... So? What does Jae's opinion have anything to do with real evidence to support this? Are you implying that Jae is either an idiot or a far-right partisan hack? Is that what you're implying, cause last I checked, Jae tends to be left of center on...  [Read More]

Thread split from The Ayers thread. Carry on issues about the Mass Media and bias (perceived or real) here. Thanks, Jae. I would argue about your biased "truth", and lack of substantial sources, but you're in the wrong thread. This is the...  [Read More]

That's a ridiculous exaggeration. Why would Obama being president logically lead to a holocaust? What is the nutcase President of Iran trying to build? Nuclear Weapons, and the fact Obama doesn't want to provoke the man with sanctions and instead j...  [Read More]

Actually, the words were, "...we don't torture." (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/09/06/five_years/main1980074_page3.shtml) And yes, I saw the entire interview, because it took place at the time when Bush was asking Congress to split ha...  [Read More]

Please provide proof other than the Dan Rather debacle that shows that CBS is out to smear conservative politicians by editing parts of interviews to make them look like idiots. Right now, your argument has little value. Wasn't Dan Rather employed b...  [Read More]

Every news outlet does that, so I don't see why it's a crime for CBS to do it. It is when they are editting it to try to advance a political agenda. Furthermore, not every news station does it. Fox News only split up Bill O'Reilly's interviews with...  [Read More]

Lincoln, I trust as he has a brain and integrity - I know bush doesn't have much of the former, and I don't know enough about the man to comment on the latter. Further more I'd argue that Lincoln's war was a just war, where as I don't think you can c...  [Read More]

While God may be all knowing, that doesn't mean the future is fixed, I imagine God has done a few things to influence things, but by and large we do have the freedom to choose. It isn't predestination, it's just God exists outside time and is watchi...  [Read More]

Sure, because that's all you meant by throwing his name around. And I think you're confusing Bush with Obama, and MSNBC for Fox News. Or, you could be confusing Bush with facts and logic. Not sure yet. I've confused nothing I can find evidence to...  [Read More]
