I just want attention brought to the fact that he's an unscurpulous rabble-rouser.

Tuesday he was on NPR somewhat fair-mindedly discussing the problems that Obama and the democrats face in the mid-term elections, legislative accomplishments and their relative popularity, then Wednesday morning the little bastard was on FOX news, condemning Obama for throwing Sherrod under the bus. The very network that made Brietbart famous. Butthole!<br /><br />If Williams is a liberal, I'm fucking Lenin. I can't abide that man.<br /><br />BTW, mom was born in Broken Arrow OK.

They don't want to ban guns. They want to ban <i>strange and unusual</i> guns.

For example, does anyone really believe mcDonalds sells the best hamburger on earth? <br /><br />You can complain about CNN, MSNBC and the various other networks--but they all have conservative voices. More importantly, they don't attempt to pretend their opinion shows are news programming.<br /><br />Let's all remember that a poll of Fox viewers in 2003 found that 67% of them believed Iraq was responsible for 9/11.Jadegoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09219212637582238275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-81747613931708372932010-07-22T19:09:02.454+02:002010-07-22T19:09:02.454+02:00"OTOH, we would expect the fairness doctrine ..."OTOH, we would expect the fairness doctrine to be reinstated, which require licensed media outlets--such as Fox and those station using the public airwaves-- to at least present opposing views."<br /><br />The opposing view is already on the air, at CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR and other places. Why would forcing Fox to air the same nonsense change anything? The reason Fox came into existence is because people got tired of hearing only the "party message" and knowing it was garbage. You're just mad because Fox is succeeding. If they failed miserably because people didn't want to hear that view, you'd no doubt be trumpeting it from the rooftops, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-88581425353026528732010-07-22T17:20:09.336+02:002010-07-22T17:20:09.336+02:00"Ban Glenn Beck?

Instead, it is the typical response of rightwing fearmongers.<br /><br />Y'know, I've yet to hear any liberal call for Limbaugh or Savage or O'Reilly or Beck or any other rightwing hero to be banned.<br /><br />OTOH, we would expect the fairness doctrine to be reinstated, which require licensed media outlets--such as Fox and those station using the public airwaves-- to at least present opposing views.<br /><br />Of course, FWM is being ludicrous when he claims liberals want to ban free speech. Who is demanding an Islamic center not be built near the WTC ruins? Which group routinely demands certain books be removed from libraries? Which group lobbies to remove federal funding from public safety research programs because they don't like the results? Which group wants to criminalize flag burning?

Someone that just drinks the kool-lade?<br /><br />So what do you propose as a solution to your horrendous problem? Ban Glenn Beck? I mean that is the typical liberal response. If they don't like something or understand something they want to ban it. <br /><br />For someone that shares the same root as "liberty", "liberals" sure are quick to ban anything they don't like. The massive campaigns against free speech on University campuses is a good example.
