[history]
Howard Kurtz, writing in the Washington Post notes the sudden appearance of multiple stories critical of various conservative symbols and causes. Liberals love it, and conservatives claim conspiracy. Whatever. A Wall Street Journal columnist notes that it represents ''an outsized, mad hostility that even the assault on Clinton, which was poisonous, does not match,'' she said. ''A bottom level of partisan craziness and zealousness has infected the media.''
The Los Angeles Times dropped an October surprise on Arnold Schwarzenegger yesterday, running detailed interviews with six women who say the actor groped them during the last 30 years.
The New York Daily News and National Enquirer threw Rush Limbaugh for a loss with reports that he is under investigation for buying illegal painkillers, hours after Limbaugh quit as a football commentator because of racially charged comments.
And major news organizations pounded the Bush administration for a fifth day for outing a CIA operative to columnist Robert Novak.

I remember that Star Trek episode. Classic. She has these suction cups on her fingers, and she uses them to suck all of the all salt out of the victim's bodies, leaving the proverbial dead ensign with circles all on his face.
Another popular press pundit.

"the word "Statist"."Isn't that short for statistic? All ya needs is a little "ic" on the end, there, which is short for "sic!"
People are so danged "dumbed down," they won't even know that's a "Long A" in that there wurd!!!
See whut I means? But hay... It's bedder than anathang I've comed up with!!! (/sluvenly languige)
I've always liked "Commonist!" Trouble is, it isn't distinctive enough! So, since CA is being over-run with illegals, I thought of "Commonistas," but that has racial over-tones even though Commonista radicals, even from the US are fighting for a foothold all over Latin America!!! (I know of one with my last name that occasionally writes for the Sacramento Bee that is doin it down in Lake Titicaca in Bolivia right now)

This is the work of Hitlery and Bubba, the rapist's, work and whoever is behind them.. She is running for President and they are going to do anything to get her there.
They just make me sick. I wonder what is going to happen when "what goes around comes around" happens.
To: Millie
"a vast left wing conspiracy?"
You got that right and the trail leads right to Hitlery and Bubba, the rapist.
To: schu
If this happens, IMHO, there is also a chance that the Democratic Party will fracture and split, too many internal contradictions. The gaggle of groups that make up the Dems will remain Dems as long as they win, if they lose, the radicals will move on to something new. Do you think the Democrates/socialist wouldn't go down the road their European brothern have traveled? You know, riots, "gatherings", Krystal Nach(sp?)- type things, bare knuckles union/"workers" action, etc.?
Just wondering. After all, like I said, these are people with no real future and that makes them very,very dangerous.

"Stop watching TV-waste of time. Listen to Michael Savage."There you go. I normally never listen to the news anyhow. I get my news right here and right wing radio. I know without a doubt, it is alot closer to the truth than TV news. The communists are really sore losers. Wonder what they will do when Bush wins again, next year?
If they even let him run next year.
This is suppose to be a free country and they silence Rush. Communism is here folks.

Exactly!
And .. the media are in cardiac arrest because their smear against Arnold didn't work. Arnold's numbers have only gone up 2% since the attack began.
And .. in case nobody noticed, FOX is running a story about a reporter who is outraged that the LAT would put out a hit team on Arnold and not on Davis (who assaulted several women who worked for him - both physically and mentally).

Excuse me .. but if "he isn't the best guy" - why on earth are they attacking him just for living. The dems know he's the best guy and that's why they hate him so much.

they hate him because he is our guy... and we love him because he is "just george"... like his parents, he has the ability to gracefully take praise, and criticism... and give it right back!
They taught him to rely on his home-taught principles, and he rests there calmly!

Yes, Boortz is very crude & needlessly rude on occassion. He has no patience. But he has the info & some fresh ideas we all seek.

To: GatekeeperBookman
Rude and impatient, again no quarrel. I offered the alternative of irreverent for Boortz instead of crude. Stern is crude in my opinion(not to say I'm not also a fan of his, though he has slipped in entertainment value) but not Boortz. I guess we just have a different standard for when crude starts, no big deal. ;-)

He just uses sexual & potty humor with Belinda(?) & other females when it is not needed. He seems to think it clever or cute. No big deal, except when one considers what that his behavior instructs others. I guess we do indeed have a different standard-but no offense intended.

None taken. Your standards(from this brief exchange) sound very traditional Southern, while I appreciate them, they are not native to this Jersey guy who grew-up around Heavy Metal and Punk in NYC.
