According to the latest FEC filings, the National Republican Congressional Committee spent $425,000 attacking Darcy Burner… yesterday alone. This brings the NRCC’s grand total to over $1.3 million dollars in WA-08, all of it spent on attack ads.
Darcy could potentially become a victim of her own success. This supposedly “third tier” challenger is now drawing first tier attention from the NRCC, which has made her one of its top ten targets over the past few weeks.
The good news is that this is a clear demonstration of the netroots’ “50-State Strategy” at work. Ten months ago the NRCC wasn’t expecting to spend much money defending Dave Reichert’s seat, but Darcy’s strong challenge has forced them to pull money from other races, leaving the door open for challengers like Peter Goldmark to sneak up on incumbents like Cathy McMorris in Washington’s 5th Congressional District. The bad news is that unless Darcy has the resources to respond, and Peter has the cash to out-flank the R’s out West, both Reichert and McMorris could eke out victories.
That’s where you come in. Darcy needs to raise $500,000 during the month of October to stay competitive, and Peter’s budget requires bringing in about half that. So to help them meet their goals and bring a Democratic majority to Congress, I’m asking you to join me in a bold and innovative fundraising experiment.
Since March, 234 of you have contributed over $17,000 to Burner and Goldmark via my Act Blue page, a truly amazing performance that gives the HA community one of the highest dollar to reader ratios of any blog in the nation. On several occasions I have personally asked you to give to these two campaigns, and you have responded. I promised you that these races would become competitive, and with your help they have.
I am now asking you to make the same sort of personal appeal to your friends and family, not just in Washington state, but throughout the nation. The goal: to double the number of contributions via HA’s Act Blue page between now and October 31.
If only 50 of HA’s thousands of readers respond to my challenge and bring in just five new donors each, we will easily meet our target. If the 234 of you who have already made generous donations bring in only one new contributor each, well… you can do the math for yourself.
Here is what I am asking you to do. I want you to put together a list of like-minded friends and relatives, and I want you to email them and personally beg them to give money to Darcy and Peter. If they say no, ask them again. If they do not respond, I want you to give them a call. I want you to personally plead with them that this election may be our best and last shot at turning our nation around, and that Darcy and Peter will be leaders that will make them proud.
I’m not going to tell you exactly what to write or say; you know these people best, so you are the best person to craft an appeal. But I do want you to set a personal goal — say, 10 new contributors — and specifically ask your friends and family to help you reach your target. I also suggest that you emphasize that any amount will help, even as little as $10.00 — although experience shows that most people will give more.
Finally, I want you to embed in your email the following link — http://actblue.com/page/horsesass?refcode=OctDrive — to facilitate giving, and to keep track of our progress. And if you want, you can replace “OctDrive” with an alphanumeric string of your choice to identify your own efforts, and at the end of the month I will list the fundraising results for each of you. Think of it as a friendly competition.
Darcy and Peter personally reached out to me. I have personally reached out to you. And now you need to reach out to your friends and family and personally ask them to make that final effort to put us over the top this November.
We are counting on you. We are counting on us.
The Empire Strikes Back.
Hardy-har-har.
David, how much are you giving?
Thanks Goldy-
I kicked $$’s to Darcy and Peter.
Luigi @3,
I have already given $200.00 that I don’t have.
Sorry I already hit the contribution limit, and unlike the GOP, I don’t want to violate campaign laws.
A lot of the GOP millions that are beeing spent are legacy funds that were raised from a handful of rich folks that gave huge sums of cash to the party and can’t be replicated in the future. The more they spend now the less they’ll have to spend in ’08.
Goldy, you should challenge your readers to donate 10 hours of work to the Burner campaign between now and the election. I’m flat broke, but I have lots of free time so I donate time instead of cash.
Right @6, Me@7,
What I’m asking, is that you give a little bit of your time to ask your friends and family to give money, in the same way that I’ve asked my readers.
Okay Goldy. Sorry I misunderstood. I’ll doorbell the neighborhood today.
