HereComesTheReignAgain

Today I got to hear about Lou Gosset Jr. movies and a comparison of TO's website songs! I just got Sirius and listen to the NFL channel all the time. Much better than WGR even though there is not much on the Bills. Still more Bills news than WGR though. The station seems to get worse every day.

Do you really want to compare mistakes? Let's look at this post. "Whoa is me. I'm sure you'll send a check to your local Planned Parenthood charity. Won't someone please lobby the government to provide me a new Z06, because I'd be a less of a boon to society if I had one." I think you meant, woe is me, not whoa. And a boon is a benefit, not something negative. My mistakes were typos, but at least I know what the words I use mean. Thanks for your two cents though!

Before questioning my intellect, please proofread your post.

You may really be the most annoying, least inteligent person I have ever tried to comunicate with. This will be my last response to you because you obviously have no interest in actually reading what I write, but would rather rewrite it after twisting all my words around. I never said we should pick and choose who gets free service at a health clinic. I have no fascination with crack whores, it was simply an attempt at a humorous slogan. Government should not provide these services in most instances. If you would like to buy condoms for the poor, by all means buy them. Set up a privately funded clinic and save the world. In fact I hear Canada has a great helath care system, since the mean old government here doesn't care about people, move there. Wait 6 months to get an appointment for anything that is not life threatining and enjoy the benefits of universal medical coverage. As far as helping people get health insurance, how many people has your moronic babble helped. Stop bitching about all the poor victims and help them find jobs. If you really want to change minds, you should really start listening to what people say, not just hearing what you want to hear. Just my opinion, but if you would rather fill your time posting more "so your saying..." posts go ahead.

OK meathead. If you really think I said that every woman who goes to the clinic is a crack whore , you must not be too bright. Just like all the women at the clinic are not sweet women who just need some advice before considering kissing their boyfriend for the first time, some of the women are not upstanding citizens. Are you really that dense or just like the rest of the dopey Liberals who can turn any part of a sentence into whatever they want to hear? It's like dealing with a five year old! So you're saying that since the lines outside public health clinics are long that we should shut them all down? (A little Mickey logic for you there) I sell health insurance and securities for a living and speak to the people you claim to speak for. I am doing much more to help insure the uninsured and educate people on the need for health insurance than you could possibly wrap your cloudy little head around. Bush's HSA accounts are a great way to ease the cost of insurance and encourage retirement savings. Unlike you and most of the other Liberals I do something about the problems in America, instead of just throwing money at it and protesting.

That's exactly what I mean. When the top politician in a state enjoys embarassing big business it tends to hurt the chances of reeling in companies that are being recruited by many other states. It's fine when you are the AG of the state, but not when you are Governor.

Actually condoms only save money if you assume we should pay for the medical care of someone who is sick due to their own irresponsible act and also uninsured. If I don't have collision insurance on my car I'm not going to enter a demolition derby and expect you to pay for it. You really underestimate the number of people in this country who are truly fed up with Government handouts. A big reason the Democrats and liberals are losing ground in this country is because you want to make victims out of everyone. We all know people who take advantage of the handouts. We see the spoiled trust fund kids who travel the country protesting everything and we have grown tired of it. We don't want to be told what to do by a bunch of egotistical celebrities that wouldn't know morals if it kicked them in the @ss. The majority of Americans are hard working people that would only take a handout if it was a last resort. I guess the next step is labeling poorness as a disease so you can start suing people for discrimination. "you can't refuse to give me that Cadilac...I'm a pooraholic". I'd love for the Democrats to have a platform! maybe "eff the worker" or "Helping crack-whores get condoms and drug treatment on you dime" or "screw the job interview, stay home and have more sex with your free condoms, why work when a Conservative can do it for you."

Here is all the family planning that someone too poor to buy birth control needs...Don't have kids! Not a whole lot of planning there huh? Lot's of people go extended periods of time without having sex. Just because it is not the easiest solution doesn't mean it's not the right solution. I know everyone is a victim in your world, but many poor people do deserve to be poor. You want to skip school to smoke and drink and hang out? Fine, but don't expect the workers of this country to support you when you parents kick you out. You want to dress and speak like you favorite rapper? fine, but don't complain when the only job you can get is fast food minimum wage.

