Ok, point of football information:

1- Did any of you watch ESPN College Gameday yesterday?

2- Did anyone who watched ESPN College Gameday notice the signs behind the camera?

3- If you watched and paid attention to the signs, did you see "I QUIT MY JOB. THAT'S OK, BAMA WILL TAKE CARE OF ME."

I thought that was silly and odd at first, but figured "Well, he's betting for/against Alabama, so that'll get him money like his job used to."

Then, I see the sign later in the broadcast. "BAMA," as it turns out, was "OBAMA" with the Texas Fair winds covering up the sign's "O."

He should have kept it as "BAMA." Much funnier :D

Oh please.

What is your guys' message? Change! WTF that means. A chicken in every pot and freebies for all. Same old populist drivel warmed over and repackaged.

BHO just lacks the midget with a miniature broom Homer Stokes had in Oh Brother.

I suspect if BHO wins, he'll eventually be run out of town on a rail because he won't be able to deliver on any of it. He's already backpedaling on universal healthcare thank goodness.

If he does manage to win, I'll support him as my president, but I do hope he doesn't try to do too much too fast. I still remember the last Populist presidential administration, which was a complete disaster.

See 85, that's the deal. Neg me again for soiling your thread here or whatever. Hannity doesn't really inform anyone. He'll tell you things that you'll believe because you want to. He'll tell me things that I can easily dismiss. Neither he, nor his show, what most folks watch to learn anything.

Like when I listen to Democracy Now-The War and Peace Report on NPR. I know it's liberal hacks then. And I take it with a grain of salt.
I'll probably skim the transcript, but not watch the whole show because Hannity hasn't had a show yet that I thought was a good investment of my time. It's like an informercial. He really wants me to buy what he's selling. And I know it's crap that I'm better off without.

That's the deal with both guys right now. Neither guy is going to be able to deliver much. McCain isn't able to tax-cut the country to financial solvency and Obama isn't able to spend much on his programs.

Until the bailout and war are paid for, neither should be done either, IMO.

And it pi$$es me off. We don't have the $$ to do good things for the country like fix SS or Medicare, but we still pay for AIG junkets. Ridiculous.

Dead on, Rogue. The problem with pundits is they are essentially entertainers, so they feed their audiences what they want to hear, so they will keep tuning in and the pundits can sell ads and their shows and make money. People like Hannity and Limbaugh will always have a right wing take on an issue, and will always come up some great revelation which stirs up their conservative audiences, because they know these folks eat it up. It might be fun and entertaining to listen if you a right winger, but don't ever think it is serious journalism. Serious journalism can be dry and complex, and it takes patience and requires one to discern truths, so some would rather have it quick, dirty, and entertaining, shoveled in their mouths like a fast food Happy Meal.

I don't understand how some of you people blow off the Ayers realtionship:

Of the day he bombed the Pentagon, Ayers says, “Everything was absolutely ideal. ... The sky was blue. The birds were singing. And the bastards were finally going to get what was coming to them.”
On another occasion, Ayers stated: “There’s something about a good bomb … Night after night, day after day, each majestic scene I witnessed was so terrible and so unexpected that no city would ever again stand innocently fixed in my mind. Big buildings and wide streets, cement and steel were no longer permanent. They, too, were fragile and destructible. A torch, a bomb, a strong enough wind, and they, too, would come undone or get knocked down.”
All told, Ayers and Weatherman were responsible for 30 bombings aimed at destroying the defense and security infrastructures of the U.S. “I don’t regret setting bombs, said Ayers in 2001, “I feel we didn’t do enough.”
In 1970, Ayers’ then-girlfriend Diana Oughton, along with Weatherman members Terry Robbins and Ted Gold, were killed when a bomb they were constructing exploded unexpectedly. That bomb had been intended for detonation at a dance that was to be attended by army soldiers at Fort Dix, New Jersey. Hundreds of lives could have been lost had the plan been successfully executed. Ayers attested that the bomb would have done serious damage, “tearing through windows and walls and, yes, people too.”
After the death of his girlfriend, Ayers and his current wife, Bernardine Dohrn, spent the 1970s as fugitives running from the FBI. In 1980 the two surrendered, but all charges against them were dropped due to an “improper surveillance” technicality. Ayers’ comment on his life, as reported by Peter Collier and David Horowitz in their authoritative chapter on Weatherman in Destructive Generation, is this: “Guilty as sin, free as a bird, America is a great country.”
Notwithstanding his violent past, Ayers today does not describe himself as a terrorist. “Terrorists destroy randomly,” he reasons, “while our actions bore ... the precise stamp of a cut diamond. Terrorists intimidate, while we aimed only to educate.”
In Fugitive Days, Ayers reflects on whether or not he might use bombs against the U.S. in the future. “I can’t imagine entirely dismissing the possibility,” he writes.

