I agree basically with what you posted. I think there is plenty of separation and most adults understand the difference. It's more manufactured attacks at the media to render them useless. Which is what every politician wants. When the politicians control what you hear and believe, they have won the battle. The GOP is almost there.

When I read the coach's quote I thought, I wish some kid said hey coach, show me how to take it like a man. The adult involvement, albeit indirect, is sickening.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Sep 14, 2008 -> 08:12 AM) In truth, I'm not particularly bent out of shape over it. It just strikes me as a bad attempt at cleverness that in truth is entirely a racial stereotype cheap shot. Waffling/flip-flopping has not been a particularly vocal charge against Obama the way it has against McCain this time around or Kerry 4 years ago. That being the case, the ONLY legitimate reason behind the parody is to go for the Aunt Jemimah joke. At least these guys know the LCD of their target audience. I find it more interesting that the organizers didn't send them on their way. That can't be good PR.

This exact smae thing happened down here a couple season's ago and the victim's were scourned by fans of the team because a couple star players were removed.

It has been a while since we've done a thread like this. I'll post and word and you have to post a word that is somehow connected. For example we could post a chain dog --> flea --> market --> place etc. etc. I'll start media bias (just kidding) computer

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Sep 13, 2008 -> 10:22 PM) Tex, I asked you two pretty direct questions. Care to answer them? No it was not accurate. Based on the transcript (is the transcript accurate? Was it from an unbiased source) Yes I think it is entirely fair to report partial questions and answers, it's what reporters do. Space is limited. The choice is simple, report less questions in their entirety (and have you claim bias in which questions were omitted) or report more answers, but abridged. Tens of thousands of newspaper articles are printed every day. Some are by reporters who are not very good at their craft and some articles are very good. If finding a few examples, out of those tens of thousands of articles, that are poorly written confirms the GOP party line of media bias, fine, you believe and the GOP loves you. I prefer to keep faith in the watchdogs. But you have to love the Grand Old Party's strategy, it is brilliant. As soon as a negative article comes out, find flaws in the article and start screaming. There doesn't even have to be flaws, just find something. And if a positive article comes out about an opponent, start screaming about where's my coverage? Then everybody starts discussing media bias and ignores the story. I love it, I wish my candidates thought of it first. I'll only ask one direct question from you. Since our system sucks so bad and has such terrible bias, care to point me to a better one?

And if I look I will find a poor reporting job that makes a Dem look bad. There are errors. But they all even out, and that is all we can ask from a free press. You want transcripts and no editing. But then the complaint will be why some transcript wasn't added. Last year someone died from drinking too much water in a radio promotion. Hundreds of people drowned last year. See, that proves that water is dangerous and we need to get rid of it. But keep believing that the world is out to get Reps and you need to circle the wagons. That bunker mentality is what they want. You and them against the world. /back to lurking.

My traveling room mate on the cross country team in college would sleep walk. We made certain to put everything away in the room so he would not trip or fall. He only did it once or twice but I could tell he was really stressed out about it.
