Can we please put a rush order on the backlash?

[complain jane]

I'm getting family valued to death over here.

MSNBC just ran a commercial where that ass Scarborough is allegedly going to tell us what America Needs To Do To Put Solid Family Values Back In Sports, apparently to prevent another debacle like the "basketbrawl" incident.

I'm going to fucking hurl if I have to listen to this for four years.

1. But....that brawl happened while Republicans controlled all 3 branches

of the gubmint?

:shrug:

I thought we were all valued up and stuff?

4. It's the Clenis' fault

Don't you know, if Clinton hadn't diddled with Monica, Ron Artest and friends would never have gone up into the stands attacking fans. :evilgrin:

2. Unfortunately, this is only the beginning.

I suspect that the current attitudes will look pretty tame compared to the society we end up with after another four years of Bush.

3. Yeah, but pubs love to see them hockey fights.

5. Amen to that.!!! n/t

6. it will take 2 years

and america will come around to what the rest of the planet & 49% of us already know: bush is a joke that isn't even funny.

he will end his term in pure disdain.

7. Um... I'd love to share your optimism but,

somehow I feel that if he didn't manage to land at the end of the last four stolen years of stupidity, arrogance, incompetence and utter douchebaggery, it's not looking too good for 2008 either.

8. You know...I have a book by a woman named Joyce Rebeta-Burditt

with a very good passage:
"People say they want television to better inform them, but they don't watch CBS Reports or NBC White Paper. They say they want culture, but symphonies, documentaries, opera, and the ballet end up last in the ratings. They say...they say...but what they watch is something else."

People watch Fox (the regular channel) because they like crap. They do not want family values otherwise why do we not have the Waltons 24/7? The people who are in charge know this but they do not talk about it.
