Just heard on Fox News that some band has been banned from playing at some place anymore because one of the singers made a joke about GWBush's legs between songs.
I just can't wait until the 9'x16' oil paintings of Dubya in that fdorky flight suit start popping up in town squares across America, and roving gangs of "Young Republicans" are given carte blanch to beat those overheard speaking ill of the Unholy Trinity (Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld)...

That seems about right. Sorry I didn't catch the details - I don't usually pay much attention to FOXnews but I was flipping through the channels and they were showing a video of Bush jogging, so I stopped. Didn't catch/remember the name of the place (I'm thinking they said Borders, apparently some of the larger ones host bands now and then?) or where it happened, but yes - the band was banned form playing there again because of remarks made by the singer re: Bush's legs...

quote: I don't have the direct link, but that is available on the Spinsanity website. Coulter claimed, for example, this supposed bias because, I believe it was the Times, used the phrase "right-wing" x-number of times while it only used the phrase "left-wing" some much less number of times. The Spinsanity article did the same search Coulter did, and she was right in numbers only - most of the time "right-wing" was used it was in the Sports section, which Coulter neglected to inform her readers. Typical conservative disinformation. [This message has been edited by SLPx, 07-28-2003]

No kidding - when?
I lived there 1994-1999. Small world... Yes, I re,member when O'really? did Inside Edition. Another bastion of journalistic integrity. Now, I don't listen to his radio show on purpose, but one day, while I was waiting to pick my kid up at school, for some reason the only station that would come in was the one airing his show. In that 10 minute or so torture, I remember hearing at least 5 things that were false, alas, I don't recall all of them. But one thing did stick in my mind - he said something about having "been in 4 wars" to preotect our "freedom" in this country. That sounded like bullshit right off the bat. What '4 wars' did he have in mind, I wonder? Wasn't he doing IE when the first Gulf War happened? So, it wasn't GW1 or GW2. He isn't old enough to have been in WW2 or Korea. Nam? Maybe. What other wars are there? Does anyone know if he was even in the military?

Interesting, but...
quote: Problem: It was Marines in Lebanon, Army in Grenada and panama, and not the same units.quote: Libya was an Air Force thing, and only a handful of F-111s were involved.quote: O'Really was on TV during Haiti, and 'advisors' don't count (unless you are a conservative trying to pump up your patriotism scale).quote: In the end, it is possible that he took part in 4 military exercises - providing he was in the Marines, the Army, and the Air Force. That or, far more likely, he is just a lying right-winger trying to make himself appear more 'rugged'...

O'Really has been in journalism for "30 years", according to himself on a C-Span book review clip I just watched.
So, I think it is obvious that O'Really just plain lied.

Q - I didn't say you said XY or Z. I just commented on your scenarios.
Sheesh... No need to attack each other just because there are no worthy opponants around...

He and I were discussing writing a grant together at one point, but it sort of fell through - he ended up getting a fellowship of some sort to go to Eritrea.
He is a good guy.
