As far as sources go though, I have no problem with conservative sources, I dont have issue with them, in fact if you dig hard you might find one from me here or there, but full disclosure there are 3 guys I will not take you seriously if you post them because I dont take them seriously as thinkers.

Glen Beck, Alex Jones, and the opinion people at (think Hanity, O'Rilley, ect..) FoxNews

But there are plenty of other Conservative sources out there that I'd read and not pass off on.

Fox "News" is the propaganda wing of the Republican Party...

I don't get it with everyone thinking that there is a difference in the news they report. Think of it this way, you are in another city and the Reds game is on. Because it is in a different city the other teams regular broadcasters are on. Yes, you notice they do seem to have some kind of bias, but you still watch the game. Fact of the matter is, those announcers called the same game with the same results that the Red's broadcast team would have called.

So just because Fox News may come across as Republican biased, they aren't making up or changing the news.

I think this has to be the most ridiculous Election year in my lifetime. The only one I can Think was worse, was the Bush Sr./Dan Quayle versus Dukakis/Bentsen election.

Quayle was an idiot, Bentsen talked out of his ass, and Dukakis had an alcoholic wife that the media slammed EVERY chance they got. Dukakis was extremely inexperienced about foreign affairs, so he got filmed riding on top of a tank. I'm still not really sure if voters were supposed to take him seriously, or if the Democrats were just throwing him to the wolves, because they new Bush would get elected with all the stuff he had done. I'll I can remember was just how much of a pissing match it was. I'm surprised that Dukakis' wife Kitty didn't kill herself with all the pressure that being put on her.

I call it a draw... Draw goes to Obama.

Can't wait till debate 3.

Romney missed his chance on that question because this admin has totally screwed up the Libya question... Something tells me we haven't heard the last of Libya though :)

He technically did say it the next day, but he also denied it for 2 weeks and blamed it on a thousand things. He actually refused to call it terrorism the day after this rose garden. I don't know how this will play out though. We are talking about it, but not necessarily about the right things. This could go either way, depending on what we are talking about (Libya wise) come Monday... It is certainly a huge topic now though.

I want to say this though. FINALLY he took credit for this event and said the buck stopped here. I can't believe it took this long but I have to give at least a little credit for him finally saying that.

When the moderator corrects Romney on the Libya thing you know he lost on that point.

He totally screwed that point up - he should have kept to the Mohammed video narrative, in which case he would have been right. Instead he tried to say the administration never called it an act of terror, and the moderator destroyed him on it.

Yes... I know. He was wrong. However, the administration also stuck to the narrative of the Mohammed video being the primary cause of the riots until they were disproven - as Hillary Clinton is taking the fall for now. That was the point he should have made.
