Harold, you’re batting about .900; i.e., almost everything you submit becomes hidden due to low comment rating. What’s with that???

I’d say it’s most likely because even the conservatives are starting to wake up and realize they don’t need fringe looneys like Harold representing them.
Personally, I’d say he snorts freeze dried Rush Limbaugh programs.

It’s pretty obvious there are far more loon liberals on here than conservatives. I like the fact that my posts are generally unhidden long enough to make the liberals squeal like stuck pigs anyway.

Rambo (or is it Rambi, boy or girl?) – Unless you’re a farm boy (or girl, it’s hard to tell) you’ve probably never heard a pig squeal. So you parrot phrases like that, just like you parrot Limbo and Insannity insanity. But you being without testicals and all, it figures.

It was a horrible injustice that she was fired before the FOX trash was investigated further. We all know they lie and yet took their report at face value before checking the story. This was a big embarasement – hopefully a lesson was learned and the Admin will stop playing nice to all the bullying!

It’s actually good for all of us politically junkies to listen to both Fox and MSNBC to get both takes (as painful as the otherside can be) – then go to public tv and radio to put the facts in perspective. Sheilds and Brooks for example, provide both sides without name calling or distorting reality.

Sorry, Rambo – I actually don’t vote party lines… my vote doesn’t get cast based on party affiliation, it gets cast based on what I believe vs. what any given candidate believes in. Thinking GWB is an idiot, and Cheney hides a nice pair of horns, doesn’t automatically make me a democrat. It’s not that simple.
…Your comment isn’t actually meant to stick up for Andrew Breitbart, is it?? That guy is a clown… and he’s in good company… there’s plenty of clowns out there, on both sides of the isle.

One thing strikes me about the article. According to every other source I’ve read, the woman resigned. Or, forced to resign.
Maybe it’s just easier to print ‘fired’ than it is to print, ‘forced to resign’?
Yeah, it comes down to the same thing for her, but it’s interesting how the media does this kind of thing….

How about taking some time to learn about what I believe in, what I think, and then deciding about my credibility – rather than deciding that I am liberal and discounting anything I might have to say based on that assumption?
Unless you prefer making generalizations about people based upon your limited narrow view of them?
Hmmm………..

Right – you’ve read the handfull of posts that I’ve left here at AreaVoices – do you seriously think that’s all you need to determine the person that I am?
I’ve read your posts, too, Rambo – although, I resist the urge to generalize about the kind of person you are, because I realize that a few posts on a website does not give me a clear picture of who you are…

Actually, there are ‘two sets’.
The same facts can be slanted either way by the media, depending on what parts of the story the left or right media outlets choose to highlight. They both report the same story, one highlights one part and glosses over the other points, while the other side does the exact opposite.
So, a little ‘twist’ here and there is enough to appeal to either right or left, depending on the twist. Same facts, different slant. And they’ve been at it so long, they’re complete experts at it.
Meanwhile, us mushroom people are arguing about the same stupid stuff, day after day.

Obama and his supporters blame everybody else for the administration’s goofy decisions day after day when in the h— are they going to fess up and say we can’t do the job right. This is getting to the point where it’s dangerous for all of us and lead us down some false paths thinking that it really is everybody else’s fault and it begins to look like Obama is actually doing a good job. I shutter to think of it.
