    Fox is in business to make it's viewers happy.

    Those <1% candidates are obviously interesting to less than 1% of viewers.

    No one cares about them. They aren't going to win anything. If anyone really wanted to see them, they would have a greater than one percent standing in the polls.

    If they want to campaign, there are plenty of other networks willing to give air time to Republicans, like ummm... umm.... umm... well, sorry, no. Every other major network is only giving airtime to the Democrats.

    There are 15 republican candidates right? In an hour debate. That's 4 minutes/candidate. If its only 8 candidates, they each get about 7 minutes. It makes a lot of sense. Doesn't it?

    If you think about it.

    Briant, I'm sure, will miss the trutherism of Ron Paul, but he can read it online while he reads about Chavez as well. Dunno why Briant even continues the charade.

    Maybe they should alternate in which of the "mainstream" candidates they drop since they are essentially interchangeable anyway.

    BTW, if you guys get Toopac and GTech, you could just about form Voltron.

    As I recall, democrats surrendered and retreated from Fox (just like they want to in Iraq), while Republicans went on the hostile MSNBC. Democrats don't seem to be willing to take on anything tough.

    And someone is complaining about Fox? How many were on the debate on MSNBC? Ten? So MSNBC is guilty of the same *supposed* crime? Good Lord, liberals sure do whine a lot. Nothing but complain!

    This is a bad idea. Include all the candidates instead of the ones Murdoch likes.

    But you, AGS, Alex Jones, Ron Paul are trying to find the "truth" to save the planet, we are just following Bush & trying to wreck it, doesn't that make your gang more like Voltron?;)

    You almost got to be the head too, but the cigar-smoking smiley(?)face won out :D

    I updated the picture, now the whole crew has a place. Don't feel bad if you got a foot, it's just where your avatar fit best--besides it's the foundation :D

    So Gworld do you have an opinion on the actual thread or anything said in it, or are you just attacking members again? it's a wonder you don't get an infraction ever time you post.

    isn't constantly talking about gays, bending over, and little willy's a sign of being a pedophile these days?
