Watched a number of interviews with WH spin courtiers yesterday, and noted that not only do they want to control Fox and the news items they report – but also vet who can appear on the network’s shows. Karl Rove and Dick Morris seem to be a favourite target. The WH apologists are spinning like crazy. So my question is this, if they are unable to limit the opinions of these and others, what’s next?

Let it be said rob misek that I don’t believe what you said is true but to engage in that debate is well beyond the scope of this post.

Joe,

Relax and read the whole post a couple of times before you respond.

You clearly misunderstood.

I’ve had many online arguments with liberals who don’t believe in right and wrong.

In my previous post, I attempted to demonstrate the fault in that logic, therefore wrong, just like you have in your own unique way.

I think we’re on the same page.

rob misek yer jokin’ right? If not that is one load of codswallop you just dumped all over this posting. Right and Wrong are just figaments of our over active imagination?? How long do you think you would be alive if it were not wrong to kill you and over whatever you have?

It most definitely is a right vs wrong issue. Every conflict throughout history always has been.

The far left believe that right and wrong are arbitrary concepts.

The far right believe that they are defined by their religious texts.

Both are wrong as I will now demonstrate.

Logically if right and wrong could be changed arbitrarily, they could have contradictory definitions, and therefore be meaningless. Right and wrong must be absolute to have any meaning at all. As absolute they are defined by the truth.

Logically if we define the truth by our beliefs alone, without demonstration, the truth could also have contradictory definitions and also become meaningless. We can believe in God with faith but we cannot claim that our belief is the truth.

The truth is the only thing we will all ever share.

Right vs. Wrong. I like that. And it’s so true. We have those issues in Canada, too.

I believe it is Beck who says it is no longer a Left vs Right conflict. It is now a Right vs Wrong conflict. He has stated what I also believe that, “Many on the Right are as corrupt and corrupting as the many on the Left”.

Check out Drudge, -paper, excuses wearing thin. There is a poll there asking about O,s job approval, 95% say they do not approve. Over 8000 had voted a while ago.

Fox represents the extreme right.

A statement based on pure ignorance.

Re#8. Exactly right. Those who have actually been paying attention have heard Beck and others on Fox slamming both Dems and the GOP big time. Both sides lumped into the same pile of crap that American politics has turned into and which is responsible for the current mess in that country.

It is a re-emergence of the conservative movement, and standing up for the constitution. It is not a dem vs. repub thing. It conservative vs. virulent progressivism.

Watch for Sarah Palin lead the re-emergence and don’t think those in both parties aren’t aware of that distinct possibility and are literally scared sh**tless that it might come to pass. If it does both sides of the house know the gig is up for them. Like Beck says, throw the bums out, all of them.

And just because the guy who’s doing the investigating is a little pudgy and acts a little nuts sometimes doesn’t mean the stuff he’s finding isn’t true! Every day he begs BEGS for people to prove him wrong. He doesn’t want to believe what he’s finding!

I’m sure many independents who voted for O are wondering why he has so many far-left nutbags surrounding him. Daily the list gets bigger and the stuff dug up gets weirder.

Critics should remember that Fox News gets about 50% of its viewership from Dems and Independents. It’s not all conservatives watching. And their viewership is growing by leaps and bounds.

I think that frightens the crap out of the administration. If it was just “rednecks and tea partiers” watching they wouldn’t give a damn. You can see they are worried by the way they are reacting – what Rahm Emanuel and Axelrod said the other day.

and judging by Glenn Beck’s last couple of shows, he’s having a field day with it. Good for him.

FYI, I listen to an a.m. station out of Bellingham, WA. (KGMI). Their morning show co-host Patti Brooks was lucky to get an interview with him when he went back to WA to speak at Safeco field. He gave her a hug and she could feel that he was wearing a bullet-proof vest under his dress-shirt.

So there is every reason for Glenn to not do this stuff. Obviously he’s getting threats. Why on earth would he make anything up? For the fun of getting death threats? I think not.
