One good deed from Fixnews doesn't redeem them from a lifetime of dishing out GOP propagandas. Same with autospies.

I'm guessing Fixnews and agent001 are finally realizing that they just can't beat the hard working righteous Obama machine, so it's best to join then resist and risk end up being the loser in the long run.

Now getting EL34 to see the light is another story.

A little education about warmongering Libs.

It was the Libs that first bombed Japanese targets in China before Pearl Harbor.

It was the Libs that dropped two atomic bombs.

It was the Libs that got us into the Korean and Vietnam wars.

JFK was President when the Cuban missile crisis happened.

It was President peenut Carter that looked like a fool when the Iranians took our Embassy and everyone in it hostage.

The WTC was attacked the first time when Clinton was President.

dropping those nukes was the right thing to do. it ended WW2 and destroyed the imperial japanese regime. It probably saved lots of lives too, since WW2 ended literally 5 days later because of the nukes.

Korea was the right thing also. look at north korea now- that's what south korea would be like had it not been for that war.

Vietnam was a mistake, i'll give you that

Liberals know how to win wars, conservatives don't. it's as simple as that.

and there's nothing wrong with a little socialism. we have gov. run military, police/fire departments, schools, roads, libraries...Communism and pure capitalism are both failures. the only system that works is a mix of both. we just need to find the right mix.

you pure capitalism moronic right wingers are just as crazy as communists. your idiotic experiment is OVER. Your ideas= FAILURE

Now now, that might be a bit of manipulation, EL34. Although, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were chosen because they were still relatively intact, as most of the industrial centers had already been heavily bombed. This is because they wanted there to be no ambiguity about the weapon's power. I really don't think it was about experimentation- it was about sending a clear message- a message borne of destruction and death, but a message.

I95SPEEDINGTICKETS so Oprah and Jerry Springer at one time had the same type of viewing audience, stay at home individuals, not possibly working, a fringe tinny percent that is into such viewing is a joke at best. Oprah has elevated her message and moved on.

News networks are a representation of a much larger viewer demographic and when you have Katie Corick ( if that is her name spelling) ABC News, MSNBC, BBC America, etc, competing for viewership, everything changes. You have CEO, Doctors, Teachers, Home Makers, Students, Grandparents, people from all walks of life up in the mix. Admit it. Fox News is extremely relevant. We might not agree with the message, but put it this way, the L.A. Times, San Francisco Herald and the like would either still be around or not be in trouble of extinction if their message was less was hitting the right notes. Fox can be right leaning at times and to some degree that does bother me. But at least they try to have opposing viewpoints on and fake being fair and balanced. See if that is the case with MSNBC (Mostly Sad Narcissistically Bitter Crybabies) they are left and proud of it. Air America, left and proud of it. Their ratings also reflect how many is into their point of view. Their viewpoint isn't bad just not what most viewers agree on. Very few will ever admit to watching Fox, like not many admit to watching porn, but it is what it is.

And I was born in the soviet union and saw my parents fight for the independence from soviet union for my country, and against the soviet propaganda media machine. Fox news and the right wingers in general are very VERY good at what they do- control, fear monger, and brainwash the american people and push their propaganda. Lenin would be proud.

it's just that the message is not resonating any more. it is irrelevant. it's only a matter of time before they completely lose touch with the people. the senior citizens who voted for Bush and who watch faux news fanatically will be dead within a decade.

You want fear mongering, just look at what would have happened if the stimulus package didn't pass or if now the healthcare package doesn't get voted into law. The Seven Horses of the Apocalypse will be knocking at our door for Christmas. Now the insurance companies is the mean ol' evils. Before it was WallStreet.

I'm 100% sure we would be in the second great depression right now if the stimulus had not passed. how is that fear mongering? All the sings at the end of 2008 were pointing to another great depression. many of the criteria were actually worse than they were before the 1929 collapse.

and when herbert hoover cut spending during an economic disaster in 1929 it created an even bigger mess.

Obama was right. The stimulus was needed and it worked. Stock market is up 50% since march. home sales are up 4 months in a row. number of jobs lots a month are down significantly compared to 6 months ago.

conservatives were wrong yet again. shocking? hardly. I honetly can't remember a single prediction they made that came out true- from saying that the Clinton taxes won't create jobs (21 million jobs under clinton and huge economic growth) to Iraq war lasting 6 months, WMD's, fundamentals of our economy being strong...I mean, you name it, and republicans are WRONG on it.

