    Election idea

    yes we need a "none of the above" option on the ballot You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  6. I love this "A grand jury convened to investigate whether a Houston Planned Parenthood clinic had sold the organs of aborted fetuses on Monday cleared the clinic and instead indicted the undercover videographers behind the allegations, surprising the officials who called for the probe" kinda backfired on them huh?

  7. a bodyguard with a pellet gun, a sumo wrestler and "blowing the battle horns" yep bring in the buses and take them all to the loony bin You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  8. +1 Letting the fools sit there in a one-sided stand-off with nobody. It just makes them material for the late-night comedians. This is orders of magnitude better than another Waco or Ruby Ridge situation. I think this is the best option. No way you want another Ruby Ridge. I don't know why Ammon Bundy was not arrested at the town meeting a few days ago. Maybe they made a deal so he could attend the meeting without threat of arrest??

  9. Oregon's governor blasted the federal government's response to the occupation of a wildlife refuge by a group of armed men, saying the situation was "absolutely intolerable" and costing the state about $100,000 a week. this sounds like a good reason to get the situation resolved ASAP You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  10. looks like it's dangerous to be a hip hop or rap artist You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  11. So you can't really point to Germany and say "look what's going to happen in the U.S. if we let all these refugees in." It is a totally different situation here. Albeit with a different set of problems/challenges with integration. You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  12. here are 2 articles about Wal-Mart closing some stores this one from the Conservative Times blaming it on the raising of the minimum wage in LA and this one from CNN just pretty much quoting the company rep You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  13. this happened You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  14. So multiple sources it is. Thanks for all the recommendations. And jgoose "biases are not necessarily in the reporting, but biases can also be shown in what is not reported." this is a very good point You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  15. I think it was the Daily Show that suggested that the dildos were so that the militia guys could go fuck themselves. And on a more serious note: It seems like the militia has little or no regard for Native artifacts. You know, the people who were on the land to begin with. http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2016/01/19/oregon-militia-nuts-hold-paiute-history-artifacts-hostage-163116 from your link "all they are doing is making enemies out of the people they professed to support.” and I think it was last night?? at the town meeting the local residents were chanting "go go go" nobody wants them there even the ranchers they say they are there to support You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  16. Ah, yeah, I can see that. I was thinking more like the god dude has a sense of humor. Like with the platypus and such. Either way it makes sense but I like Turtles take on it You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  17. How about your local newspapers? I get the Orlando Sentinel every day. It's owned by the Tribune publishing company. Seems to be pretty unbiased possibly a slightly conservative slant. (It is Florida after all.) But I like getting the paper delivered to the house every morning. Plus they have comics, Sudoku and on Sunday the NYT crossword puzzle.
  18. I saw that Al Jazeera America is closing down You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  19. the Economist looks to be a good place to get news. I think I am going with NPR BBC and The Economist for a good mix of articles. Good point about foreign news sources not having the Dem Repub bias. Also interesting to see how the rest of the world views what is happening in the U.S. You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  20. I agree with this. When FOX news started "reporting" on American Idol I had to change the channel. You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  21. But hey it beat the hell out of that country noise you listen to is that 90.7 locally? You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  22. untapped un-talent You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  23. BBC NPR PBS top 3 on the list awesome thanks I will stop clicking on the first link I see and try to get some unbiased news
  24. According to Business Insider the BBC is on the top of the list for most trusted news outlet across all ideological groups. Looks like PBS is the most trusted U.S. news source. It's funny looking at this chart the "consistently conservative" do not seem to trust any news sources except Limbaugh, Hannity and Beck. The Wall Street Journal seems to be the only one that everyone trusts. You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  25. A topic brought up in another thread yesterday. In searching the web on this topic I found this. I do not know anything about the author but I found it interesting. Like this comment "Moreover, we, as humans, seem to naturally default to those areas that we find comfort in—places of camaraderie, communion, self-affirmation and self-improvement." But if we only use the sources that cater to our preconceived ideas we can never understand the other side of the story. Here is what he says about AlterNet “NO GOVERNMENT, CORPORATE OR ADVERTISING $$$,”. Which (as pointed out by Turtle yesterday) seems to be a good criteria for impartial reporting. So my question is where do you go for 'fair and balanced" news? You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
