QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 23, 2007 -> 03:42 PM) How did MSM become the gold standard for journalism? Actually it used to be. It still has major influence, fortunately people are more informed now and the mainstream media's biased reporting is causing them to hemorrhage creditability. It is still important to call them out on their BS

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 23, 2007 -> 03:29 PM) fixed see, now you agree with me

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Oct 23, 2007 -> 03:30 PM) The fact that the story was posted from a news article shows that the media is covering it. Just because there is a link posted on drudge or something does not signify the MSM is covering it.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Oct 23, 2007 -> 03:26 PM) Does anyone think that the church that follows around and protests Soldiers funerals would have anything to do with this? I think it could be. If thats the case, then it will be in the media and rightfully so. But it should get coverage, even if it's turns out not to be them IMO.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Oct 23, 2007 -> 03:17 PM) I'm glad you're not a judge. You be calling for the death penalty with no evidence in a case. what are you talking about? just another one of your nonsensical rants I suppose.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Oct 23, 2007 -> 03:03 PM) What if this was an ex girlfriend that found out he cheated on her? Or what if it was some drunk vagrant who decided to be a dick? yea right, that is very unlikely. what if those same situations were the reasons behind those stupid nooses being hung on doors? the media won't cover this because they are afraid it will be one of these far-left activists that they try to protect.

any guesses on how much MSM coverage this hate crime will get?

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 23, 2007 -> 03:26 AM) What is worst about these tax proposals out there for Chicago, Cook and IL, is that there ARE some things in there that DO need more funding. Mass transit particularly (which the county has nothing to do with). I hope if doesn't get battered again because a bunch of other B.S. is being proposed with it. The problem is Cook county is extremely wasteful. These massive tax increases will continue until people have had enough and demand a more efficient local government.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 23, 2007 -> 04:33 AM) Representative. If they are not representing the wishes of their district, then what are the representing? Special interest groups? They do represent their district, else they will lose the next election. Almost no one respects these windsock politicians that change their mind 2 twice a week based on which poll just came out. But hey, if their constituents like that kind of politician they will re-elect and thats fine. However, I agree, the only true way to have the will of he people is to go 100% off polls "In the news today, the 'free Porsche for everyone' bill has been passed and been implemented. Only to be revoked 2 days later. And then passed again"

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 22, 2007 -> 09:35 PM) I guess listening to citizens is a weakness. Good thing GOP leadership would never listen to what the public wants why even have representatives? just have all legislation be based off a CNN poll :usa

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Oct 22, 2007 -> 04:10 PM) And there is still room on the bandwagon!!! YES! count me in

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Oct 22, 2007 -> 04:44 PM) She voted for authorizing the war. Not for conducting the war in a half-assed way. incorrect. she was all for the half-assed strategy, she made no objections. John McCain? Yes, he called GW out on the strategy.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Oct 22, 2007 -> 02:16 PM) Would any other Presidential Candidate from the last 8 years or so have invaded Iraq and done so in such a foolish way? uh, Hillary Clinton was all for it.

Hafner got pwned

double play ends it. questionable call to not wave lofton around for the tie

Horrible call at second on Lofton

QUOTE(BearSox @ Oct 20, 2007 -> 05:44 PM) isn't everyone in the book actually gay? good point BearSox

QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Oct 19, 2007 -> 05:43 PM) Here's the text of the poll questions: The wording is kinda weird. And then the other question seems even more loaded. The first question you cited seemed fine to me. But I agree with you on the second one, it did seem loaded.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 19, 2007 -> 02:24 PM) Ron Paul higlighting his social conervative credentials, now that he is becoming a slightly bigger blip on the radar. He's apparently a staunch pro-lifer, wanting to pull the rug out from under the courts. Interesting idea, though I don't really agree with it. He certainly does get right to the point though, doesn't he? I like Ron Paul (and the Libertarian party in general), but all this liberal support of the guy is very precarious. He is pretty much 90% against everything they support. If they thought the Bush tax cuts were too much, a libertarian would go way over the top of those. Also, the federal governments role in just about everything would be greatly diminished, as would our involvement in the United Nations. Also, he isn't going to just be against a war started by the GOP, he is going to be against just about any military action the Dems will take.

there were problems with the bill, for one thing a 25 year old is not a child. all the dems needed to do was take out some of the worst parts and it would have been passed. but they were more concerned in making a big "GOP hates kids and eats babies" spectacle rather than getting health insurance for poor kids.

LOL, i just read his history of insults Pretty funny that he has gotten a total pass by the Dems in the MSM until now. Oh well, it eventually comes back and bites em in the ass (as usual)
