I guess denigrating something can make some people feel more secure. Instead of childish attacks on credibility and character, how about debating issues they have or something. All you’re sadly doing is keeping the divide as wide as possible between competing ideologies. I guess Liberals really can’t be true Americans, want to destroy the entire country and should probably all be shot or something...or at least have their ways of making public statements silenced, just like any good society with freedom of speech should do.

Yes.  That is about right.

Contempt of everybody else is a classic trait of clueless liberal twits. I liked Zappa musically and was sorry that he darwin’ed himself, but “clueless liberal twit” pretty much describes him.

William, you wouldn’t happen to be a DU’r would you?

If you’re looking for real debates, check out some of the other threads on this blog.  This thread is reserved for a well-deserved thrashing of the self-righteous Air America network.

Do you really think that AA’s propaganda and hate speech actually adds to the debate?  Give me a break.

Anyway, well executed, humor and satire are some of the highest forms of political debate.

What the hell are you talking about?  Pay attention: this issue is about Air America’s crooked and illegal behavior.  Not to mention highly unethical and immoral behavior.  If we can’t attack the character of thieves and point out their hypocrisy, then we can’t attack the character of anybody.

And if you stick around and pay a bit of attention, you’ll see that this site does debate the issues that they have.  You only have to pay attention.

I guess Liberals really can’t be true Americans, want to destroy the entire country and should probably all be shot or something…or at least have their ways of making public statements silenced, just like any good society with freedom of speech should do.

Blah blah blah.  Get a real point instead of these pathetic straw man arguments.

Oh, but didn’t you know, lefties don’t have to be able to take it, because they are always right and thus should never be confronted with any type of criticism.  Thus the reason for the line in EVERY debate I’ve had with one at school.  No matter what the topic is, when they get to a point where they have run out of facts (and also realize I’m nowhre near running out of facts), they all say that I’m just a racist and that (at least in what passes for a brain with them) means they win (little do they know that I’m President of the campus debate team and that a personal attack, or refusing to let me speak actually forfeits the debate and means they have handed me the win).  But I digress, libs can’t take it because they don’t think they should have to.

It’s Nancy Clark, the porcine princess of sports reporting at the Des Moines (Iowa) Register. Captain Ed has the details:Nancy Clark writes a sports column for the Des Moines Register. Bloggers could be forgiven for having never heard of her, but she certainly has heard about bloggers, if yesterday’s column gives any indication. She gives vent to a hilarious rant about the credibility of the Exempt Media while denigrating bloggers ... and manages to unwittingly demonstrate why the blogosphere exists in the first place.First, one has to understand how frustrating it must feel to write a sports column in Des Moines.Hey, everyone likes the latest High School game reports! But Nan has high hopes, I guess, and an ego to match her girth:I’ll also get in a word at Iowa’s media day with Drew Tate.The bloggers won’t.Tuesday, I’ll interview Mark Farley at Northern Iowa’s media day.The bloggers won’t.Just when the reader wants to scream, “Who??”, Clark says, “This isn’t an exercise in name-dropping.” Well, no kidding.Apparently what is roiling ole Nan’s deep waters is the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism hit piece on bloggers and she’s using it to prove she’s ready for the bigs. Best part:In the new “journalism of assertion,” as the report calls it, information is offered with little time and little attempt to independently verify its voracity.Freudian slip, eh Nan? Better stick to sports. In Des Moines. And whatever happend to the good old days of Iowa Pork Princesses? posted by Cracker Barrel Philosopher at 10:13 AM - postCountTB(’112333759935745761’wink;   Moonbats of North America!

