QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 13, 2009 -> 02:35 PM) Usually if you're going to rig an election you're smart enough to make it 51-49. Hell, there were 4 candidates here, he could have won it 51-30-10-10 and it would still have looked better and avoided the runoff. or wait to see if might have won legit, then if not find a bunch of ballots. then win. or have the supreme court give you the win. either way, winner winner chicken dinner. does Iran have a supreme court type institution?

well, i guess i can't disagree, this is big news. good job CBS. you are true journalists. i apologize Balta, your news crew is indeed top notch. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/06/12/...in5082589.shtml

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 10:50 PM) Have you been drinking? and yes i have been. so >? the filibuster needs more drunk posts, not less my friend. oh and ABC news is reporting that a celebrity did somethign and Obama has a new sweater.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 10:50 PM) Have you been drinking? good sir i take offense to that back to the news New York Times : "OMG OMG Brittany Spears OMG!!! AL GORE! BARACK OBAMA!"

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 10:49 PM) So, you'd like to explain why more nuclear plants are a good idea? National Geographic: "OMG OMG Al Gore has new shoes! Green shoes! OMG OMG"

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 07:59 PM) The Ayatollah is already appointed until death. CBS News : "OMG OMG Lindsey Lohan!! OMG OMG! " did you guys see that the Bill O'reily show has higher ratings than the CBS nightly news now? wow

QUOTE (KipWellsFan @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 06:50 PM) David Letterman is a comedian. Sometimes a mildly raunchy one. f*** Palin. the guy told a joke about rapign a 14 year old. is this what it's come to?

New York Times : "OMG OMG Sarah Palin wears blue shoes and red shirt! Fashion error!" news of the day

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 10:30 PM) I think the book deal and political appearances that were in initial violation of her contract to begin with justify her termination. And her not acknowledging invitations and not showing up for events she was contracted to be at also justify her termination. But for all the talk about liberals wanting everyone to be the victim, it seems that nobody seems to whine louder about being persecuted than a conservative these days. who gives a f***? like this is important

news media headline after North Korea launches a nuke: "OMG OMG Michelle Obama buys new shoes! They match her shirt!"

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 08:05 AM) No. Well, at least not me. northside is just overreacting

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 09:45 PM) So the logic is: P: Von Burren was an antisemitic holocaust denier P: Iran's President (and maybe a significant portion of their population? I don't know) also denies the holocaust P: Some members of the left support Iran (or at least don't hate the country) C: Therefore, antisemitism/ holocaust denial is left wing? You're a few links short of a chain, there. as there are links missing between Von Burren and Ron Paul bumper stickers or disgruntled vets. which was the controversial wording within a homeland security report which this murder supposedly proved correct and should have led to many apologies form those whom criticized such wording. as within the context of the thread.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 08:45 PM) Theocratic Iran is far-left? people in the US who support them are. Rev Wright and such. see, America is evil (at least it was until Obama got elected), and theocratic Iran hates Ameirca; therefore far left Americans supported theocratic Iran, as they have a common enemy.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 07:29 PM) Well you had a good 1,000 year run maybe if you're English. Irish heritage or something, you've had a decent 75 years.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 06:14 PM) That's the U.S. economy the way it should be. India is a pretty closed economy, they probably wouldn't let kap in if he was going to take a job that an Indain could possibly fill. but of course, they demand free access to the US economy. thats fair though, globalization at it's finest. everyone in the United States works at Walmart, or works for the government, or gets welfare checks, or dies in the street. a successful economy.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 06:00 PM) This already happens in the current environment - as it should. what about fat people? they are like half the population and being obese is as bad if not worse than being a drunk is for your health.

QUOTE (Cubano @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 03:36 PM) They can go and work for Walt-Mart who is adding 22,000 jobs. Ha, ha, ha. Walmart just announced a billion dollar outsourcing deal with India. they actually said that people can get cashier jobs at their stores to replace their IT, accounting, and management positions they lost to the outsourcing.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:19 PM) Your point being... that, what... Bachmann's outrage was not phony and made her look dumb as s*** (well, more than usual)? Bachmann is a psycho, i'm sure she owes millions of people an apology. the demands for apologies didn't seem directed at Michele Bachmann. and if she did apologize, it would probably just offend everyone again as i'm sure she would toss in a few more insults.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:12 PM) Quit putting words in my mouth, I'm not gonna acknowledge responses to things I didn't say. I don't know what you're talking about with this "you guys" stuff either. i'm just saying that the criticism was legit IMO. if i am head of a department, and something like that report comes out , i would expect to take heat and apologize. which she basically did. i mean it's water under the bridge now, i don't see how this murderer means people whom critized her and that report should apologize. again, no one would have said anythign if it said 'neo-nazi' threat. we even both agree it was dumb to have in there.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:09 PM) That's the fault of the person responsible for editing the report, because that's not how it was supposed to read. Any generic report you see on right-wing extremism will say something like that but it'll sound more politically correct to avoid this kind of fake brouhaha. That wasn't supposed to be the focus of it, the fact remains that nothing about that section was untrue from an analyst's perspective (that's who it was written for, I've no idea why in the f*** something marked FOUO got released to the media but it happens all the time). Putting the shoe on the other foot, did any left-wing politician flip a s*** when the DHS under Bush released a report on left-wing extremism that "singled out" environmental/animal rights activists or antiwar protesters? No, they did not. And no, they should not have because there was nothing to flip out about. they totally freaked it out. bush was hitler. he was spying on every protestor. he was a dictator.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:01 PM) No, not even close. But you are right though, the holocaust deniers (in this country, usually white supremacists) are welcome in Iran, they go there for holocaust denial conferences etc. you sure about that, lostfan? http://www.dailypress.com/news/dp-local_wr...0,7603283.story

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:01 PM) No, not even close. But you are right though, the holocaust deniers (in this country, usually white supremacists) are welcome in Iran, they go there for holocaust denial conferences etc. how is that Ron Paul bumper stick free trade goofs? it's not. how is that vets? it's not. the report was rightly criticized and she apologized. now you guys think you have some 'win' here with this terrible tragedy. this is a win for no one, an innocent person died.
