Free Speech: You Get What You Pay For
People are always complaining that the media is too “liberal” or too “conservative.” The Media is always looking for a way to make people angry/mad/scared. That’s how it makes its living. A parasite that feeds on fear and vanity.
Matt claims that the media is “too liberal.” But I still remember when a certain embassy was bombed in Africa, and all I could get on T.V. was stuff about sperm on a blue dress. Did the media ever cover WHO bombed that embassy back when Clinton was President? If they did, I never saw it.
Liberals can claim that a “too conservative” media was trying to defame Clinton. (Living in Arkansas, I had enough evidence to defame him. I didn’t need more.) Conservatives can claim that the “too liberal” media was trying to downplay the bombings by focusing on sex shenanigans at home. Either way, sperm on a blue dress and stories about oral sex get better ratings than black people in Africa who died working in a U.S. embassy.
You gotta play for the rubber-neckers if you wanna make a living.
One of my childhood acquaintances — a beautiful and charismatic pathological liar — is now a journalist. I’m happy she found a way to use her talents to earn a living.
I, on the otherhand, could care less about striking fear into people’s hearts or winning awards for my lies. I take care of people, whether they deserve it or not. And on the weekends,
I GO SAILING!
Today I had the misfortune to accidentally turn on the T.V. when “60 Minutes” was on. I saw John Kerry saying something about how Lincoln never invoked God when he was talking about the Civil War. Ummmm, hello. Is he trying to change history on primetime television? The Gettysburg Address does indeed mention God. Sorry, Kerry. Perhaps you oughta brush up on your U.S. history. I hope you do so, before you actually get voted into office. It’ll be helpful.

Can someone actually win Atheist-votes with lies?
I see the word “God” there. I wonder which Gettysburg Address John Kerry read.
I am absolutely in love with my new job. My coworkers are all really great. A nicer bunch of people, I could never have imagined. Some are Christian, some are Buddhist, some are Muslim, some are Sikh. But we all are working towards the same thing, and it cheers me to be with them, even if it’s 2 AM, and I have another admission from orthopedics.
Joke from a surgeon:
Q: “What do you call a 19-year old motorcyclist with no helmet?”
A: “The perfect organ donor.”
