[QUOTE=cyanide101;24792422]The Hufftington Post is like Fox News for Democrats but worst.
Scares me that Facepunch accepts it so blindly.[/QUOTE]
Huff Post is biased and has never (to my knowledge) denied it. Fox News has had that fair and balanced bullshit going on for years.

Man I hope you're right.
[QUOTE=Ridge;24795520]But you guys are the ones saying that the GOP and their puppet Fox News LOVES war...[/QUOTE]
But they also like demonizing Russia. This isn't very hard to understand.

Hey everybody, stone throwing party over at ridges glass house!
[QUOTE=Ridge;24795246]
You mean like all those times they've invited Obama to be interviewed, and been ignored?
I'm no Fox fan, but Fox, MSNBC and Huffington Post are all cut from the same cloth of hardcore partisanship.[/QUOTE]
Have you seen the way Fox conducts interviews? I don't think Obama would really accomplish anything by giving an interview to Fox. They'd probably just attack him and not give him a chance to respond. You know, pull a Bill O'Reilly. Or a Sean Hannity......Or a Glenn Beck. Need I go on? I know you said you aren't a fan of Fox, but I'm just trying to give you examples.
Also politics aside Fox News has much larger distribution than Huff, so you can't really call them equal in any way.
And in the end there will still be like 1000000 people voting for him.
[QUOTE=Ridge;24795549]You should ask Garry to change your name to MentalAbyss, I swear...[/QUOTE]
Your point was that Fox loves wars, so why would they silence a georgian woman talking about the war. Why did fox silence her? I have no idea, but fox DOESN'T silence people that are pro american war ever. Reasons being, patriotism and national support and that war makes a lot of money for the country involved. Why is this a mental point to make?
As Scorpio pointed out, nice glass house.
Off topic point maybe, but not mental.
[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;24795676]But they also like demonizing Russia. This isn't very hard to understand.[/QUOTE]
Seems that reporting Russia baselessly invading an independent nation would demonize itself quite easily...
[QUOTE=Ridge;24795246]Actually, no.

I thought it was going to be him or Palin, or maybe Huckabee. I sure hope it's none of the above.
fuck you gingrich
it's stupid politicians like him that create an atmosphere of stupidity and misunderstanding, no wonder so many people hate america, guys like gingrich can't wait to present themselves as america's representative
Find me a republican that isn't a social conservative and maybe I'll support them.

Well I was gonna say he was just a scarecrow and he was pulling all the straw out of his ass but I'm lazy.
Even then, I'm not the least bit insulted. HumanAbyss as it goes is a pretty dreary nickname to have.
wait no human abyss already sounds like an amigara fault reference.

Which is why they cut her off for saying Georgia invaded Russia. Which they did.

reading back i'm afraid my posts in this thread have not been coherent

Colonialism is settling land for profit, expand influence of the metropole, or to escape the metropole. Imperialism is "stealing" land, brosauce.
Albeit, colonialism typically leads into imperialism, or at least points to a latent imperialist doctorine of the metropole.

Him and Palin?

I think at this point in our history, anyone who's going to be colonial is an idiotic dick. We really should be above even this kind of thinking by now, you'd think once there's not much if any real land left on earth to grab, we'd stop saying "Oh hey, i'm just going to take this from the inhabitants".

I guess you're right, of course, that is why we have Imperialism!:hist101:
Of course, that doesn't seem to be working out quite well now, either.
