The question should be, "And how would they determine that he was pulling a prank or a hoax bomb?" The burden of proof is on the accuser, Senator McCarthy. Sheeeeeeesh.

Right. Like I said, "liberal is OK, and partisan is OK, as long as you're not toooo partisan, and as long as you keep it to yourself." No real need to reword it, as I got it the first time. I even said so at the time. The entire purpose of a Headline is to get people to read the story. The...

You're the one making the smidgen of thought argument that a bunch of wires in a briefcase with a timer looked like a bomb, not me. And after it was determined that it wasn't a prank or a hoax bomb, they suspended him anyway.

Like my grandfather always said, "Never skimp on tires or batteries." For the long drives, I use an Oregon Aero portable Softseat (with the full cushion back). It's designed for aviation, but works perfectly for what he do. I first got just the cushion with the lumbar support, but immediately...

Correct. Islamophobes do not use even a smidgen of thought. Their thought process is Muslim = terrorist with a bomb, which isn't even a though process, it's just there, all the time, 24 hours a day. If they had used even the tiniest smidgen of thought they would have been able to recognize that...

It's an excellent example of it. I don't know why it's so hard to spot it when it's so blatantly obvious. But people who can't see it, or maybe they just don't care as long as it soothes their political soul, will read it and believe that it's actually news and that it's actually true. But, then...

Oh, dood, EO doesn't have that kind of server space, even for just the links!

Why would Jews try and stop the sale of pork? Kashrut law only prevents Jews (who observe a Kosher diet) from eating pork, not from selling it or otherwise being involved in its provision. Orthodox Jews have no objection to non-Jews eating pork, or to doing anything to help them to do so.

That's funny. You know why it's funny? Becuz it's truuuuu. :D Still, today, my favorite defense statement made by conservatives is (as is noted in the article), the clock, like totally, looked like a bomb and therefore the school reacted in the proper manner, doing exactly what they should to...

Yahoo didn't fire him because of his views, extremist or otherwise, they fired him because of his comments. But I wanna make sure I'm understanding you right. Liberal is OK, and partisan is OK, as long as you're not toooo partisan, and as long as you keep it to yourself. Got it. Oh, I read it...

Yeah, well, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Yes you did. With a surprising link to Breitbart about it. And I commented on it. I'm still not sure why you think that's important. It is because he's the Political News Director and he's not non-partisan? Or worse, a liberal? Do you think the Political News Director at ANY news organization...

I have differentiated between the two, in this thread and others. Agenda driven news is a distinct, quantifiable thing that is easily spotted. It's taught in journalism school and journalism classes, how to easily spot it and how to avoid it, and it has been for decades. You think it's the exact...

I haven't tried to. He's certainly not on the level your typical political activist, since he's not particularly all that active, and we didn't hear a peep out of him during the Irving mayor's islamophobic extravaganza. Plus, you've already told me that you believe religious activism and...

Well in that case you nailed it.

When you say "author Robert Spencer," do you mean the same Robert Spencer who founded Jihad Watch (an agenda driven blog, BTW) who's BFF is Pamela Gellar? The "debate" was a setup where Jihad Watch invited Mohamed Elhassan Mohamed to appear on Jihad Watch's Web site for their "news" broadcast...

Not exactly in the bullseye of the topic, though.

Not it isn't. It doesn't even take 5 minutes of a newscast to know whether they are agenda driven. It's really, really easy to spot, if you know what it is. I don't recall ever saying that CNN should be a trusted news source, and I know for a stone cold fact that I've not said it in this thread...

You can write in any name you want. ANY name you want.