Yeah, I got yeah. I’m down in Gig Harbor working my tail off to get Derek Kilmer elected to the state senate.
East London – The South African Government has issued new orders to seize land from a small number of white farmers who were not willing to settle apartheid-era land disputes with dispossessed blacks, the nation’s agriculture and land affairs minister said. Minister Lulu Xingwana has said her department would only hold price negotiations for six months with whites who own land taken from blacks during white minority rule. If talks failed, officials would take steps to seize the land. [……….Could this be the plan for black Democrats in Detroit, Gary, Philly, and South Central LA?]
BOSTON – Former U.S. Rep. Gerry Studds, the first openly gay person elected to Congress, died early Saturday at Boston Medical Center, several days after he collapsed while walking his dog, his husband said. He was 69.
Studds fell unconscious Oct. 3 because of what doctors later determined was a blood clot in his lung, Dean Hara said.
Studds regained consciousness, remained in the hospital, and seemed to be improving. He was scheduled to be transferred to a rehabilitation center, but his condition deteriorated Friday and he died at about 1:30 a.m. Saturday, Hara said.
Hara, who married Studds shortly after gay marriage was legalized in Massachusetts in 2004, said Studds was a pioneer who gave courage to gay people everywhere by winning re-election after publicly acknowledging his homosexuality. [………………………………………………………………Perhaps a little Democrat “Tookie Williams” HIV/AIDs had an impact here? I wonder how many Pages got the HIV/AIDs “Tookie love” from Gary? We’ll never know, as the MSM refuses to report on a DEMOCRAT!!!!!!]
I’ll break my long-standing policy of ignoring JCH, just this once.
Making gleeful jokes about the death of another, what a pig. Clearly demonstrating his amorality.
K, I still feel sorry for Mary Jo [Teddy “Oldsmobile” Kennedy’s babe]. I must have missed your “I feel sorry” post on her. Please repost. hehe, JCH
Democrat gays give each other AIDs after lots of “Tookie” love, run up hundreds of thousands in medical bills, and expect someone else to pay. Typical “victim” Democrats.
Daddy Love— “Global Warming is soooooo bad that coastal real estate in Hawaii is dropping in value because of the rising ocean levels and expected flooding!!!! Oh wait…………….It’s not???? Never mind!!!! hehe, JCH [“Global Warming”: Democrats assault on capitalism. Note the coomie lib Dems have nothing to say to communist countries. Note the dumb ass Democrats are silent about the Chicomms and Cubans drilling for oil and gas off Florida. Dems: domestic traitors ]
Goldy. I wish you had saved that $200 to get the therapy your daughter will need after you completely screw her up. darcy can’t ein and your daughter has already lost.
Saw those adds from the NRCC – they were boring. Let’s hope they are wasting more money across the country, helping to reinforce the names of challengers to these GOP losers.
It might have helped Darcy if her opponents name wasn’t “Bush”. They will look for Bush on the ballot, and can’t find Darcy’s name under his.
People will vote for Riechart, cause they know his name, and he is the incumbant.
Just got to ActBlue yesterday. Wow they make it easy.
More than 50,000 cells believed to have come from the brain of a HorsesAss.org commenter who goes by the handle “JCH” were found Tuesday by the Tukwila Police Department Vice Unit. The cells were found in an area frequented by sex workers and their patrons.
One worker who requested anonymity stated that she knew of the individual known as “JCH” and found him to be: “Creepy. Always mumbling about Kennedys and asking us girls if we’re illegal or if we need a doctor or something.. He’s disgusting. You can’t even make out what he’s saying half the time. If we’re really hurting for money I guess we’ll take him but otherwise…well…he just stays in his car and looks. I know what he’s doing in there. Most guys are pretty nice. He’s just a pervert.”
“JCH” has been rumored to be estranged from his family due to his extreme and bizarre political views and sources reveal that there is concern among what little family that will acknowledge him as to how the loss of more brain cells will affect “JCH”.
“He’s lost a lot over the years.” Says one family member who spoke off the record, “It was bad enough when he was listening to just Rush, Carlson and Kirby Wilbur…that was bad enough. You could see him degrade. Then he got into Glenn Beck and Michael Savage really heavy. It was like crack to him. He couldn’t stop. Said he didn’t want to…didn’t need to. We fought about it. I had to cut him off. Tough Love, you know.”
Authorities say the individual is not dangerous as far as they know, but residents and businesses in the area are being alerted.

