Maybe you should stop ASSuming you know what people are thinking. You would stop looking like such as arrogant ass. But maybe being an arrogant bellybutton is your thing. Seems like it so far at least.

Huh? Try this. It is not now snowing on your front yard and there is no snow accumulated there. That sounds like a negative to me. Now, go outside and you will see the proof.



Or, if you like, it is not daylight in denver now. Can you not disprove that?

Sure, depending on the show.

I found there show on China and tank man very interesting.



That's the problem with you, you made assumptions about people you who you don't know well (unless your a shade, then your just not paying attention)and really look silly.

I seem to be the only Democrat in the hornet's nest. I chose to disagree about Gore and Fonda, and I was labelled. A limosine liberal. All kinds of ****. Immediately. Read the threads.

Now, you want to put away the labels and have a debate - then I will stop baiting.

Here is Gore's problem:

He's not chicken little. He's chicken *****. He wrote Earth in the Balance in the 90's, and then wouldn't touch environmental issues with a 10 foot poll in 2000 when they weren't tracking well with his handlers.

Even with Clinton getting hummers, he was running on 5 years of boom and no war, no terror. That he lost, even with Florida irregularities, is ridiculous. Now, with nothing on the line he comes back for this film. So he has something, so he wont be forgotten.

He does more harm than good. All the wingnuts immediately see he is the host and write the film off, and go looking for counterspin.

It's the same with Jane Fonda. She is the butt of every vietnam invective in the last ten years of CK/WB/AH. You know what? She's an idiot, she was used. She was used by the French director who made her do Barbarella, she was used by Tom Hayden who got her to become anti-war, and she was used by Ted Turner as a trophy wife. Go after Hayden, he actually benefitted from his stance on Vietnam.

So really, when there is very little room for listening and debate - don't accuse me of being arrogant. THe height of arrogance is refusing to even look at what a large group of scientists is saying is an issue and instead bashing the messenger.

So who's not looking? I think you assume too much.

Yep... his arrogance won't allow him to see people... he loves humanity but hates people... a liberal flaw.  

PBS?   some programs are/were good.  I will admit to not watching more than an hour or so per year these days.   The reason?   They are left leaning in the extreme.   It is frustrating to listen to them say outlandish things and pass them off as proven facts.... Like saying man is the main cause of global warming/cooling and just tossing that remark off casualy.

These days... I use the internet... even more than books.  I want to read an article of carl frigging sagans?  I go to the internet instead of PBS... Or, Public extorted service.... PBS can't even have a show on atronomy these days without a lefty lecture in there somewhere...

At least with the internet I can find the articles without social comment or... find both pro and con social/political arguements... A person who watched only PBS would have a very strange outlook.    

If a source is 80-100% one political leaning or the other... it is foolish to not take that into consideration when watching...  Fox news is fun for me to watch during crisis but I know that they are about the same right as PBS is left.   I keep that in mind.

Lately... I have enjoyed this BB and the links that a lot of you have provided.... they (taken as a whole) provide a lot more give and take than all the PBS or Fox news watching in the world.

Fox is the only channel that is not tilted so heavily to the left that they seem like right wing. An example would be CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS, MSNBC and CNN, I exclude the BBC, they think Trotski was a Neo-Con, Facist Homophobic, Racist. Sexist, Gun Crazy, Nascar Lovin', Republican.
