I gotta admit, I don't see what CBS is doing lumped in with MSNBC and MTV. CBS news is actually pretty decent. I'm not sure what MTV is any more and MSNBC is like the reverse image of FOX except MSNBC doesn't pretend to be balanced. Maybe he isn't aware that Dan Rather retired?
You've mostly hit the truth here. The fact is that the people who slag off on Beck are the enemy of most of his followers as well as Beck. The more these people decry him the more his fan club loves him. I know he's paranoid and wacky but when the liberal elite snap back at him practically foaming at the mouth it makes even me want to defend him. It's kind of an "enemy of my enemy" thing. I know the people that hate him also hate me. Even more so do Beck's fans. The more they attack him the stronger he'll get. I can't really stomach Beck's show even so. He's just so preachy and over the top. Even when I agree with his point he's just too much. He makes Limbaugh seem taciturn.
Hey! Just cause I like the Constitution doesn't mean I'm a follower of Beck. I'm more of a Ron Paul fan. The only real threat from the government is they may tax us to death. They're too incompetent to do much else.
Yes. All those rich republicans standing in line at the health department. Sure. I think I saw Donald Trump getting his food stamps in line just ahead of Steve Forbes.
This is exactly true. When things go wrong with the vehicle most people freak out and do stupid things. I think that I don't because I always had piece of shit cars that were constantly breaking when I was younger and had to know how to get them off the road. My dad mentioned the brakes going out on an old jalopy he had back in the 50's and how he rode down a hedge of boxwoods on the side of the road to get it to stop. Sometimes you have to realize that slight damage to the car is preferable to death.
I've wondered that myself. Considering most of the true idiots I see on the road are mostly driving Honda Civics, that's where I'd expect to find the problem. Note I do not say Honda drivers are idiots, only that for some reason the civic attracts more than it's fair share.
Actually the F-16 had an inordinate number of problems. Unfortunately since it's a single engine fighter (idiotic) these generally resulted in lost hardware. We nicknamed it "the lawn dart."
They have a vested interest in finding the cause....just not in making it public. Certainly in any system that relies on computer control glitches are possible. Finding an obscure bug can be next to impossible.
Seriously though, while in Hawaii a few...hmmmm.....over a decade ago, I noticed they had all these huge windmills on Oahu. They didn't seem to be working too well so I asked about them. It seems that when they got the bright idea to put them up the didn't think about the trade winds carrying all that salt. It seems salt is very bad for machinery, to the point that the operating costs exceeded the price of the electricity they generated. So at least I hope that they've thought about this problem with offshore units. Of course, if the government is involved it's very likely that no thought at all has gone into it.
Tech marches on. I notice that my 47" LCD HDTV uses much less energy than my 32" CRT television did. It weighs a hell of a lot less too. You'd think with all these new devices that use less power than the old stuff that eventually things would at least stop getting worse.
You know it's amazing what a moron you are. Because I disagree with you or don't worship Obama and Pelosi I must be a Republican? Geez! The fact is that I've stated....many times...that I think Palin is nutty and I'm not fond of most of the Repubs either. This is the problem with American Politics, everyone has their side, D or R and if anyone disagrees with them they must be on the other side. I have my side. My side is I'm tired of the ass fucking I get from BOTH sides. I want the fuckers out of my wallet. I'm sick of more and more and more and more money thrown at every problem and it just gets wasted. It's not just the Dems, when W was in there he found plenty of ways for his cronies to milk the cow just like the current figurehead is doing for his bunch. It needs to stop but you morons keep thinking that if only everyone would listen to your side it would all get better. Wise up! The 2 party shuffle is killing us. Yes, Boner is just more BS. We go from one scam artist to another. Palin is not a problem for me because she holds no office. Why waste all this hatred on someone off making money doing reality shows when we have all these clowns in congress finding ways to piss away trillions of dollars? Ah well....you keep blaming FOX news and Palin for all your problems. When the country finally runs out of money I wonder what you'll do then? Maybe you'll think about how you kept falling for the same ole shell game...nah....you'll blame a goofy ex governor and mean ole FOX news for stealing it all. Stay Anonymous there coward. No one can figure out what an ignorant little shit you are that way.
It's starting to look like Apple has set the bar too high for it's competitors in the pad market. Everything is starting to look like cheap junk or else it has problems with costing about what the iPad does or even more. For once it seems that Apples price point may actually not be massively outrageous as usual. Also all the guys with droid phones at work are starting to notice that the guys who have iphones have systems that work smoother. A couple have even stated they plan to get an iphone as soon as they can now that it's available on verizon. The ipads I've seen are the same way. Everything just flows. There's more to making a system work than throwing hardware together and hacking some software together.
I can't think of similar stunts from any FOX anchors. No actors posing as real people or word documents traveling back in time. Go on and point one out for me. I'm open minded. I never said FOX wasn't biased. I said they weren't alone and no one really seemed to much give a shit about the major news outlets playing fast and loose with the truth until FOX showed up.
I'm glad your amused.:) I don't think you read my other posts dimwit or you'd see that I don't adore Palin. In fact she seems like a nut to me. It's just hard to believe that she's so hated. She's really done mostly nothing other than be governor of Alaska and run for VP of the USA. Meanwhile we've got certified nutcases like Pelosi steadily helping fuck the country up, a whole congress of them from both sides of the aisle. Yeah I'm no Palin fan but she ain't the one putting the fucking on me right now....that nasty cunt Pelosi and her cronies in congress and her man Obama in the White House. I wish to hell Pelosi would quit politics and take her ass out to the desert in Cali for her own reality show. Have a nice day and stay anonymous there stupid.
Really? Dan stepped on his pecker multiple times. The final straw was the word document from the time of typewriters. The loss of credibility was just too great and it was time for his old ass to retire anyway. I'm old enough to remember the time he used actors for an anti hunting piece he did before he became anchor at CBS. It was only a foretaste of what was to come when Cronkite retired and Dan assumed the anchor desk. After years of tainted and twisted "journalism" now the left raises hell about FOX news turning the tables on them. I guess if they don't like it they can always file suit and claim prior art.
You don't get it do you? Have you ever noticed the twisted lies that NBC and ABC throw around...or CBS when Dan Rather was at the helm? The days when their was just plain, straight factual reporting are gone. Everybody lets their ideology taint their reporting now.
Ah! I didn't know that. It's gotten to the point that Pelosi could be trademarked too. Nothing tops "We've got to pass it to find out what's in it." It just doesn't get any better than that.

Damn you coward! You're using logic on slashdot and you know that's against the rules.

And people say Beck is a nut job!
That is the very definition of nonsense. What a contradictory load of gibberish. Reread that drivel when you come down from whatever you're on.
Yes, to debunk Christianity one must make up stuff.

The same actually. 2 I can only watch one at a time but sometimes my wife hogs the big one.
I was under the impression that the oil companies were into alternative energy as well. They're looking for the next market to corner.
I hadn't thought about that part. I'm for anything that will help do something about the damn seagulls.