Looks like Rickey is gonna have to suck some dickey!
welcome back mr cynnical (country girl) I always knew you were a cross dresser and I congratulate you on finally getting the sex change operation.
Darcy? Who? Darcy Burner? Who the hell is that?
I just gave Darcy $60, and Peter $60.
Defend yourselves from these liars folks.
All they can do is lie about Darcy, and Peter. They have nothing else to run on….
Republicans = The Problem
Democrats = Part of the solution. You, and I, including the righties are the rest. We both need to take our country back from the ruling class, and corporate sleazebags.

Like he didn’t demonstrate it with his affection for genocide?
By the way righties. How long do you think Sargent Schultz defense will work for Hastert?
I know noooooooothing.
Hey fat dude. It is your job to know, and lead. Maybe Rove should have told you…..
Mark1
She’s the Democrat who has tied the 8th Congressional District Republican incumbent in the polls with only a tenth of his name recognition.

Sergeant
Talk is pretty cheap. One thing we can probably all agree on is that WHATEVER Bush and Reichert have been doing about North Korea since 2001, they have FAILED to keep them from going nuclear.
I’ll be making calls on Darcy’s behalf on Monday. I’ll be cotributing my own money AND Im going through my Rolodex at work and e-mailing everyone I know or have been in contact with. As Zig Zigzlar was fond of saying: “If you throw enough shit on the wall some of it’s bound to stick and if you throw it real good a lot of that shit will stick — to the wall…. But you should wear protective gloves at all times.”
re 17: I wonder what you would have had to say for yourself if you and Tookie Williams had been alone in the same room. “PLEASE!!! pLEASE DON’T HURT ME! i’LL DO ANYTHING YOU WANT!!!! jUST DON’T HURT ME!!!”
And knowing this about you we have to listen to your foul jokes all the time. Why don’t you go down to South Ranier some time on a Friday night and regale the bar patrons with your Tookie jokes? We all know why — you chickenshit little weasel.
Are you asses calling for the head of your very own crooked asshole?

