2009, I’m out of work again Olbermann, kinda like Obama trying to talk about a non-exsistant record
@
Sam
I would argue that people that have not seen the timeline in Libya are misinformed. You are not going to get that information on MSNBC.
I changed two votes from Obama to Romney by directing two friends to FOX news where they saw the timeline on Libya. They had heard about Libya but had no idea what really went on with failure to help Doherety and Woods and the cover up.
If the corrupt partisan media covered the scandal in Libya O. would have no chance.
That couple watches the corrupt partisan media and were shocked when they got the truth about what happened in Libya. It changed their whole opinion of O. They had thought of him as a strong honest leader.
@ papa,
“I changed two votes from Obama to Romney by directing two friends to FOX news where they saw the timeline on Libya. They had heard about Libya but had no idea what really went on with failure to help Doherety and Woods and the cover up.”
Again with the Libya witch hunt. Give me an ACTUAL evidence that :
1)Obama knowingly that the attack would happen , intentionally denied aid to the consulate.
2)Obama knowingly that the attack was committed by a terrorist group, intentionally hid the fact.
If you don’t have ACTUAL evidence then the rest is just speculation and witch hunt. It sound just as bad a Jones and Ventura’s conspiracy theories about 9/11
Hey Papa, I just heard your water may have been contaminated by raw sewerage. Is that in your area?

‘STAR WARS’ Returns — ‘Episode 7′ Slated For 2015…
RATS???? I TOLD you that wasn’t the potty
That was a repsonse to
Hey Papa, I just heard your water may have been contaminated by raw sewerage.
Libyia witch hunt???? Four dead and a paper trail a mile long and testimony before congress and loons on the left are calling it a witch hunt to protect their liar in chief!
@
Ratboy
That is down the coast. It is a mess down there.
@
Sam
Who sent Susan Rice on all those Sunday shows to blame the video 5 days after the attack? The President is last word on whether to send in troops in a crisis situation.
Just because the corrupt partisan media does not investigate does not mean people can’t draw reasonable conclusions about what happened. When they are given the proper information.
*’STAR WARS’ Returns — ‘Episode 7? Slated For 2015…

Huh. As long as Lucas isn’t writing and directing.

@Matthew
Huh. As long as Lucas isn’t writing and directing.
Disney has just bought out Lucasfilm..developing
so I don’t know yet if Lucas will direct
@Matthew…Lucas will not direct it
*Disney Bets on ‘The Force’ In Buying Lucasfilm for $4B
Disney announces purchase of ‘Star Wars’ maker and says it will release trilogy of new films, with first in 2015
The seventh movie, with a working title of “Episode 7,” is set for release in 2015. Episodes 8 and 9 will follow. The trilogy will continue the story of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Princess Leia beyond “Return of the Jedi,” the third film released and the sixth in the saga. After that, Disney plans a new “Star Wars” movie every two or three years. Lucas will serve as creative consultant in the new movies.
Sam: twisting someones words is not information it misinformation. From my informed liberal friend “who is this Ben Guasiy guy anyway’ Dont talk to me about informed!
SP: What is so bogus about throwing Susan Rice out there is that at the time of the attack their were only 155 hits on the video. How many Libyans speak English. How many hits were even from Libia
The media cover up to help O. get re-elected is a national disgrace!
@
The lefties
If there were a Republican in that White House there would be a feeding frenzy in the corrupt partisan media about Libya.
There would be literally a thousand stories about Libya from many different angles. A Republican President would be destroyed by the corrupt partisan media.
“Lucas will serve as creative consultant in the new movies.”

Good, good good good good. I still think the old starship models and puppets in the original trilogy look better than the computer-generated doo doo in the new ones. Also, the old, real sets, instead of making people act in front of a green set. Also, using more than two camera angles. Also, not directing your actors to be wooden and lifeless. Also, letting other people write and direct
@
Matthew
It is like the difference between watching the original Rocky and watching Rocky 4.
One is a classic and the other one is cartoon.
@Matthew
computer-generated doo doo in the new ones
