Thanks!

My father taught me something at a very early age: You have to listen to people you disagree with; it makes you grow.

He was right. Listening to only people you agree with doesn't do you any good.

I'm really going to have to duck for this one...

I find many of Olberman's comments spot on. Yes he's very liberal, yet the libertarian in me can find a good intersection with him. I liked his special comment about the prop 8 gay marriage stuff and being the Ron Pauler I am I loved his numerous Bush bashings.

If anyone thinks I'm a liberal nutjob or whatever perhaps we can find common ground on why we're all here on this forum.

Seriously, I make no attempt to find common ground with anyone who insists I give away my freedoms. Finding common ground is like finding consensus. Consensus means you lose something.

The leftist socialist commie pinkos never lose anything when we compromise. When you compromise with someone who wants to remove your rights they always gain. We never win anything in a compromise. We always lose.

I also do not need to regularly pay attention to anyone whose beliefs run counter to what I believe.

If being a libertarian means you compromise or lose to the left then that is a frame of mind I want to have nothing to do with.

The first amendment does mean they have the right to speak but there is nothing to say I have to listen.

Sometimes our side can be just as onoxious as the left. I agree with most of what Ann Colter has to say, but her delivery is so offencive. I disagree on almost every that Bob Eckles has to say, but I enjoy listeninig to his reasoning and delivery. He makes me think.

I'd rather read Penn Jillette's columns than hers, so it's not just the tackyness factor. I think it's the signal-to-noise ratio.

How can everyone here blame the media for this? They even asked her if she wanted to have that as a backdrop to the interview and she replied "no worries"

The guy doing the birds obviously knew what he was doing and thought it was amusing. Me too =)

Sarah Palin knows where meat comes from, and isn't afraid of it.

Much of the rest of America think meat comes from the grocery store.

That, in part, is why the media dislikes her so much. She and her family are the epitome of everything they hate.

I don't blame the media for the interview, I blame them for pushing the non-story.
I can say that honestly, as someone that dislikes Palin, too.

Im sure they didnt say, "Do you WANT this back drop here?" it was probably more like " Is this back drop ok?" see the difference?

They put the camera there just so they could add in little negative remarks as they were giving the news cast, like the newscaster added at the end. Just more garbage news casting, I refuse to watch any news network. I get all of my daily news from the internet from sources that are not slandered by this political nonsense.

I will not watch the halftime show on Sunday Night Football because Olberman is on it. I have MSNBC blocked on my DirectTV.

I also have been known to watch Lou Dobbs and Anderson Cooper, too. Not to mention The Daily Show

My politics is so dang odd I always get to yell at someone for something

I don't consider them news media though. They are entertainment.

Perhaps in a macabre kind of way.

seems much more time consuming than how we dispached chickens "in the day". Can't believe the title says sacrificed.

I haven't brought myself to watch the Olbermann version, but I watched the original version without commentary today on youtube.

Hey, like I said, she knows where meat comes from, and doesn't even think that it's a problem for others. Some of the irony was more hilarious than anything SNL could make up, though.

"Oh, I'll be takin' care of the turkey!"

"I'm right where I need to be, then!"