Keep your fucking spam posts out of here.
Harry Reid bought the land, owned the land, sold it, and cleared about $700K. He reported his ownership of the land in his disclosures every year.
There’s no outside influence, there are no third parties, the value of his land had nothing to do with any legislation he ever sponsored or advocated.
IF there is eevn a technical violation of Senate rules or federal disclosure laws, which is far from clear, its is a Senate of DoJ matter.
If YOU think there is some sort of money-for-influence or other corrupt action goin on here, why don’t you have the balls say it outright of wasting space in here like you do elsewhere.
What a long post. And Safeco gave McGavick 20 some million for jerking off.
Harry invested in real estate, and sold it for a profit. Isn’t that what he is supposed to do?
If you want to see corruption, just look up Noe, and Ney….. Noe steals millions from the workers comp fund for Ohio, and hands it to republicans so they can run their campaigns.
No wonder Ohio is turning BLUE!!!
Could you imagine what would have happened if the FBI was actually investigating Republicans, instead of Democrats? If we had a real attorney general, instead of torture memo political operative Gonzales.
Senate
MajorityMinority Leader Harry Reid needs to step down from his leadership position right now and undergo a full investigation of his activities. Once again it seems the media is mostly turning a blind eye to what is clearly a probable case of buying influence by kicking back profits to a Senator who pushed legislation and peddled his influence in ways that helped create the profits he received. The fact the connection between Reid and the land developer he assisted was covered up in an UNDOCUMENTED (and therefore theoretical) business deal is what makes this look like a story of covering up (instead of whatever lame excuse Reid and Brown are trotting out).Hate to inform all those legal eagles in the Democrat party – but unless it is documented it is not a business or a business arrangement. Without a contract it is nothing.
Look at what Reid did to make his land purchase a windfall of nearly 3/4’s of a million dollars without any documentation (or taxes, speaking of giving tax breaks to the rich):
Nevada land deeds show Reid and his wife first bought the property in January 1998 in a proposed subdivision created partly with federal lands transferred by the Interior Department to private developers.
Reid’s two lots were never owned by the government, but the piece of land joining Reid’s property to the street corner _ a key to the shopping center deal _ came from the government in 1994. [AJStrata: making the property Reid bought valuable IF the land were to be developed, and basically useless otherwise]
…
Around the time of the 1998 sale, Lessman and his company were completing a complicated federal land transfer that also involved an Arizona-based developer named Del Webb Corp.
In the deal, Del Webb and Perma-Bilt purchased environmentally sensitive lands in the Lake Tahoe area, transferred them to the government and then got in exchange several pieces of valuable Las Vegas land.
Lessman was personally involved, writing a March 1997 letter to Interior lobbying for the deal. “This exchange has been through many trials and tribulations … we do not need to create any more stumbling blocks,” Lessman wrote.
For years, Reid also had been encouraging Interior to make land swaps on behalf of Del Webb, where one of his former aides worked.
What is clear is Reid only purchased the land after some initial hurdles were cleared – specifically the land swap where developers bought useless property (”environmentally sensitive” means no development, none) in one state and then traded it in for property someplace else where they could develop. It is only after this first hurdle is passed does Reid make is purchase. But even at this early stage Reid was trading political pressure for donations:
In 1994, Reid wrote a letter with other Nevada lawmakers on behalf of Del Webb, and then met personally with a top federal land official in Nevada. That official claimed in media reports he felt pressured by the senator. Reid denied any pressure.
The next year, Reid collected $18,000 in political donations from Del Webb’s political action committee and employees. Del Webb’s efforts to get federal land dragged on.
Is it far fetched to assume the initial coordination would lead to ideas on how to really cash-in? And not in political donations, but personal wealth!
Clark County intended for the property Reid owned to be used solely for new housing, records show. Just days before Reid sold the parcels to Brown’s company, Brown sought permission in May 2001 to rezone the properties so a shopping center could be built.
Career zoning officials objected, saying the request was “inconsistent” with Clark County’s master development plan. The town board in Spring Valley, where Reid’s property was located, also voted 4-1 to reject the rezoning.
Brown persisted. The Clark County zoning board followed by the Clark County Commission voted to overrule the recommendation and approve commercial zoning. Such votes were common at the time.
So somehow the land that was not available became available – and Reid purchased it. And somehow the land that was zoned residential (and therefore would gain marginal value over time) became rezoned right before Reid ’sold’ the land to this shell company for what he paid for it! For NO PROFIT. Not even the normal inflation of money. This is right after the zoning came through that would drastically increase its value! One could have said how unfortunate that Reid sold right at the time the value would start shooting up. But he did not sell the land it seems, he simply transferred it in some verbal, mythical business deal. So when the land did sell to a developer, Reid – who clearly sold the land to this company – got a huge (and hidden) windfall.
Are we to believe Reid’s well timed moves and his clear ’selling’ of his land with zero increase in price at a time the land’s value would begin skyrocketing to business entity without any mention of Reid’s involvement or ownership, and his willingness to cough up $400K worth of real estate without any written agreement of interest in said business, is all innocent?
This news about Reid makes one wonder what kinds of real estate deals is he in on in this area of Nevada, given the fact he is working in opposition to his liberal base.
A large coalition of environmental groups is challenging legislation by Nevada’s two U.S. senators that would create almost 550,000 acres of wilderness in White Pine County but allow private development on other federal land.
The environmentalists say that surrendering 45,000 acres in that county to development in exchange for wilderness protection is a bad deal that a Congress controlled by Democrats would be less likely to approve. The groups want a delay to see whether Democrats succeed in taking control of the House or Senate in the Nov. 7 elections.
The White Pine County bill is one of four pieces of legislation the environmental groups oppose. The others involve similar land-use exchanges in Idaho and Utah.
“All of them have this quid pro quo strategy of giving away public land in one place for protection in another place,” said Janine Blaeloch, director of the Western Lands Project. “If wilderness is going to be protected, it should not happen at the cost of losing the rest of our public lands.”
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D.-Nev., and his Republican colleague, Sen. John Ensign, drafted the White Pine County bill. It would trade federal wilderness protections, which generally prohibit development and restrict most motorized recreation, on some lands for the privatization of other lands.
The bill is modeled after a 1998 bill, the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act, which set aside land for wilderness and designated other land for sale for private development and other uses.
This deal has all the characteristics of the other one. I wonder if Reid has some verbal business agreements here as well?

