oops sorry that shoulda been august 15 73...the date of nixons 2nd watergate speech in which he assured the country AH! Thank you for the correction. And I will agree with you to a point. That was when the press stopped writing news, and started making it. Most people continued to believe after that
I dont know of anyone who called you unpatriotic, but I dont read every blog and answer. The simple fact is that here IS loonies on both sides. But I think you have shown, as others have on the left, that to paint all the left that way is a great disservice. Just as it is wrong to cast all on the right the way that the looney left (qualified - not all the left) wing does - as a bunch of racist bigots, homophobes sexist pigs. When you start to characterize a mo
merle aint springsteen (and vice versa) and hes referring to the summer of 1973, specifically august 17, 1973. Not sure why you picked that date, but you are wrong. We Believed both Carter and Ford in 76, and then again in 80 (with Reagan). And to my knowledge, they did keep most of their promises, and did not
I think we just need to stop paying attention to CBS news, in all its formats. It is clear from the rigged Gas tank tests, to the forged documents, to the clown who had no compassion for his fellow man other than to call them stupid, that they are simply a mouth piece of the Mikey Moore wing of the democrat party. It would behoove the democrats to distance themselves from such arrogance and hate. Just as Kerry should ahve distanced himself from Whoopi and her case of crabs. But I dou
Reply By: Texas WahinePosted: Wednesday, November 24, 2004 Ted Rall is a sack of crap. It is heartening to see when announced liberals condemn such vile depictions. I know Feingold did as soon as Sylvester uttered his idiocy. Thanks Tex, it gives hope to the possibility of sane and rational debate, without the hate fill
What amazes me here is the fact that everybody gets riled up when someone says politicans and staff do not lie to the american public on a repeated basis. Well guess what folks...THEY DO! Of that, I will not argue. However, the debate is on the amount of lies told. I think the public, after Clinton and his finger wagging, assume th
You are doing labeling yourself by stating this person speaks for the left. He doesn't any more than Ann Coulter speaks for the right. A better term wouldbe speaks from the left. Since Feingold was quick to condemn him, I know most of the left does not think his way. But unfortunately, a large number do.
I like how when it is fraud and slander against a conservative, it is "A document problem". But boy how they howled like a stuck pig when the swift Vets dared to state their opinion!
Not to be picky, but England did not GRANT us independance. There was a little thing called the Revolutionary War? Where we Kicked thier butts (Damn Colonialists). Maybe we should revoke their right of statehood. After all, the Romans use to rule them. I'll call my Friend Guido to see if he will take them back. ; )
The funny thing is, Clinton is not LIberal! Oh sure, his wife is a screaming liberal, but he is not (and even she is moving to the center in preperation for 2008). In fact, if you go back 50 years, you can see that there never was a liberal elected. Carter? He ran and governed (not very well) as a Conservative. Johnson? He is what hte left deridingly calls a Dixiecrat. Kennedy? He was more conservatice than any president except Reagan and W. (
Good Article. But the way to stop the slide into anarchy or civil war is to keep the center, and not start adopting the fringe elements, regardless of the pressure. that is why we have majority rule. The right, with the center, will not allow the left to implement their extremes, and the left, with the center, will not allow the right to implement their extremes. But all in all, a good thought provoking article.
Nature abhors a vacuum. That is the reason for Right Wing Talk radio, and the emergence of Fox as the premiere News Channel. The old media left America with nothing to hold on to but the stilted opinions of a bunch of talking heads. As long as Government stays out of the media, I dont see a problem, as the self correcting mechanism will take care of any vacuum left by the old media becoming a mouth piece for the left. For about 20 years. the old media had a
Why is your beliefs any more valid than theirs? So what if a kook wants to guide people of similar faithdown the colorado? It is a free country. And putting the stuff about 20th century problems into a video on Lincoln is just plain stupid, not conspiratorial. (both the Right to life and Pro Abortion crap). This is tenuos and shaky. You imply that if people dont believe as you do, then they should have no voice in anything. Yet where is your outrage when
Please, Kennedy family members must be pained by such irreverence. A spokesman for Ted Kennedy has already condemned it. So you can update that from MUST to ARE.
Sorry, I retract the thing about Karzai and Unocal. Glad you did that. Your article has some truth to it, but not all of it is truth. The oil prices of the 80s was part of the downfall of the USSR, but not to the degree you painted it, and that was just normal market pressure due to the Iran/Iraq war and their cheati
Excuse me, draginal offered nothing up and he pretty much told me I had my head up my ass so he went the profanity route I just elaborated. let him who is without sin cast the first stone... we all better be ducking... The placement of your head is not profanity, just observation. I suppose for the fairer sex, he could have used
TTFN! Have fun!
This was fascinating to read. I like the comments better than my article. Thanks Dr. Guy and drmiller. Oh and you, too, David St. Hubbins for the stubborn approach I understand he was once a member, but got banned. Even if stubborn, he does seem to be polite now. I was not around, or at least reading his comments when he got the
And here, ladies and gentlemen, we see a flawless example of the liberal's propensity to resort to profanity when he/she has nothing else to offer up. Actually, when I saw it from Draginol, I snickered. When I saw it from a brain washed supposed intellectual, it was just the play ground "nah, nah, nah, and so is yours."</P
The CIA is full of it. That may be what they are saying NOW! But that's NOT what they and the REST of the planet was saying then. So, in fact *Dr.Guy* is on target with it being *false* info. For Christ's sake even the British intel was saying the same thing. Thanks DR, but I quit arguing with him. He cannot discern opinio
There is a lot to be said for being self employed. I have tried it. But a regular pay check with benefits is also good. Best of luck to you.
um, 2000 anyone? Sure, Gore took it to the courts to curcumvent the law. The law was followed. You dont like the law, change it. Dont break it.
Reply By: Don BemontPosted: Friday, November 19, 2004 I think that it is just that you are a conservative and therefore sensitive to the attitudes of liberals. I have exactly the opposite experience. For a quick example, another current thread expressing a liberal perspective was met by this: <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="mb-
To summarize, it is a very well documented fact, not opinion, that Rice and other officials lied about Iraq. Repeating bad intel is not lying. You have to make a conscious decision to misstake the truth to lie. You can be wrong in a statement without lying. IN which case you were merely ill-informed. I repeat, she di
The claim that C. Rice is a liar is factually accurate. Please see my blog where I have catalogued the lies the administration told in duping America into war in Iraq. Ms. Rice told 7 lies, not little white lies or mischaracterizations but instances where it is proven she knew one thing and said another. That is your opinion, not factually ac
