I am guessing if they are willing to say "Fair and balanced!" and "We report, you decide!" with a straight face, then they could get used to saying "homicide bombers".

I've basically quit watching cable news after being a junky for many years. Maybe I will resume in the election year. I've never been a huge fan of Fox just because there is too much said there that I agree with (or did).
I would much rather watch Chris Matthews or someone else whose thoughts and guests are much more challenging and opposed to my thought process. ATM, I just read the news paper and watch a few of the Sunday morning shows, now that church is at 1:00 pm.

I'm curious though Tex, do you ever have moments here where you say "hmmm, thats a good point, hadn't thought of that." That is the reason I like "liberal" media better, why I so much enjoyed my ultra-liberal law school. Not because either of those things made me a liberal, but because they made me think about things that hadn't occurred to me. The inevitable result, for me, has been that my views have been moderated (though I am still a conservative).
Ever have moments like that here?
