Ahem . . . I did not see any response from Bravus or Laz acknowledging that the liberals in the media pull the same capers as the conservatives! A mudslinging free-for-all. Of course, to a card-carrying liberal/social justice advocate, 'conservatives' are de facto unsavoury characters anyway! oh, well! lol

thanku for saying that David Koot.

amen and yes amen

All progress in the Spiritual Life is knowing and Loving GOD

"there is non upon earth that I desire besides YOU" PS 73:25

That perspective changes EVERYTHING-suffering and adversity are the means that makes us hungry for GOD. Disapointments will wean us away wordly occupations. Even sin(when repented of) becomes a mechanism to push us closer to HIM as we experience His Love and Forgiveness.

Imus may yet have the last laugh. He is suing CBS for 40 million dollars which is what remains on his contract. Turns out in his contract he is encouraged to be controversal and there is a clause that states that Imus MUST receive a warning before he can be fired. He did not get a warning so CBS is in violation of the contract.

We will have to see how this turns out.

This is because conservative talking heads dominate the airwaves. Conservatives need a wake up call. Perhaps this is it....

For what it's worth, the QB in question was Donovan McNabb. While he's not in the same category as Peyton Manning, or Brady, he's not, nor was he at the time near the bottom statistically.

Conservatives are quite obviously nastier than liberals. Beck, Hannity, Savage, Limbaugh, Levin et al are all excellent exmples of this. Which liberal commentators have sunk to their depths of nastiness?

Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.

All eyes - and ears - are on shock jock Don Imus

In four decades on radio's high wire, Don Imus may never have faced a trickier challenge than he does tomorrow when he steps to the microphone at 6a.m. to launch his new morning show on WABC-AM (770 AM).

DK, no acknowledgement from me just because I had abandoned this thread months ago, not knowing or caring who Imus is.

If something is done that is wrong, I don't care what brand the person who does it wears, it is still wrong. What Imus said, liberal or not, was just stupid and offensive. It doesn't automatically excuse stupid and offensive things said by people who wear the'opposite' label though.

Truth is important
