28. Very few details but 11 or more Interior Wonks...
all oil & gas men involved in major sex/corruption scandal.

Ha Ha Ha Rangle was supposed to be the 'dirty' talking point of the day - just got eclipsed!!!

I knew it wasn't your story - no McCain.

29. Remind me not to do that again


Turn on CNN, that is -- of course they switched the topic to Rangel immediately. Every other sentence coming out of that newsreader's mouth is GOP propaganda. They're equating Rangel to the breaking Interior Department news -- it's utterly despicable.

FUCKING CORPORATE MEDIA.

Love that line from a viewer- "Clearly when the Republicans were chanting drill, drill, drill, they weren't talking about oil wells."

38. Please don't bother posting shit without any information as to WTF you're talking about
I don't have a TeeVee, like many others on DU. so such posts just waste my time
and band-width. thank you.

39.  No, it didn't. After posting the headline so many/most could
catch it for themselves, I immediately came back to the thread and typed out what was happening - or were you too lazy to read beyond the headline?.

I am doing this with a cast on my left hand and if I had waited to type it all out - it would have been over. It was breaking news with no details - he just said he had 'breaking news of a major Interior Dept Corruption Scandal' - that was all. I wanted as many as could to see/hear it for themselves not hear it from me.

And if your bandwidth is that restricted - I can probably suggest a better provider.

40. Sorry about your cast, may your hand heal soon.
as for asking OPs to at least give some shred of info in the original post as to what it's about,
I'm not apologizing for asking for that, as I feel it is a reasonable request, and it's a standard
I hold myself to as well.

While I can make exceptions in cases such as yours (what with your cast and all), I still feel it
is generally incumbent on OPs to provide some shred of information as to what they're "OMG-ing"
about.
