"Rush and others are going to run with it for years to come"
Yeah right. Rush and his fuckwit minions would have been bitching about this for years anyway. No matter what. Christ, you fucking know that. You think you're fooling anyone? The side you are on is as clear as your comment history.
There's a place to discuss his previous ethics, but the clock is ticking, and he's handed us a smoking gun.What do we do with it?
We have to attack the media that refuses to expose these truths. Some people seem to be thinking that if this guy was truly sorry and looking to help, that we would be seeing him on the news every night. But that's assuming that the nightly news, or CNN or 60 Minutes or any of them would agree to put him on. Of course Fox won't.
Boycotts of media advertisers? No. Pointless, too slow.
But marching into the newsrooms and staging sit-ins in the studios would be impossible to ignore. If the broadcasters won't cover the People, let the People cover the broadcasters a thousand times over, right in their own precious studios.
Someday we may live in a world where "The Times" can do a story on women filmmakers that doesn’t reference, in its first sentence, what they’re wearing. But to do so would mean that how a woman looks or dresses or strips isn’t important – and that doesn’t feel like much of a victory for anybody
wait... wut? Sigh, seems like some feminists can't reconcile their hate for strippers with their love of female strength.
It's reminiscent of the lyrics to the song "To The Teeth":
the sun is setting on the century
and we are armed to the teeth
we're all working together now
to make our lives mercifully brief
and schoolkids keep trying to teach us
what guns are all about
confuse liberty with weaponry
and watch your kids act it out
and every year now like christmas
some boy gets the milkfed suburban blues
reaches for the available arsenal
and saunters off to make the news
and the women in the middle
are learning what poor women have always known
that the edge is closer than you think
when the men bring the guns home
look at where the profits are
that's how you'll find the source
of the big lie that you and i
both know so well
in the time it takes this cultural
death wish to run it's course
they're gonna make a pretty penny
and then they're all going to hell
he said the chickens all come home to roost
yeah, malcolm forecasted this flood
are we really gonna to sleep through another century
while the rich profit off our blood?
true, it may take some doing
to see this undoing through
but in my humble opinion
here's what i suggest we do:
open fire on hollywood
open fire on MTV
open fire on NBC
and CBS and ABC
open fire on the NRA
and all the lies they told us
along the way
open fire on each weapons manufacturer
while he's giving head
to some republican senator
and if i hear one more time
about a fool's right
to his tools of rage
i'm gonna take all my friends
and i'm gonna move to canada
and we're gonna die of old age

Seems like Levi is the one suffering from unfair gender stereotyping if you ask me. Why he's just a stupid skate-hunk, we're all supposed to believe, why, he doesn't even have the capacity to learn from anything, it couldn't be that he's got a genuine problem with the Palins, it couldn't be that he is concerned about their influence on his son... no no.... he's just a pretty boy fame-monger without a thought in his thick head.
Will always be looked down on in a patriarchal society because it gives women power and advantage in society.
With pipes. They'll respect us for it.
How much time is wasted while men with enlarged prostates wait for their pee to appear.
Well, she's no Ani Difranco.
Done!
Juiciest thing from this article is that Taitz husband is CEO of a company for which the primary customer base is the Pharmacueticals industry.

and
Why would she be dangerous? Why is having a belief different from someone else's, dangerous?
Don't act like you don't understand the difference between actions and beliefs. I know, you're only here to learn, and if we loved America, we'd take the time to edumacate you.
