National Talk/News Shows

[zoe10850]

Have any of you watched shows like Real Time with Bill Mahrer ? Now that is an eye opener. He rants about everything liberal and downs any one who disagrees.

How dare we torture captives by embarrassing them, but wacking off heads on tv is okay because they were wronged.

We better not mess w/Iran because they are tougher than Iraq.

People in Iran are not so bad because they want to kill us.

Pope should be shot for his remarks about Islam.

Osama is not such a bad guy because he gives us a warning before he does his "mischief". Hey, he lost a son after 9/11, so he lost something also. He warned us to get out of Iraq, and because we did not, he has our tacit permission to kill 12 million people.

Bush took 8 minutes to react to 9/11 but the fact that clinton was offered Osama and refused is justified.

We should welcome the people who cross our borders and march in this country under the flag of Mexico. It is okay that they refuse to learn our language. We should inter-marry and that will resolve the ethnic problems of this country.

This is representative of the "liberal" plan for this country. I am not making this up, you should watch this.

Zoe, I am a big fan of Bill Maher's show on HBO. I watch it every week. Granted, I don't agree with his opinions, but he does make me laugh. His argument for leaving illegal immigrants from Mexico alone was because "Latin chicks are hot!"

I remember a few years ago, the NY Times was backing the artist that made a portrait of Mary out of manure. The Times pretty much said that people are allowed to express themselves. Fine. No problem. When the cartoon of Allah appeared in a Danish newspaper, the NY Times stated how it was insensitive to the Muslim religion. How come the Muslims get defended, but the Christians have to deal with it? It's probably because Conservatives are associated with Christianity and the liberal media looks to stick it to them in any way possible. That is why Liberals aren't in power in the U.S.

I watched that program. Did you notice that Gloria Steinem talks with her teeth closed ?

Seriously, I was disturbed by the slant and also the audience reaction. Do a lot of people really feel that way about this country ? Do they not realize that the institution they object to is the very institution that allows them to say what they say ? Try that in Iran.

I am a democrat, but people like that make me ashamed to admit it. And no Bill, Osama is not a kind peaceful man.
