They were blocked on our servers at work in Korea. I actually managed to make a couple of suicide runs there from my home PC.
I don't go in there with anything less than the best Hazmat suit available on the market.
And even then I go through a full Decon when I'm done.
"All of this partisanship aside, what in the Hell kind of stupid idiots would consent to an interview with DBM hacks like Vanity Fair writers/reporters,whatever they call themselves?"
That's essentially what I posted on a VF thread yesterday. Perle and Frum have been around the block I couldn't believe how they could be so stupid to agree to an interview w VF and then believe they'd hold it until after the election.
How's Negron doing? I've been seeing some hopeful signs that he's moving ahead and could very well win (I hope!)
It bothers me that we allow Democrats to present themselves as something they are not. Republicans do not do a very good job of defining the issues along party lines. I think it's because we avoid party labels and such, but we need to label them accurately if we want to inform independent voters better.
shepard smith is on board with saying that protecting marriage from sexual devians will hurt HETERosexual couples. (pure HRC talking point put to to normalize homsoexuality)
I don't see how he gets put up as a rising star unless FNC is going after the F*g h*g viewer.
Ref Brit's comments on not being around much longer, I predicted a long time ago that the battle in the Murdoch Family and the leadership being taken away from the more conservative member to a more Liberal Member would seal their fate. I do not watch any Fox anymore except Special times,shows. I used to have it on all day long,but they have gone over the edge into darkness, and it started before Katrina made them look so bad especially Shep (crybaby sissy) Smith. The highlight for FNC was the Gulf War , and they went down hill from there. To paraphrase an old line it is not who votes that counts,but who counts the votes. Well in the News Business it is not the Reporters and Broadcasters that count, it is who pays their Salaries, and gives the orders to the Employees. It is obvious that Fox may have been fair and balanced at one point,but 70-30 is not balanced in my mind.
I cannot believe how absolutely brilliant Michael Steele is. He is just delightful. Don't miss him on Fox.
Oh cripes. It seems he's been doing that more since his interview w Bubba. It doesn't come on here for about 15 more mins, but, I will watch it.
I couldn't believe Fox played that Obama clip about voting for me because of what I look like, and Steele didn't rip into that.
One would think after 14 years that the media and pundits would understand what happened in 1994. They don't, which tells me they remain clueless. Just amazing.
Very true. And their main goal is POWER, however and whatever it takes to get there.
Ah geez. I see the Breck Girl is at it again.
He was good, but I wanted him to rip Obama for that clip they played.
Good points. They're either the same as 'sources say' or, they know the base is fired up so they're playing along w the MSM and will give the Dims a real November surprise!
I do not think the media is clueless.
The know they have the ability to influence hence their heavy duty spin.
The MSM is hand in glove with the left. If you force the populace to be educated they will inevitably support the left. This is why they do selective reporting. This is why they shout down the conservatives who are stupid enough to be sheep.
They are not clueless. They just are not the only information source. THAT is what they know.
Thanks for the post. We seem to have gotten away from what's being said on the Sunday shows a bit.
Excellent rundown on Hotline guy and pal on C-Span. Your reports are so thorough I would never be tempted to turn on TV even if there was one up here.