Again, link to the fucking article and post only an excerpt. You’re violating federal copyright law, and I know that because you’re Republican you don’t care about laws, but I’m just telling you that Goldy will remove your post.
You don’t know a goddamned thing about limmited partnerships, to you cut and past instead fo being able to articualte anything in your own words besides strings of invective. And BTW, Solomon is at worst wrong and at best misleading that Harry Reid “reaped a $1.1 million windfall” from selling his land. He bought the land for $400K and sold it for $1.1 million, netting $700K.
Harry Reid always owned that land. It just so happened that three years ago, he transfered the property from his own personal name to that of an LLC. And this was all disclosed to the Senate Ethics Committee. Where Reid was sloppy in a minor, technical way is that he continued to disclose ownership of the land as a personal asset rather than as ownership in the LLC which owned the land. But that’s it. The FACT is, the LLC had no other assets other than this piece of land, and Reid disclosed ownership of the piece of land. Case closed.
It would be different if some action Reid had taken had increased the value fo the land, such as happened with North Carolina’s Rep. Charles Taylor (R) use of earmarks to enrich himself, or Dennis Hastert’s similarly creative and lucrative use of earmarks.
But no, no corruption here, unless you want to actually allege some. And Solomon’s articles don’t really do the trick, son.
SENATOR Dirty Harry Reid, DEMOCRAT, NV…………Never mentioned in the MSM. Gee, I wonder fucking why???
So Republicans think that non-consensually stripping prisoners down, forcing them to sodomize on another, attacking them with dogs, and photographing them with women isn’t torture, it’s sex.
I say, what kind of sick bastards have that kind of sex? Republicans, I guess.
The only way to get this criminal gang out of power is to vote them out. Elect Darcy Burner and Peter Goldmark to restore the rule of law.

Second, there’s no story there. That’s why it’s not played up. Boring. Big snooze. Man sells land, makes profit. Alert the media.
Elect Democrats, and watch how it screws up the White House.

FONTANA, Calif. – A fight between two high school students erupted into a riot of 500 people, prompting officers to fire bean bags and rubber pellets to scatter the crowd, police said. No major injuries were reported.
About 100 officers rushed to Fontana High School after students threw rocks and bottles at other officers and one another, according to Fontana police Sgt. Doug Wagner.

Police were investigating the cause of the fight.
“We don’t know if it was gang related or if it was racially motivated,” Wagner said. “Some people were unhappy with one another, a fight broke out and it spilled over.”
Two students were arrested for investigation of assault with a deadly weapon, and four others were arrested for refusing to disperse and resisting arrest, Wagner said. Their names were not released because they are minors, he said.
The brawl forced school officials to lock down the campus, and school was closed several hours early, he said.
Fontana is about 50 miles east of Los Angeles. [………………………..Welcome, “Diversity” Democrat Mexicans!!! Collect welfare, get food stamps, trash the school, and kick the fuck out of “whitie”!!! Not a Republican within miles of this Hillary Village “Baja Norte”. Kind of a brown “Detroit”.]

“Oops, but he sold the land to a Company he had a stake in…..Makes a differnce…He didnt sell it to Ma & Pa Kettle, he sold it to his own company…..”
You are ill informed. About three years ago, he transferred the property from his name to an LLC whose sole asset was his land. No money changed hands, and he retained complete control over the land. That was not a sale. Then very recently he sold the land (not to his own company, to someone else) and realized a $700K profit.
But, even if, as you say, “he sold it to his own company,” I dn’t “smell somethign fushy. IF YOU THINK THERE WAS CRIMINAL OR CORRUPT ACTIVITY< PLEASE SPECIFY IT. Otehrwise, this game of "doesn't that seem suspiscious?" is just baseless innuendo.