Most corporations don't want to come to a state run by a guy who gets off on the publicity that comes with suing big bad corporations. He doesn't just press charges against the company, he does it in the most flamboyant, public, "look at me" manner possible. If he was a cop you would be crying about police brutality! When a union comits a crime that affects many more people than any corporate scandal, he has no interest in punishing them. There is no good press in punishing a conductor or ticket window attendant. "Come to New York where jobs and businesses are as rare as common sense!"

Tax breaks are not the same as welfare! With a tax break, you are allowing someone to keep more of their hard earned money. With welfare you are taking a workers money and giving it to someone else. Sex is not necessary to live, if you can't afford to do it safely, don't do it. This is just part of a much bigger problem with handouts in this country.

You are actually comparing vaccinating little kids with supplying free birth control and vd clinics for people who supposedly won't be able to afford condoms for themselves?! If you really can't afford the condom or the kid, don't have sex! You seem to forget that option. I know, you can't deny the poor anything just because they can't afford it...I can't afford to do a lot of the things that I enjoy, should you be forced to pay for that too?

To the poster who suggested that the poor are lazy and enjoy being poor, that is one of the most ignorant things I have ever seen posted in this forum. Where exactly did I say they enjoy being poor? I said the choices they made in life led to them being poor in the vast majority of cases. How many times have you seen someone at the food store spend their cash on beer and cigarettes and their food stamps on food? Are you really telling me that anyone with even below average inteligence can't work hard enough to graduate from high school and find a job that pays above minimum wage? If education is not your thing, find a skill and work hard at it. It is certainly possible to distinguish yourself from the crowd with hard work and respect. Minimum wage was never intended to provide enough income to raise a family. Why do you deserve to make a good living just because you spend 30-40 hours a week doing a job a 15 year old kid can do? If you don't have any skills or education or cannot hold down a job long enough to get a raise, then work 2 jobs and buy what you want with your own money...not mine. Don't tell me minimum wage is too low when I can't get a correct order at mcdonalds let alone anything that resembles good, polite service. Ignorance would be thinking that increasing government handouts and forcing pay increases beyond what the market supports will help the economy or fix the poverty problem.

I can just imagine the scene at the clinic..."well Cletus, I would have used a condom, but the evil Government won't pay for my condoms, beer, and cigarettes so I guess I don't have a choice. I'm sure as hell not giving up my scratch offs or budwieser so I guess I'll have to have some more unwanted children. Hey at least the Government will give me $500 for each brat the wife pops out! Maybe I could sell my food stamps and WIC checks while collecting unemployment and welfare due to this horrible back injury that keeps me from working, but for some reason doesn't affect my softball prowess." If you really manage to screw up your life so bad that you can't afford contraceptives and basic necessities, you are either incredibly lazy or incredibly unfortunate. The vast majority fall into the lazy catagory. Everyone in this country gets a free High School education and the opportunity for college through scholarships or Government aid. Most people living in poverty chose that lifestyle at some point in their life. Whether it was in high school or in their 30's. Increasing the number of handouts doesn't solve the problem, it just perpetuates the victim mentallity so prevalent in this country.

If you think New York is hurting for jobs now, wait until Spitzer is elected and tries to sue every big company out of existence. It is funny how the most blatant act of illegal business practice went virtually unpunished in NY. The transit workers strike was illegal and caused huge financial losses, much more so than many of the other businesses that Spitzer went after. Because he needs the Union votes, the whole debacle seemed to disappear and all was forgiven. I don't remember hearing that any of the fines were actually enforced and you certainly didn't hear Spitzer spewing his normal self rightous babble about protecting us from all that is wrong in corporate America. NY politicians always pretend to care about Upstate NY prior to elections. Hillary toured Upstate and made all kinds of promises. I know, all politicians pull ths stunt. We'll see what happens once he is elected.

