2. Yes, he works for Time magazine
As owned by AOL Time Warner as owned by the Saudis.

The Saudis now own part of Disney, part of Newcorp, and the largest chunk of AOL Time Warner stock. They love Bush and ALL of their networks reflect that.

Once you know who owns what you can guess exactly what any pundit will say before he says it.

Stewart was tops, he dominated that interview and handed Klein his ass.

7. Yeah, I heard that too.
But he still seemed thrilled with Bush for some reason. And he did seem to be serious about spreading so called "freedom" Weird.

10. Sounds like there's only one "assfuck" around here...
I'm Jewish. I'm the same age as Jon Stewart. When has JS so blatantly ragged on Palestinians?

Awaiting your answer, ASSFUCK...

11. Jon is against anyone killing people over religion .
He is a non practicing Jew of the egnostic persuasion.

He is against fundies of all kinds, I'm sorry if you were offended by any of Jon's comments. I think you are taking it the wrong way.

12. Melody my friend...
RE: your words about Jon Stewart...

"He is a non practicing Jew of the egnostic persuasion...He is against fundies of all kinds, I'm sorry if you were offended by any of Jon's comments. I think you are taking it the wrong way..."

YOU JUST DESCRIBED ME, as well as Jon Stewart...

Please DO NOT feel you have to apologize to people such as this guy; he's out of his league. Thanx anyway...

13. Okay, that's malarkey. BUT
...sure, Daily Show's good for a howl, and Stewart can be genuinely insightful whether he's slapping one side of the issue, or the other (and he slaps around both sides, which is why some might think he's an assfuck).

But I can't help wondering if Mess-O'-Potamia and all the other snarky spoofs of right-wing insanity don't...make it all a little too palatable, too acceptable, too "sure, Li'l Dubbie's a dumbass but there's nothing we can do about it except laugh and roll our eyes."

Stewart's more trustworthy than any of the major "real" news sources--but he'll never show anyone the true threats that are bearing down on us, because he's a comedian, not a buzzkill.

I'm not about to stop watching, but I just wish someone with that much clout could BE the buzzkill we need, and actually defy the Rove Media Machine rather than use it for gag material.

14. Pogroms were done to peaceful people
Not one of whom ever killed a busful of children or sent someone else to blow up a market or a restaurant.

This noble savage image of the Palestinians is utterly false, engendered by something ever so much uglier in the psyche of people who insist they only hate "zionists."

But do go on.

15. Okay...vs the third strongest military in the worl, with wmds up the wazoo
Edited on Fri Feb-04-05 05:53 AM by CWebster
that has violated more UN resolutions than Saddam and is backed by the world superpower to carry out an illegal occupation which includes bulldozing homes, farms and monopolization of water. Outside the US they are recognised for what they are, inside the US, information is so tightly controlled on this subject, that the truth is taboo and the knowledge that three or more times as many Palestians, have been killed in recent years, than Israelis, goes unnoticed.

Events do not occur in a void.


But do pull out the anti-semitic charge to hide it all.

18. Vs. a postage stamp of a nation.
Edited on Sun Feb-06-05 04:45 AM by aquart
With how much population? How much acreage? Surrounded by......is your math deficient?

Israel has NO oil. The large nations flanking it do. They have tens of millions of population. I love your belief that Israel could knock out a combined force of those nations.

Israel must be the giant boogeyman under your bed.

Teeny tiny country. Everyone does military duty because there aren't enough people to let someone else do it. BIG MONSTER in your mind. And don't forget, Jews are clever. MONSTROUSLY clever.

So, someone comes into your hometown and blows up a bus full of women and children. YOUR response would be...............