“how is that different from having consentual cyber sex with a person over the age of 16?”
Are you slow, or intentionally obtuse?
For one thing, the feeral law that Mark Foley sponsored and helped pass makes it a federal crime to have “consentual [sic] cyber sex with a person” under the ge of 18.
For another, it is the fact that Hastert, Shimkus, Alaexander, Kolbe, and others covered up to allow the predation of the Conrgessional pages whose safety was their responsibility,/b> for years that is the issue, not Foley’s pursuit of pages per se.
Republican Bob Ney is scheduled to go to the same prison they’re saving a cell in for Tommy DeLay.

Daddy Love, Foley should have just taken the page for a ride and killed him. Then, like Teddy, it would be no big deal.
If that is true, then he failed to disclose his stake in the company, a company that had business with congress.
For one thing, the feeral [sic] law that Mark Foley sponsored and helped pass makes it a federal crime to have “consentual [sic] cyber sex with a person” under the ge of 18.
No it doesn’t. :) The law specifically says that it is only applicable if it would be illegal for them to have sex. You can’t illegally entice someone to have legal sex.

2. Dick’s daughter, is of age, made life choices that she is not hiding.
3. Goldy is a local blogger, he is not a politician. He is politically active to be sure.
4. Goldy’s daughter is an innocent here. She is a minor. She is exempt from attack here. (Only a low life piece of pond scum would think otherwise)
Now, you wingnuts seem to be very fond of the tit for tat method of defense. Never answering the charge, just pointing out someone else who is also guilty, in your mind anyway, and then continuing on as if the charge was never made.

Charlie Cook’s National Overview
October 13, 2006
“This is without question the worst political situation for the GOP since the Watergate disaster in 1974. I think a 30-seat gain today for Democrats is more likely to occur than a 15-seat gain, the minimum that would tip the majority.”
“[James Carville] believes the party should help fund previously ignored Democratic challengers in second- and third-tier districts–the next 30 to 50 Republican-held seats–to fully capitalize on this environment and help those candidates maximize their chances of winning… If I were them, [I’d take] $10 million and put $500,000 each of these 20 districts.”
“If things don’t change, GOP incumbents, who never even contemplated having a difficult race, may well lose this year. And if I were a Republican, I’d start praying that something happens to take the spotlight away from Iraq and scandals, because this current issue mix is lethal.”

KANE COUNTY, IL — A 36-year-old Aurora man seeking election to the Kane County Board in November has been charged with sexually abusing two girls.
Brent K. Schepp, of the 400 block of Linden Avenue, was named in a 26-count criminal indictment announced Friday by Kane County State’s Atty. John Barsanti.
The charges are 14 counts of criminal sexual assault, 10 counts of criminal sexual abuse and two counts of unlawful delivery of alcohol to a minor.
Prosecutors said Schepp knew his victims, who are now 15 and 16. The alleged abuse occurred last year between June and December.
Bond is set at $75,000. Schepp faces a minimum sentence of 34 years in prison if convicted.
Schepp is the Republican candidate in the race for an open County Board seat based in Aurora.

“he failed to disclose his stake in the company, a company that had business with congress.”
If you assertion that the LLC holding company that Reid had a share of had “business before Congress” is true, then surely you can support that with some factual account. So far all I hear is badly informed opinion.
68 Michael
Mikey, you’re wrong. The law defines a minor as someone under 18 and does not take into account the age of consent in any jurisdiction.
But there’s moreAt least 40 states, including Florida, have laws against enticing children online into sexual activity, according to Mary Leary, a visiting law professor at Catholic University in Washington…The laws vary, but all focus on using a computer to lure a minor into sexual conduct. No physical meeting with a child has to occur for an adult sender of a sexually explicit message to be prosecuted, says Flint Waters, a Wyoming police investigator who has posed as a minor online to catch pedophiles. The crime is a felony in most states.
A federal enticement statute carries a 10-year prison term and can require the perpetrator to register as a sex offender.
Again, many of these stautes define a “minor” as someone under the age of 18.
And further again, it is the fact that that Republican leadership has known about Foley’s activities for years and have done nothing to protect the pages in the House. It’s the same shirking of responsibility, incompetence, and political calculaton we’ve come to hate in the Republicans. It’s why they’re on their way out.
I heard a lawyer on the radio saying that it might be possible to indict the entire GOP leadership under a RICO statute if it can be proven they conspired to cover up their fellow ped’s behavior.

