But beyond that, apparently having a Lib on as an opposing view doesn't make it "fair and balanced", so what would.........no conservative, two libs, Paul Begala, a monkey that rides a German Shepard while playing a mini triangle? Just curious.

I'm still reading but had to jump on this. Hannity mops the stage with Colmbs. It's pathetic. This show, itself, is not a "fair and balanced" debate between two opposing but sharp and intelligent viewpoints. Nope. It's a bullfight. Hannity plays the Matador, and Colmbs and the guests are bulls. With the Fox News logo in the corner. Anybody understand the impact this has on the perceptions of Americans whose only information sources are AM talk show radio and Fox? It's deliberate, effective brainwashing. The most you can say about it is that it is effective. Very effective. Heck, even most of you guys think Fox is fair and balanced. Very effective.
Now, it would be a different story if Hannity would invite some sharp, assertive and well-prepared liberal guests, and if his co-host were similarly liveried. Now, many of you are going to think "Yeah but, there's no such thing as a sharp, well-prepared liberal spokesman." Again, Fox has been very effective at creating the illusion that the only sensible position is Dubya's. Trust me. There are some folks out there that Hannity would NOT enjoy interviewing on camera.
