MSNBC reporting that Syrians are in Lebanon firing rockets.

[xultar]

Ahhhh ASSUME MUCH MUTHAFUCKAS!!!!!

[Igel]

1. The assumptions are rather thick on the ground recently.

I try to watch where I step but I keep having to scrape them off my shoes, and some explode and splatter everything.

And the assumptions dripping from the ceiling ...

Yick.

2. I had a brilliant teacher once who said if you do not learn anything

else from me learn to ask, "How do you know?"

3. I'd like to ask the idiot then slap him silly.

4. Is this a slam-dunk? n/t

[idgiehkt]

5. I hate you people.

I'm so sorry. I have no more cable news. I am dying here. This is torture. I can barely get MSNBC, looks like a blizzard. I used to be able to hear it but there is no sound. I fear turning into a 'murikan' with no news like this.

I want tv on demand through my computer NOW!.

7. i don`t watch any tv news--everything is on the net

both sides of the story whether it be "the good, the bad, and the ugly" can be found on the net. it`s all there right in front of you. google is the new "Library of Alexandria"

10. There is no real news on cable. It's all on the net. n/t

[madrchsod]

6. msnbc

now that is a another creditable source. funny how all this info is breaking today on the major news networks while the un is voting and the usa is going to allow 14 more days of carnage on both sides. if the idf and the americans think that they can break the Lebanese people i suggest that they have forgotten the lesson of viet nam and several other wars in the last 60 years.
i take it the syrians have big letters on their shirts saying--"visit damascus"

8. What I saw was military pundit who was speculating, not a MSNBC news

report. A military pundit pulling stuff out of his ass is not the same as "MSNBC reporting."

[xultar]

11. He didn't say he was speculating.

[Bretttido]

12. The majority of cable news is an opinion or speculation

so pointing that out would be redundant.

[QuestionAll...]

13. haven't seen this, but...

was the pundit challenged at all?

"Are you pulling stuff outta yer ass, Mr. Pundit?"

if the 'reporter' allowed this to go unchallenged and without proof, they may as well have said this themselves. That's the way it works and is meant.

btw, Syria knows it's in the crosshairs, so would this really be so unbelievable? ... the famous 'fight them over there so we don't have to fight them over here' thing...

[RagAss]

14. A "paid" military pundit

9. Dick Cheney must be ecstatic.n/t
