actually panda, you and RMl have not shown a single leader of any Tea Party movement to have refered to them self that way.

You did find a picture of an old man.

Some how you think the "movement" speaks with one voice, which really is simply dumb. But you apperantly must believe it.

So you can pretend it is not bias to refer to them as "teabaggers" while snickering.


Someone made a few buttons, which can easily be done on a home computer, (which is the only evidence either of you provided, oh also a blog post), so to you that speaks for the "Movement" . Have I got that right.


Again, neither of you showed a leader saying that, nor was that what they called them selves, they called it aa "Tea Party".

NBC’s ObamaVision: ‘Law and Order’ — ‘This Is Why We Need Health-Care Reform’




NBC’s “Law and Order” is in its 20th season. The economy is weak, so they have devolved to converting White House talking points into weekly shows. Last week, “Doped” was a farcical equivalent of “Damien Thorn meets Karen Silkwood.” Pharmaceutical companies and Doctors are worse than drug cartels. The killers in the previous week’s episode on such cartels were more sympathetic than the health professionals.


In the opening scene, a woman with 4 children is driving the wrong way down the West Side Highway (like the Diane Schuler Taconic Parkway horror this summer). Speaking on her cell phone erratically (no “hands free!”), the kids get concerned. She decides it is time to use nasal spray for her allergies, which had been spiked without her knowledge. Flash forward and viewers see two mangled vehicles resulting in seven deaths.


Detectives Barnard and Lupo scan the usual suspects; husband (nope, he seems too distraught), in-laws (no reason, plus their kids died), even the cancer stricken mother-in-law (too sincere). We discover the deceased woman and her boss (“Mad Men’s” Rich Sommer) have had secret late night meetings for weeks. They discovered their drug company has doctored marketing materials and bribed doctors to push a cancer medication which can extend terminal patients lives up to a few months, although most last at most a week. The medication is a $1000 a day. The episode makes it clear such life extending drugs exist for drug company profit only.


Consumers are portrayed as morons and dupes. Doctor’s have magical (and evil) powers to persuade them to buy this drug against their own better judgment and economic interest. One middle aged son complains that his father lasted 30 days too long on the drug, thus wiping out his mother’s savings as she was forced to sell her house...

MM not a single word about it being pointed out that you changed the terms of your challenge in the middle, in order to pretend you won it......I expected nothing else from you.

Expect a lengthy response. I just don't have time to compose it during the work week.

On a different subject I just heard Lawrence O'Donnell talking with Tom Harkin and Chuck Schumer say there will be a vote on Saturday and the Democrats will get the 60 votes for the healthcare bill

Fox could do a good job it seems...if they could ever match the video to the story... It is just a little bit strange that their honest mistakes in production always seem to favor a story that would not be true without the manipulation of video.

Fair my behind…lol

Not strange at all, given that the only people who give a shit about them are mediamatters and other leftwing organizations that have no interest in presenting any that they can't spin.

So you're saying that conservatives don't care if their news outlet is out and out fabricating stories? Did their sense of journalistic responsibility begin and end with Dan Rather.

What a silly question. Of course it did.

No, conservatives are just intelligent enough not to rally around production errors. They wait for actual evidence of negligent reporting.

Calling what Fox news has been doing a production error is like calling embezlement an arithmatic miscalculation. At the least it's shoddy journalism of the first order. At the worst, it is out and out fraud. Now I don't watch much Fox news, but I would think those of you who do would care about such things.
