"The Crime Bible." Heh.

Bob, you ignorant slut. Your capacity to be wrong never ceases to amaze me. Don't correct me unless you're absolutely sure you've got your facts right. How can someone with that much useless TV trivia trapped in their head not realize (or be able to look up) that the show premiered on September 22, 1999 and Bush took office on January 20, 2001? Since when are TV seasons 2 years long? Also, Czech's premise was that the show was created so it would show what it would be like to have a Democrat as president. There already was a Democrat as president at the time, and had been for over 6 years. Thus, his premise is in error. End of story.

Its not that I don't tend to blindly believe everything everyone on the internet says, but I'd like a source on this. Michael J. Fox may have been born in Canada, but he is also an American citizen. He is entitled to participate in the American electoral process and has his right to speak guaranteed by the First Amendment.

Not a good example. The Japanese already had the Taisho Democracy just prior to the war.

Um, no. Your point?

The West Wing debuted while Clinton was president, smart ass.

According to my listings, the show won't be on this Monday. Has it been moved? Is it on hiatus? Is it cancelled?

To answer my own question... Joe Biden's Iraq Plan

snuffbox seems to be having almost the exact same argument with McHaggis that I had with him last week in the Korea thread. Just throwing this out there again... Joe Biden's Iraq Plan

"Why the hell would anyone vote for George Allen?" part 2 From a New Republic piece that was published 4/27/06, before the "macaca" indicident. There is substantial evidence that Allen is both a racist and a Confederate sympathizer. http://www.tnr.com/doc.mhtml?i=20060508&am...a050806&c=1

!!!!!!!!! ?????? "Australia's most prominent Islamic cleric declared Friday that he would not resign for suggesting that women who don't wear head scarves invite rape, saying he would only leave his post "after we clean the world of the White House first." The terms "most prominent" and "leader" are not synonyms. Saying someone is "Australia's most prominent Islamic cleric" isn't the same thing as saying they're the "leader of a religion in an entire country." That'd be like saying James Dobson is the leader of Christianity in America.

No foriegn policy category?

Political assasination is an idea that runs contrary to what the vast majority of Americans believe in, and to a movie about it about the sitting president is disturbing. This sounds like it might've been a pretty good movie if they'd made it about a fictional person. They're not advocating that assasinating Bush is a good idea, but simply saying "here's what would happen if he was," but I don't find a filmmaker's ideas on what that would be like to be a particularly useful insight into the real world.

The "women had it coming" mentality isn't exclusive to Muslims.

Limbaugh running his mouth about something he knows nothing about? Shocking.

The reason people obsess over the WMDs is because that was the reason that all the other reasons except humanitarian justifications were based on. We were afraid Saddam would give WMDs to terrorists, and he was defying the UN on WMD inspections. And seriously..."Defiance of the UN" as its own reason? Yeah, I'm sure the Bush Administration was really torn up about THAT one.

I don't see what's so hard to believe about a man stabbing two people to death. I'm sure you have some excellent explanations for why his DNA was all over the crime scene.

If the Bobster wants us to take his word for something, he needs to give reasons instead of just making assertions. I'm getting terribly annoyed by how very few around here ever bothers to explain themselves anymore. We used to have real discussions. Nowadays people can't be bothered to say more than a few words, but still expect the rest of the world to treat their opinions as valid.

And your problem is that you're a damn, dirty ape. Now get your stinking paws off of me.

So you admit you're really just reciting what other people told you about the trial years later instead of going by your own recollections of how it was presented on live TV at the the time? Well, that sure makes you an excellent source of unbiased commentary. This entire site is an electronic record of you talking out of your ass about things there's no way you could know about from first-hand accounts. Actually, that goes for most of the people who post in this folder.

What word was that?

Thank goodness you're here to tell us these things.
