NBC's "West Wing" becomes fair and balanced
« on: August 23, 2004, 12:20:43 PM »
"Alan Alda is returning to series television. The five-time Emmy winner will join the cast of NBC's White House drama "The West Wing" next season, playing a Republican from California with presidential aspirations. "

It's about time.

If memory serves me correct, Alan is a liberal, and will do his best (or the writers will do their best) to make Repubs look evil.  Just another saga in the "Goebbel lives!" brainwashing of America.

Unfortunately our society has a hard time decifering the truth of what they watch on tv and real life.

I'd rather not waste my time on television, lifes too short.  I'd rather spend time target shooting with my son (The long-haired realistic targets with "Liberal" spray painted across the chest are the bestest targets evar!)

I stopped watching West Wing last year when it stopped being about DC politics and suddenly became all about people getting shot or kidnapped.  It's like they wanted it to be more like Fox's "24".  Maybe I will start watching again.

Make sure to teach him to critisize things with which he has no experience too.

Typical "hate" reply.

If someone posted they were going target shooting with Bush likenesses, you would see no humor at all. I see no humor in this, just hate. But what do I know, I'm a Liberal.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Boy if you couldn't see the sarcasm in that post, you'd better have them up the medication...
