    Statement by NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue regarding the Super Bowl halftime show: "We were extremely disappointed by the MTV-produced halftime show. It was totally inconsistent with assurances our office was given about the content of the show. "The show was offensive, inappropriate and embarrassing to us and our fans. We will change our policy, our people and our processes for managing the halftime entertainment in the future in order to deal far more effectively with the quality of this aspect of the Super Bowl."

  • Only ONE Major Party Censures It's Members For Unwise Race Comments

    12/20/2002 9:37:03 AM PST · by GrinFranklin · 10 replies · 199+ views
    Democrats don't censure their members for unwise race comments. They have the leader 4th in succession to the Presidency as a former KKK member who still uses the n word. And when the Democrats were in a lather about blaming a visitor from Texas for the confederate flag in SC, they overlooked the current Democratic Senator who STARTED flying it when he was governor in SC. And Democrats just shrugged when Democratic Black "leader" Jesse Jackson used the "Hymietown" word...even letting him come out and criticize Lott. And now we find that Kerry's "sense of humor" can be at the...

    I noticed that the TV said "channel not available" when I used the remote to go to Fox News Channel in my hotel room tonight. Maintenance people came and went through the add/remove channels process and saw that "some liberal must have turned off access."

  • MSNBC will never report that web site poll

    09/09/2001 7:23:14 PM PDT · by GrinFranklin · 5 replies · 126+ views
    All anybody has to do is close their browser after voting, erase cookies, then open a browser again to vote again. Almost like Cook County in Chicago..or Broward County. There are a handful of DUmb DUmbs spending their evening sore losing, that's all. MSNBC would just advertise how inept their web techs are if they ever mentioned this one. Maybe they could tell their tech about that obscure little thing called "ip addresses" to keep track of "votes"...lol

    Slavery Strategy: Inside The Reparations Suit A-list of lawyers, academics tackles challenges in identifying plaintiffs, defendants, damages Paul Braverman - The American Lawyer - July 6, 2001 Earthquake prediction is a famously inexact science, but it's easy to see this one coming. By year-end, an all-star team of lawyers calling themselves the "Reparations Coordinating Committee" plans to file a suit seeking reparations for slavery. The legal merits of the case are unknown, but the tremors will no doubt be felt far and wide. The group faces problems that seem insurmountable. Slavery ended in 1865. Who are the plaintiffs? The defendants? ...

    Sterling, Illinois Memorial Day Ceremony | May 27, 2001
    I watched a narrated folding of the United States flag today. The program for the event says: "The Flag Folding Ceremony is from the US Air Force Academy." Imagine as you read the narration below two of our men in uniform folding it as it is read, then saluting to the audience. Here is what was printed in the program today: The Flag Folding Ceremony represents the same religious principles on which Our Country was originally founded. The portion of the flag denoting honor is the canton of blue containing the stars representing the states our veterans served in uniform. ...
