Watch video It's something we've seen a thousand times, with the sneering moderator (Michelle Malkin), the firey True Conservative with the wind at their back (Rick Moran) and the weak, mealy mouthed Faux-macrat (Juan Williams) who is preordained to lose every significant point. The script is set and everybody plays their part in laying out their little psycho-drama for the O'Reilly blue-hairs. But this time something different happened. Williams actually Won. As Al Franken so wonderfully described in his book "Lies and Lying Liars" watching Faux Noise is a lot like going to a Harlem Globe-Trotters game. The Conservatives are always the "Home Team" - who always win - while the (usually fake) Democrats high-lighted on Fox are always the Washington Generals who just can't seem to get their act together, fumbling and stumbling while the Trotters dunk, whirl and spin around, through and over them as if they were mired in molasses. Either that or they're weak-kneed surrender monkeys who finally concede whatever fantasitigorimical point the Cons are trying to make. But Not. This. Time. It started out normal enough as Malkin tossed the first slow-pitch at Moran (who she also happened to reveal is the comment moderator on her site as well as the head of the Pajamas Media video crew who were "covering" the event). Malkin: Would you agree that Edwards and Hillary were the "Prom King and Queen" of the Nutroots Convention? Yeah, that's right, she oh-so-uncleverly slipped in "Nutroots", I listened to it multiple times just to be sure. Yuk yuk, that Malkin sure is a wit. A half-wit, but a wit. Moran himself, did a great job of tripping over himself with his response. Well, Hillary would certainly like to think so. Certainly Edwards was the most popular - um, uh, - candidate there in terms of the applause meter is concerned. Ok, Edwards most popular - got it. Except that Moran decided to argue with himself with his next sentence. I thought Denise Kucinich, the other Far-Left Democrat (as compared to who?) who was there, probably was more popular than Hillary - that was my impression anyway. http://www.truth2powerproject.com

I don't want to "Hurt Fox" I'm glad they're there - so we can keep an eye on the right-wing. <>The last thing we need is for them to go underground, I'd rather have their playbook open and visible to all. It saves greatly on speculation. by

Mail carrier who drives the rest of my colleagues nuts with my politics.
Well, duh! Juan Williams works at Fox News; therefore he receives a paycheck from them. Nothing wrong with that. I supposedly could sneer at Keith Olbermann, "well' you're just on the MSNBC payroll!" . (Actually, I will never have the chance to sneer at him, because Olbermann never allows criticism on his show.) But such a sneer would make no sense. Olbermann receives a paycheck from MSNBC; that's the free market at work. Side note: Kudos to Michelle Malkin for keeping the flashlight on hate sites like Daily Kos and Democratic Underground. by

56 year old African American middle class worker who usually votes Democrat )I voted for a Republican exactly ONCE). Moderate in most opinions (I think). Atheist.
We need to watch False Noise To know what the enemy is thinking. But Juan Williams at least offers a different opinion from the usual neoclowns on "False Noise Sunday", and he sometimes wins. Better than these Rethugs going completely unchallenged! That's why it and "False Noise Watch" are the only shows I watch on that network. by
