Gore would beat McCain in a landslide. | Clueless is someone who would vote for socialism... but continue to make your enlightened posts.
Gore is too busy trying to scam people to run for POTUS, but whatever delusions make you happy, go with it. Obama being worse is doubtful? Thanks for the laugh.

| I swear the Volnation "Politics" forum ought to just have a sticky at the top linking automatically to Fox and Drudge.
Reading the threads on here, it is clear that some of you get all of your tripe from these two "news" organizations. The NASA scientists wanting to put oil chiefs on trial (Drudge), the Portland school not using the pledge of allegiance for one single ceremony, when they use it the whole rest of the year (Fox), and the story about Obama's adviser on the economics issue (Drudge).
No wonder all facets of this society are becoming more and more outwardly combative with one another. As long as we point fingers at everyone else and blame them for our problems, and be selfish as we can possibly be and get away with it, then we aren't going to get anything done. And if ever there were two bigger whiners about lazy minorities, Godless academics, etc., than Fox and Drudge, I haven't heard of them. |

If the rest of the media wasn't so slanted, would they be as popular? Hardly, but continue to blame all society's problems on Fox and Drudge.
For the record, there are a lot of sites I get my news from besides those two, but if I did just get it from there, that would be perfectly ok.

The two remarkable things about both of these posts are that 1) neither of you disagrees with the premise that both Fox and Drudge manipulate the facts of a report in order to make a story more likely to appeal to conservatives, i.e. to bury or flatly ignore the fact that the pledge was made at the subject school every day except the one day;
and 2) instaed of telling me what's right about Fox and Drudge, you just whine some more about the other liberal media outlets. Even if your characterizations of CNN and MSNBC et. al. were correct, that does not justify mindless loyalty to being told over and over the things you already think.
I mean, if that's all you want, I can do it for you. Here goes.
War is good.
Arabs are evil.
Minorities are lazy and uneducated and most are immoral.
Public schools suck.
The government is trying to take all your money.
If we just gave our kids a little more discipline and fewer condoms, all would be right with the world. |
