All one has to do is read any source covering the antics of Pelosi, Reid and crew in relation to the fairness doctrine, and then apply a small amount of thought to the facts. Why, even you could figure it out if you put your mind to it Ahh... I don't think Rush is part of the left-wing mainstream media. Oh, that's hardly true. Mainstream media is still having conniptions due to his success. Whether or not that defines them as left-wing is a matter of opinion. Personally, I see both "wings" as flip sides of a very small coin, only minor differences in a trivial pool of subjects. There's a far wider universe of issues out there than that little bit of so-called reality. Except that Dave continually uses the term left-wing media to assert that the media is skewed in favor of the left. He conveniently leaves out Fox, Rush, and others, and seems happy to point out how Air America failed. I find nothing whatever enjoyable about listening or watching vitriol from either side. Well, I do like listening to Olbermann. LOL -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

Anyone who has been following the news would, of course, realize that the Dems have been having a wet dream over the prospect of being able to shut down talk radio, which for some reason doesn't seem to favor their views. Since liberal talk radio has been a complete non-starter, the Dems' calculation is that if they can re-impose the "fairness doctrine" on all media, radio will have to carry enough money-losing shows having a liberal agenda so that they will decide to drop talk shows entirely, leaving standing only their MSM friends. This is even more of a side-track from the list's charter.... It's so amazing that not one liberal talk show has grown legs like the conservative ones. I hear a few on NPR, but they are so unentertaining, so serious, so full of themselves. Perhaps because true liberals aren't really interested in destruction politics. Rush at least is entertaining, good enough that his opponents may form a significant portion of his audience, and his show survives quite nicely without relying on tax-free donations and government hand-outs. Don't know about his audience. I do know from my small amount of listening is that he's a racist assh*le, with very little actual knowledge. If he were only *against* something (which seems the Liberals' primary thrust), his show would have died when a Republican congress was elected, when Bush 1 was elected, when he went into rehab, when ... many things happened. He's still the liberals' nightmare. No. He's disgusting. Anyone who listens to him regularly, who swallows his garbage can't really claim to be thinking. I don't even agree with him much of the time, but I have to point out those things. Do tell. Even a maniac can say "right" things from time to time. Liberals, for some reason, don't seem to consider that others' opinions could possibly be correct. ?? An opinion is an opinion. Take it or leave it. I certainly don't speak for all liberals, but the line for me is when there's hate-mongering and lying. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

Obama was never a professor. He was an instructor, but he never wrote anything of significance.... Google 'Obama professorial posts'. Not all his students raved about Prof Obama. Perhaps you are unsure of the difference between an instructor (often a graduate student in the American system), and a "lecturer", the label for a professor, as titled in e.g the British system. States with Vo-techs often have academics titled professor, let alone first tier professional schools. Brian W Why Google, just go to the University of Chicago for info: http://www.law.uchicago.edu/media/index.html He was a senior lecturer and was invited to a tenure track leading to professor. U of C says so. |

Dave,
Note in the U of C article "Senior Lecturer" is capitalized and "professor" with regard to Obama or the position isn't. "Professors" have tenure, not all "professors" do. One is a title, the other is a noun. |

@news.alt.net: According to the United States Government Printing Office, the following states ratified the amendment: See, there's the little problem. The states that DID ratify the amendment ratified a CHANGED amendment, not the original one the banker class wrote. But, when they got back to Washington, it was "certified" that they ratified the original document, which simply ISN'T, and never was, true. As the ratification was fraudulent, so was the Amendment. |
