Reminds me of something my mother used to tell me, "Two wrongs don't make a right"
Oh, and real quick, we all know that the Democrat who Randy Neugebauer called a "baby killer" is Pro-Life, right? I know what you're thinking: Randy Neugebauer must be "mentally challenged" as Sarah Palin would put it to call a Pro-Life Democrat a "baby killer." But the article gives a good reason for his blinding generalization:ouse Republicans sought to stir up protesters, not settle them down. They applauded as one protester had to be removed by security. U.S. Rep. Randy Neugebauer (R., Texas), who owned up to the "baby killer!" shout, headlined the raucous performance.
It occurs to me that something else was gaining momentum during that era: the rise of talk radio, cable news, and the Internet. And the convergence of the three against the backdrop of Monica Lewinsky and the impeachment proceedings gave rise to what we see today.
Today, that three-headed monster facilitates an artificial view of America - one in which every issue boils down to a left/right, liberal/conservative, Republican/Democratic standoff. Americans are now conditioned to choose a side and stick with it. Elected officials and candidates, all too eager to play the media game, emulate that behavior. The lack of decorum carries over from the split screen to the House floor. The cameras and microphones, of course, capture it all. And the cycle starts all over again.
Also, I know I'm giving you the internet linked version of this article, but I'd just like to point out that I read it earlier today in a newspaper in real-life.In short, the common sense of the majority is engulfed by the fervor of a minority fringe. Any undrunk, substantive messages are cast as weak and unprincipled, and are drowned out by those who insist upon casting each political conflict in revolutionary terms.
That's the real damage done when people with a microphone at their lips or on their lapels whip the knuckleheads into a frenzy. There's less time for temperance. Critical thinking is diminished. The actions of a manic few are recorded, projected, and whispered down the lane for anyone with a radio, television, or Internet connection. The debate is cheapened, and, ultimately, the safety of our elected officials is threatened.

beating up a weaker guy (black) is ok in your world?
while spoken words in reality hurt more?
guns to town hall in open carry staes are legal
media distorts the message (if msm)
again please poride links to your statements

Being from NYC, it happened in my backyard too, and I lost friends that day and went to funerals as well. One thing we all need to realize, is that NY'ers don't have any more claim to 9/11 than any one else in the country, whether some kid living in living in Cali and someone woke 'em up at 5am tellin' 'em a planes crashed into the WTC, or whether you've got friends and neighbors who aren't coming home anymore. It wasn't just personal for us as New Yorkers, it was/is personal for all of us. We all got hit that day.Bluespook wrote:Chimneyfish wrote:To be fair though, shouting "racist!" has become to the left what "9/11!" was to the right.grippingthewheel wrote:Sidetracked, sorry.

9/11 happened in what is essentially NYD's back yard. Her father was a retired NYFD, she grew up with these guys, knew alot of them and went to alot of funerals for fallen firefighters. She has alot of friends in the NYPD, i've met many myself, good guys. I know you may think 9/11 is a knee jerk response for her, but it is perhaps more personal for her than the rest of us that watched it on tv.
If its not on youtube, then it didn't actually happen .... ?felinamojokitty wrote:coqui_chris wrote:
