Recently leaked footage of the new Paris Hilton sex tape…

I already got him on SSI and have put him up in motels at a cost of 0 per week. He will not look for a room, but rather seeks out your column and porno sites. Marc, I met you a couple of times at the book fair at UCLA.

CBC: “Wurtzel said his company has a policy not to accept commercials on issues of public controversy, such as the Iraq war or abortion.”

Here is an example of human decency: I attended a speech at a church by Gracia Burnham. She was the one who, along with her husband, were kidnapped along with about a dozen other missionaries in the Phillipines by radical Islamists a number of years ago (She ended up eventually being freed, but her husband was murdered). I didn’t know what I was in for, but it basically turned out to be a celebration of the extreme right wing.

In her case, as well as the case of Terry Schiavo, would it have been appropriate to go on the airwaves and make fun of them and their tragedies? Would it have been decent to have sccused them of “faking it” to make political hay?

The difference, Jim, is that if a left wing media personality had done any of these Limbaugh-esque things, they would have been denounced by the right establishment and banned from the airwaves, Dixie Chicks-style.

However, if you are any one of the cornucopia of right wing hot air bags on the air, you are given a free pass. That’s one of the differences between us and them.

The other difference? It’s called decency and respect. Something the right doesn’t quite have a handle on.

He opened himself up and threw himself into the ring of politics by doing his promoting this way. As I understand it, he specifically supported Cardin over Steele in the Maryland Senate race.

As the true statement goes, all is fair in war love, and politics. Rush’s typical stupid and insensitive response actually helped Michael.

The question for the audience: does sympathic figures who insert themselves into this nasty arena, albeit very sincerely, ought to expect there will be insensitive and unkindly political pushback? Or do they they deserve a pass?

I would prefer it if you used html tags. As a security conscious geek I like to know just where I’m being sent on the interwebs.

Dogwhistle politics at its finest.
I didn’t even notice it.

As for the question, “Is he really that dumb?”, the answer is a resounding “yes.” It’s true that he and his ilk have brains enough to have much scorn for his own audience, which they certainly do. However, American pop culture has always celebrated the least brightest and least talented. I cannot even think of a radio media outlet here in the heartland of America, for example, that does not bore me with its banality. I love visiting Canada because I can catch up on the actual news.

As was stated by a previous poster, oxy-moron’s medical opinion snorts in relation to Fox won’t change the view of the voting demographic whom Democratic operatives most covet. The losers who make up oxy-moron’s base of listeners are irrelevant in this election. It is a case of preaching to the converted.

I will admit that it is interesting to note Fox’s dignified and graceful response to this flunkie, but I don’t believe that oxy-moron was worth even mentioning in the first place, since he and his crowd are non-entities.

Thanks reg for the You Tube link, I thought you were joking that Mel’s Jesus broke out with the Aramaic, but seeing is believing. While I agree with the senitments written, I always get a little nervous around election time because this is the heartland we’re talking about where production values rate way lower than family values.

But speaking of production values straight from the Atwater handbook is the Corker ad against Ford:

Why didn’t they just give him a pimp hat? You can check out other campaign ads as well at the NYT.

The Dems need either TN or VA to make the switch as well to take the Senate and all three races are mighty close.

This week Rush launched the first salvo in his valiant war against the sick and enfeebled, by attacking an ad that Michael J. Fox produced for Claire McCaskill….

What’s a little sickening is the lordly treatment he gets whenever he does Russart, who seems to find him so endless charming he gets extra soft ball questions.
