The Tulsa Forum by TulsaNow

Waiting for news reports that someone's head in this forum will explode over this.

Let me guess.....

I can tell just from the headline someone is trying to say that Murdoch is "back"....well, he never really went away.  As to swagger, well he has always had that arrogant sense of entitlement that his kind of wealth seems to have bred into most at that level.  "Justice" may be a little more expensive at his level, in absolute numbers of dollars/euros/pounds but it is always available at a price.

Sounds like nothing new at all....

MURDOCH!!!

I think we've discussed this before.  Most enlightened folk will get their news info from another medium.  TV news is for entertainment.

FOX news is for the older white folks who've not updated their meds due to their hatred of Obamacare.

All news sources have a bias, even if it's only by the stories they don't cover by choice.

All people have a bias.  Murdoch's just found his niche of gullible ones.

Yep. Because those that watch CNNMCNBCNBCPBS blah blah blah are sooo much smarter and less gullible. ::) Kinda like our electorate, which was convinced by their media folks that Obama was so much smarter than everyone, that he is Spock, or other bullcrap. Hell, he was even worthy of songs, I mean when people were not fainting in his presence. Look how that has turned out. He is the weakest president at least in the past 100 years. 

We were talking about FOX news and how it pulled in the largest gaggle of Team Gullible. 

Not sure where you're wandering off to.

Really?

I doubt it.

Nobody had any delusions he was smarter than everyone - just the guys he was running against.  If the Republicans would have better candidates, then there would be no need to vote for Obama....

Even though Obamacare is helping them with those meds much more than any previous regime....  Go figure...

Until the Republicans decide to quit ignoring science, quit scuttling education, stay out of the marriage equality debate (unless they wish to side with the majority of Americans) and leave the fairer gender to their own devices, they will NEVER have anyone electable to the mainstream.  As the youth get of voting age, they will likely become more liberal than conservative.

Conservatives need to reinvent themselves and stop being the 'party of stupid'.  After 2 years how has that worked out for them?

Two years!!??  Bah....try 30+ years!!


nathann posted a list of contrasts one time and I hope he will resurrect that, comparing "liberal" versus "conservative" actions over the last 100+ years - how the progressives were in favor of all the things that have made this a better/stronger country versus the conservative opposition to same.  Very enlightening to a thinking mind.

We had a great Republican President in the 70's - Gerald Ford - and he got bit by the "anybody but Nixon" bug that was going around.  If he would have had 2 terms, we would be a dramatically different country than we are today, and I think a better country than we are today!   We have regressed.  A lot.

Had he not pardoned Nixon, he would have had a second term.

However, I respect him for sticking to his word.

Huge reaction to Nixon in many ways...that is definitely one of them.

Chevy Chase really didn't help much....even though it was very funny!

Wandered off like McCain in a presidential debate's what he gone and did, Red.

It's what he gone and did.

I knew you  could come up with something.

I wonder who it was that deviated from FOX. 

Uh oh, I understand the confusion.  Keep hydrated.

No problem here.  I work in an air-conditioned office.

How about you?  You don't seem as lucid as normal.

I'd guess that's your confusion.  Not sure what the onset reasons are.

Anyway, it's good to see you trying.

Now relax and take a few nice long deep ones.

I am glad I do not have your powers of observation.
I would not have been a successful engineer.  (I probably wouldn't have any friends either.)

Oh, come on...quit trying to deceive!!  Either you are a successful engineer, or you have friends!  Which is it??  Cannot be both....

Engineer, obviously...

Like ^^^^ before posting, thinking, etc... :o

Nice chiminea

Thank you.

Selfie....??

With all his pot references, I'm surprised he's able to see the monitor as stoned as he must be all the time.

Could you imagine his issues if he didn't level out like this all the time?
