9. That the so called "liberal media"
is not liberal

and while it is an assortment of media, it doesn't report news so much anymore as a whole.

There are good pockets of the media, and some liberal forums within the mass media

compared to European media--- we look like we have mostly John Birch style media here (by contrast, not necessarily content)

:shrug:

17. I think that one belongs in the "Proof that GOD doesn't exist" thread.
Or perhaps we need a:
"GOD might/might not exist, but here's PROOF that
he doesn't give a shit about us"
thread?

19. Idaho is the only state in the Union that no foreign flag ever flew over!

34. And a WEST virgin, whatever the hell that is!
One of my favorite images from "Futurama" was from
the "Bendin' in the Wind" episode that showed a map
of the USA in the year 3000...

A certain pair of States (which shall remain nameless)
were labeled "West Virginia" and "EAST West Virginia".

Truth in jest...is just the best! :rofl:
