Yes I agree only by working together can we create the kind of hate that is so, so very needed. You see I sometimes wonder if evil will ever be punished,yes I know it's wrong to doubt.But now Fox is being punished for it's crimes against viewers and all I can say is Fck Fox!

My dear, you are sadly mistaken if you believe there is such thing as a "left-wing" propaganda machine. TV networks are owned by the rich are the rich are inherently conservative. You should read a book called: What Liberal Media?
[/political debate]



You should recheck the figures. The rich are not inherently conservative. If you look to campaign contributions from the last election, you will note that it was Gore and the Democratic party who received the most from individuals in the top tax brackets. Not just a little more, but far and above what Bush received. The facts are pretty clear... the rich, these days at least, are mostly Democrats.

As to Fox news; it's definitely a conservative spin. I actually prefer CNN, because they have a liberal spin and its easier for me to fish the truth out of something I disagree with than it is with a more appetizing story. I could cite numerous examples of blatant slant, but I won't.

It's not really germane anyway, so I should just let it lie. I get frustrated when people spew the 'conservatives are rich' propaganda without looking at the real numbers, and apologize to everyone for the aside. This is all pretty irrelevant since Fox network and Fox's cable news network aren't anymore associated than Fox and the media establishment of Australia and Europe that is mostly run by NewsCorp too.

All of which is to say, YAY! Dropping ratings means a strategy switch. Fox has always been the master of the overly-hasty programmnig strategy switch, so we should see fewer reality shows soon. The bad news, of course, is that even if they stumble onto something good, chances are it won't last long either.

If only our nation stopped funding other nations be they Israel or South Korea what a wonderfull world we could live in. No one would be mad at us for messing with others affairs. Just send all our troops home to defend our own borders sounds good to me. Not likely with the bonesmen vs. bonesmen election though. Either way expect more war.

For those not in the know both Kerry and Bush are both members of skull and bones a secret society based out of Yale. They meet in a tomb on Yale campus and graduate 15 members a year and slightly over 300 are still alive. And two are running against each other for President. Can you get any more anti-democratic?

The mainstream media the "newz" channels would tell everyone but there is to much important Laci Peterson news oh well.

Oh yeah,as I was saying Fck Fox!

Right on. Let's leave all the ungrateful foreigners to their own devices, and they can stop bothering us with their holier-than-thou, we-know-better-than-you-foolish-Americans nonsense.

While I'm talking about the gibbering fools overseas, I wouldn't want to exclude our own electorate. The whole notion of "Democrats" versus "Republicans", or "Liberals" versus "Conservatives" is meaningless. It only matters to those of us in the trenches, not to the the clowns in power. It's all smoke and mirrors, and it keeps the foolish sheep down here on the ground from focusing their beer-and-reality-TV-soaked eyes on the important issues in play.

So, in conclusion, let's just worry about pushing "Firefly" to the ignorant among us

They can have my "Firefly" DVDs when they pry them from my cold, dead fingers....

Oh yeah, you, FOX TV!!

Sorry but what is secret about it? It had to let women in because of public equal rights lawsuits and it's fairly prestigious. You can find out about it on the Discovery Channel and there have been far too many movies based on it.

Yes it's known but try to get Bush or Kerry to talk about it they won't. Movies based about it do you mean The Skulls? And yes they did let women in. How does that mean what goes on is open to the public? Isn't that important in a public official? I think it is and I don't want a President who is a member of a secret society.

Kerry on Meet the Press was asked about it and he refused to talk about it. Bush has been asked about it he refuses to talk about it. Fine you want to think this is just a college club fine. I think it's a wee bit more powerfull than that. A club that graduates only 15 members a year and two of them are running for President. And if Kerry wins it will mean out of the four last Presidents 3 will have been bonesmen.

And yes you and I may have the Discovery channel and watch it too. But the truth is most Americans are clueless about skull and bones. And the mainstream media for the most part does not cover this.

My point is I think this is way more than a club this is an orginization that brings real power. Yes it's on the Discovery channel but most folks don't have that and I be a little less creeped out by the whole thing if I saw or heard it often in mainstream media but I don't

Tangent!

My uncle was in Skull and Bones... I have his pin; a skull & crossbones with a number on it. If this 'secret society' is running the country, why the hell is he still working @ Boeing?

End Tangent!

Ok... go se FOX (spit!) used to be a cool network. All the cool shows were on it. What the hell happened?

Other shows being cancelled in the light of Reality Blowback...

Who Wants to Marry a Horse: 18 lovely ladies are competing for the chance at the alter, or should we say Halter?

executioners: From the makers of 'cops', comes the exciting world of the doctor who injects inmates, only we have added a twist! We have swapped the sodium pentothal normally used for lethal injections with a harmless saline solution. Watch as hilarity ensues...

Roads Scholar: What will happen when we take someone with an IQ of 182, put them together with Paris Hilton (IQ 60), and handcuff them together for a laugh-a-minute trip across the US in a Yugo?

HEY! FOX (spit!)

I call her "Vera"

All that I'm saying is that it isn't secret. The fact that the whole damn world knows about it means it isn't secret.

Now if I were trying to rule the world I wouldn't have half the people let in be ones who will never have any influence, I wouldn't run it on campus, and I wouldn't do interviews with every moron with a camera that came by.

I would keep it very secret or make is so public you couldn’t miss it every single day. Then I would have the tabloids, which I would own as a result of my money, run stories about us. After that I would make sure that no other source said anything.

If the National Inquirer runs the story but the Discovery Channel doesn’t it’s a secret, it’s a secret because anyone trying to seriously bring it into the light will be laughed back into the dark. If you can find records of who is in it, turn on your TV any given week and see a story on it, it isn’t secret.


I don’t know, Maybe it is heinous, I doubt it but it could be. I do know that it is definitively not secret.



Damn my former secret is out, now everyone knows to check the tabloids to see my plans for world domination. Damn.

WOW What a thread, and can I just respond to this:

>>>IMHO, I think we in the USA should become totally isolationist, since all we do is piss off every other country every time we do anything overseas. Of course, that would also involve eliminating foreign aid, pulling the thousands of troops we have stationed overseas back to our own borders,<<<

You say that like it's a bad thing? You don't acknowledge all the other troops that aren't american that are out there dying needlessly also. More of the British soldiers who died were killed by so called friendly fire than by the enemy!! How grateful should they be.

Anyhoo, to FOX for their stupidity! And I hope they never pick up a decent show again.

Lastly, This thread is quite, QUITE, disturbing. I thought I was on the wrong board for a minute! Keep it shiny eh?

I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are, for a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star
