    Ailes has been pretty specific, albeit quietly, about what is news on FoxNews. Morning shows and prime time shows are not news, they are entertainment. The only news show which is fair and balanced is the 7:00 EST Fox News, everything else is agenda driven. Meanwhile, Ailes is a puppet, he just thinks he's a real boy. Murdoch and the Saudi Royal family own FoxNews and Ailes just does what he's told.

    Yeah, why would a news organization think of running a retrospective on the first 3 1/2 years of a President's term and the results of said term?

    Oh, results like Bin Laden dead, health services for millions of people who didn't have them before and GM back to perfect health didn't seem to be a focus.

    "Perfect health"? How do you define that?

    And, regarding health services, are you referring to the health plan that hasn't gone into full effect and could very well be ruled unconstitutional?

    As always, thank you for delivering. The comedy is great.

    Fox still blowing that dog whistle? I didn't realize they followed Trump's lead.

    Um, making a profit, not on brink. I'll take that as a plus, considering the slab of the work force saved thereby. And I'm referring to the numerous provisions that have gone into effect, including some my family has benefited from.

    From the Detroit News:

    "Michigan firms held their own as the state placed 20 companies on the 2012 Fortune 500 list of largest U.S. firms.

    General Motors Co. moved up to fifth place and Ford Motor Co. moved up to ninth as the auto industry continued to rebound.

    The two companies — the largest in Michigan — accounted for $286.3 billion in revenue in 2011."

    The government saved health care and the auto industry. If a Wall Street takeover is next, then we'll really be making progress.

    If Ricketts has his way, Romney will be saving the Cubs.

    I'm sure that's comforting to the 1,300 people GM just put on a five-month vacation a few weeks ago...
