Kofi please go to hell.
And raising taxes is a Democrat Party speciality.

Some years ago Bo was on the cover of the New York Times Magazine as part of the up and coming conservative voices in America.
Including a female one. I believe Rush called her Maria Snerdley.
We caught the problem with the contractor in time.
What tipped us off is that he wouldn't let us place
our house where we wanted to. Basically, thought
we were stupid and would do whatever he wanted. He
took a few trees down and left the carcasses.
We have been praying that God would be in control
of this and He is. More for which to be thankful.
Because of the dogs, Hubby and I are orphans this
Thanksgiving. Ordering turkey dinner from Albertsons
because I like Patricia Heaton. LOL!
Just meant that MSNBC has NO redeeming voice at all. Not a one.

I've had the same reaction to other 70s TV series that I enjoyed at the time (when I was just a youngster) but now in re-runs I can see that many were just vehicles for liberal propaganda. "All in the Family" is one of the foremost examples.
Me too. I thought there must be something wrong with me. The show, and Jerry Seinfeld himself, bore me!!
I love All In The Family
Another loser. The media never sees reverse racism.
After you explain how you're going to solve the problem of your "peacekeepers" assaulting, raping, and robbing the people they're supposed to be protecting.
Actually I doubt Kofi seen any problem with the peacekeepers' behavior.
Jumping the shark is a metaphor used by television critics since the 1990s. The phrase, popularized by Jon Hein on his web site www.jumptheshark.com, is used to describe the moment when a television show or similar episodic medium is in retrospect judged to have passed its "peak" and shows a noticeable decline in quality. Hein also uses the "jumping the shark" concept to describe other areas of pop culture, such as music and celebrities, for whom a drastic change was the beginning of the end.

I'm surprised it isn't in the FR lexicon. Maybe it is assumed to be too ubiquitous for documentation.
I know that most people I run into who are under age 25 know what jumping the shark is even though they weren't alive when the first shark jump occured.
Thanks
I believe Snerdly is a made up name, but a real person(s).
Sorry... you are right. I was thinking of the "South Park" parody of it where he was on his motorcycle and got eaten by the shark in mid-air.
You are right about that. CNN Main and CNN International are jsut as bad though. THey are making a new stab for independence at CNN Headlines...
