News & Events - October 2007

I mean really....the conservatives have their own network (Fox News) and are adding a second (Fox Business). The radio airwaves are filled with conservative pundits on all of the Clear Channel radio stations (Limbaugh, Hannity, Savage, Medved, Dr. Laura). Even the stations that are more middle of the road have several far right commentators. CNN has Glenn Beck. MSNBC has Tucker Carlson and Joe Scarborough.

Meanwhile, the "liberal media" has the New York Times and Air America (which has been relegated by Clear Channel to the weakest stations they can find).

I don't get it.

I read an article right now on Foxnews.com which I cannot believe!!! It says every major terrorist organization has contacts in Northern N.J. (except the Taliban) but instead of apprehending them they are either deported, told they will be deported, or warned that they are being watched.

This also includes members of Al Queda!!!

I watched Dr. Phil today and can certainly understand their view. I almost feel like going out and buying the book just to burn it.
I had watched Oprah when she interviewed Nicole's sister and she was so opposed to the books publication. Nowhere in that interview was it revealed that the children had signed off and were due to receive royalties had the book been published differently.
These children should be getting money from the same civil suit as the Goldman's and so far their father has proved himself for what he is by finding ways to cheat them out of that.
Sentence the man for any crime you can hang on him and it's not soon enough. How many people think like me?

She said it was time for a Palestinian State now. It seems like the last time they voted, Hamas the terrorist group won the election hands down. Is this really in our best interest?

We know that the government are treating the Madeleine McCann case as "politically sensitive". Could this be the reason why and if so, isn't it time the opposition started asking questions.
