QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 19, 2007 -> 09:23 AM) The kid got exactly what he deserved. If you start to resist and fight off the cops, they are going to have to take control of the situation in one form or another. Judging by the questions he was asking, and the way he reacted when he was asked to leave, he was looking for the attention and had this pretty well planned out. He deserved to get arrested. We expect the police to exert the amount of violence necessary to accomplish that goal. When the efforts of the police greatly exceed what is necessary, we reign the police back in. At the minimum it seems there should be an investigation.

Instant pictures from around the globe. News getting reported in seconds or as it happens instead of hours or weeks later, I'd say current network news is far ahead of a generation or two ago.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Sep 17, 2007 -> 08:57 PM) I know, the only real news sources are the New York Times (Jason Blair) and CBS (Dan Rather). Woo hoo, goooooo news! Seriously though, if someone thinks that the O'reilly Factor or Hannity and Colmes is news, they are fooling themselves. Those are opinion shows, nothing more or less. As far as the other FOX news shows or outlets, they are no worse than most of the news you consider accurate. But step two, after reading/hearing/watching news, people form opinions. The beauty of the GOP's position is they cut out the first step, why pay any attention to the biased media, when you can find out what to think by listening and watching the GOP broadcast network? Brilliant strategy. So the Dems have a hold on the media's reporting of the news and the GOP has a stranglehold on telling people what to believe. One is infinitely more important. But it is more fun to find an unflattering article of a GOP and start whining media bias

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 06:40 PM) I think the government may have transferred NUKE to the counter cyber-terrorism department and he is practicing by hacking Texsox account Actually hundreds of Kap posts on the subject.

^^ ^^ Just look at CNN's political page Picture of Obama, Clinton Dismisses Critics Why Washington Doesn't Get Thompson and of courese another Craig story. Disgusting.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 04:33 PM) But we have to pay for those immigrants somehow. In this case, low income Americans would be the same as immigrants. But you really just want to bait.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 04:21 PM) Google Earth is the coolest thing ever created by humans. Glad you accept the fact that some things are God made . . .

I really dislike the layers and layers of taxes we pay.

Buffalo Bill, maybe there is something to this list. That was over in a blink of an eye, but one of the best shows I've seen. I did a quick count and I think I've not seen about 18 of those shows.

The only question is how to solve the problem.

Obvious as the nose on my face.

Hundreds of Kap posts pointing out media bias has changed my mind. I only found one pic of a candidate in an empty auditorium? The candidate's party? GOP. But I'm not turning into a GOPerhead. The Dems won the media. Sucks to be a Rep.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 03:14 PM) I'll see your sarcasm and raise you reality... We get the media we want. Guess what - the media is full of useless soundbites and shallow, silly stories that glorify Democrats Fixed it for you. I've been looking at media from an unbiased standpoint and I now agree with the GOP. The media is in the liberal back pocket.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 02:54 PM) The "media" reported an event. Some outlets then blew it up into something, which is what they do to every candidate in both parties. They aren't biased... they're lazy and incompetent. There is secret network of journalist who meet regularly and decide how stories will be covered. It is dominated by liberals. Not certain how liberals got control of the media, but they did. All news outlets have to agree to follow their guidelines. Conservatives have not been able to crack this cartel.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 02:40 PM) Exactly. But the media's not biased! Because they make more money promoting liberal causes. All conservative reporters and editors are fired before they can cause any problems. Thank God Fox is there to provide unbiased coverage.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 02:30 PM) Ah so now we know how Thompson is going to be stereotyped by the media... I guess it was conviently ignored in the mainstream that dispite the reporters not knowing what Thompson was talking about, Fred Thompson actually knew what he was talking about. I wonder who the media elected in their secret election. If they would just come out and tell us, we can all avoid the campaigns and polling. We know they are the ones that really elect the President.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 01:56 PM) Wrong time, wrong place? What does that even mean? Seriously. Think Tom Jones singing You can leave your hat on, champagne, chocolate, crab legs, candles, a really hot guy Now it's a blind date and he's at your parents house. wrong time, wrong place

If I ever agreed that capital punishment was warranted, this would be it.

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 01:08 PM) Pee Wee's Playhouse is listed, but Law & Order isn't. Where are the Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock shows? What about Inside The NFL during the Dawson/Buonicotti/Collinsworth years? I'm not that big a fan of Family Guy, but where in the hell is it? "MTV 1981-1992" -- What happened in 1993? Why is 1992 the cut-off point? I see Gilmore Girls, Felicity, etc, but no Beverly Hills 90210? I could probably sit here all day pointing out major flaws. That list is atrocious, mang. Thanks, I won't bother clicking, this tells me all I need to know.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 17, 2007 -> 09:47 PM) I think the Giuliani wing part is sort of an aside. The fact that Romney used the hospital without permission is more the issue, at least from my view. I'm not certain this is an issue. People use back drops all the time, think Capitol Hill, any downtown corner, etc. So they found a hospital and shot the message.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Sep 18, 2007 -> 11:16 AM) I am soooooo sick of the "leave Britney alone" spoofs. I'm not, not by a long shot. Of course I'm not so starved for entertainment that I have watched any of them. Could be all that indy music has caused you to be less discriminating in your clicking
