A New Day And Old Bob

Look, i don't deny the fact that her father sounds like a whack job - assuming of course that Newshounds isn't being selective in their reporting, but of course they would never do that.

And she could be just as whack as her father, or she could not be. Look, Obama's dad was an alcoholic who abandoned his family, does that mean we should view Obama in the same light? Of course not.

What I find humerous is that in order to turn the focus away from the story, you make a story out of the "beliefs" of someone from the story - something which by the way you're pretty good at pointing out whenever Fox does it.

All I'm saying is that sometimes the apple DOES fall far from the tree. We all know people who are good human beings despite being raised by less-than-desirable parents, and we probably also know some fine people whose kids turned out to be assholes.

Either the story is real or it isn't, and if it isn't, O'Keefe, Giles, Beck & Fox will all suffer a huge hit, as they should. And if it is true, should ACORN be shut down? Of course not, but given their track record I'd be leery of funneling more federal dollars their way.

The Guy Sure Babbles A Lot For Somebody Never Posting Again

Well, I suppose that makes sense in Abbyland, if you don't consider that before the ACORN workers even knew there were underage girls to "help" they had already agreed to provide help for getting these two a house to conduct prostitution in, AND avoid paying taxes. But nice try Abby. Bob | Homepage | 09.13.09 - 8:57 pm | #

"Finally, finally, ACORN is fighting back – and it’s high time. In her statement, Lewis accused the filmmaker of doctoring the videos, saying that “it is clear that the videos are doctored, edited, and in no way the result of the fabricated story being portrayed by conservative activist ‘filmmaker’ O'Keefe and his partner in crime." Lewis went on to say, “It is not coincidence that the most recent attacks have been launched just when health care reform is gaining traction. It is clear they've had these tapes for months.” ====================================== So which is it? Are the tapes fake (and if so, why did you fire the ACORN workers in the tape), or are you upset that they held onto the tapes until now? I mean really, if they're fake (ladies, can you say "false dismissal lawsuit"), why not fake it to look like it happened last week? Bob | Homepage | 09.13.09 - 9:06 pm | #

The absurd postseason scenarios

As predicted by Yahoo Sports.



The AFC picture looks somewhat realistic, though i'd switch the 2nd seed with Pittsburgh, San Diego taking the 3rd seed, and where the hell did they get Houston taking the South?

The NFC? A mess.

Seattle winning the West? Yes, it's a chump-change division, but as long as Warner and Fitzgerald are healthy, the Seahawks have as much of a chance as the Lions breaking even at the end of the season.

Dad's a tried-and-true Dallas fan, but I don't see Tony Romo manning up and kicking Eli Manning's ass, nor McNabb's. I'm looking for either the Giants or the Eagles winning the East this time.

The Count will bite my head for saying this, but Farve and Peterson vs. the North? I like the ol' gunslinger.

My Predictions:
AFC
West - Chargers (of course)
North - Steelers
South - Titans
East - Patriots
Wild Card - Indy & Baltimore

NFC
West - Cardinals
North - Vikings
South - Saints
East - Giants
Wild Card - Philadelphia & Carolina

How should I respond to this?

This was left on my last blog about Joe Wilson:

Rep. Wilson is owed an apology, not the Great OZbama or wicked witch Pelosi and her flying monkeys. The House specifically rejected amendments requiring verification of legal status in order to receive benefits. So, pray tell, why wouldn't illegals cash in on this program? Because they are law abiding illegals? Come on America, leave something for our kids!!!

Critcism of Bush 43 is un-American: A left-wing fairy tale

Casper,

Not actually - you see, its a leftwing myth that any conservative ever said that criticism of Bush was unpatriotic.

Mark - You're completely full of shit.

Does This Make Any Sense To You?

Since the nightmare was soon becoming a reality, right wing and conservative talk radio has been bombarded with the fairness doctrine act and how the Obama administration was going to take away the people's voice by controlling information; a sure sign of socialism. Even though I personally can see a sinister play by Obama's administration dealing with this act I must ask myself, why and can you blame him? Is He some kind of anti-chirst/ racist who is hell bent on the eradication of the United States old liners or is it that even Obama has seen Talk radio become a distraction, a hindrance and that Hannity, Limbaugh and friends have become a deter to Obama's vision. which isn't always a bad thing once put in its proper perspective where men and women of media can show they can be trusted and show some integrity by being responsible and honest resulting in a good, peaceful and productive dialogue as Obama time and time calls for but Talk radio has gone too far now with the Obama's address of today's youths, spreading all kind of fear mongering rhetoric. Hannity calling it "the indoctrination speech" We have heard of the old adage, "absolute power corrupts absolutely" well maybe that is what is happening in Talk radio. Maybe it is time that talk radio be scaled back but then who does it and to what extent in a free society?
