Ok, even most conservatives will agree that Fox News is not "fair and balanced", but I will admit there are shows on the network I enjoy watching. This week The O'Reilly Factor" has been very good, with top-notch Democratic guests answering for the most part, fair, but tough questions from the self-exalted one. I have mentioned on the weblog before that I believe O'Reilly catches way too much grief from Democrats, as I think the guy is not the devil he's portrayed as.

Who Dems should be firing away at is the insane show, Hannity and Colmes. Just this week, the show has started with guests like Newt Gingrich and Zell Miller. (Crazy Conservative Crackers from Georgia) Unlike the show it was supposedly patterned after, CNN's Crossfire, Hannity and Colmes is completely slanted to the right, with Sean Hannity never admitting any culpability or blame by conservatives. Colmes, as I've discussed before is the worst example for being a Democratic advocate Fox could have found, which I'm sure is why he still has this gig.

The partianship of the Sean Hannity's of the world is as good as reason as any why we sit in a divided nation. There was a day where the Democratic Party was more Liberal than the Republican Party was Conservative (1970's), but since the Republican revolution, all the leaders of the Republican party have become strident in their positions. (DeLay, Frist, Bush, Scalia) Since Bill Clinton helped push the Democratic party more to the Center, there is no way you can point to Dems as being as Liberal.

What Republican issue has been passed that was even close to being moderate, like the Welfare Reform and NAFTA bills Clinton pushed? This type of partianship is why Democrats across the board have so much animus against Conservatives, as there has been no working together, despite being led by a man who "won" a disputed election. Ok, just needed to get a few things off my chest.
