I didn't say "non-conservative", though. I said liberal. My joke still stands.

ThinkToday said:Liberal media will never report anything like this. Remember Quail taking a beating for years over spelling potato(e), but not a word about Obama talking about the 57 States. And no, I didn’t see one word about the open mic talk on “main stream media”.
WhoWee said:WhoWee is an unrepresented angry independent small business moderate conservative - a husband and father of 4 kids, 2 pups, and a cat named Whalebone - if you really want to know?

Please make sure your statements are accurate before posting them.
ThinkToday said:For example, the scale of the negative coverage of the Tea Party is far greater than the negative coverage of OWS, even though OWS protests have been far more violent, costly and disruptive (e.g. Port shutdown).
lisab said:You say media coverage of the Tea Party is more negative than that of OWS. What proof do you offer?
You can't just make blanket claims here - you will be called out on it. We're a bit different than most places on the web, in that respect. We tend to take a more analytic, less emotional approach.
Please become familiar with our rules.
Don't post again until you do.ThinkToday said:Oh, like your commments on Trump?
I'll get the analysis that was done on the subject when I get some time. It was something like 50:1 positive storys OWS v. TP

Tu quoque ( /tuːˈkwoʊkwiː/),[1] or the appeal to hypocrisy, is a kind of logical fallacy.

This smacks, big time. PF is no longer ruled by reason. It's ruled by domination.
Yeah...
http://www.cnn.com/2011/11/11/politics/solyndra-probe/index.html?hpt=hp_t2The White House on Friday turned over internal e-mails demanded under subpoena by a House panel investigating the collapse of Solyndra, but stopped short of releasing the full cache sought by the Energy and Commerce Committee, officials said.
The e-mails provided fell within what one administration official described as "what we believe are legitimate areas of oversight for the committee."
White House Counsel Kathy Ruemmler explained the decision to send only a portion of the subpoenaed e-mails in a letter that accompanied the release, writing that the committee issued an "overbroad and overreaching subpoena to the White House that encroaches upon important and longstanding Executive Branch prerogatives."
http://money.cnn.com/2011/11/10/news/economy/keystone_pipeline/index.htmBowing to public pressure, the Obama administration said Thursday it will delay a decision on the controversial Keystone oil sands pipeline expansion until at least 2013.
Citing concern over the proposed route through Nebraska's Sand Hills region and over the Ogallala Aquifer, the State Department said it needs more time to study the issues and look at possible alternative routes.
Agreed. That pipeline is dead if Obama is reelected.russ_watters said:http://money.cnn.com/2011/11/10/news/economy/keystone_pipeline/index.htm
Convenient for him, I guess, but again, Obama is a President who was supposed to change how business is done in Washington. I don't think this will play well during the election, looking like a politically motivated buck-passing, job-killing, increasing Middle Eastern oil dependency decision. Sorta like his handling of the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository.

During his press conference in Hawaii, President Obama referenced being "here in Asia." As Americans know, Hawaii is the 50th state, admitted to the Union on Aug. 21, 1959. Mr. Obama also lists Hawaii as his birthplace, which makes his reference even more curious. So, is Hawaii part of Asia?

Is Hawaii part of Asia?
No. Of course it's part of North America. 26.44% (923 votes)
No. It's a Polynesian island chain and not part of either Asia or North America. 64.97% (2,268 votes)
Not sure. But I know you don't need a passport to get there. 4.7% (164 votes)
Yes. It's the only state that's part of another continent. 3.9% (136 votes)
Hmmm?...

daveb said:Why would they need to spin i?
DoggerDan said:The why is immaterial. WhoWee's point is valid - the White House will spin it. The question is how they'll spin it.
daveb said:In that case I would say WhoWee made a prediction, not a point.
WhoWee said:Actually, I asked a specific question. "How will the White House spin this story?"
Char. Limit said:Why would Obama have to work with the supercommittee daily? Last I heard, his job was to be in the Executive branch, not the Legislative branch.
DoggerDan said:The why is immaterial. WhoWee's point is valid - the White House will spin it. The question is how they'll spin it.
lisab said:I'm still not seeing any spin on this.
