I’m equally sure that the words as you hear them were spoken by Napolitano on Fox News Network.
‘Fox News has been consistently shown to be in the pocket of the government’
Or is the government in the pocket of Fox News? Consider the fact for a moment that Rupert Murdoch is, in fact, the man with the loudest voice in the world, controlling a huge percentage of broadcast, print, and new media globally. Recently in the UK cabinet ministers have admitted that they were co-erced by Murdoch’s right hand man into passing legislation, lest they’d lose the support of NewsCorp.
Sheep go to heaven, Goats go to hell…..
Even if some of the sheep are happy as is, some are wanting to wonder into the rest of the pasture that was promised to them. So you can deny some rights, but not everyone will agree to constitutional rights being denied
Notice he said CONGRESS is taking this away. Who controls congress right now? Democrats. Forgot that the Republican controlled congress and a Republican Executive Branch (who wrote it) put it into place.
This is about next years elections. Blame ‘those in power’ (the Democrats) for what the bastard Republicans did in the fist place. Fox is being foxy, as usual.

It appears that’s what our government wants us to think.

Conservatives, by definition, don’t like the expansion of the government, no? Fox news is just being conservative, like always.

Kudos to Mr. Napolitano for calling it like it is.

You don’t watch Fox News, do you, Coconut?
I’m sure the last part of the video — the close-up of Napolitano’s mouth — was edited by whoever submitted it to YouTube. I’m equally sure that the words as you hear them were spoken by Napolitano on Fox News Network.
Google “Andrew Napolitano” and see for yourself.

This essentially an advertisement. Napolitano’s book is being published by a publisher that NewsCorp owns.
Fox is conservative, but their priority is making money.
