No, no, no… He didn’t say “dislike” he said “hate”.

Bet he won your vote with that one, eh?

Well, Mr. Frosty, it turns out that “facts” are fuzzy things after all.

“I dunno, I’m still stuck on the fact he said “You’ve got the ‘cables’”… in reference to cable television as opposed to actual… cables.”

Of course, he was referring to submarine telegraph cables. Why, you can send a message from London to New York in less than a day!

Blaming Jon Stewart for the news degradation is like blaming your chicken pox scars for having given you chicken pox. Jon’s popularity is a direct result of his ability to make fun of how bad the MSM has gotten. Our idiot overlords and their MSM stooges are just annoyed that he is able, not merely to make them look stupid, but let them show the world in their own worlds just how stupid they are.

Is it sad that at 25 I’m already so jaded about straw man arguments from candidates and real news? I’ve seen reports on how Jon Stewart can be blamed for news degradation but frankly, when you have “real” news people like Bill O’Reily and Keith Olberman making infotainment, it all becomes sort of moot.

At least at this point I’m glad Hillary isn’t the major candidate, she was way too eager to censor games rather than encourage the newest medium to head towards it’s fullest potential.

I remember back in 2001, when I didn’t care Bush win, to 2004 when I disliked his second win (And I really hated he go to Iraq).

However late on I go on defended him, not because how good a job he did, but because how bad the ultra liberals were doing to this country.

The reason I reacted so negatively to McCain over his comment is, there are attempts to shutdown the new free media over the disguise of “Fairness”, from both democrats and republicans.

Freedom of speech is the bases of democracy, and unlike the Europe, most people in US still have the guts to hear out critics and not worry about feelings been hurt.

>Being both a Republican (albeit of the Chuck Hagel variety) and an old person, I do, in >fact, get the joke.

The conception you get of american Republicans is somewhat negative from europe, so I am rather *amazed* how they ever get someone to vote for them. It’s not just George Bush, but especially amazing why people did vote for him when any fact seemed to scream against him. When I say amazing, I mean it as that, I really like to understand the reasons. Is this some local states issue with nice senators who actually do a good job?

I dunno, it seems pretty easy.. hell, Fox News wouldn’t have headlines without “bloggers”, at least in regards to political punditry. Blogger says Obama is actually now a militant jew, Fox reports on this and how it could be possible with photos of him once eating matza, somewhere in the midwest you can hear a yell on the wind proclaiming “I KNEW IT!”.

I mean, illogical or not the damage is done. It just becomes a matter of how fast it spreads and if it becomes relevant enough to be addressed.