BHO launches his political career in Ayers' living room
BHO's wife works 10 years before that in same law office as Ayers' wife

Ayers and Obama served on separate boards associated with the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, an education-reform group that Obama began chairing in March 1995 and continued to work with through 2000. Ayers served on the Chicago School Reform Collaborative, which made recommendations to the board on grant awards during those years. Ayers and Obama occasionally would see each other in those roles.

Also, Ayers served alongside Obama between December 1999 and December 2002 on the board of the not-for-profit Woods Fund of Chicago. That board met four times a year, and members would see each other at dinners the group hosted.

The RNC's statement that "Obama's first campaign was launched at a gathering at Mr. Ayers' home" stems from a 1995 "meet-and-greet" coffee that Ayers and Dohrn held for Obama at their home when Obama was making his first run for the Illinois Senate. Obama's presidential campaign has described the event as an opportunity for Ayers and Dohrn to introduce Obama to their neighbors.


The Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC) was a Chicago public school reform project from 1995 to 2001 that worked with half of Chicago's public schools and was funded by a $49.2 million, 2-to-1 matching challenge grant over five years from the Annenberg Foundation. The grant was contingent on being matched by $49.2 million in private donations and $49.2 million in public money.[1] The Chicago Annenberg Challenge was one of 18 locally designed Annenberg Challenge project sites that received $387 million over five years as part of Walter Annenberg's gift of $500 million over five years to support public school reform. The Chicago Annenberg Challenge helped create a successor organization, the Chicago Public Education Fund (CPEF), committing $2 million in June 1998 as the first donor to Chicago's first community foundation for education.

Thats how

Oh, and just for ****s and giggles


On Wednesday morning, John McCain's campaign released a list of 100 former ambassadors endorsing the GOP presidential nominee.

Second on the list, though her name is misspelled, is Leonore Annenberg, currently the president and chairman of the Annenberg Foundation and widow of ambassador and philanthropist Walter Annenberg. Ms. Annenberg was herself the "chief of protocol" at the State Department under President Reagan.

Ku Klux Klan (KKK) is the name of several past and present secret domestic terrorist organizations in the United States, generally in the southern states, that are best known for advocating white supremacy and acting as vigilantes while hidden behind conical masks and white robes. The KKK has a record of terrorism, violence, and lynching to intimidate and oppress African Americans, Jews, and Roman Catholics during periods of turmoil.

http://blogs.knoxnews.com/knx/silence/archives/2008/07/what_is_obamas.shtml

Stopping terrorism requires police work. Stopping domestic terrorism requires police work State-side.

The military is prohibited from doing police work State-side. Ergo, we need a strong, capable police force if you really want to stop domestic terrorism.

Of course, there's a reason why the military is prohibited from doing police work State-side. And it's a good reason -- essentially the same issue as you're implying with your post.

Rhetorical Question: Are you willing to suffer a higher risk of successfully executed domestic terrorism to stop from having too strong of a police force? Or will you suffer a stronger police force to stop domestic terrorism?

