Why not proud of being Republican and Conservative?

Why not call yourself that in your intro and in conversaton as you would at dinner?

    maybe even they realise how hypocritical the republican party really is.

    Oh right the liberal media that still supported the invasion of Iraq, that still won't report accurately on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, that still feeds the same bullshit propaganda that doesn't reflect any sane person's ideology.


    New's flash-American media is pure propaganda.

    I understand that. But lets address this question. There are other questions for sure.

    but I asked about FOX.

    Huh? what mainstream media are you watching?

    Obama is freaking Elvis in the media as far as coverage goes. And before you go there, everyone has gotten their knocks and bumps. Obama is a media celebrity.

    Jerked around?

    FOX caters towards Republicans big whoop..thought that was public knowledge.

    And the reason I brought up the other networks because I am basically saying if you hate somthing, don't you do it too.

    Its not public knowledge. I know many people that don't view them as concervative. There are many americans that don't pay too much attention to politics.. but they vote.

    If it were Public Knowledge.. then why is it not in their intro - their logo - their conversation?

    Democrat - Republican

    it's all the same and it's certainly not liberal.

    That clarifies essentially nothing, other than implying Obama is some kind of intellectual weakling.

    As far as the individuals are concerned...there really only seems to be 1 candidate that actually gives a shit, and that's Nader. And compared to Nader the media have been backing Hilary since day 1.

    Al Jazzera is to the Arab World as 'FOX News' is to America.
    Another common thread... neither of them are News stations... both are opinion stations.

    I guess what I am basically trying to say is the medias love affair with Obama is sickening and to say they are not pulling for him is a flat out lie, but whatever..if you don't like what is on change the channel...I hate Burger King fries so I chose to goto Wendys where they have square hamburgers and awesome fries..to each there own.

    Have a great night, I just may go and watch NBC to see what Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. is up to....maybe he will give another heartfelt speech


    maybe he'll get jerked around...

    but I doubt it...no such thing as bad PR in politics outside of pedophilia....because you can lie your ass off. hehe

    the 7 minutes they have between commercials seems to allow very little dissent.

    MSNBC basically ignores the israel thing, but have picked up on the fact that attacking Bush and being anti-Iraq war is fantastic for ratings. Olberman is beating O'reilly now, but half his show is pretty much an attack on O'reilly, so i dont know how those ratings hold up ( since fewer people are watching O'Reilly. )

    dont get me wrong. its all slanted, one sided bullshit, and they will change with the ratings, but it just reinforces my belief that "news" channels are motivated by the great american dollar, not some silly political agenda. They are just trying to create a loyal viewer base, and telling people what they want to here is great for ratings.

    I had a disturbing convo w/ my pops the other night. He thinks Bill O'reilly is too liberal and thinks of fox news as being a liberal news source.

    Luckily we live in a blue state :)
    NERDS!

    ha! he must be that one guy that emails him so he can read it on television to prove how fair and balanced he is.
