This Navy Seal Coming out about killing UBL

Therefore I discount anything she says. The same goes for every woman on the Supreme Court.

Sorry, but that's the truth, Ruth.

I dunno, I dig those doilies she rocks around her neck.

Ah yeah, I forgot that he opted to leave before he hit the marker. I suppose that was his choice.

20 years seems like a lot for people who are active duty at war. It doesn't take 20 years at war to put someone in a position where they are going to need medical attention for the rest of their life.

Since it is the Wash Post and Fox News...

Well we disagree the first and loudest critics have been former and current members of the military. I'm not criticising him but I do watch the news and everyone I see who is attacking him is a current or former member of the military. If you want to believe this is only a story because of the media outlet that ran with the story thats ok but that's not reality.

...it's kind of hard to be ideological. My point was not that this is a story just because one outlet is pushing it, but rather would there be more blowback if this was two media outlets on one side of the issue rather than one on each.

EG, if Fox News and NewsMax ran with it, would MSNBC be barking like mad dogs?

Or if Wash Post and MSNBC ran with it, would Fox be flogging it?

I tend to agree with what the general sentiment here is, that someone somewhere would flog anyone for reporting on a new apple strudel recipe as clear evidence that the reporting entity is a national socialist loving pig dog who probably molests parakeets.

It's conceivable

That she has a nice body.

Good question Dimmy, I don't know the answer, but I think it is a small item in the big picture.


IOW, I think ALL media has gotten to a point of lunacy, want to build a dirty bomb? It's on line.


Want to find out where and when certain political figures are going to be? It's on line.


Sensitive government documents, troop locations, military withdrawal plans or strategies? Somewhere it is being reported on.


How to make severely damaging drugs, yep, on line.


I am NOT placing blame on one side or the other, politically speaking, I think it is just the collateral damage that occurs when you have society in general exposed to such an information highway.


So, I will ask you, is it a Conservative/Liberal issue? Or just the times we live in?


I think the latter, JMHO

Freedom is a fucking bitch.

[Eagle Road]

Freedom is a fucking bitch.

Or lack thereof.

[TerpEagle]

Or lack thereof.

You changed your response? So which is the bigger bitch? You just complained about freedom of access to certain information. Now lack of freedom is a bitch?

First of all, it's funny you blame the media. What do you even mean by that? Journalistic media?

Anyway, to your list:

IOW, I think ALL media has gotten to a point of lunacy, want to build a dirty bomb? It's on line.

--Second Amendment gives us the right to bear arms. It doesn't say the right to bear assault rifles/weapons with lots of bullets but not dirty bombs. Thanks for shitting on freedom.--


Want to find out where and when certain political figures are going to be? It's on line.

--Politicians are elected by and work for us. We are their constituents and they are public servants. Shouldn't we have access to them? Thanks for shitting on freedom.--


Sensitive government documents, troop locations, military withdrawal plans or strategies? Somewhere it is being reported on.

--This country was created to avoid tyranny by the government. If we don't know what the government and its armed branch is doing how are we supposed to protect ourselves from tyranny? We can't even have dirty bombs according to you! Thanks for shitting on freedom.--

How to make severely damaging drugs, yep, on line.

--Unless patents are being violated (which limit freedom as well) why shouldn't people be allowed to understand and utilize chemistry in ways they feel benefit them? Prohibition ended almost a century ago. Thanks for shitting on freedom.--

You should go find a nice totalitarian nanny state that limits any possible "dangerous" information to the public so you can stay safe.

There goes this otherwise interesting thread...

[Eagle Road]

I love the way you can flip flop just so you can post something to start shit, it really is a talent of yours.


Last week I was too Conservative for you, this week I am not Conservative enough,


which is it?

[Eagle Road]

There goes this otherwise interesting thread...

Yeah, pretty much why I kept my response vanilla, AND the reason I changed my original response, guess it just wasn't good enough.

Oh no - I think your opinion matches that of many conservatives. I just think that general line of thinking is amusing.

Freedom is good when it comes to taxes, owning guns, deregulation of businesses and industry, etc.

Freedom is bad when it comes to educating the general populace rather than elite groups and putting people on equal footing.

Cliven Bundy - freedom fighter. Edward Snowden - danger to freedom.

Coolstorybro.

The thread was interesting when it espoused the idea that the media shouldn't provide information to the public and got less interesting when that idea was rejected?

Sorry, but your wrong, I think Snowden should be given a damn medal. Sorry that I don't fit your broad based "Conservation Description"

[TerpEagle]

Many in the intelligence community don't think Snowden deserves a medal because we're less safe.

If he should be given a medal for releasing government secrets that could very well risk lives, why are you against the things you listed?

Because I'm not against the things I listed, YOU have a problem with reading comprehension, I merely listed a number of instances that showcased how the media has changed over the years (which of course you conveniently left out of your response quote).




But good try.
