    Why do you think he's an ass? At this point he's probably the only relevant journalist in the whole world.

    "The Republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee has called for whoever leaked the 250,000 US diplomatic cables to be executed"

  2. He is not the most relevant journalist, its the people who leak the stuff. Only thing he needs to press is 'publish'.

    Also its kinda weird he is ignoring the whole case against him in Sweden (or was it Norway?)
  3. Well im from england and i want David Cameron to get even tougher on benifits and imagration, for far too long some people here think they have the right to sit at home have 4,5 6 kids to whoever and let the likes of me who works 12 hours a day for my family to pick up the tab . I asked a single mother who lives on my street why she carnt get a job and she told me she would need to get a job which pays £60.000 a year to keep here in the life style she's use to becouse thats how much she gets evey year from the tax payer ( i could go on and on with this rant ) . Imagration well im all for people seeking a better life but when these people force there beliefs and tell me im a western pig , strap bombs on there backs and go on to take out a packed train or rant hate messagers to there own kind about how bad we are ( but not our benifit system ) then cry human rights when the goverment try to deport them i say enough is enough, you come to my counrty becouse you want a better life and we gave it to you and now you try to change it to how the country you ran from was ..Since this mass imagration we have had to change so much off our way of life to acomadate you and your way of life that its tearing the north of england apart. Oh and 1 more point i dont mind paying a TV lisance i just dont want it all going to the bbc,,,spred it around...
  4. Dude whitespace is free

    But i agree: there are definitely people misusing the social security system.


  5. Now that is just stereotypical. They aren't all the same. Some of them are really kind people and have great personalities. In a way, I do agree with you. Some are completely rude and arrogant which infuriates me.

    Yeah, they are all stealing our jobs, blah blah blah, but it's different when they start their own business. I have this scaffy looking Indian cuisine about 5 minutes walk from my house. It looks like it's infested with food poisioning but trust me, it's brilliant. I don't really know where I'm going with this. That bit was just slightly irrelevant.

    But anyway, I take it from the start of that post, you're Conservative?

  6. Indeed stereotypes are ugly. Enough people working hard for their money. Those who abuse should be punished.


  7. I think this is what he's getting at.....


    TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 115 > § 2381

    § 2381. Treason

    Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

    Say what you will about politics- each to his own...but there's a striking amount of evidence that no matter what party you affiliate with, Fox News is a bunch of brainless farts running around with their heads up their asses. Not because of their views or programming or anything, but the entire way they run things. Good example above.


    While I should find that worrying, particularly as I'm sure they label themselves (internally anyway) as being a reliable source of news, I actually find that funny.

    I thought it was hysterical as well. I just think they should stop taking themselves so seriously if they're going to make downright silly mistakes like that.

    They were quoting TMZ as a reliable source at one point. That was even better.

    Ah, mainstream journalism. It's a prick of a thing.
