billvon 3,116 #26 May 7, 2007 >So the side with the most entertaining clown wins? Well, the side with the most appealing program wins. For some stations it will be the most entertaining clown, and you'll have your pick of conservative or liberal clowns (as you do now.) For some stations it will be the most balanced show in the opinion of the viewer. And for other sources it will be whatever you can get - and they won't care if you watch them or not. The BBC or the Australian media would fall under this category. >There are people that go on Colbert and actually think they can >"win" against a professional smart ass.

narcimund 0 #28 May 7, 2007 Quote When the left gets ceptic about a topic? I know it is very close to home Ah, once again with your famous but tired faulty logic: "I can tell by the style of your response that I'm right." I thought we'd successfully taught you better. Whenever you trot this out I know you're at wit's end trying to think of a way to save face. And "septic"? That's a strange euphemism you've used a lot lately. Is that a Limbaughism? And since you're parroting someone else, have you bothered to learn what the word means? It hardly applies here. "Septic" doesn't mean "a reply that confuses me."

Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 3,116 #32 May 7, 2007 >Septic, my bad "Septic" means "germ-ridden" or "infected." A septic wound is one that's gotten infected, and a septic tank is one that relies on bacteria to break down wastes. Might you have meant "skeptic?" Or "separate?"

GQ_jumper 4 #37 May 8, 2007 Interesting that when media outlets have a conservative slant, it's freedom of speech in action. But when they have a liberal slant, it's a conspiracy of the lying liberal media, who are no doubt in bed with the democratic party. Quote Where in my post did I ever mention a conspiracy because a media outlet had an opposing viewpoint. There are tons of media outlets I choose not to pay attention to because I don't like the way they present things. I have never once said they were under liberal control. they can say whatever the hell they want and I can turn the channel. Simple as that, why do people need to bitch.History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. --Dwight D. Eisenhower Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites rehmwa 2 #38 May 8, 2007 QuoteWhere in my post did I ever mention a conspiracy because a media outlet had an opposing viewpoint.

"why do people bitch?" 1 - Because they are more concerned with what other people listen to than themselves. And wish to control it. 2 - They have no self control and are ashamed that they can't choose to change the channel. And think everyone is that way. 3 - They sympathize with the opposing viewpoint and that scares them. So they want to stifle it. Each one comes down to some kind of personal weakness or arrogance on the complainer's part. ...