Damn folks. Check it out then comment. F'in know it alls

Better to be an informed idiot than an ignorant one yes?Sean Hannity is an ignorant idiot.

I'm afraid this will do more damage to McCain's chances. I can hear him issuing a statement distancing himself from Sean Hannity's "reporting" already. McCain needs smart, informed supporters. Not knee jerk reactionaries who spread hatred and fear without any basis in fact.

It's the lowest common denominator.

What a doosh...

I can not watch the show since it's hosted by Hannity. I was once a huge Hannity fan. I watched his TV show, listened to him on the radio, etc. Over time, I realized the guy is just a hack without an original thought in his head. Honest to God, the dude just says the SAME **** over and over and over again. There's nothing original about him. There's nothing in what he presents that makes me think critically on any issue.

Watching Hannity is simply mental masturbation for conservatives who can't do their own analyzing err reading the latest GOP talking points themselves. I'm sorry if that sounds rude or elitist, and I don't mean to insult anyone but for God's sake...Sean Hannity? You have to be kidding.

By the way...about the "source":


Sean Hannity graduated in 1980 from St. Pius X Preparatory Seminary (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Pius_X_Preparatory_Seminary) high school, located in Uniondale (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniondale,_New_York), New York (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York). Described as "an indifferent student",[4] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Hannity#cite_note-autogenerated1-3) Hannity dropped out of New York University (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_University) for financial reasons and later decided to pursue a radio career.[3] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Hannity#cite_note-rightfielder-2) In 2005, Jerry Falwell (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Falwell), chancellor of Liberty University (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_University) awarded him an honorary degree.[5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Hannity#cite_note-4)
That's right...he's only got an honorary college degree...FROM JERRY FALWELL. :rolleyes:

I can't really stand Hannity either but I am not sure a college degree is the best way to talk down about him.

A college degree isn't required to be successful in media.

I don't have a college degree.

And the citizens of Tulsa entrust me with their lives. Am I deserving an eyeroll?

While flipping around various stations tonight, I came across the Hannity show in which he was giving a very serious interview with Ted Nugent, the Motor City Madman, in which they discussed quotes from Obama and analyzed their meanings and gave their opinions.

If this is not enough to make one realize Hannity should not be taken seriously, I don't know what is.

You don't like the Nuge? I figure he's as legit as the Hollywood lefties we hear from all the time.

I frankly don't want to see any entertainer being treated as an expert in politics or social issues. Any show which does this, whether it be Hannity or Larry King, cannot be taken seriously. Who cares what Morgan Fairchild thinks of Clinton's policies, or what Ted Nugent feels about Obama? Maybe Karl Rove should be the host of the Oscars so he can discuss who he thinks might win, and comment on how the stars are dressed.

"Celebrities" have as much right as assclowns like Bill O'Reilly or Rush Limbaugh--as if they're not celebrities?--to express their opinions. Being a celebrity doesn't mean you're any less right (or wrong) about current affairs than anybody else.

Yes, in the beginning, Ronaldus Maximus (peace be upon him) was merely an actor. He delivered a speech at Barry Goldwater's nomination duing the 1964 GOP convention and rocketed to political stardom.

Instead of running for president on the strength of that speech, like someone in the current presidential race, RR was the wildly popular and successful leader of one of the world's largest economies as a two term governor of California before running for the White House.

Walter Cronkite, Peter Jennings, Rush Limbaugh and Larry KingI'd leave Rush Limbaugh off that list. He's just as much of an uninformed hack.

The other three, however, didn't make a living pretending to be smarter than everyone they interviewed and talk down to them in insulting and attacking ways. Like Hannity and Limbaugh do.

And the citizens of Tulsa entrust me with their lives. Am I deserving an eyeroll?Certainly not. And I'm glad they do. But you don't make a living talking down to people because of how smart you think you are, do you?
