The Comical partnered with Ken Lay to achieve the slim margin of victory on the stadium referendum.

Then the Houston Chronicle expressed “shock” when the Enron debacle was exposed under their very noses.

“Where were these whiny bass turds when Camp Obama was crucifying Trig Palin for have Down’s and Bristol Palin for being pregnant?”

The Houston Chronicle was silent.

Just another branch office of Pravda.

I wish I had a subscription to the Chronic-Ill so I could cancel it.

Call them up anyway and say "thanks for the reminder as to why I don't subscribe to your rag."

I canceled my subscription over a decade ago over the political bias. I told them so as I canceled. I still got "resubscription" calls. I told them no that their paper had a liberal bias (and that was very apparent in the local coverage even if they were endorsing Bush). One time when I told the caller this, I hung up and he (or she I don't recall) called back and stayed silent (I could hear the phone banks in the background that I had just heard).

"Perhaps the worst mistake McCain made in his campaign for the White House was the choice of the inexperienced and inflammatory Palin as his vice-presidential running mate. Had he selected a moderate, experienced Republican lawmaker such as Texas Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison with a strong appeal to independents, the Chronicle's choice for an endorsement would have been far more difficult."

In other words, McCain made a choice to place a true conservative on his ticket and that pissed the Houston Communist off.

Kay Bailey would make a great choice for VP... on Hillary's ticket!!! But that hag is no conservative.

The Houston Chronicle NEEDS a messiah and they’re hoping this is him. That paper is a totally liberal rag. I don’t understand that. If you look at the map Harris County is red with a little blue in the middle. You’d think they’d play to the masses but they don’t.

They point out “his well thought out positions” but don’t say they’re all lies.

I’ve for the past 30 years or so chosen to support the candidate that the Comical decided not to endorse. The Comical usually picks the most left wingnut canddate that they can find so I usually just choose the opponent in those races to vote for.

If only MeCain would have only picked a RINO, pro-abortionist, pro-Comprehensive Immigration reform Republican, then the Chron would have had a difficult choice.

Ahhh, yes, the low-angle Steven Spielberg shot...

Makes you feel like you must look up at the deity from a position of subserviant peasantry...

The comical isn’t worth much more than what my parrot craps on now days. They do have a good TV Guide though.
