Dave you are AWFUL......
That is ROFLMAO, grotesque, horrible, and mesmerizing and a number of other things, all at the same time.
Reminds me of this girl/woman/maladroit I used to work with.
GBCW...I know, I am going straight to he!!.....

D'oh! I've always associated it with the correction of a temporal paradox because of its use in early science fiction. I never heard it use by a person in "real life" until you just used it, so I never even thought about the other way the word "time" could be used in that statement.
Thanks. I feel so, "duh" now.....lol.

Thanks, Dale. Duly noted.
Boy does Fox take itself (too) seriously.
Makes me think of Chicken Little.....

There goes Dale with the facts again...It's no fun bashing anything and everything when we have to stick to facts and actualities.

Glad you mentioned this gentleman. He's a congregant of Steven Anderson's "Faithful Word Baptist Church".
Not familiar with "Reverend" Anderson? He makes Jeremiah Wright look like Ghandi -
I'm SO glad you brought this to our attention! :cheers:
Dale
ps - Why didn't Newsbusters mention this?

Deuce is watching!
Not sure you would have to ask them. But now we have Fox, MSNBC and Newsbusters reporting inaccurate news! Like I said they all do it. :shrugs:
Maybe someone should introduce Mr Wright and Mr Anderson. :grin01:
That almost sounded like a line from The Matrix movies! :spinner:

Dale, I've said it before, but I'll say it again,......Oh woe is me....what men have done over the centuries and millennia in the name of "God".........
Yes.....to me it is very frustrating and annoying to have to consciously use a sliding-rule to auto-un-skew the darned news. And I do not say that with a smile on my face or a light heart.
Near the above (tsst's video), on YouTube, I found this video below, and I am guessing "Chris" is trying to make a point not immediately obvious :

Did they mention he was "a black guy"... enough? I hate fox news, and most news sources for that matter. But it's people like that guy that really bother me. Condescending, simple minded jack@$$3$.

Why? Simply because he's pointing out that MSNBC made a big mistake just like FoxNews did?
Can anyone be more "blatantly" one-sided? If it is bad news, then it is BAD NEWS no matter where it comes from.
Why is he a " jack@$$ " and she not a "hoe who needs a bit*^ slap"?
NO OFFENSE to anyone here... just trying to make a point...

Well, I'm only commenting on him personally, as I only saw his video... but yes, he is a jack@$$. So are the people who edited the video to flip the story in their favor, but he was the only one I've seen thus far. I hate that he mentioned "black man" so many times. This guy showed up just like everyone else, so why was he specifically made a story... Oh yeah, cause he was coincidentally the only one with a mustache... hmmm...
I hate that he, and the color of his skin, is being made into some political volleyball, when race should no longer hold any political ground. This is 2009 and we still can't get past boxing people into categories based on race, partisanship, religion, etc... And this guy, in my opinion, is a jack@$$ because he is perpetuating a story in which race has become some political grounds for attacking one another.

Kinda like the most recent stuff that you MUST hate... where if you disagree with Obama, it must come from some deeply rooted racism within you. If anyone is making race an issue, it must come from the left... Just because Wilson disagreed out loud with Obama (in the WRONG way and WRONG venue IMO), he must have done it out of racism. There's a poll on FB now about Jimmy Carter saying that most disagreements with Obama must be RACE driven. HMMMMMM... What's up with that?
AND, if you disagreed with the bad news from the FoxNews guy, why aren't you disagreeing with the bad news from the MSNBC lady?
If race is to be a non-issue... then let's stop talking about race!!! But IMO, it is the left that is playing the old race card again.

When did I ever make the Joe Wilson comment a race issue? Race is an issue here obviously, and it's being played on both sides, I'm not taking sides. But when you say "black man" every other word, how the heck are you not making race an issue?

Oh, Michael, I wasn't saying YOU were... its just that others ARE. I'll try to find out who heard a phantom "boy" at the end of Wilson's "You Lie!".
Ie... "You lie, (boy)!"

Fred, I respect you as one of the most politically non-invested non-prejudiced people on this forum. And I hope I conveyed the thought I intended in the right words. In that I am complimenting and agreeing with you.
I have family,...aunts, uncles, and one grandfather still living who went though at least the most recent World War. And I listen to what they say, and what is in between the lines that they do not say.
I respect former president Carter as an elder statesman, with some accomplishments, but I find myself listening to him like I do my relatives. It is my opinion that because of his age, his era, and national history,...that he cannot objectify and see a situation or circumstance without his pre-1970's-era-tinted-glasses.
I try to empathize (from afar) with his antiquated "institutionalized white guilt" (see post #17), but I decline to be subject to it. If jews, women, blacks, and homosexuals can break the chains that fetter them to prejudice and discrimination,.......I demand every right to unburden myself of a century-plus of walking on eggshells because of institutionalized white guilt. When I can critique and criticize truly freely,.....will symbolize when we are all free from racism. And not before.
"Don't say 'black' or 'african american' too loudly or too many times" is archaic institutionalized white guilt at it's disgraceful and disgusting superlative.

Beg your pardon?
Police verify that the fight was not racially motivated....yet Dobbs and Limbaugh? They ran with it.....Limbaugh, to the point that he stated "We need segregated buses".
Evidently, Mr. Limbaugh's approach to curing racial tension is to return to the 1950s. But nope, he's not "playing the old race card again", is he?

If Rush Limbaugh even had a brain, I might could call him Satan.
But actually I suspect the real Satan is quite the intellectual. Witty. Well-read. A healthy and refined interest in the Arts.
I just couldn't insult his devilish-ness in that manner.
