Caught CNN Spinning A Black Hole Of Shit Earlier
Edited on Tue Jan-10-06 07:19 PM by Dinger
Sorry, can't help it. I figure, gotta get to know the enemy.

John King and Lou Dobbs saying that polls show that people in the U.S. don't really care that much about secret spying, AND that the Democratic senators looked bad, and blah fuckin blah.

Dobbs wasn't at his best and he "interviewed" someone and interrupted him so many times, and was so pissed, I don't even know what the guest was trying to say. However, if the guess was a right winger, good job Lou!

1. That guest was trying to say that US employers should be
allowed to hire illegals because no Americans want the jobs! He couched it behind "we need a law to make it OK" but Lou was after him big time for lying!!!!

3. It;'s circular logic.
Americans don't want the jobs because they don't pay enough. In a truly capitalistic society, employers would be forced to pay more, but in America they can just hire illegal immigrants.

2. Liars the whole damn lot of them
All the polls I've been involved with show the people on side of the democrats and these are polls in MSNBC and CNN.

7. I've noticed that myself.
You get the feeling that they're LOOKING for a "republican" answer..but keeping getting the opposite.:think:

For some reason, it never seems to change their agenda.

5. Typical
Instead of searching for the story behind the story like they were so keen on doing during Clinton they are spending all their energy trying to soften the scandal.

I still want to know if political opponents and journalists were under surveillance . . . but nobody will touch it.

6. Watching Lou Dobbs could cause one to have a stroke. We are used
to Tweety and the rest...but many DU'ers thought for a time that Dobbs was giving them the "straight scoop." Forget it...he's actually worse than the rest that we've learned to laugh at...for their idiocy.

Dobbs is a Libertarian...I could have respected him for that at one time...but look at him NOW!!!

8. The running joke in our house
is that no matter what story comes on, Lou will find a way to link it to immigration.

Mine collapse? How do our immigration policies affect mine safety?

New fashion in eyeglasses? Let's see how it's related to immigration.
