'Saturday Night Live' makes CNN rethink
'Saturday Night Live' makes CNN rethink
"There was something sort of fun about watching the folks at CNN squirm when they were asked a slightly tough question.
'Why did it take a skit on 'Saturday Night Live' to change the tone of the Democratic primary coverage?' asked a member of the Television Critics Association.
'Did it take a skit to change the coverage?' replied David Bohrman, the head of CNN's Washington bureau who heads up the network's political coverage.
Well, after an 'SNL' sketch depicted a debate in which Hillary Clinton was asked tough, unfair questions while Barack Obama was tossed softballs, things did seem to change."
Meebee the GOPers might want to exploit this proof of bias?

Detroit 3 ask up to $40 billion in loans
Detroit 3 ask up to $40 billion in loan
"Detroit's three automakers are urging Congress to make as much as $35 billion to $40 billion in low-cost loans available during the next two to three years to assure that the companies survive long enough to retool and build a new generation of fuel-efficient vehicles."
These crooks made suicide deals with big crook unions, gave themselves millions in executive bonuses and made crappy products for decades and they want the taxpayer to bail them out!!!!!?
Thank God the buggy whip companies aren't still around!

Sewer leak spews 18x more E.coli into lake
"Sanitary sewer water entered that storm sewer system after a valve failure at a nearby lift station. After the 20- or 30-year-old valve failed, sewer water leaked into the lift station's parking lot and made its way into the storm sewers."
Government screws up..... no problem.
Imagine if this was a tax paying business that filled the lake with filth!

Environmentalists' Hold on Congress
Environmentalists' Hold on Congress
"For several decades, environmentalists have managed to get Congress to keep most of our oil resources off-limits to exploration and drilling. They've managed to have the Congress enact onerous regulations that have made refinery construction impossible. Similarly, they've used the courts and Congress to completely stymie the construction of nuclear power plants. As a result, energy prices are at historical highs and threaten our economy and national security."
These enviro-nuts are at war with our American way of life.
And so are those politicians who do their evil bidding.

CBS Turns Doubled GDP into 'Disappointing' News, ABC & NBC Silent
"Second quarter Gross Domestic Product (GDP) doubled to 1.9 percent, up from 0.9 percent in the first quarter, the Commerce Department announced Thursday morning as consumer spending rose 1.5 percent in the quarter ending June 30, up from 0.9 percent in the first quarter, and U.S. exports soared 9.2 percent, way up from 5.1 percent in the first three months of 2008.
Yet the CBS Evening News centered a story around 'disappointing' news about the supposedly 'struggling economy' (with that on screen) -- while ABC and NBC, ....... didn't utter a syllable Thursday night about the big GDP jump.
No media bias in economic reporting.....yeah right......
And they wonder where their viewers went.

David Paton - Telegraph: "Paton was well aware of the dangers. In a letter to his wife, to be read in the event of his death, he wrote of facing “an ordeal from which I might never return”. He went on: “It may be of some comfort to you to know that if I go down, at least I go down in an attack, and I want you to hold your head high as I am managing to do despite my forebodings.”"

It is the most important holiday in Islam."

Global Warming Did It! Well, Maybe Not.
"Somewhere along the line, global warming became the explanation for everything. Right-thinking people are not supposed to discuss any meteorological or geophysical event -- a hurricane, a wildfire, a heat wave, a drought, a flood, a blizzard, a tornado, a lightning strike, an unfamiliar breeze, a strange tingling on the neck -- without immediately invoking the climate crisis. It causes earthquakes, plagues and backyard gardening disappointments. Weird fungus on your tomato plants? Classic sign of global warming."