That is why I voted for Obama and will again in 2012

He got lucky; in 1994 we got a 'Contract With America' and a Republican Congress. Who writes all the tax bills and spending bills, again? Oh yeah, that would be the Congress. And history shows that taxes and spending were both held in check during Clinton's terms. Wish I could same the same of Bush II, but he had a liberal Congress, and seriously lacked a spine with regards spending bills that crossed his desk.

Now we have avowed tax-and-spend liberals controlling both the White House and the Congress, so what have we seen so far?

Trust me, the last thing I want is an invasion of my privacy. My point is simply that privacy is to some extent compromised when on the Internet, like it or not. It is public space, no different than outdoors in the real world; imagine how ridiculous I would seem to complain about people observing my behavior in a public park.

Again, online banking, while it doesn't require "ownership" of your computer, nonetheless binds you to terms. Even if the language doesn't state it, does the bank not know what you are doing online? And by extension, can the Government not have access to that information if they wanted to? There you go.

Complaining about this is no different than those who wonder how a non-discrete picture they posted to a blog is available all over the Net. The reality is once on the Net, you are no longer in the privacy of your own space. What you simply cannot afford to be accessible online must be taken off a computer connected to the Internet. If it's not the Government, it very well may be hackers.

Claiming ownership of your machine when logged in is pushing it, no doubt, but it's hardly a different approach than when entering a Govt. building and having potentially dangerous items taken from you. Unless this enforcement is abused, only the dangerous item will actually be taken.

You have the freedom to opt out; your are not being forced. It's really more of a deterrent primarily to those who may try to hack, upload malware, etc. It's no different than connecting your own laptop to your employer's company network; your activity can and possibly is being monitored. I think the language was simply improperly worded; I doubt the Government really cares about your Poconos getaway photos; your haxx0rzPwnag3.exe file, maybe.

Or maybe they are datamining to submit the info to advertisers who will bombard you with promotions tailor-made to your perceived interests (I'm not being sarcastic). Maybe there is validity to the outcry; I just doubt this when you consider it's a site that will be accessed mostly with company (and not personal) computers, by a very minuscule fraction of the population (dealers only).

Ideally, such enforcement should not be warranted, but ideally cyber-criminals and criminals in general shouldn't exist either. It's not necessarily the best way; I'm just realistic to what the world is today, and how protection inevitably compromises privacy to some extent.

The critical question is how to achieve the balance, protecting without infringing, without abusing the compromise. But anyone is sadly mistaken who believes this is a problem with the Obama administration; this reality has been existent for a long time; Obama administration simply made the "mistake" of revealing it.

Why do you feel the need to carry around a loaded gun? The last thing this country needs are non trained average Americans carrying loaded guns over state lines. That's what the proposed law that was overturned was about. It was about allowing people to carry loaded handguns over state lines. The Law has been in effect decades before Obama. Just because he didn't overturn it doesn't make it obama's fault why it existed in the first place. Bush also could have overturned that same law but he didn't. Why wasn't there any outrage about Bush maintaining that policy? That's the problem with people these days, they do not pay attention to the facts.

I'm glad that they didn't overturn the law. Only policemen should be allowed to carry loaded across stateliness. And there's a protocol when they do it. Now out of the blue normal citizens should be able to carry guns across state lines? Lunacy.

So when you say "Toms", you mean "Uncle Toms", right?

Again, 001, why are you so afraid to ban this guy who has brought race baiting into MANY posts, and you don't even as much as flinch, yet you have no problem banning ones that fervously defend a specific car brand??

The southern Racists aren't scaring anyone anymore. Their chosen political party isn't in charge anymore. That's why they are being so vocal now. And when the republicans did control things the southern racists couldn't influence anyone beyond the small towns where they live. The racists do not need to be controlled. their divisive hateful rhetoric ensures that any politician associated with them will lose election after election on the national stage. Just like the last election.

Example #2: I guess it's ok to use the N word on here as long as you're not white?

...oh wait, he used asterisks, so I guess it doesn't really count.
