I believe they have no interest in being friends with us. Witness the poll provided by our very own S_Baker.

"If you had us up there to balance CNN, you‘d give people a choice, they‘d hear other points of view. Not conservative points of view â ” this is not a conservative network."

HAHAHA.

If we wanted to balance out CNN we would get something like Al Jazerra or a real non pax americana news channel, not another biased american network like FOX.

Yeah, cause between Ollie North (We don‘ need no stinkin Boland Amendment), and Bill O‘Reilly (It was a Polk Award, no a Peabody Award), faux news is a real bastion of integrity. Besides, aren‘t you tired of getting told what to think by an Australian?

Hey Sherwood,
With the site going down I never did get to see those two PMs you sent me could you please resend?
Thanks.

I wish we could get Fox News. But the CRTC says no, no we don‘t want people thinking america is good. Perhaps if Harper wins the election we could finally see Geraldo drawing sandmaps.
