Democrats sentenced for tire slashing on election day
 

"A congresswoman's son and three Democratic campaign workers were sentenced Wednesday to four to six months in jail for slashing tires outside a Bush-Cheney campaign office on Election Day 2004."

Yet Gwen Moore announced that she is still proud of her son ???:confused:
"I love my son very much. I'm very proud of him," Moore said.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Isn't that typical:rolleyes:

hahaha,

damn hippies

hahaha

Old news.

I bet Tom Delay wishes he had just slashed tires. That's just a misdemeanor.

I bet Libby wishes the same.

Old news? The sentencing was yesterday. :confused:

Oh!!! You are going by Bush's new police state rules. This is before then, where charges were brought up, investigated, and went to trial first. :D

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I guess I'm done in this thread too.

Dude, you seriously need therapy.

Agree
 

Foaming at the mouth and totally out of touch with reality. Don't you know that the likes of Kerry, Gore, Dean and Clinton just love people like him that absorb every bit of dogma they put out and never listen to reason or consider alternatives. So sad, when obviously intelligent in other matters.:confused:

I think we may need to adopt a no political discussions rule on this forum


First, both dems and republicans have "mindless followers" hell, I'd say that 70+ % of the nation is filled with people who will just agree with whatever they hear, without thinking about it. Don't try to say "oh, thats a liberal thing" because it isn't.

Second, If you had a child, and they did something stupid, are you going to turn your back on them and give them the boot? No, you wouldn't (or at least if you would you probably shouldn't have kids in the first place). I guaruntee that the "I'm proud of my son" is not in direct response to slashing tires. Throwing quotes around anywhere is dumb, and is pure rhetoric. Conservatives seem to love doing this though, as it is half of most campaigns. (Not saying that liberals don't, you just see it a little less frequently)

Slashing tires in general is dumb, however I cannot imagine getting that much jail time for something so... repairable. Even if it was policitally tied.

From the very beginning, no one has shown an alternative and the last struggling 34% of you have no other answers than ehhh... better than Clinton. You guys really need to watch something other than Fox. It isn't a rosy picture, and it hasn't been this bad for decades.

But you guys just keep grasping on to that dream. It's your dream. I'm looking at reality and hoping the budget, Iraq, the increased terrorist threat, and the corruption can get fixed without it tearing the middleclass into pieces.

You guys can go away and hide. It worked for Hitler, and his people. Some of us though are going to keep battling for our country to remain free and safe.

Credibility?
 

It is statements like this that totally ruin your credibility. While many of the FOX reporters tend to be more conservative, they at least provide BOTH sides of the issue at the same time with Rep and Dem representatives on air at the same time and given equal talking time to present their side. NO OTHER news channel provides this balanced reporting. Others simply provide the liberal view and rarely give you anything from the other side.

It is your fear (and other Liberals) of the FOX balanced reporting that causes you to hate them so much. Anyone capable of thinking and forming their own opinions KNOW that FOX provides balanced news. I hate to hear the extreme liberals they have on there, but I get both sides.

I do also watch CNN and MSNBC to get different views of the same subjects.
The regular news channels of CBS and ABC are a total waste of time.

Just a random input here...
When did FOX news become credible? Possibly Im out of date here, but the last time I had seen ANYTHING on fox news was one of the news brief / commercial things. It said, and I quote DIRECTLY

"The air you breathe can kill you. Find out where your at risk tonight at 10"
Talk about yellow journalism
Frankly, its things like this that make me trust the weekly workd news for more credible stories.At least they would ADMIT they are illegitimate
But, mabey things changed. I dunno, I have prettymuch been avoiding the news like the plauge, for obvious reasons

Eric, you know my feelings on this.

I will have to mention the fact that Fox News, to me, provides the least credible and truthful reporting. Please note that this is my opinion. They do what they need for ratings. They sell you news. "Man killed in his own apartment" "baby left in dumpster". "THE WAR ON TERROR"

While these are stories are reported on everyday by other networks, and some of them being mostly truthful, I cannot help but notice that Fox Networks News programs are quite gripping, but quite swayed at the same time. Spin alley, Fear TV, Fear News, whatever you call it..... I would contribute the factor of them getting their bad republican.... i mean reputation, not only from their swayed reporting, but of the support they get from the republicans (appointing Tony Snow of Fox to the press secretary position in replacement of Scott Mclellan) and the fact that it contributes significantly, resulting in them becoming one of the leading names in news for many Americans.

Just my $.02

Prediction
 

As we all know the major charges against DeLay have all been dismissed and I make a prediction that IF the last charges come to court that he will be found NOT Guilty. I even suspect that they will be dismissed prior to trial.

Name One
 

Name one other channel that has viewpoints from BOTH sides on nearly every issure reported. Waiting--give me specific examples. I can watch FOX tonight and give you specifics examples and names of D and R representatives addressing the issue. I challenge you to do the same from ANY OTHER channel.
