    Exactly. Because they're idiots, morons and imbeciles. We've come full circle now.

    Right. Got it. .... thinks a circuit board with wires on it is a bomb, can't find North America on a globe, thinks there's such a thing as a 4th trimester, wants Obama to support ISIS.

    So long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh

    Hey! We're watching an eclipse here! (musters up my best Chandler Bing...) Could you BE any more off topic?

    Yeah, well, these are the same students who, in videos from the same MRC TV, signed a petition supporting 4th Trimester Abortions, a petition asking Obama to stop bombing ISIS and to support them instead, hoping that if we stop bombing them they'll stop beheading people, and they can't find...

    I don't know why you would be, since without you producing the full quote you will never get any links showing Munro's past actions. And since you know you can't produce the full quote, there ya go.

    Tipping

    Some people do. I don't, because tips are not how they're paid. Nothing wrong with giving someone some money if you want to, though. As for the follow up question, my guess is that it's because he only showers at Petros and TAs. For myself, personally, I only shower at Flying Js and Pilots, so...

    So long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh

    If you're not out there by 8:11, you definitely want to be out there by 9:07. That's when the shadow arc will begin covering the Moon. By 10:11 the Moon will totally be in shadow. The Moon once again begins to reveal itself at 11:23.

    Reading comprehension. I don't think that, nor did I say that. What I said was, it's not "good journalistic" practice to seek comment from someone if you think they won't comment. Unless they're the subject of the investigation journalism in which you are you are engaged. In this case, if you...

    Didn't think you'd answer the question. You never do. What part of the following do you not understand: "She likely couldn't care less. If she was misquoted or a fake quote was attributed to her on a real news site, then she might say something. But on a news Blog where she wasn't defamed...

    Coming from someone who thinks Brietbart is a trusted source of news, that statement really doesn't carry much weight. Jumping? No. It's a very deliberate process used to reach conclusions. You have ASSUMED that that's what I did, and then jumped to your own conclusion, and isn't that funny, But...

    Plain English from our government?

    Yeah, if mean, "Lookit, we JUST did the same thing across the street less than 5 years ago. The environmental impact of this project is the same as that project, so there's no reason to waste time and money on doing a new impact study. Take the study from the other project, slap this name and...

    Yes I do. No it doesn't. Journalist virtually always describe how they got the information, especially if it is by phone or email You don't know what you're talking about. That's not why it's most often done, nor is that how it's most often done. And it's not part of Journalism 101 or any other...

    Now you're sounding like a 5 year old. That or seriously unbalanced. You think Brietbart actually contacted anyone at the school for the story? :JC-hysterical: If they had, they would have said so. Someone farts in Texas and "Breitbart Texas" gets the reporting credit. Brietbart is very big on...

    Trying real hard? With Breitbart? No. Don't even have to try. It's right there. I think you just have a problem with someone pointing out and accurately describing the slop you've been lapping up. I know I shouldn't be surprised, but even though I'm seeing it first hand, it's still hard to...

    It's the Yellow Journalism paradigm. It's been refined a lot thanks to the Internet, but it's still basically the same thing, only easier to get away with and more people take it at face value as being true.

    The Trump Card...

    Any analogy between personal debt and government debt is a spurious one. It's spurious for many reasons, but the one big one is the Fed can buy back public debt, but an individual cannot do that. Personal debt for a house or a child's education is fine, as long as the family is careful about...

    Winter Driving???

    Others, I'm sure, feel differently, but in expediting I think winter tires are a waste of money. For the most part, after it snows the roads are cleared rather quickly, so you aren't driving on roads where you actually need snow tires. Granted, even days after the main roads are clear, there can...

    They don't need facts and stuff, they can pick and choose, and make the rest up. Look at how the article is written. Right off the top in the subhead there's "the boy who brought the suspected hoax-bomb to his Texas school..." Not "accused of bringing," but flatly "brought." That implies he...
