Ok it's my opinion, and the time that I was watching good morning america before I unplugged the tv months ago it seemed that very morning the royals got 15 mins of air time, someone was on a trip or got a new hat, or a new dress, and every body was all goo goo ga ga over it. the goo goo ga ga is opinion,, the fact is, they were getting air time. Fact is abc nightly news did not report that turkey shelled Sryia, fact, millions of people will wake tomorrow and go about their busy day less informed than I. and I will check the paper tomorrow and thats a fact Jack.

The wierdness gets even crazier.:rotfl2:
Though there is truth in the statement, millions of american will be less informed than poor yubba, but those americans will be informed with real information while yubba is "informed" with an incredible pile of nonsense.

Or is it just a case of choosing what you want to believe and then trying to argue the pittance of circumstantial evidence that you muddle together as fact?
Be fair, even circumstantial evidence is usually beyond his ken:yep:

What kind of people?

Yeah sure, you mean "democrats"...:yep:

I mean democrats/liberals, they are the ones who always bring up race and use racial rhetoric to make people think whitey is keeping them down.

Agree, idiots.I get tired of the bs on msnbc but morning joe is at least tolerable and occasionally has intelligent people on the set.Plus, Mika is pretty hot for an older woman.:arrgh!:

Wow the blatant lamebrain racist is trying to say something:rotfl2:

I have to admit they reported on it this Morning
 
On goodmorning america abc finally reported, that Turkey had shelled Sryia a whole 30 seconds worth,, grudgingly I might add,, no word of the car bombs they reported the night before,,, you could see that abc crew was upset that Obama didn't do well in the debates....The USA Today paper reported on the shelling,, it was 5 or 6 pages deep but it was there..Well I get my hour of Beck to get the spin on what is going on in the world and read some drudge...So far what I'm getting from Beck is that Obama hates Romney and everything Romney believes in, and that includes what most americans believe in and it showed lastnight..

Breaking news...yubba manages to find a snippet of news in the short snippets of news break on morning fluff TV and then excels himself by finding world news in the world news section of a newspaper.
Wave the flags and ring out the bells, yubba actually managed to perform a simple task:rotfl2:
But why oh why was the syria story after yet another libya story, didn't they get the memo from the NWO that they mustn't report news which yubbs got told by the chalkboard of conspiracy that they don't report.
Maybe its the sneaky reptilians again with a hidden spy station next to their secret telescope they had a cunning ploy to avoid yubbas internet expose by errr...reporting the news like they do everyday

Propaganda is what you get from your sources and repeat here. If you were actually interested in discussing the world rather than partisan blame-laying you would see that.

"Always"? What you just said, or should I say repeated, is a stock Republican/Conservative talking point, used to avoid actually having a real discussion. You are the same as them, and you still don't get it.

I guess the media is dance-ing in the street that the unemployment numbers got below 8% when they get done crowing over their fake numbers, they can come here to Merritt Island Florida, and I can take them to the churches on a monday when they hand out food, and show them the hundreds of people standing in line for a hand out, it is heart breaking and then I can take them to a couple of homeless camps I know of. So where do the people go when they loose their jobs and their homes????

Same places they have always gone, maybe if you hadn't been in a drunken stupor all those years till you lost your job you would have known such simple things.

yubba 10-05-12 04:31 PM

Hey, I was functional alcholic,,I failed to drink myself to death,, I've been sober 6 years now,, figured that I didn't have enough money to kill myself off and that the party was over,, when a company goes out business how is that my fault if you are going to talk about me at least get the story straight,,so what's your problem,,, when was the last time you've done anything for someone that has less than you.????

No! it's not a stock Republican talking point, it's an observation I have made and sure many others have as well.Everytime a liberal opens their mouth concerning any issue , they find a way to tie it into race(and class usually) , that is how they see the world.I do not see the world in racial terms nor do majority of conservatives.I seriously had a professor use the term "white privilege" in class today, ignorance. There is no privilege to being white.Do whites get special benefits(affirmative action) in this country? NO Yet the average liberal thinks white people are always out to hold minorities down etc, we have a black president, who despite his obvious shortcomings, was elected and would not have been elected if not for white independent voters.

Racism will always exist in small numbers among all cultures, just can't get everyone to not think that way.Institutionalized racism though, is gone.Well minus affirmative action, hopefully the supreme court will change that this year.

Tribesman 10-05-12 04:43 PM

Wow the blatant racist is on a rant again, but apparently its everyone else not him
How are those dumb smelly persians who you think are plotting something while they steal white mans education?:doh:

soopaman2 10-05-12 04:57 PM

Bubbles may be a bit harsh, but he has a point about affirmative action.

Don't mean I agree with him on all points, but that is a fair point.

All men are created equal, it may not have been the point of our slave owning founding fathers, but it is what we have become. Then let them be equal, and stand on merit, and not on what box was checked off on you application, under race. ("omg we need to have a certain percentage of minorities, or the government will get us, and the ACLU will sue us!)

Gotta be fair.:)

I wonder what would happen if my white pasty ass tries to get into Tuskeegee or Grambling?

I can understand his malice, even if it is not worded properly.
