Was a big fan of the show until that debacle by Shepard Smith.
Never had a chance to hear the other guy speak.
Judge – you may have lost me.

Glen Beck is ok, but I'm no fan of shep smith. It's not so much because of what he said on this program — I agree, "we don't torture", I just don't consider him an advocate of freedom, or liberty, on any consistant basis. Bring back Schiff!!

Even this "tip of the iceberg" is outrageous. When the fish stinks, it stinks for the head on down. This is then the time for armed insurrection of Americans against government tyranny?

It was Carl Cameron, not Shep Smith, who asked Ron Paul the "do you have any?" electability question during the South Caroline debate on Fox. Smith has a record of going against the grain at Fox, both with his criticisms of the Bush administration's handling of Hurricaine Katrina as well as his interview with 'Joe the Plummer' about Joe's remark "a vote for Obama is a vote for the death of Israel." I'm assuming there are other examples of Smith being a bit different from the rest of the Fox zoo. Maybe someone else can point them out here cuz I don't particularly feel like defending the guy. Just trying to keep the record straight regarding the electablity crack during the SC debate. It was Carl Cameron, not Smith.

Doesn't make a difference who is in the top seat or where they were born, government is nothing more than a crime syndicate that has most people thinking they are some sort of legitimate entity. They aren't. They are authoritarian sociopaths at best.

Ditto… stick with Ron Paul and the real defenders of the constitution…. and please stop covering this topic. It's something the military needs to work out.

You are all falling for the BHO manipulation and distraction of the media. Just the way they mock and marginalize Christians or people of traditional values by holding them up to their own moral high ground? They aren't holding themselves up to those standards… they corrupt and prostitute our country away at every turn, and you want to go after the Bush Administration.

The mighty FEDS and the Oligarchy have a much worse agenda coming. Why are you arguing about what should have been argued last administration, and you do it in public for the world to see our dirty laundry. You are smart men, can you not see what they are doing to you? How they manipulate the news? How they make this problem bigger than the REAL ISSUES. They are about to take over our country from within. They have used ILLEGAL VOTING FRAUD, ILLEGAL COERCIAN OF CAUCUSes, PAY TO PLAY corruption, UNHOLY ALLIANCES between banks and representatives. You barely cover the DHS issues and forget Waco and Ruby Ridge?
Stop falling for it…. much worse is coming down the pike and you need to take this conversation off the news and focus and dig and research into how we can bring real DEFENDERS of the Constitution in to office…..at all levels.

D' Oh! As was pointed out to me…. it was Carl Cameron who gleefully took it upon himself to belittle an intelligent, sincere and honest man, for nothing other than being intelligent, sincere, and honest, so afar as I can tell….

A sincere apology to Mr. Smith and the Judge. I don't watch Fox (other than if I flip past and see the dear Judge – other than that it's a you tube/freedomwatch affair only) , and am guilty of going by memory – an unreliable strategy in this case. I know who he is, and actually enjoyed his reporting…. I'm not sure how I made the mental mix-up to assign the inappropriate comments to him. Regardless, it was careless, and a person should be more careful before impugning another person as a "damned pissant" or more importantly, questioning their understanding of or interest in liberty.

I suppose I can take the rhetoric down a notch – or at least aim it somewhere it can have positive effect…. just don't get Hannity, O'Reilly or Cameron on next week (to spite me)….. or ever…. and I'll contain the back-seat producing to curse-laden mutterings under my breath that I alone can hear….

withOUT using the phrase "keeping us safe from terror" or something synonymous

To those who are finding 'new found respect for Shepherd Smith', I urge you to think carefully here….. Consider his adversarial manner against Ron Paul in the Republican primaries….

"Congressman Paul….. a question on the subject of electability…. Do you have any sir?"

If I had been there, he'd still be eating through a straw…. damned pissant.

I've loved freedom watch, but I'm not buying the "Glenn Beck and Shepherd Smith are champions of the freedom movement" crapola. Is it a requirement that the Judge parade the Fox riff-raff through his show to give them street cred? IS that they only way you can get this thing done, Judge? If so, drop the pretense and do it on your own. Screw Fox News. When I see O'Reilly and Hannity offered up as being on the vanguard of the freedom movement….. I'm not only done with Freedom Watch…. I'm done with the Judge too, because he will have revealed himself as being wholly devoid of principle. You might like the two clods, and may even want to have them on the show – but to suggest that they can even define freedom (with using the phrase "keeping us safe from terror" or something synonymous) is to lessen its value for those who can (at least) define it.

I love you Judge….. please….. no more Shep Smith….. less Glenn "the Paulites are out to get me" Beck….. and tell Roger Ailes (or whoever) to get bent when they suggest the Hannity/O'Reilly idea….. you can find another venue easier than you can regain credibility. Those turds don't belong on the same stage with you….. please don't make them the reason I can't keep this Wednesday afternoon date for a long time.
