No cable and you don't watch T.V. anyway,yet you complained vociferously about someone's posting live threads and belittling them for doing so,when FR and those threads are your ONLY way to know what's on T.V./cable? Just how confused can you get? LOL
I'm not sure what your problem is here. If I get my oil changed, eat breakfast at a Holiday Inn Express, buy tires, board an airplane, I'm subjected to TV. More often than not CNN. So what's so hard to understand about comparisons to what I see there?
As to who makes the calls on FR, I suggest you re-read my post. I'm afraid you are the one who is confused, not I.
As to telling another poster that they add little in the way of information, well with all your words the last several days I have yet to see more than 15 seconds (I was being overly generous before) worth of substance on the various posts about Bush's speech.
You also have yet to explain why I should not complain about that lack of information. One could reference Truman's comments about heat and a kitchen, but I prefer to avoid quotes from Democrats, expecially those who had somewhat corrupt administrations.
It's hard to join in the cheering when there is so little "play by play". Listen to a baseball announcer on the radio and let that be your guide to posting live events. If no one out there wants to be like that announcer, then don't complain to me when I remark that there is little of value in the posts.
Of course, if one wants to go through life adding nothing but the grunts and groans with no "picture", then who am I to stop them? And who are you to stop me?
