    Haven't watched any of these shows in decades (only Sunday show I occasionally watch is Zakaria's show GPS) so have no idea how or whether they lean one way or the other but thought this analysis was interesting.
    Man...look at how that left wing bias dominates (he said sarcastically)!

    Soaking wood chips/chunks is necessary.



    Talking about politics on forums and social media is cool and is welcomed by all.

    Here’s one: Michael Jordan didn’t really quit the NBA to give baseball a shot, but rather was suspended by the commissioner for gambling.
    That's just plain Un-merican.  Just remember the ceilling IS the roof!

    Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

    Laughable. Doesn’t pass even the smell test let alone the eye test 

    let me explain in part how the deception is perpetrated. They book panelists that are labeled one way or the other on the MSM shows, but they know they will preach the company line on the issue they are going to discuss. No diversity of thought or opinions just in labeling. It’s a fraud. For instance, if you had @JohnInCarolina and @dmw on a panel, one would self identify as a liberal democrat the other a republican. However, the republican would agree with the liberal on nearly everything. It’s a fraud. See? The panelist May be conservative on a particular issue, but not the one being discussed. 

    Its obvious to to anyone with a pulse. It is shocking to me that you might not truly see it. I suspect you see it but choose to deny it. IDK?

    I no longer identify as a Republican. I'm still a small "c" conservative.

    How he voted is not germane to my point except to
    maybe strengthen it. Lol

    How would you know this is the deception they’re practicing Pete, when you only watch Fox News?

    Is this your version of name calling “light”? What I said is true and obvious.

    1. Remove head from sand
    2. Open eyes
    3. Remove hands from ears. 

    There you go.

    Btw. The conservative shows use this tactic as well, but it’s ussually relegated to the side show opinion shows as opposed to SOP throughout the liberal networks. It’s obvious. People don’t get booked without knowing what they will say.

    John does not deserve a troll flag for this. I've been very public here and on other social media platforms about my political standing. I voted straight ticket Republican until 2016. In 2016 I voted for every Libertarian on the ticket and Republicans otherwise. 

    Tuesday I will join with many other Republicans and former Republicans, and vote straight ticket Democratic. I am grateful to Steve Schmidt, Charlie Sykes, Max Boot, Tom Nichols, Michael Gerson, Captain Chesley Sullenberger (Sully), David Frum and many other prominent voices that care about the future of our country and that of the Republican party.

    It sounds like you’ve really spent some time studying liberal networks and how they operate Pete.  You should pursue a degree in Navel Gazing.

    Oprah and Will Ferrell are campaigning hard for Stacey Abrams here in Georgia. I am going to try and still enjoy Elf this year in spite of this.

    So that’s three out of five between us.  Plus I went to @henapple gathering and BBI. No show.  He’s the big foot of the forum.

    She’s done such a great job managing her own finances, I’m surprised you don’t want her managing the state!
