I expected it but it's still a drag that she was forced to retire. I don't understand why we want a situation in which people are intimidated by the history of this sort of reaction to unpopular statements into not saying what they really think. What do we gain by keeping people from saying what they really think? I suppose some people think we gain something from it. But I don't.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Documental Centre for Human Rights in Iraq compiled documentation on over 600,000 civilian executions in Iraq in Sadaam's 24 years in power. That's an avg of about 25k a year. So if Sadaam was still in power the last 7+ years at that rate there would have been a hell of a lot more than 100k deaths.

First of all... My post was correct, not bullshit
I stand by my statement and you've introduced nothing that makes my statement incorrect

Our response killed over 100,000 people that had nothing to do with 9/11
And that's just a plain old fact - not liking it - or - talking about Sadam killing people is all nice and fun for talk radio but the facts are the facts...

and do you really want to go down this road...
Who appointed and empowered the Shah of Iran...? Need any clues..?
On Friday, September 8, 1978 the Shah's soldiers killed as many as 900 civilians in one demonstration

Lets talk about Central and South America dictators appointed and empowered by America...
how many have they killed just since post WWII

And now you're all worried about Iraq and Saddam..? Seriously :rofl:
My original point stands - your point is meaningless in any historical context and hypocritical at the very least

Original point:
Americans telling Palestinians what to do is ridiculous in the context of our actions in similar situations

So does Olbermann. None of the cable news stations claim that all of their programming is news programming or that all of their on-air personalities are journalists. That cvnt, Helen Thomas is (was) a journalist.

It really doesn't matter which media outlets reported it, the point is Helen Thomas is a Bigot and a racist and is out the door. Slobama finally called her statment offensive, but praised her service in an NBC interview.

Never said anything about "liberal news media", just the MSM, but you're free make up anything you wish. :lol:

"Just more evidence to support the fact that there is a severe left-wing bias in the MSM."

Left wing, liberal, same thing. Sorry for misquoting you on the Media in general.


Besides, Huffington post gets more hits and is a more popular site than Breitbart and Foxnews. Does it matter that most of this was passed around on non-mainstream/fringe conservative websites? It still took over a week for any "major" news media outlet to report it, one of the first was Huffington with the Ari Fleischer interview. Other major outlets picked up on it in the next day or two. This was all based off a youtube video, much different than Jake Knotts sending his hatred and bigotry out over a radio show that people tune into weekly, including the press in SC which initially broke the story, it took some MSM media outlets a day or two to publish a story about that too.
