:101: semantics

I used the wrong word, it wasn’t “responsibility” the official House Republicans used, it was “obligation”:

I want someone to monitor this guy, and please let us all know when he gets swept away in a future round of NYT firings. We’ve got to start noting and celebrating these things.

No, not for talk radio. For the pages of the New York Times. An editorial written by Republican presidential hopeful McCain has been rejected by the NEW YORK TIMES — less than a week after the paper published an essay……

The New York Times should be ridiculed constantly; at that paper, they are not journalists but rather nothing more than pretentious left wing propagandists.

And this is nothing new.

I hadn’t payed attention to the New York Times before, and a few years back I heard some negative reaction to something Ann Coulter said. Something like “too bad timothy McVeigh didn’t take down the New York Times building.” and the people were livid with her advocacy of destroying the building filled with Americans. And at first I wondered who this insane far right idiot was.

I never really liked her all that much, but she is quite justified in most of her statements that are designed to shock and infuriate the left. When you understand where she is coming from, paying attention to what these cretins have been doing for decades … it makes a little more sense as to why she would say this.

The New York Times is one of the leaders of what Bill O’Reilly calls the culture war. They’ve done everything from advocating for and being apologists for every liberal politician, helping to give away America’s secrets to the enemy in the form of identifying classified information that is damaging to president Bush and everything else under the sun.

They are propagandists, and they will never be charged with their many crimes of sedition.

Contrast the rejection of the McCain rebuttal op-ed with the publication of the MoveOn.org attack on the gifted General Petraeus.

The New York Times should be ridiculed constantly; at that paper, they are not journalists but rather nothing more than pretentious left wing propagandists.

Then they should press FEC to pursue illegal corporate campaign contribution (I’m sure the going rate for that much coverage is over $2600) charges against the NYT!!

he wont vote for McCain then no reason to post here..

I had not realised that you had to be voting for McCain to be allowed to comment here. When was that rule passed?

Republican, democrat,or Independent,no one thinks the press does a good job of getting the people the facts on domestic or international issues.

Yet they are still so effective because so many people live on a “15 minute” news cycle.Catch a headline,a news break,or David letterman and the average person thinks they are getting the facts.

Try discussing “Bush lied”,”Plame CIA issue”,”Saddam’s ties to terrorist”,”Saddam’s WMD program”,”Genocide in Iraq”,”Haliburton”,”Bush’s ties to Oil industry”,”the Surge”
and it is amazing how little the person who screams the loudest knows about any of these subjects.They pretty much parrot hollywood and John Stewart.

This is why a Senator from Chicago who has accomplished nothing and shown incredibly bad judgment whether it be Rev.Wright,Ayers,negotiations with foreign terrorist dictators, or the surge, is being touted as the savior of the world and getting closer and closer to being the leader of the most powerful nation on Earth.

Problem is all the butt kissing and spinning in the world can not cover up him reversing the gains in Iraq,possibly starting a war in Pakistan,letting Iran acquire Nukes,pushing Isolationism,and taxing this nation into a “real” recession.

How can we debate issues of the day in the NYT if you have to agree with the Times position in order to get printed.

Chakra Hammer on July 21, 2008 at 8:59 PM

why would you say that? do you prefer the echo chamber as opposed to the clash of ideas?

Chakra Hammer on July 21, 2008 at 8:59 PM

Being a hard-assed conservative, I’m no big fan of McCain, but saying that McCain “attacks all the time” is just a typical whining partisan defense of that useless weak piece o’crap that my beloved nation is getting shoved down its throat by the MSM and the Left.
I wish McCain would attack him and his dangerous socialistic policies all the time and 24/7. Not to do so would simply be traitorous.

TexasJew on July 21, 2008 at 8:57 PM

he wont vote for McCain not reason to post here..

What freaking Democraptastic planet are you on, troll?

I bet they would run this

I don’t understand why they want an op-ed that “mirrors” Obama’s; that doesn’t make much sense.

I’ll never vote for McCain, but he should focus more on his accomplishments. He has too much going for him, and he has an impressive legacy, but he minimizes those qualities by attacking all the time.

“Dear Senator McCain,

Why cant you be more like Senator Obama?

Try again.

Sincerely,
NYT”

Screw these traitorous little Times pimps and their declining readership, falling stock values and waning intelligence.

All the news that’s fit to spit… out.
