I find that Liberals have a tendency to post sources and facts This is true, unfortunately the sources and "facts" more often than not are fabricated by left wing resources....
Hell at least when the liberals toss around the insults they have a tendency to be amusing, rather than juvenile attempts to shoehorn them into an acronym Really, have you read any of DW's posts? | |

Posted: 5/12/2008 8:37:06 AM | Conservative:
Crazy
Oddball
Nutcase
Screwball
Erroneous Talk (Lies!)
Right Wing Weirdo
Vicious Attacks against the Truth
Asinine
Trashing the stock market and job opportunities for Americans
Insane
Very wasteful--spending money left and right while giving the rich special breaks (deficit spending out of control!!)
Eliminate--what we need to do with these people at the polls--vote these clowns out of office so that they can't do any more damage to the nation that they have already done.
The LIBERAL spell out by pocoloco had to be responded to to point out the evils of conservatism and the destruction that this mad thinking has wrought on our nation and our relations with the rest of the world. We the people need to WAKE UP and vote out all the right wing wackos that are destroying the fabric of our nation by lying, aiding and abetting corporate greed, giving special breaks to the rich while ripping off the poor, crashing the stock markets, ruining job prospects for Americans, allowing Big Oil to get away with high prices, starting a war based on LIES and so much more. I agree that the liberals' assaults on conservatives are badly needed. My posts have been intended to be amusing, fun and interesting, as opposed to some of the posts I have seen from the right wing crowd. | |

Most statements made by US liberals would be seen as centrist or even right of center by other countries liberal thinkers.

The main problem being that you have to ALREADY BE RICH to have a shot @ election in this country......thus all candidates have been previously co-opted by the very system they propose to reform. Then we act shocked that they've 'reformed' it to benefit their REAL constituency (namely, other rich folks w/ money to spend on politicians).
The only possible way to get candidates that would actually be good for the average citizen's situation would be to remove big money as the main factor for election thru allowing ONLY public funding of campaigns, no privately-funded TV ads/slurs, etc. | |

Superdelegates put Obama within mathematical reach
By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER (Associated Press Writer)
From Associated Press
May 12, 2008 7:14 PM EDT
WASHINGTON - Barack Obama's wave of superdelegate endorsements puts him within reach of the Democratic presidential nomination by the end of the primary season on June 3 - even if he loses half of the remaining six contests.
The Illinois senator has picked up 26 superdelegates in the past week. At that pace, he will reach the number of delegates needed to clinch the nomination - 2,025 - in the next three weeks, when delegates from the remaining primaries are included.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's best chance to slow Obama is to move the goal posts. She will get that chance May 31 when the Democratic National Committee's rules panel considers proposals to seat the delegates that had been stripped from Florida and Michigan. Those two states violated national party rules by holding their primaries in January and lost their delegates.
"Michigan and Florida are key to it," Howard Wolfson, Clinton's communications director, said Monday.
Obama picked up four superdelegates Monday, including Sen. Daniel Akaka of Hawaii and Rep. Tom Allen of Maine.
Allen, a six-term congressman who is running for the Senate, said the time has come for a "graceful end" to the nomination fight.
"I believe the process of reconciliation, the process of unifying this party, should begin sooner rather than later," Allen said. "It should begin in May and not in June."
Obama has 1,871.5 delegates, including endorsements from party and elected officials known as superdelegates. Clinton has 1,697, according to the latest tally by The Associated Press. That leaves Obama just 153.5 delegates short of the number needed to win the nomination at the party's national convention this August in Denver.

