Lying under oath is lying under oath. There is no difference. There is no "fibber scale" when it comes to perjury, measuring how "bad" the lie is. Regarding the "outing", Im STILL trying to fiugre out how a woman who drove to CIA Headquarters in a flashy convertible with the top down, walking into the building's front door day after day, got "outed" as an agent.

double standard in main stream media?
RkFast replied to jimshiz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
And this is different from her ilk on the other side of the aisle HOW? Just this morning in the SAME CONVERSATION, Don Imus was calling Bush a bunch of derogatory names, and then he goes on to blast Coulter for her act. I mean...do these people even HEAR what they spew???!!!??? To use another analogy, its like a guy doing 110 on the Thruway complaining about the guy who just passed him doing 125. -

Maher has got a TV show seen by millions. He brings on a who's who of political commentators and pundits week after week. He ability to play the "Im just a single comedian" really doesnt float anymore. Frankyl I cant WAIT to see his show Friday. First of all, he's close with Coulter. Second, what he calls Bush and anyone to the right of pretty much Ramsey Clark makes Coulter's commentary look tame. On another note, people on DailyKos are leading the charge to have Coulter silenced. As if THEY are the bastion of rational, civil politcal commentary. sh--, thats like Mickey D's leading the charge against obesity. -

Some good about people who say "Yeah, thats right!" when asked if they really MEANT what they said. -
Good point! Here is what I dont get about this situation. Especially since 2003, We have seen a steady stream of politicos, pundits, Tom, Dicks and Harrys going to Walter Reed for morale tours and what not. Never have we heard anything but glowing accounts of their experiences at the Hospital. All of sudden, the place is a (literally) rat hole?

Aw come on....it was a.......ready?.....here it comes... BOTCHED JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, I think whats she said was terrible. The GOP is looking to paint itself as the party AOBVE this stuff. Then she goes aqnd throws this out there and sets the whole movement back five steps. To appease the rest who KNOW Id be all over this story, here is yer "dose of hypocrisy"..... I find it comical, if not pathetic that GLAAD...ya know them....The organization that fights so hard to lash out against bad gay stereotypes, blasts Coulter for her comments and goes on to paint every member of the GOP with the same brush, as a bunch of homophobes. "Ann Coulter's use of this anti-gay slur is vile and unacceptable," said Neil G. Giuliano, president of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, "and the applause from her audience is an important reminder that Coulter's ugly brand of bigotry is at the root of the discriminatory policies being promoted at this gathering." And of course, while he almost HAD TO react, considering Edwards is barely getting himself together after what happened with his bloggers, he really should tone down his response a bit. At the end of the day, it seems both events got about the same response. And Edwards IS a.......candy-ass. -
Iran and Saudi Arabia Talking
RkFast replied to molson_golden2002's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I know, I know. Both Germany and "The Japs" (thanks, 'Ben Franklin') had their ownreasons for entering WWII. But I use this analogy to smash MG's wonderful assertion that nations hostile to US interests is a GOOD thing. -

Americans Want More Government!
RkFast replied to molson_golden2002's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
"Americans showed a striking willingness in the poll to make tradeoffs to guarantee health insurance for all, including paying as much as $500 more in taxes a year and forgoing future tax cuts. " $500 doesnt come CLOSE to the increase in taxes we would pay for a Nationalized system of health care! Talk about a flawed poll. Now...NYT and whomever else is trotting out this RIDICULOUS notion of "guaranteed" health care....Go ask the folks if they would support it if the REAL cost of it is taken into consideration. -
Toyota to open a new plant in Mississippi

My Acura's got 175,000 on the clock, original clutch and I've had ZERO issues. -
Lets be honest....which of the candidates "do it" for you? Which ones do you look at and say..."yeah....s/he could be President."

Japsanese? That a new way to cook rice or something? -
Bush says "hello" and people go nuts. But a guy who controls a huge supply of the Worlds oil and will have nukes in the next ten years can say things like ""The Zionists are the true manifestation of Satan" and it barely...check that DOESNT even merit a mention...from CNN!!!! Im sorry...thats !@#$ing SCARY.

There is some of that, sure. But comparisons MUST be made when we, as a nation are lambasted for actions that would'nt even raise an eyebrow when conducted by rest of the world. We MUST as a Nation point out this hypocrisy.

A bunch of "little Eichmanns", right? Thanks, HBO for my daily dose of American self-loathing and Bush Bashing. Next time an IED kills five soldiers along with 20 innocent Iraqi women and children, Ill remember to REdirect my "outrage" to the fact some Iraqi man had to walk around with a pair of underwear on his head or had to have cold rice pilaf while in GTMO. Yeah, yeah....I know.."we started it." Just like when Achmeninutjob tries to implement a blockade across the Strait of Hormuz THAT will be our fault, too...becuase...ya know..."we provoked him."

Always wondered how the US auto workers got such a bad rep...when whats often referred to as one of the best, most reliable cars, the Accord, is assembled in Ohio. Im assuming the JapANESE process is superior to "ours". -
This ranks right up there with the whole "outrage" over referring to computer hard drives as "slaves" or "masters."
