allthumbs Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 Let's do a "what if" so I can make a point. I think it's a good one. I think it's so good, I'd like to hear from anyone who disagrees. What if a show like Dateline did a "hatchet job" on George W. Bush? It wouldn't have to really be a hatchet job, but any honest appraisal of (what many call) that idiot's qualifications would prove he's a non-thinking rich man's boy - and that's all. But what would happen if Dateline did an unflattering portrait of Bush? I'll tell you what would happen: The vulgar Pigboy would spend at least three hours saying it wasn't true and he'd offer hours of rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Bill O'Reilly would spend at least an hour on his show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Sean Hannity would walk all over Alan Colmes for an hour that night, saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Eva Von Zahn would spend at least an hour that night saying it wasn't true and she'd offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. The Beltway Boys would spend at least an hour that night saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Brit Hume and Tony Snow would spend at least an hour on Sunday saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Juan Williams and Mara Liason would spend their entire allotted time saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. John McLaughlin would spend at least an hour on his syndicated show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Chris the Screamer would spend at least an hour on his show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. G. Gordon Liddy would spend at least three hours on his radio show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Laura the Whore would spend at least an hour on her radio show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Michael Medved would spend at least an hour on his radio show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Sam and Cokie would spend at least an hour on This Whore saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. George (Judas Maximus) Steffi and George (dumb as a chimp) Will would spend their entire allotted time swearing that it wasn't true. Bob Scheiffer would spend at least an hour on Face the Whore saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Tim the Catholic would spend at least an hour on Meet the Whore saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. John Hockenberry would spend at least an hour on his show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Ollie North would spend at least an hour on his radio show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Robert Novak would spend at least an hour on his cable TV show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Paul Weyrich would spend at least an hour on his cable TV show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Still with me? We're close to the end... BSNBC's Brian Williams would spend at least an hour on his show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Wolf the Whore would spend at least an hour on his show saying it wasn't true and offer rebuttal as to why Dateline was lying. Bill Schneider and Candy Crowley would do an hour special on CCN (Clinton Cock Network) saying it wasn't true, and offering rebuttal. John Stossel would have a special on ABC: Is lying OK for liberals? Then Howie Kurtz would spend 30 minutes on Reliable Sources asking if the media wasn't being too hard on a developmently-disabled child. Ann Coulter would write a book condemning Dateline. Laura Ingraham would write a book condemning Dateline. Peggy Noonan would write a book condemning Dateline. Andrew Sullivan would write a book condemning Dateline. William Safire would write a book condemning Dateline. OK, we're going to call the above "Exhibit A." Now, everyone on that list has done at least a dozen hit pieces on Clinton. My question is, Where is "Exhibit B?" When those 38 people attack Clinton and his cock, who does the rebuttal? Even you ditto-sheep have to admit that nobody on that list has EVER defended a fabricated lie against the president. There is no "Exhibit B," because there are so few liberal voices on television. The closest you can get is Eleanor on McLaughlin or Geraldo, but there is barely a liberal whisper on television, even though there are DOZENS of right-wing, Smirk-apologist shows whose livelyhood is lying about liberals. I don't think you ditto-heads can offer an answer. Prove me wrong. bartcop@bartcop.com <bartcop@bartcop.com> Quote

MtnGoat Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 "OK, we're going to call the above "Exhibit A." " Sorry, a self constructed proof of what "would" happen simply is not equivalent to actual evidence. You may as well claim an episode of West Wing is equivalent to actual evidence. "Now, everyone on that list has done at least a dozen hit pieces on Clinton." Are the "hit pieces" factual? I've seen many folks defending Gores lying call actually looking up his lies, smearing or "attacking" gore. "When those 38 people attack Clinton and his cock, who does the rebuttal?" Who can defend a chief executive who signs sexual harassment legislature, the favorite darling of the feminist establishment, for doing what in every other case the same people mercilessly attack? Packwood was crucified for far less, feminists have claimed any "relationship" in which a power imbalance exists cannot be truly consensual.... and now, gee, it's one free grope, blowjobs aren't sex, and the meaning of "is" can't really be determined. If you want to defend this, have at it. That some others won't, says more about you than it does about them. "Even you ditto-sheep have to admit that nobody on that list has EVER defended a fabricated lie against the president." Show us some of the fabricated lies. "There is no "Exhibit B," because there are so few liberal voices on television. " There wasn't even an exhibit A, only a fictional list of what you claimed would happen, supposed to serve as evidence. "even though there are DOZENS of right-wing, Smirk-apologist shows whose livelyhood is lying about liberals." Lying? What a joke! How can you lie about people who think they are the smartest and nicest and therefore think other folks need to be taxed and told what to do for their own good in so, so many areas of life scarcely any escape notice? This isn't lying, it's bringing what you really believe to the fore. You just don't like the scrutiny. Quote
Fairweather Posted January 9, 2003 Posted January 9, 2003 Many of those listed in "exibit A" are actually liberals. Mara Liasson and Juan Williams to name two. The difference is this: Most, if not all conservative pundits readily ADMIT their conservatism. With the exception of Donohue, the liberal mainstream media hides behind a cloak of "objectivity", presenting editorials as "news". Trask, can you honestly tell me that NPR is unbiased? Quote
Dwayner Posted January 9, 2003 Posted January 9, 2003 Did someone say Laura Ingraham? HELLO!!!! Quote
