Zero coverage/outrage on the Today show(and most of the msm) re: slicing/dicing babies and selling the parts.....going on 4 days coverage of a dead lion.
I watch Today every day, never miss...and I saw them run the stealth video of the restaurant scene complete with audio (and captions underneath in case you couldn't hear the audio). Zero coverage? Why would you post something so blatantly false?

what happened to you, toe..

I watch the first 10 minutes or so, never saw it.....if you saw it, ok, but I'll bet it was a one day story.

Also bet it was after 7:30am.

What is the difference between a Democrat and a Socialist?

Good question Chris.

Remember how 8-10 years ago the media was taken to task for showing flag-draped coffins of fallen soldiers being flown home from Iraq? It must be a tough balancing act for those media types, covering tragic events. I suppose there's always that fringe element that think some group gets too much media sympathy (or think they're own group gets no sympathy at all).
I did Google and the only news sources were local to the victims and conservative sites.

Kasich and Walker have the most impressive resumes of any of the R candidates, by far.

I could easily vote for Walker if he's the nominee, but the only problem with him is he has about as much charisma as Hillary Clinton. Charisma shouldn't matter so much in modern presidential politics, but it does. A lot.

I haven't seen much of Kasich recently, but what little I've seen, he comes across as a quirky policy wonk curmudgeon. That's not a bad thing to me - kinda reminds me of Ron Paul, whom I voted for. I don't know how he comes across to moderates and tea partiers.

According to old school political calculations, Kasich should be somewhere on the GOP ticket if he can bring Ohio with him, and either Jeb or Rubio should also be on the ticket if thy can reel in Florida.

Well he talks to God. So if he really wanted to, he could ask the Almighty about our future and fill us in. If the prophet gave me the winning Powerball numbers, I might be inclined to vote for his heroine, HRC.

The only possible person on this planet that doesn't appear at the Fox News debate next week AND could win the GOP nomination, is Willard Mitt Romney. Whoever is left out, should probably just drop out of the race. Kasich better hope he is polling high enough (at that point) to make the cut, or his will be the shortest candidacy for POTUS of all time.

Willard Mitt Romney could win?

That was already tried once, and failed, for good reason. You and Coulter obviously have a major man crush on the Willard that defies all reason.

I invite you to get with the real world and take your pick among the platoon of current R candidates instead. If you like rich guys with baroque hairdos and a rich liberal history, pick Trump.

Q: How do you seperate JD and Debbie Wasserman Schultz?
A: With a crow bar.


Generally, an attractive 50-ish year old woman wouldn't turn my head (I've got a great looking one at home), but DWS does it for me. I don't know how the stuff works, but if I had 4 hours alone with her in hotel room, I'd snort a line of Cialis and take a half tab of Viagra, "just in case." Wouldn't want to waste the opportunity.

Can you imagine how many times Biden would have been destroyed by the media if he had been a Republican?

My kind of Vice President!

Had he been a Republican, his hand would've been on her ass.

And because he's a democrat, we expect him to shove a cigar up her vagina

Boo hoo. Republicans claimed the moral high ground long before I was born, even though most are horndogs like everybody else. No sex ed, no contraception, no porn, no suggestive lyrics, no treating your body like an amusement park. Conservative dress only, in by ten, hold an aspirin between your knees. NO MORE FUN OF ANY KIND!

You don't seriously think dems should be held to the same standard of sexual propriety as conservatives, do you?
