No idea why you want to bring in the Right wing media, like Michael Savage, Ann Coulter (already has her own thread), not to mention FOX news picked upon by just about every liberal here. You don't like it when the game is narrowed down to liberal media only. Right away you try to change the subject. Here is a question for you, why is it that at most "Tea Party" protests cursing was pretty much kept to a minimum while those Liberals protesting here and in Wisconsin always have to resort to F this or F that. Guess when your wrong and don't want to admit it when there is not much else to say. Now you can probably research some Tea Party protests and find someone cursing, but that unlike with Liberals is not the norm. Another point is why cannot liberal talk radio maintain a sponsor, they all seem to drop off the air.

You don't find so many Liberals stomping the **** out of teabaggers when they start protesting Democrat politicians though. I have to say that when a thread is started to hack on rightwing media, there is no shortage of rightards storming in to provide the counter point with their own examples of what you are condemning here.

You have to keep in mind that Liberals are pretty much big mouths, not much backbone other than causing riots from afar and crying when someone tries to physically stop them. We haven't seen many Tea Baggers stomping anybody, protests are fairly quiet. As I mentioned, in your reply you bring up people who have not the mental capacity of most, you people do seem to look down on those with problems and then compare them with those you oppose. Why liberals have to resort to name calling, must be frustration thing.

Liberals make change, neocons start unneeded wars and empty government coffers providing for the wealthy and corporations. God help the people if there is a surplus and the debt starts getting paid down. Neocons make short work of that, rack up a huge deficit and buy the time the support they won by telling lies dwindles, it's back to telling everyone how much things suck now.

If you're a fu cking idiot, you need to accept that people are going to call you a fu cking idiot. Deal with it.

Same reason everyone does it here.....fair and balanced.

Is there liberal media....yep.

Is there right media....yep.

Shouild they both be held accountable even if they use the often trotted out line "it's just an opinion".....yep.

I'd love to see Hannity dragged into court everytime he lies.

Trying to think of a lefty.....Olberman quit....well whom ever dragged into court for lying.

The end....thread over.

I knew you would say that, that's why I drew you out like this.
Drew me out, I said this at the beginning of this exchange.

Is Sarah Palin smart enough to be president?


Does Sarah Palin have what it takes to be president? It’s too soon to say, but I think if measured against the Kipling standard, she would stack up pretty well — probably better than a lot of those who have occupied the Oval Office.

Good question. Are you? Come on now — no false modesty. No quips about being smart enough not to run for president, or any other dodges. The question is do you think you are smart enough to be CEO of the United States of America, and to, as the presidential oath puts it, “faithfully execute the office of president of the United States, and … to the best of [your] ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States?” That’s a pretty simple and straight- forward job description — think you’re smart enough to handle it? Or put the question another way: Do you think you’re too dumb to be president? Again, no false modesty. Fess up. If it’s any comfort, I think it’s a good bet that you are smart enough to be president. This isn’t because you’re so damned smart; it’s because being president of the United States, although it requires some extraordinary personal attributes, doesn’t demand extraordinary intelligence and erudition.

Am I intellectually smart enough to be PotUS? Absolutely. I have no doubts about that.
Do I have the political smarts? Maybe. I tend to say what I think, which isn't always a good idea.

Not that I'm qualified anyway, but you did ask the question.

I know I am that brilliant. You are but a puppet and I, the puppet master.
And like Sarah Palin, you are too dumb to be the President.

The Queen's Riddle


Barack Obama met with the Queen of England.

He asked her, "Your Majesty, how do you run such an efficient
government?
Are there any tips you can give me?"

"Well," said the Queen, "the most important thing is to surround
yourself with intelligent people."

Obama frowned, and then asked, "But how do I know the people around me
are really intelligent?"

The Queen took a sip of tea. "Oh, that's easy; you just ask them to
answer an intelligent riddle."

The Queen pushed a button on her intercom. "Please send Tony Blair in
here, would you?"

Tony Blair walked into the room and said, "Yes, Your Majesty?"

The Queen smiled and said, "Answer me this please, Tony, your mother
and father have a child. It is not your brother and it is not your sister.
Who is it?"

Without pausing for a moment, Tony Blair answered, "That would be me."

"Yes! Very good," said the Queen.

Obama went back home to ask Joe Biden the same question. "Joe, answer
this for me. Your mother and your father have a child. It's not your
brother and it's not your sister. Who is it?"

"I'm not sure," said Biden. "Let me get back to you on that one."

He went to his advisors and asked every one, but none could give him
an answer.

Finally, he ran into Sarah Palin out eating one night. Biden asked,
"Sarah, can you answer this for me? Your mother and father have a
child and it's not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"

Sarah Palin answered back, "That's easy, it's me!"

Biden smiled, and said, "Thanks!" Then, he went back to speak with
Obama.

"Say, I did some research and I have the answer to that riddle. It's
Sarah Palin!"

Obama got up, stomped over to Biden, and angrily yelled into his face,
"No! You idiot! It's Tony Blair!"

There has never been a person attacked as baselessly and and as viciouisly by human garbage considered, charitably as humans, as Sarah Palin.

And there has never been another person who withstood such attacks with so much dignity and courage as she has done.

Family? Never mind, it's OK to attack hers. Handicapped child? It's OK to call hers a RETARD. Tell lies? It's OK to tell the worst ones about her and her family. Scrutiny? It's OK to send hordes of salivating predators on her family's house,read her E-mails, malign her in every every possible or otherwise, while giving and have been giving the worst cancer on the American body, the sick half-breed joke occupying the White House, a free pass.

Cuts both ways when your as big a publicity hound with books, tours, tweets, a reallity show and doing whatever she can do to stay in the spotlight as Palin does. Not everything that comes back will have a positive spin.
Obama's a little different considering the spotlight is always on him and yes he seemed to get a free ride for some time however that seems to be changing.

So, you think it is not OK to author two books. You think it is NOT OK to make speech engagements.

You must be a total opponent of 0bama, then.

Where did you come up with that? Interesting way to twist words and meaning.
I'm sure somewhere back in my posting history in CC I suggested Obama would be a one term president. That opinion hasn't changed as long as the GOP has someone of substance leading their ticket.
