The sage saith;

did you ask permission to raise your hoof, William?

I have a 'take a penny/leave a penny' tray for people like you.

>"As for Yoo and tenure, I love it when the good folks at Balkinization get going on weighty matters like this. When it comes to sweet reason, no one is sweetier than they are."

Translation; Yoo's tenuous tenure.

>"I'm thinking that moral turpitude would be the best technical argument for sending Yoo to Yooranus, but in a country like ours, which long ago decided that making war was less obscene than making love -- at least in public -- the turpitude part would be hard to sell. (What's that, turpentine, you say? Well, egghead, we haven't had that spirit here at Dick's Hardware since at least 1969.)"

Translation; William has a bad case of the Mercedes Bends... forget the pennies, that's gold, William. Gold.

...So, I tucked my hair up under my hat and went in to ask him why.

Which tactics Glenn?

The outright Deceit tactic i've seen on Major Media outlets (print, tv and,oh, net)for so long now?

The misinformation tactic? The pompous, self-aggrandizement, personality-cultish tactic. And last, but certainly not least... the just plain ignorant tactic!

If there is one thing I've learned Lately it's how utterly stupid some of these people are... and that would most especially include many members of Congress. *even most the 'left' on the FISA debate didn't know what they were talking about! dumb, in fact.

I don't think you mean these tactics Glenn. I would hope, actucally prefer, deceit and misinformation be delt with promptly and honestly. That ignorance be fought with knowledge. (essentially the way you do. etc. etc.)

I will certainly agree; There does appear, presently, that many, if not most, of MSM is dominated by the aforementioned tactics. So, I say we need to find out who makes these kind of tactical decisiions in the MSM and replace them with people who can make better ones. The demand is there/there is a reason Colbert is so popular. imo.

supply side,

bah.

William and jkalos.

Experience can be a form of education and let your conscience be your guide.

For example, my experience tells me that the Bush has ^%$^&^%uped every &^&%&%ing thing he has ever touched. So, when he says something is good I just assume it's bad. *I could be wrong, i've been wrong before. I figure... the odds are about 1 in a 1,000,000. ;/

I can only see the horizen but I know the world is round because it blows my mind. It has something to do with gravity.

"Catch All".

~dang, how many is that, now? It sounds like a lot.

~To Characterize McCain as "Sloppy and misleading", I believe, gives credit where none is due. McCain is Insane. (*And, really, needs professional help, no joke).

~Also, I like vacant better than vapid. Vapid is a good word, Glenn, but I think vacant is better.

~About that 'tough guise' Chapter. Hey, I'm tough guys too. I've been working-out my Obliques. I don't want to scare nobody but I'm so tough now, Jack Baur(sp?) picks me up at the airport and loans me his caddyillac whenever I'm in town. (the dirty little pimp) John Wayne used to darn my socks. Ken Pollack breaks down like a little girl and crys... when I walk down the street.

float like a butterfly,

bah.

Holy Rollers.

Hey, that's my area of expertease. That, speaking in tongues and I'm fast learning... 'inter alia'. I learn something new everyday, Pedinska. :)

In my spare time, I'm a tour guide at the N. Kentucky Creation Museum,. (If you get the time, you and your hobbled hubby can saunter on down and I'll show you around.)

General revelation: you can go cross-eyed reading the NYT.

No doubt since the NYT's has now exposed all this deceitful Gov. propaganda by the U.S. Media, the NYTs will go back to its op-ed pages where the deceitful gov. propaganda was published and expose all the deceitful government propaganda it published there. knock on wood.

The TV%. I checked with Chris Matthews, Tim Russert, George whatshisname and the other 10+/- people who are the best and only tv news team in the business and they don't know what the nyt is talking about Glenn. ...Does it have anything to do with Politics?

clinging to my poll data,

Lt. bah.