Posted: 5/13/2008 2:40:24 PM | Liberals used to be proud to call themselves liberal. Now if someone calls you liberal
sometimes it's taken as a personal attack.
It used to be the weather was THE most mundane, neutral subject to bring up. It was expected that if you had an idle minute you would talk about the weather. It was the perpetual joke since I was born. Now if you say "Hot today eh?" you had better be prepared to defend your political views. Thank you a.g.
Now we have the Olyimpics coming up in China. Sports is supposed to be who ever runs the fastest, wins, period. If they crossed the finish line legally it doesn't matter what their political views are. That's all been changed now. I've been told that I need to free Tibet via bumper stickers for the last 30 years. But nooooo, we nedd to make the atheletes who've been living for these 10.9 seconds their whole life suffer.
Back on topic.... it's just plain obvious how liberal the so called free press is. Not as much today with different venues available. There are an amazing amount of folks that don't recognize it at all. That's ok it's not illegal to be ignorant. | |

And just to illustrate the Gore issue isn't a rumor...
Man you have to read your sources, that snopes article says "FALSE"
Man you have to read more carefully, the article said Gore didn't receive special dispensation for his early release, and the Snopes article confirmed it. The article said he received special dispensation for the delay in sending him to SE Asia.... It says that rather than the 12 months everyone else had to serve in Viet Nam, he was sent with just about 1/2 that time remaining on active duty. It says that during the very few months he was actually in country, he was assigned "handlers" that kept him far from the action... It says that he requested an early out to attend seminary. Typical liberal approach though; take a portion of the information and make it the issue rather than addressing the entire issue...
I find that Liberals have a tendency to post sources and facts, conservatives have a tendency to spout insults, make claims about others supporting terrorists, and talk about homosexual/science conspiracies to suppress the truth. Actually I find just the opposite to be true. I find that many Liberals posting here have a tendency to post their own personal opinions and cite them as fact. One such example is the rampant and completely unsubstantiated Liberal claim that Fox News is biased. They have no source, they have no statistical information to cite, they just "know" because someone else said so, therefore it must be true. | |

Posted: 5/20/2008 10:28:01 AM | It is true ~ The insults from the left have increased ~
It a fight~ fire with fire strategy ~ At this point, the fact that the "right" started it mean little. ~ I suppose%$(*%)^)^)_!
Try watching "Fox" News ~ It's a free of all ~! everyone trying to talk at once! trying get their "twisted view" in ~ anyway they can! Petty and small ~ and play it to the hilt!
Last night ~ one commontator, suggest the DNC, was trying to rule with "fear" ~~ imagine that? ~~ The other lady talking head said , No! ~~ I think it's hope! ~ and so they shot her down! ~ Funny stuff!
It's like trying to listen to a group of excited women! ~ Which is fine for women, that just the way "many" ladies are! ~ all talking at once ~ but very un- manly behavior.
Bunch of limp wrist ~ swishy boys is my guess. ~ I gag on it ~ as long as I can ~ and final have to turn the channel and watch 'Mike Rowe's" "Dirtist Jobs" till I start feeling better about being a man again. ~ Fox offered some of the sickest thinking around. ~
Bob O'Really has been away from his chair for awhile ~ hiding under the porch, licking his wounds~ is my guess, ~ I look forward to his return, ~ I'm not finshed seeing him get kicked around somemore. ~
My response to all this ~~ "Don't start none ~~ and there won't be none!"

It means republicans have control of the media and they're liars. They have the whole US so brainwashed that all they've changed the meanings of words in the minds of most Americans.
Liberal= someone who hates the US
Democrat= Communist or Socialist
A person who's not Christian= someone who's trying to destroy America
Patriot= A republican
Flag stands for=Republican party
Educated people=mostly aetheists and communists
Science=Anti-religion
Theory of Evolution=A plan by aetheists to destroy American education | |

Posted: 9/5/2008 7:58:36 PM | | Liberal media has been on the decline since the Reagan years. Anywhere you turn, you hear the phrase "liberal media" and you really have to wonder. Liberal radio personalities don't do so well in the ratings whereas conservative ones like Rush Limbaugh do quite well. I think it's a case of the group in power screaming "discrimination!" It appears this happens in politics as well as religion. | |

Posted: 9/8/2008 4:01:48 PM | I'm always amused at how the criticisms of American media works.
If the media is critical of the government when they point out an actual error or inconsistency on the part of the administration. They're considered biased.
When fox parrots the answers to soft ball questions by Jeff Gannon, it's unbiased. or somehow biased better. | |

