Indeed, and speaking of diplomacy, I am glad to see the state department back in the hands of political and career diplomats, and no longer a tool of the pentagram, er, pentagon. The only thing I find disturbing about some of the rushed confirmations is the willingness to overlook/ignore some character flaws or misdeeds in some of the nominee's backgrounds because we are in such a critical "emergency" situation economically and politically. Didn't Obama state in his inauguration address that we will not sacrifice principles in the execution of of policies? This all sounds and feels disturbingly familiar. Eisboch Perhaps congress is looking for experience FAST. They got some. Now, if only someone would talk Obama into asking Gates to stick around..... I suppose we could dredge up more like Mike Brown, whose experience running a horse association served us so well.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Hummm, if exerience is an issue, why the hell did you elect Obama??? ================= I didn't really vote FOR Obama. I voted AGAINST two things: 1) McCain, who's too wrapped up in trying to equal his father and grandfather's achievements, probably using other people's kids as pawns to achieve that end. 2) Palin, who displayed two characteristics which I find unacceptable for high office, and I won't budge on these characteristics. Don't ask what they are. If you don't already know, we'll be wasting our time discussing them. You could have voted for a third party candidate. You know somebody who really reflects your views. And throw away what might've been a slim margin, thereby ending up with the wrong person in the White House? Not a chance. You have no principles. Neither does a political party that cares so little about America that it would permit itself to be represented by George W. Bush or Sarah Palin.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - There you go again, straying off the subject when asked to answer a question. We have answered several for you this morning, with names and sources, you have not managed to answer even one simple qestion.. Just the same old twisted justifications and non-answers... Though you would have learned by now.. later... ============ They've all been answered. But, the answers were not simple enough for you to understand.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - You didn't answer what you consider "grown up news", you didn't give a list or detractors beyond "I have a list in my car" what could be more simple? =========== NPR and BBC, mentioned earlier.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - So, you only listen to left wing news, explains a lot really. ============= I'd be happy to listen to a source which you consider balanced, or even right-wing, as long as the stories are longer than 15 seconds. Please provide one or two and I will listen.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - 15 seconds? So, you really are not interested in "the other side". Are the stories on NPR and the BBC limited to 15 seconds? Just the question you ask shows you have never really sought out information other than what suits your ideology, you are uninformed by choice, holy ****, I had at least given you more than that. No wonder you can never really answer questions, if I were in your shoes I would be embarassed too. Again, it explains a lot... ============= I want in-depth stories, each of which last more than 15 seconds. If this seems strange to you, go look at the second hand on a clock for 15 seconds. Now, tell me about one or two news sources which you like, whose news stories last longer than 15 seconds. Do you have any?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Already answered, try to keep up... Gotta' go now, can't waste my time on folks who are intentionally uninformed... ===================== This was your response to my request for a source which you like: "15 seconds? So, you really are not interested in "the other side". Are the stories on NPR and the BBC limited to 15 seconds? Just the question you ask shows you have never really sought out information other than what suits your ideology, you are uninformed by choice, holy ****, I had at least given you more than that. No wonder you can never really answer questions, if I were in your shoes I would be embarassed too. Again, it explains a lot..." Your response does not name any sources. Since it is not possible to understand the world based on 15 second news stories, the only possible conclusion is that you have no sources which provide detailed information. If this is not true, name your source(s).- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Already noted several sources. Fox, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, BBC world news, 60 mins, Fox news Sunday, Hardball... Your silly qualifiers (15 seconds) are just excuses. You really need to expand your input if you wish to keep up... ====================== You like 60 Minutes??? Aren't you people being instructed by the Garlique salesman to hate CBS? And, it appears we agree on BBC, although you pretended not to notice that when you claimed not to like my sources.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - You really need to start to read. I did not say anywhere I did not like the BBC.. ==================== No, but when I mentioned it, you dissed it. ==================== I simply noted that your stated sources limit you to one point of view. As to CBS, I don't always agree, but I watch for the same reasons I watch Chris Matthews, I am interested in all viewpoints, not just the ones I agree with. That is the difference between me and folks like you and Harry... I don't consider any part of the country "fly over", I want to be informed, even if it changes my opinion.. ==================== Most of your sources involve sitting and watching. I need to receive information at a higher rate of speed. I have an actual life from 6:00 AM until midnight most days. |
