Wait, before we go into that, do clarify: what 'commentary' did I provide? Particularly using the term 'conservatives?'

Also, to the other point, I don't listen to NPR, not as a matter of principle but as a matter of not listening to the radio, period.

I was curious, as I didn't remember posting in this thread previously, and checked through...yep, I didn't. That was my first post in the thread. So again, do please elucidate about my "commentary."

I was talking about the tag line of your video, FarSky. I'm not sure why I attributed it to you other than undue haste on my part.

Santorum is a douchebag homophobe. Way to dodge the question. DADT is a terrible policy, and you'd reinstate it? Yeah. **** you.

**** him and the horse he rode in on.

I do not like Santorum and I dont necessarily believe him, but it's still note worthy that he said this:

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/rick-santoru ... hose-boos/

Quote:
I condemn the people who booed that gay soldier. That soldier is serving our country. I thank him for his service to our country. I’m sure he’s doing an excellent job; I hope he is safe and I hope he returns safely and does his mission well.

I have to admit I seriously did not hear those boos. Had I heard them, I certainly would have commented on them. But, as you know, when you’re in that sort of environment, you’re sort of focused on the question and formulating you answer, and I just didn’t hear those couple of boos that were out there. But certainly had I, I would’ve said, “Don’t do that. This man is serving our country and we are to thank him for his service.”

With the same caveats you offer, Dash, I agree. It's certainly more condemnation than we ever see from pols supposedly above playing the race card for those who do so on their behalf.

He's still a dbag. That doesn't make up for wanting to reinstitute DADT.

I just got a chance to look at the YouTube video Nitefox posted on the last page. I think the more pertinent question in this thread ought to be "Why the **** does Bristol Palin have a Reality TV show? This is what's wrong with the entertainment industry."

Yeah, that's a thread unto itself. Anybody can get a reality show these days. They have a show now about guys who build weird fish tanks. Really? There's a sizable group of people that want to watch a couple of guys build fish tanks?