Posted: 9/8/2008 4:14:02 PM | The only real 'media bias' I acknowledge is their bias in favor of doing whatever it takes to get people to watch... if the country refused to watch anything that spouted 'liberal values' then the media would shift to the 'right'.
Regardless of what people claim to want in public... they tell the real truth when they turn on the television.
It's like that old question, 'if the country is really full of people longing for 'christian values' and conservative social agendas... who is buying all the porn and drugs?' | |

Posted: 9/8/2008 5:26:25 PM | Liberal media. What utter rubbish. But an expected talking point by the rupugnican ditto heads.
http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2008/09/08/msnbc/
The bias in the press, right leaning as it is, is obvious based on who pulls their strings, which corporations OWN that media and their fear of drawing the wrath of those in power. They wouldn't know liberal bias if they fell over it because it just isn't there. Just like the bridge to nowhere. Anyone who falls for the "liberal press bias" needs to have their heads examined.
Follow the money folks. When major corporations serve up the news, who's corner are they in? Follow the money. The right wing would have you believe that anyone but Rush Limbaug and that bloviated Bill O' are liberal. How funny is that. | |

Posted: 9/9/2008 2:12:33 AM | What does the term Liberal Media mean to you? That's a tough question! Let's narrow it down to facts and see what happens?
http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/09/08/editor-defends-use-of-codepink-members-in-independent-focus-group/
A Detroit Free Press editor expressed regret Monday that left-wing and anti-war activists were included in a focus group of so-called independent voters the newspaper interviewed during the political conventions, but said he didn’t see the harm in having a “radical leftist or two” in the group.
In response to questions posed to the would-be independent panel, two members of the anti-war group CodePink — as well as two other liberal activists — offered praise of Barack Obama after his Democratic presidential nomination acceptance speech. A week later they turned the tables and ripped into Republican Sarah Palin’s vice presidential nomination acceptance speech. Their comments appeared online and were excerpted in the Free Press’ print edition.
or maybe something on this line might help

MSNBC shake-up: Olbermann and Matthews no longer anchoring
Less than two weeks ago, MSNBC president Phil Griffin was still defending the network's anchor team to Politico, despite reports of turmoil behind-the-scenes and on-air squabbles. At the time, a high-ranking MSNBC journalist told me the network was "about to blow up."
Well, here's the blow up! The NY Times reports tonight that Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann will no longer anchor during upcoming political news events, as network insiders reveal more about what's been happening.
To fix the problem they will use David Gregory...a "real" unbiased new anchor and journalist.
Two examples of media fairness one newspaper and one broadcast. I would have used a NYT example but due to subscribers bailing, talks of being sold, and failing revenue I didn't. But there are plenty of other we could talk about!! | |

I don't watch it too much and don't remember if they are anchoring or analysts.
They were reported to remain as the latter for political news events. | |

Posted: 9/30/2008 7:06:13 AM | I think they anchor their shows ~ ~ I am sometimes embrassed the way they hammer and hammer away ~ at little things ~ just like Fox News has done for years,
oh well ~ what comes around ~ goes around ~
They are eating Palin up! ~ and she giving them the material. and so has McCain. ~
McCain reminds me of a 4 years old in a carnival ride where the little cars go around and around ~ the only thing that really works is the horn! He 's a beeping away!
His mouth and ego is killing him! ~ Is the liberal media to blame? ~ yea sure ~ they are broadcasting his statements and postering ~ as they change by the minute.
He is out of control, and he never really had it. ~ It's all ego ~ the little banney rooster feeds on ego ~ and the events that are unfolding today are ego busters!
and not one person ~ is now in charge or in control of ~ anything. ~
This bail -out is "not" popular! ~ and government is attempt to sell a package ~ that few want. ~
I just prefer them to all ~~ go home! ~ and ~ let the house of cards all fall down.
Let this adminstration baste in their victory and glory ~ they dove us in the ditch. ~
In 50 days ~ allow the new adminstration come in and build from the ground up.
Dig through the ashes and find things worth saving. ~
Wall street started with a bang today ~ people are buying in low ~ hopful and seeing quick gains. ~ they gamble on the bill to pass thursday.
