It's official, the people at CNN are fucking idiots
 
I stopped watching CNN a few years ago in favor of MSNBC. I honestly couldn't remember why until last night.

I tune in to watch the last half of the republican debate and the post debate analysis...and during the analysis they're talking about Mike Huckabee.
One of the "analysts" says that Huckabee has some lunatic ideas, like getting rid of the IRS, the "analyst" says "I know everyone hates the IRS, but c'mon, the government has to get it's money from somewhere"

Then they switched to another "analyst", this one a female, who agreed with the first analyst about Huckabee's position and then went on to something else.

Now what I want to know is, how do you get a job as a "political analyst" at a major news network when you don't know anything about politics?
How could a paid professional political analyst not know that the republican leading in the polls in Iowa is for a national sales tax?
This "analyst" seems to think that Huckabee wants to get rid of taxes altogether I guess?

Not only that, but there were 6 people on the panel, most of them republicans, and not a single one of them had anything to say about that remark.

What a fucking joke, thank god for MSNBC.

idiots are invading tv

Turn this off !

Snake Doctor 11-30-2007 12:13 AM

FWIW, I'm not a republican or a Huckabee supporter, I just follow politics the way rotisserie geeks follow baseball.

I find it mind boggling that people who get paid to write about politics in national publications and comment about politics on national TV are so ignorant about things like this.

Thats not true at all, they may suck but regardless what rush says its not the clinton news network. They got Glenn Beck,Wolf Biltzer, Lou Dobbs these arent liberals.Also they personally derailed Howard Deans campaign playing him rallying his team screaming over and over and over.

tony286 11-30-2007 07:52 AM

The national sales tax is not the answer the wall street journal not exactly a liberal paper says people will wind up paying more in taxes.

The tony404 postbot

Ok, once the options are set, you just go to your control panel and click GO post Tony404 and you will start seeing ridiculous post all over the place. The software is actually super smart, it picks out threads that involve someone?s well thought out ideas and it totally misses the topics point. Depending on your usefulness settings, it can miss the point of a thread up to 8 times per thread.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I love ya man but you've totally missed the point.

Jeebus Tony, take a breath once in a while and throw in some punctuation.

That thought was painful to try and decipher. :1orglaugh



Here, I'll try and fix it for you....

"The national sales tax is not the answer. The wall street journal (not exactly a liberal paper) says people will wind up paying more in taxes."

IllTestYourGirls 11-30-2007 08:45 AM

Welcome to what Ron Paul supporters have been saying all summer. Getting rid of the income tax would not harm the US in any way. We just need to cut spending Trillions on invading countries and we could get rid of the IRS replace it with nothing and still have more than enough money for Social Security and other programs that people need to live.

THE ONLY FAIR TAX IS NO TAX

It probably means little now to Howard Dean, but CNN's top executive believes his network overplayed the infamous clip of Dean's "scream" after the Iowa caucuses. "

they may not be as idiotic as we may think... have you considered that their job is to wash the US population's brains even more, therefore saying things like "it's impossible to be without the IRS", is what they get paid for?

I dont find this funny at all. You have no idea how it pissed me off when it first happened.My wife was afraid I was going to do something crazy. Its not parody its a mean spirited attack labeled as a joke by someone who hides behind the net.

Is there more to it than what I'm seeing? Because frankly all I'm seeing is obviously a joke, something about you using (or "being") a postbot.

What am I missing?

The US Gov't should quit taking 40% of people's lotto and game show winnings. That's about the lamest greediest most idiotic cash grab scam they have going.

Thank God here in Canada when you win something you get it, all of it. Tax free.

There's a difference between the head of CNN thinking that they played the Dean clip too much, and you saying they "single-handedly brought down Howard Dean's campaign by playing the clip over and over"

Also...saying that they hurt Dean so they're not liberal doesn't make sense. It was the Democratic primary, some would argue that all of his opponents were liberal also.

Had Dean been the nominee and then they did that during the general election, you'd have strong evidence that they're not biased.

Of course again, this misses the whole point of the thread, I never said CNN was too liberal (hell, I'm a liberal) I said they were idiots. :2 cents:

Well suit yourself. I meant no harm, it was a joke, and a damn funny joke.

If someone wrote something like that about me I'd be pissing my pants laughing.

It was also very appropriate to the situation....you miss the entire point of threads very often.....it's like you're in a drive by hurry to get your post count up or something, so you just glimpse the thread and offer two sentences

If you're going to participate in our discussions we would like for you to at the very least know what it is we're talking about.

If you're the kind of person that can't laugh at yourself or take a joke then we wouldn't have made good friends anyways. :2 cents:

Please post 4 examples, Im fucking tired of people that making shit up.You should know better about that than most after the resent experience you had.
The tony404bot thing was someone doesnt like what I have to say so it was a attack. Im not running typing nonsense. Huckabee loves the fair tax and someone said cnn was to the left as what fox is to the right. I didnt comment on analysts because they are what they are.

Who were you replying to when you made your posts about the national sales tax then?

Nobody besides me had mentioned it before you made that post, and that's not what this thread is about.
That's a perfect example of you missing the point of a thread and participating in a discussion that we're not having.

Cant take a joke,since you remember my nonsense I post thru the years.Then surely you should of remembered how upset I got when tony404 bot first came out.

If I hurt your feelings I'm sorry, it wasn't intentional. I won't bring it up again.