Maybe it’s the three names which make her sound mysterious. Maybe it’s the penis jokes which make her sound slutty. It can’t be her personal appearance. She looks like a pushing 40, pre-middle aged, dumpy, lumpy, policy maven....THE HUFFINGTON POSTThere are so many loons, goons, and poltroons who write for Arianna Huffington’s Huffington Post that you all you have to do to find someone totally disconnected from reality is close your eyes, point, and click. It’s hard to say whether the B-list celebrities or C-list journalists who write for the site are more irrelevant. And Arianna herself presides over these mountebanks like a Queen of Tarts...DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUNDI actually have a soft spot in my heart for the inmates at the Democratic Underground. Let’s face it; the internet just wouldn’t be the same without them. It’s become a matter of course for me that whenever I’ve got writer’s block, I visit the DU and, within 5 minutes, find something so outrageous, so far beyond the pale, that my dilemma regarding what to write about disappears in a flash.Much more by following the link.(Hat tip: Michelle Malkin) posted by Cracker Barrel Philosopher at 7:32 AM - postCountTB(’112332797908419958’wink; Friday, August 05, 2005   “It’s a day to thank Harry Truman again” Wesley Pruden:Sixty years ago tomorrow “the Enola Gay,” a shiny new B-29 with a bomb named Little Boy in its bay, lifted off the runway on tiny Tinian island and settled on a course for Hiroshima. History wrote finis to its most destructive war with the dawn of the nuclear age six hours later. Hundreds of thousands of American soldiers, sailors and Marines, along with millions of their wives, parents, sons and daughters back home, celebrated their great, good and unexpected fortune at having cheated death, the appointment in Samarra, lying in wait on the beaches of the Japanese home islands. A second bomb for Nagasaki three days later sealed victory for civilization. But before anyone could beat a sword into a plowshare the euphoria of triumph and the hymns of gratitude gave way to voices of doubt, shame and guilt. The Japanese warlords and the men and women who followed them to a national grave became the innocents, the victims of the war they imposed on the world. The Americans of Pearl Harbor, Iwo Jima, Okinawa, and the Bataan Death March were rendered evil. This would be the message for the next half century from the faculty lounges, the churches of the empty pews and the preachers with nothing to say, the newsrooms of the elite media and the covens of the degenerate left, ever eager for an occasion to despise themselves.It’s their favorite sport."Most writers have looked to the ashes of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to find the answers for the use of those atomic weapons,” Col. Paul Tibbets, who commanded Enola Gay, recalled 50 years later when the Smithsonian proposed to observe the anniversary with a malignantly goofy exhibit of manufactured history. “The real answers lay in thousands of graves, from Pearl Harbor around the world to Normandy, and back again.” ...We were a different America then. No one apologized for a survival strategy of “whatever it takes.” It’s difficult to imagine Harry Truman bothering to argue with aides over what to name the war. Little Boy was the inevitable answer to the Axis challenge: “You want a war? We’ll give you one.” We can thank the man from Missouri for that. It’s a good thing he can’t see the degenerate state of his old party. posted by Cracker Barrel Philosopher at 9:10 PM - [...]

[...] You’d think that with Air America having stolen from a NYC charity, that bastion of media impartiality, the NY Times, would have been on the story like Barney Frank on a Key West cruiseline. But no...the paper is silent. I mean, even the lefty State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, who is running for governor of NY next year, feels the need to investigate the liberal radio network for pilfering nearly $1 million from needy kids and Alzheimer patients in NYC in order to subsidize the expensive tastes of the limousine liberals at AA. Thanks to the NY Post for reporting what the NYT should be. I mean, the AG takes the time to check it out, yet nary a peep from the Old Gray Hag (I’m referring to the NYT, not Helen Thomas).No, instead, the Times is too busy digging up dirt on SCOTUS nominee John Roberts’ adopted children. Thank God (insert deity here) that those enlightened protectors at the Times are doing the tough jobs needed to keep us well informed in a meaningful way. I mean, if I find out that Jack Roberts likes ballet instead of skeet shooting, I’ll flip out like David Gregory and Terry Moran at a DC press conference over the Plamegate affair!At least the NYT is consistent with their investigative reporting. Oh...wait...never mind. NotSoBlueStater observes:When the Swift Boats Veterans for Truth started getting some traction with their accusations against Kerry, the NY Times immediately sent two top reporters to Texas to try to link their funding back to the Bush campaign. After a week of digging, The Times produced a lengthy expose and a fancy chart that basically proved that Texas Republicans historically help each other get elected. The horror.The dollar amount of the donation in question was $250,000. The dollar amount in the Air America scandal is almost $900k. I’d say that if a legal $250k donation justifies sending two reporters halfway across the country for a week, $900k of embezzled funds in your own city probably justifies one reporter for a half day.But that’s just me...Click to enlarge:Well, the Post shows that AA has lost its excuse for delaying the repayment of the stolen money.Officials at the ultra-liberal radio network have repeatedly said Air America intends to repay the money, but claimed they put those plans on hold because of the city probe. “We’re waiting for directions from the investigators on how to proceed,” Air America spokeswoman Jamie Horn said this week. But the Department of Investigation said there is nothing to prevent the radio network from repaying its debt immediately. “DOI has done nothing and given no instruction preventing payment of money owed to Gloria Wise [Boys & Girls Club]. Any statements to the contrary are inaccurate,” said DOI spokesman Keith Schwam. In other words...AA is lying. I wonder if Al Franken will have a follow-up to his Lies and the Lying Liars book to include his employer.
