http://thedanreport.blogspot.com/ Be the first visitor! Tentatively named the Dan report but I don't like it as it is obviously very self-indulgent. First article is entitled "CNN report on Gitmo confirms ex-CIA informant's impression of inmates?" This blog won't be just a rehashing of other info but what I think is somewhat of an Independent view on current topics. Also if you've always wondered what the Kipper looks like here's your chance to put either your love or hate to a face. Warning, the weird effect I created on the image gives me a god-like supa-pimp quality... you'll see. I'd love to hear some thoughts EDIT: Also, not on purpose the article relates somewhat to the London bombings

Would be perfect if the grey around their heads was transparent, of course I don't know how to do that.

If you want to poke fun at him because of his Texas Drawl that's funny. If you want to perpetuate a lie about past cocaine use that's NOT funny. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_W._Bus...use_controversy

I'd say around 50 I just watched the video of Scott being announced an all-star on the scoreboard. Very nice to see, it was also obvious that Scotty was very excited about it. Everyone who voted like a fiend outta be patting themself on the back tonight. Way to go gang!

Okay so O'Donnell says Cooper's source is Rove. And Cooper says his source allowed him to release his name in court so he wouldn't have to spend time in prison like Miller. When are we going to find out already? When does he testify?

QUOTE(Yoda @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 07:53 AM) Which IMO Konerko should be representing. He got robbed off of the HR Derby back in 02 by Jason Giambi. :puke Hey I never thought of that, in a special ceremony Konerko should be awarded the '02 Derby champ because of Giambi's admitted steroid use!

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 11:08 PM) Dont confuse me with other posters. I never said you were anti-American and I dont plan to start now. There is a time for diplomacy and a time to go kick someones ass. The period for diplomacy ended when those 2 buildings fell down. BTW. I never called you a sniveling moron either. I was talking about world leaders like Chirac and Schroder. Please read my posts a little more closely. Actually Nuke I don't know why I wrote "before you" about calling me an anti-American because you've never done that. Should have said others don't go calling me anti-American. But I did think you meant to include Martin my country's leader of who I do have some faith in, I was mostly joking though, didn't think you were calling me a moron.

QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 10:55 PM) Nice tuck-n-run. That is a huge step from your earlier remarks. Watch it first, you may be suprised. Then again, you may not. Edit: OK, I am too tired to fix this, not sure what I did, or didn't so, anyway. Argue all you want, I am going to bed. Go Sox! Sarcasm, I have very little faith that this will be good reporting.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 11:04 PM) I don't know what news you're seeing that in. All I ever see on the news is "Natalee Holloway: Day 73982374823 Update...One of the prosecutors takes a dump! Breaking news!" and "2 Missing kids in Idaho!" Yah I've noticed that. No Iraq news just kids missing, sharks are apparently back from Mars and O'Connor.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 10:36 PM) And the rest of the world can kiss my ass RIGHT DOWNTOWN AND PRINT IT!!! ( Blatant swipe of the Lee Elia Rant ). Its certainly possible and it's most unfortunate because this Administration has done more to advance the cause of freedom and democracy than any of these other sniveling morons who call themselves world leaders and were the most critical of it. I don't give credit to the administration for this, I give it to the troops. The administration could have taken 9/11 and used it to be spokesman, and to rally the entire world to their cause of freedom and democracy. Instead they completely blew it, and that's on them. They have failed at diplomacy if they were ever really interested in it in the first place. It's the new millenium, new beginnings, but the United States has started off on the wrong foot, they've lost all respect from the sniveling morons like me and they will pay the price before it can be regained. And before you go saying I'm anti-American don't waste your time because I know how I feel about America, and it's not that of antipathy.

QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 10:50 PM) I understand that, and agree with that. But then he should be happy that this group is going to report happy stories for a change, instead of ones designed only with ratings in mind. Well I'll wait to see their report when they get back before I get all excited.

lol Soxy link http://news.webindia123.com/news/showdetai...50622&cat=World ACLU looks like they're in the wrong on this one

QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 10:38 PM) So answer me this. Is the successful building of a school or water plant news? Yes, or no. Considering where the country was, it SHOULD be news. However, the fact that it is GOOD news means it will not make most broadcasts. The 'why' it won't mkae the broadcast is someone in the newsroom, decided what they think is, and is not, news. Which, according to you, they SHOULD NOT DO. Sure it's news, but when 2 or 3 American soldiers are killed or 30 or 40 Iraqis are killed which story is going to start off a newscast, which story is more important to Americans or Iraqis?

QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 10:31 PM) And I suppose only body counts are news, eh? Or car bombings? How about building schools, or water purification plants? Shouldn't those make news? I agree 1000000000000000000%. I don't think they should report news for ratings. News for profit is ridiculous. I don't think that the media covers the deaths because they are pinkos, but because it makes the cash register go Ching.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 10:28 PM) It'd be a lot more fair and balanced than hearing nothing but the daily body count from the mainstream media. Also, there you go again calling conservatives stupid. Just because they don't hold the same opinion as you do does not make them any less intelligent. You can veil it any way you like to, you can deny it ill you run out of breath but the fact is that the left thinks conservatives are all a bunch of idiots. People that call the media pinkos are being stupid.

QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 10:27 PM) They don't have to be fair and balanced, dipweed. By reporting good news, they will already be balancing out what you normally get from there. News people are supposed to report the news, not what they think should be the news.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 10:17 PM) Like the assholes in Britain who asked how 59 million some odd people could be so stupid when Bush won? :banghead It's quite simple Nuke, that's how the entire World generally feels. How is it even possible to imagine the horrible human rights abusers in CHina get polled as being a better influence in the World than America? It's completely out of whack and you have George and his backers to blame. But of course this is just because the world's media is out to get them. :rolly

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,161463,00.html I'm sure their report will be fair and balanced as always. I don't know what media they're listening to. I love that intelligent people are out there to tell us the truth The foxnews article actually outlines very well what's going good in Iraq. We don't need a bunch of agenda minded people telling us that. Are people on the left going to believe them? Of course not.

Yah they should go walk around the streets of Tikrit, Baghdad and Fallujah (if it's even there anymore), see how many of them get kidnapped. And please quit it with these claims that the media is leftist of all things, that is unbelievably stupid. If the American media is leftist than every other nation's media is pure communist garbage.

Aren't there a ton of US factories in China?

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 01:53 AM) The new rules are atrocious. The all-star break as a whole is a farce in my opinion. Is it North America vs World in the Homerun Derby?

Who is this O'Donnell guy anyway? Is he a democrat or what?