There’s no outside influence, there are no third parties, the value of his land had nothing to do with any legislation he ever sponsored or advocated.
IF there is eevn a technical violation of Senate rules or federal disclosure laws, which is far from clear, its is a Senate of DoJ matter.
If YOU think there is some sort of money-for-influence or other corrupt action goin on here, why don’t you have the balls say it outright of wasting space in here like you do elsewhere.

Daddy White Flag Appeaser: No he didn’t that’s why he has to post an amended document because HE DIDN’T FOLLOW THE LAW!
News Corp. chairman Rupert Murdoch says he is “quite proud” that his Fox News is reportedly the only news channel on in the White House.
“It should be that way,” he told Time magazine. “I go around to Congress, and you go to Democrats who are 100 percent CNN. You go to Republicans, and they’re 100 percent Fox. And if you go to government departments, you’ll probably see Fox.
“If you go to the State Department, you only see CNN. Viewers seem much more biased than the channels.”
Asked if his decision to launch a news channel was linked to a desire to present an ideological viewpoint, Murdoch declared:
“It was part of it. The good bulk of the press in this country was monolithic — liberal to varying degrees. And I’m not saying that’s wrong. But the journalism schools and newspapers in this country are totally monopolistic. In the average city there’s one newspaper. And people like a choice of news.”
As for what newspapers he reads every day, Murdoch told Time he reads the New York Post, and looks at the front page and editorial page of the Wall Street Journal and New York Times. “That’s about it.”
@103Mikey, you’re wrong. The law defines a minor as someone under 18 and does not take into account the age of consent in any jurisdiction.
Hmm. Here is the law you are talking about:
MANDATORY MINIMUM TERMS OF IMPRISONMENT FOR VIOLENT CRIMES AGAINST CHILDREN.–
A person who is convicted of a Federal offense that is a crime of violence against the person of an individual who has not attained the age of 18 years shall, unless a greater mandatory minimum sentence of imprisonment is otherwise provided by law and regardless of any maximum term of imprisonment otherwise provided for the offense–
http://www.govtrack.us/congres.....=h109-4472
This is a sentencing guideline for someone who commits (and is convicted of) a crime against someone under 18. However, it is not a crime to have sex with someone over the age of consent, so according to you, this is a sentencing guideline for a noncrime. Betcha Goldy didn’t tell you that.
Yakima Herald just Endorsed MCGAVICK
What’s a “mofo”?
Whatever it is, it’s not like any black person I’ve ever heard.

