When you turn the lights on, the cockroaches and vermin try to hide. That could explain why democrats normally boycot Fox News. They don't want to be exposed for what they are and don't want to be examined too closely. It's only been the last few years that democrats have been willing to be on the network. Chris Wallace interviewed Bill Clinton and got him mad because the interviewer dared bring up things Clinton didn't want to talk about.

The most popular programs are hosted by conservatives and those with conservative leanings. Bill O'Reilly has interviewed Phil Donahue and Michael Moore and has held his own against them. Al Sharpton enjoys being on his program and even Sean Hannity's program because he is sure of himself. He also doesn't mind disagreeing with them. But you'll probably never see President Obama on the "O'Reilly Factor" or on "Hannity." He might be humiliated and his fragile ego couldn't withstand the abuse.

Democrats are basically cowards. If they can't get their way, they bitch and moan until they do. Fox News won't cater to them. They don't like that. If they can be on with at least one other democrat they may appear. They feel uncomfortable when people don't agree with them and can explain why they don't agree with them. Do you really think Ted Kennedy would want to appear on "Glenn Beck" and explain why it was fine with him that over 3 million people were slaughtered in Southeast Asia after we left the region?

One program that I enjoy watching that is a lighter side of the news is "Red Eye." It comes on at 3:00 AM Monday through Friday and midnight on Saturday and Sunday. It is so wild at time that democrats who love to control things would be frustrated. They might provoke the host and some of his guests to go on the attack. The democrats who choose to apper on the show are pretty sure of themselves.

Democrats love to control as much as they can. They can't control Fox News. They can feel at home on "Larry King Tonight" because he caters to liberals. But he has to go up against "The O'Reilly Factor" which has a bigger audience. You'll see Obama on Larry King long before he appears on "The O'Reilly Factor" even though three times more people would see him on Fox. It's just that more people might see him look like an idiot on Fox.

Conservatives are put down by democrats so often that Fox has become their TV home. With most Americans more conservative than liberal, Fox News has become the most-watched cable news network in America. With democrats acting so un-American to so many Americans, the less exposure they have the better. That's why they would rather be seen on CNN or MSNBC by half a million people at the most than chance making a blunder on Fox News where ten times more people may see it.

As I write so often, just because you don't like the facts doesn't mean the facts are wrong. Also, the democrat party is a big tent party. The problem is there are nothing but clowns inside. Fox News best demonstrates these facts and democrats hate it.
