Faux News - Can it get any stranger

Pravda Fox Business News had one of the nation’s leading experts on FISA on last night to discuss the pending congressional action. News Hounds has the details:

Today (October 17, 2007), Fox brought on country music singer Charlie Daniels as an expert on FISA and eavesdropping.

Cavuto introduced Daniels over a very carefully worded chyron: "House Bill Would Restrict Government Terror Surveillance," as he explained that the House is, "set to vote on a bill that would make it tougher for the government to eavesdrop on potential terrorists. The proposal could impact telecommunications companies in a big way. [Cavuto's ridiculous attempt to make this sound like business news.] The president already threatening a veto. My next guest says yeah, you'd better veto it; that Democrats and civil libertarians are making it more dangerous for the rest of us."

Daniels said he travels all around the country and people, "don't feel like they're very represented." "I mean, these guys, they sit down there and you know, draw up things against talk show hosts?! Is that all they got to do?"

Cavuto wondered whether he was,"saying they're risking our security?"

Daniels said. "I'm absolutely saying..."

Cavuto interrupted: "They're saying they're trying to protect the Charlie Daniels of the world from being snooped on."

Daniels: "Well, I understand and it's a shame we have to go that far to take care of business," but, "we either gotta protect the country or we're not going to have a country to protect and if it means eavesdroppin', we have to eavesdrop. If it means, you know, lookin' at people's email, we have to look at people's email."

Can it get any more bizarre at Faux News then this?