David, did you read The Seattle Times today? Ouch.
Well I guess that kills the idiotic republican talking point that the “liberal” press is out to get the republicans. The Times has become more of a right wing paper over the last year. Pretty soon we’ll probably see Murdock’s name on the masthead to complete the transformation.
@ 116
I just spit out my coffee, damn you. How you choose to spin the Reichart Endorsement is fine by me, but PLLLLUUUUUZZZZZEEEEE read the reason’s why they DIDN’T endorse Burner.
I will help you a bit here:
She has coached youth sports, and her community board
She forgot to vote a few times
She called Reichart a Liar, and also lied in Burner Supported Ads about Reicharts vote on Vet’s Funding.
Just a few of the Times reasons for NOT endorsing Darcy.
My oh my. It looks like the Times kicked Darcy in the nuts.
Good aim!
Has anyone looked up Reichert’s voting record?
God, she’s an evil looking bitch. I bet her husband cringes when she gets that ugly thin, tight lipped grimace thing she does.
That’s probably why he’s anxious to get her 3000 miles away.
111 Michael
Actually, no. The portion to which I was referring was Subtitle A Sect. 111 (14)
(14) MINOR.–The term “minor” means an individual who
has not attained the age of 18 years.
But, as I look more closely, this section is about sex offender registration and the like.
It is not impossible for Foley to be convicted under federal laws such as TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 71 > § 1465
http://www4.law.cornell.edu/us.....-000-.html
But it is more likely that if he is convicted of a crime it would be under state law somewhere in Florida, where the age of consent is 18 and a crime may have been committed if Foley is found to have seduced or attempted to seduce a minor.
However, having said all that, the issue is STILL not Mark Foley. The issues is STILL the fact that Hastert, Shimkus, Alaexander, Kolbe, and others covered up to allow the predation of the Conrgessional pages whose safety was their responsibility for years.
@28 Daddy Love:
Ah, I see. I thought she might be applying for a custodial position or something. Burner is gonna get burned come Nov. 7 and as far as polls go, they are not factual nor reliable. I’m sorry you want another unqualified nobody twat in an already sea of many trying to run this once great State.
re 122: Ted Bundy was a Young Republican. Maybe he and Reichert rubbed elbows.
I just want to issue my own personal appeal to ALL NUTROOTS to SEND ALL YOU CAN! Mortgage your homes if you have to. But send EVERY PENNY to Darcy Burner NOW!
“re 122: Ted Bundy was a Young Republican. Maybe he and Reichert rubbed elbows.”
BULLSHIT! Prove it! I AM CALLING YOU OUT!
John Wayne Gacy
When Chicago businessman John Wayne Gacy was exposed in December 1978 as a sadistic homosexual serial killer it came as a seismic shock to his neighbours, friends and business associates.
It was also deeply embarrassing for the Democratic Partyof President Jimmy Carter as Gacy was an enthusiastic supporter who had been photographed with the First Lady, Rosalyn Carter.

No damage here from the 6.3 earthquake off Kona. BTW, The security gate still works, so GBS and JDB can’t enter and loot. Could be big surf om the Kohala coast!!! [If I were a black Democrat I could blame George Bush, go loot a HDTV from Best Buy, get a free FEMA trailer, and a $2000 credit card from the Red Cross to buy Marlboros, Black Velvet, KFC, and King Cobra!!!!]

this section is about sex offender registration and the like.
Again, in order to be registered as a sex offender, you have to be convicted of a sex offense. Having sex, or adult chat, with someone over the age of consent is not a sex offense.
The issues is STILL the fact that Hastert, Shimkus, Alaexander, Kolbe, and others covered up to allow the predation of the Conrgessional pages whose safety was their responsibility for years.
If you are talking about Jordan Edmund, the “page” identified in the sexually explicit IMs published by ABC, he was 18 at the time and had not been a page for a year or so. One would think that Hastert’s responsibility ends when the person leaves the page program, or when they become adults, or at some point. Following your logic, teachers can never have sex, because nearly any potential “victims” were once students.
Oh don’t worry. You liberals will have plenty of time to “Act Blue” after Nov 7.

“Having sex, or adult chat, with someone over the age of consent is not a sex offense.”
In Florida, with someone under 18, it is.
“If you are talking about Jordan Edmund”
Sadly, no.
Foley contacted many pages, many of whom were under the age of 18 at the time he contacted them, when he took them out to dinner, when he drove them around DC in his BMW convertible, when he grabgbed their asses in the House.
He has sent improper messages to pages in the House. He has used his position as a Member of Congress and his access to pages who were then serving in the House to contact them later. But that’s all good, right? I mean, I am sure that’s why the Republican leadership said: “The improper communications between Rep. Mark Foley and former House congressional pages is unacceptable and abhorrent. It is an obscene breach of trust. His immediate resignation must now be followed by the full weight of the criminal justice system.”
And what kind of lame-ass analogy are you making there at the end? The Foley issue is about pages he started approaching IN the House, not anyone who have ever been a page in their lifetime.
And, of course, it’s not Foley’s “unacceptable and abhorrent” (see above) behavior, it’s that the senior leadership of the House covered up the abhorrent behavior for what is now sounding like somehwere between three and seven years, and enabled Foley to continue to prey on House pages.