Thank you for proving my point about the media turning a nice moment into a negative stroy. It's always funny to hear groups that rely on getting free $ from the government complaining that they don't get enough free $. I bet the top executives for many of these "not for profit" organizations are making a fortune (and taking $ away from Autistic children). Let's not forget that Mediciad is a welfare program. Be happy that you are recieving money from the hard working people of this country. Just because I work hard and plan ahead doesn't necessarily mean someone else deserves my $. If there are things that health insurance won't cover, then by all means use medicare and medicaid. If you had children without first having health insurance and the income to support them I don't feel much sympathy for you. I feel sympathy for the children. Nobody plans for Autism when having a child and I understand the need for things like special programs at schools. Let's hold the Schools accountable for the millions they waste already and the outrageous buyouts they give to incompetent administrators. ie: Greece and Rochester.

The point is that they can report both good and bad if they wanted to. How hard is it to understand that concept? Nobody is saying we should be shielded from any bad news, just give us the whole story. For every bit of "confident rhetoric" from the right there is just as much negative rhetoric from the left. I guess I would rather be confident than negative all the time, but that's the difference between Liberals and Conservatives. Annoy a Liberal...work hard, succeed, be happy.

In order for Georgia to be The Bills of the superbowl years, wouldn't they have to be the second best state in the country for several years? Don't kid yourself Sonny, you're more like the Cardinals after signing Edgerin.... Still crappy, but not as bad.

I agree that the same old cliches and catch phrases are growing old and the public has tuned it out. I think both sides of the aisle are falling into that trap. I would not want to see any administration blame the media directly. As someone outside the administration though, I think it is reasonable to question the objectivity of some of the nations largest media outlets. Even our crappy paper in Rochester leans heavily to the left. If you are Michael Savage or Stuart Smalley, your listeners know that they are not getting both sides of the issues. If you are pitching your product as a newspaper or news program, you should attempt to be as objective as possible.

I'm just going by his or her respones above and RK's use of the term "Bushies"as derogatory. Evidently I don't know RK as well as the rest of you. Maybe "liberal tendencies" would have been more accurate?

I know you must be embarrased, but it is best to come out of the liberal closet and admit you have a problem. There are support groupd that can help you cope with the shame.

There is no possible way to report both stories? Your logic has won me over....which way to the patchouli stinkin' protest bus. I have sipped from the kool aid and am now an anti-bushie! I just hope I can sit between the great intelectuals Alec Baldwin and Susan Sarandon!

And who is giving you your information about the place being a "trainwreck"??? The media! I'll tell you what, when you show me the New York Times article about how happy the families of the fallen soldiers were to meet the President and how excited the autistic kid was to escort the President to his limo I'll stop blaming the media. Do you really believe there is no credibility issue with the national media when it comes to reporting on this administration? How many fake memos have to come out before you see the light? I guess I need to start writing good news on a protest placard and maybe they will cover me by mistake.

I heard the New York Times is reporting that President Bush punched an autistic kid and then taunted him. They are also reporting that it was President Bush who actually caused Jason to be born with Autism...Something to do with global warming I think. Cindy Sheehan praised the President shortly after meeting with him the first time, so there is still the chance that a family member of a fallen soldier will change their mind and start protesting. The National media will start covering the story at that point. No point in reporting anything positive about this administration or the war.

WGR is planning on talking about Jeremy White's vacation all night and possibly the Sopranos. There will be no time for sports talk! They will also be drawing straws to see who gets to kneel in front of Darcy Regier the next time he's a guest on the show. I really miss having a decent sports station in town!

yeah that's exactly the same! Screw racial discrimination, we should all get together and protest the horrible treatment of Liberals in this country! So oppressed! Where is Cindy Sheehan when you need her. Yet another anti-conservative story the press can go to town with! I'm sure this woman was a great employee other than the sticker incident! By the way, I'm OK with banning Middle Easterners, the Politicians just need to be consistent and explain why profiling is OK with the port deal but not for anyone else.
