"ANIMALS WILL BE BRED UND SLAUGHT-TERED!"
-
Fox went all out on a news segment I saw yesterday to let people know why the new proposed stimulus package wound probably fail. The, to reinforce the point, they brought out Brit Hume to offer a special commentary on why the economic stimulus package couldn't possibly work. To say the coverage was one-sided would be generous.

Completely unnecessary, but it'll keep a vocal minority from belly-aching for the next four years: Obama takes oath for second time.

He's slowly morphing into a villain from the James Bond series. Or Mr. Potter from It's a Wonderful Life. More on the Oath screw-up: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090120/ap_on_...n_chief_justice

Did we ever agree on locking this thread on Inauguration Day and starting a new one?

Wait...whut?

There's a third group out there manipulating events behind the scenes. Same source as the "head people".

Charging someone with distributing child porn for sending pictures of themselves? I suppose if they caught the girls masturbating, they'd charge them with statutory rape?

Speaking of Skanky McRightwing...

More of Joe Plumber's gifted, nuanced insight into conflict in the Middle East and the role of the media.

Sarah Palin vs. the Anchorage Daily News
-
I'm in favor of her experience meeting with foreign leaders, name recognition abroad, and vast understanding of issues and interest in solving problems. I'm not too crazy about her past judgements on foreign policy, especially with regards to Iraq and Iran.

From last week... Wow...just, wow.

What...the...fuck????

I think the first season was released on HD-DVD, but not bluray.

Mama Grizzly doesn't get the inherent hypocrisy of endorsing a teenage girl to get married, but being against to consenting adults of the same sex being allowed the same thing.

Wasn't one of the reasons the Palestinians didn't immigrate to another country in the first place because nobody would take them? For all the bitching about how Palestinians are treated by the Israelis, and how this is a rallying cry for radical Islam, aren't most Muslims in Iran and pre-war Iraq treated worse by their fellow Muslims?

The US Economy and Current Financial Crisis

The stupidest part about this was that the porn industry admits they are doing just fine, they just want a fat government check because they think they provide a vital service to the nation. -
http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/jziegler...lin/#more-10885 In Summary, this interview was just one big straw man, attacking the premise that it was the media's fault Palin didn't win. For example: Sarah Palin doesn't understand why the media doesn't correct false reports it made about her family that it never actually made. She knew the interview didn't go well right after she did the interview and before it aired, and yet somehow the reason she looked bad was because of editing. Katie Couric is not the center of the universe. Caroline Kennedy hasn't been put under the same scrutiny as Palin, even though (a) Caroline Kennedy isn't running for Vice President of the United States, and (b) there has been a considerable amount of editorial scrutinty made against Caroline Kennedy lobbying for Hillary Clinton's Senate seat. The media doesn't like her because she's a conservative, and she'd have been beloved by the media if she'd been Barack Obama's Running mate (???). People should vote for her if they wanted limited government (an awesomely popular idea here in the year 2009) and let her record speak for itself.

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2009/...ederal-bailout/ I know you're probably thinking "yeah, right," but imagine how intense the lobbying for this could get. -
The US Economy and Current Financial Crisis
SuperJerk replied to Cheech Tremendous's topic in Current Events
Rest of the article here See? That's the fine print as to why the number is so high. They're not just counting actual $$$, but every $$$ could possibly spend if there is a cascade of worst case scenarios. In other words, they are including the price of a hypothetical situation and saying that's what its costing us, when its not. -
My problem with states right advocacy is that every indication is that most state legislatures are even more corrupt and incompetent than the federal government. The fact that conservatives interpret the 10th Amendment to mean that the states have near-dictatorial powers makes me wonder how civil libertarians like Goldwater would ever want to side with them on that issue.
