Don't forget that they're going to make your grandmother eat dog food. That was a major plank in the Democratic platform when Gore was running. A personal favorite...Originally posted by Hallelujah View PostYeah, liberals never fear monger! Right!
"The republicans are going to take your SS away." "They are going to reduce your Medicare!" Global warming. And on and on. But they don't fear monger. I love it.
And while we're on Gore - what about the earth warming 15+ degrees and sea level rising by 30+ feet and monster hurricanes and tornadoes killing us all, etc, etc, etc. The last 30 years of the environmental movement has all been about fear-mongering and little else...

It had nothing to do with you and everything to do with Glenn Beck.Originally posted by JohnnyLingo View PostWell, considering Tim created it soon after attempting to bait me with a Glenn Beck reference, I'd say my paranoia is entirely justified this time around.Visca Catalunya Lliure

Glenn Beck's hysterics make it hard for me to take him seriously. Usually I can stay tuned to Greta or Bill-o for whole segments, but Beck is painful.
I'm glad Stewart and Colbert exist to provide satire of the news and how it's covered. They fricasse MSNBC, CNN, and the like along with Fox, and for good reason. They're all horrible.
It was also funny when they did the segment on the bitchy "Fox and Friends" lady and how she looked up czar on-air, despite graduating from Stanford and studying at Oxford."I don't know the origin of said bitch booming."-Art Vandelay

On occasion, when we’ve been on the cusp of doing something completely inane onNBC Nightly News, I will gently suggest to my colleagues that we simply courier the tape over to Jon’s office, to spare theDaily Show interns the time and trouble of logging our broadcast that night. That usually gets us to rethink the inane segment we were planning on airing."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

This one is tasteless and insensitive. Calling someone's ideas retarded is one thing. Calling them a "retard" and using this song, which is nothing but a mean-spirited mockery of people who cannot make themselves better, is another. This gets my seal of disapproval.Originally posted by DU Ute View Post
Oh, and consider this hidden message a prophylactic STFU, Lingo."Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action. His actions are supposed to reflect his ethical code.
The rest of us rarely bother to think about our actions." --Solon

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

The networks and deliveries may be different, but both are just lining their pockets by playing to a specific portion of the electorate.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostBeck is in the business of satire?
One of these shows is on Comedy Central and the other is on a 24-hr news channel. Big difference.
I honestly don't think pundits -- or even politicians for that matter -- take this stuff as seriously as the general public does. It's a game, and they play it, laughing all the way to the bank.So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

Boycotts are awesome. They remind of my days when I was in college adn thought everything could be fixed with a simple boycott or petition.Originally posted by Solon View Post"Discipleship is not a spectator sport.
