How will the media atone for their sins now that weirdo, John Karr, has scammed them with his fake confession in the JonBenet Ramsey case. 

I'm thinking reality show.  You try to get convicted of a crime you didn't commit in exchange for fame and first class air fare.

    Bok and the rest of the neocons that haunt this blog got scammed

    by Bush's WMD story and foreign policy fantasies. At least the electronic media admitted they'd been had. No such admissions or atonement around here regarding Bush. I ain't holding my breath either.

    If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence.

    If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel.

    Slope: Who owns the Washington Times?

  5. Slope Says:

    Can't be the same people who own the Washington Post or the New York Times

  6. mencken Says:

    That's not an answer Slope. Tell the good folks here who owns the Washington Times.

  7. Slope Says:

    You tell them.I couldn't care less.

    Here's your buddy saying the same thing.

    So now Hersh has credibility ? Now I see how it works .

    For the uninitiated, The Washington Times is owned by Sun Myung Moon and the Unification Church. AKA the Moonies.

    The Moonies have poured almost $2 billion dollars into the Times to keep it afloat over the years.

    And like Slope, I couldn't care less who owns it until guys like him hold up the Washington Times as somehow being more pure and credible than the NYTimes and The WaPo.

    Here's some of Moon's wisdom: " The same principle is applicable to God; even though He possesses everything, still He needs a partner, an object of love. When you place your fingers very close to your eyes you cannot focus them because once two things become too close, then you can no longer distinguish between them. When you were a child did you ever try to pick the wax out of your ears, or the mucus from your nose and taste it? What did it taste like? (Salty.) Everybody agrees that it tasted salty so it means you tried to do it. Why don't you feel that it was dirty? Suppose somebody else offered you their ear wax to taste, would you taste it? (NO.) Why don't you feel that your own is dirty? Because it is part of yourself.

    When you go to the bathroom and make a smell you don't seem to mind. However, if somebody else comes and makes the same smell you want to run out of the bathroom. (Laughter.) Why don't you feel that your own smell is bad? Because it is one with you. Once you become totally united then you feel no difference.

    I think your ranting is referred to as selective perception.

    I simply posted newspare articles that said the same thing. If it goes agianst your predetermined position then you should read the NY Times. Who knows they may let you in on some more classifed information.

  11. mencken Says:

    Rant? What rant? Or is a rant just something you disagree with ?

    Are you linking your statement with Moon's contention that when you go to the bathroom - it doesn't stink and when someone else goes…it does ?

  12. Slope Says:

    BYE

    Y'all come back now, ya heah?

  14. Slope Says:

    Chip, I see the boss noticed that mencken keeps chasing away posters and you no longer have top billing on the Opinions page. Had to scroll down so far I almost missed your link.

    Vive le difference! Although I agree with little of what mencken says, I'm glad he's (she's?) here. His myopic views often help support the counter-arguments.

    He's definitely convinced me–George Bush is a Jew-loving Moonie!
