At the risk of giving any more attention to the cast of the FOX news show "red eye" I feel I must make a few comments on a recent show that has unfortunatly leaked its toxic content over our great neighbours to the South in the eyes of Canada when in fact it is probably only a small minority who will fail to see just how inappropriate this television bit was.
I am not a fan of FOX all though I appreciate news and commentary from any perspective when it is delivered with a certain degree of intillect. The unfortunate reality is, that is a rare dish to be served by pretty much any of the journalists at FOX. Homer Simpson is the closest they have come yet in my opinion.
Unfortunatly for the Republican Party this is the best they have along with Rush Limbaugh as media representation. My advice if they want to earn back credibility with the American People and the rest of the world for that matter before the next election is to distance themselves from the talking heads at FOX news who mistake hate mongering for insightful journalism.
The sad irony is on every six oclock news show across Canada the FOX piece was shown right after the story about four of our troops making their way back to their home towns and their waiting families in a precession of black hursts along a main streach of highway that has come to be known as "The Highway of Heros" in recent years.
116 of our Boys have paid the ultimate sacrifice in support of the US military actions in Afghanistan. More significant yet when you consider Canada's population is slightly less than the State of California.
Our thoughts are with the families of these heros.
