Well the CBC has a pretty bad reputation for being slanted to the left, isn't the CBC also under control of the Canadian Government, or it had been for a number of years? Which the Canadian Government had been under control of one party for a pretty...  [Read More]

Actually it wasn't slanted too far right, it was a lot closer to center than what some people would like to believe. Furthermore, Fox News has people from both sides of the Political Spectrum, also every mainstream media outlet would love for Fox to...  [Read More]

Why would it be kitsch? Why can't it be a display about different representations of male genitalia? I have a problem with this stupid argument about allowing ceramic penises and not the American flag. They shouldn't be linked at all. It's almost a...  [Read More]

Actually, I've found it to be the opposite, simply because they are the only cable media source without a left-wing slant. The other media outlets would jump on them if they started spewing out rampant propaganda. Only Fox News will go after those me...  [Read More]

Yes and the ACLU are known for repeatedly backing down at the first sign of public pressure. Somehow I think there is more to the reason they back down than the school and Fox news standing up to them. The ACLU did not have to back down they choose t...  [Read More]

With all do respect if someone has a problem with "God Bless America" that's just too bad. Seriously, it was the kids that came up with the sign, in this case you're advocating a supression of their first amendment rights. I could go even...  [Read More]
