Every time he opens his mouth, I find myself screaming at the radio "well what about X?! And what about Y?!" There is so much stuff he doesn't address, or that he distorts. I find it sickening. But I guess it's entertaining for people who are not well informed and only get their information from these right-wing talkers or from the corporate-controlled news media (particularly Fox) that do nothing but spin or talk about tabloid stuff like Anna Nicole Smith or American Idol. I think every person who has access to cable TV should be obligated to watch CSPAN every day, so they can hear both sides off all the issues, in depth and unedited, and without the spin, and without these radio and TV talkers who twist and distort and take things people have said completely out of context.


I think I know where the negative rep came from. Do you have any ideas

Shenna, it's not a big deal, in fact, I've bumped you up to compensate.

I know that when someone "Rate's this post positively" it ups your rep points, but what do rep point mean, exactly? Do they just signify that the poster writes a lot of positive things?

How would one be able to give you a negative rep point?

Thanks

Click on the icon on the top right of the post and hit agree or disagree. If you hit disagree it tells you the rules. It's for rude or offensive post it's not suppose to be used if you disagree. Usually people with high rep points are very helpful people on the site. We have lots of folks on here that are extremly helpful.

Yikes! I'm lucky if I'm even able to get myself out of bed by that time. I'm not what you would call a morning person.

Nope, I never even knew about this rep thing until I just read your message. I have seen the reputation number on people's posts, but didn't know what it meant and didn't really think about it. You've taught me something.

Default Rush Limbaugh

How can anyone, especially a conservative, accept this doper as anything other than a criminal?

Simply because he espouses the conservative side of issues, lots of you ignore your true feelings and ideology and excuse his criminal conduct.

I've not listened to him since he was caught. I've always dispised hypocrisy.
