Well, it’s pretty sure that on top of creating an artificial controlled recession just in time for the elections, the retards in Washington are actually set to blow a few bazillion dollars of money we don’t really have, to “stimulate” their political image. On top of the ridiculousness of the whole “stimulus package” charade, they are actually argued over language that could have easily resulted in giving rebates to illegal aliens, (as if it was debatable) & then proceeded to cut out high income earners from getting a rebate altogether. Way to go Washington! They managed to close that loop hole, but no word on what to do about the gobs of illegals who have false identities & social security numbers, so they’ll still get a check. So lets recap; In effect, we penalize the law abiding people who pay the most taxes, but be sure that some illegal aliens can send our money out of the country where it’s worth more over the border! (at least for now)
Perhaps some of these Washington idiots are addicted to Viagra, & therefore can’t get “Stimulus” out of their heads?
Today I heard that some retailers are actually finding that people are putting off buying things, because they’re waiting for that big check to come in April or May.. Wow, that immediate stimulus really worked great huh? It’s causing people to HOLD OFF ON SPENDING, instead of spending now to head off this (albeit phantom) recession..
This is just really out of hand, & I’m thinking we need to punish the Republican party for going along with it, by not voting for any of their pseudo conservative candidates. I’m doing a write in vote for Michelle Malkin in the General Election if McCain wins the nomination. I’ve had it..
The Senate Finance Committee approved a stimulus bill that would give $500 to tax filers who earned less than $150,000 in 2007, or $1,000 to married, joint tax filers with a combined income less than $300,000. Each child under 17 would be worth another $300.
The committee vote Wednesday was 14-5 — with just three committee Republicans joining all the Democrats on the panel.
The new cap is higher than the House-passed version, which places a $600 limit on singles making $75,000, or $1,200 for joint-filing married couples who make $150,000. With assorted other elements, it raises the package to a cost of $193 billion.
Baucus, under tremendous pressure from his Democratic colleagues to cut America’s richest taxpayers out of the rebates, made the changes, and Grassley spoke favorably about the caps being inserted despite his preference for no caps.
But that’s not the only point of contention. An extension to unemployment benefits is shaping up to be the central fight when this bill makes it to the Senate floor.
The Finance Committee bill extends unemployment payments for 13 weeks to those whose benefits have run out, with 26 more weeks available in states with a 6.5 percent unemployment rate.
It’s McCain in Florida, & a hurricane in my stomach.. Maybe I’ll write more after I throw up my Dinner.. If we wins the nomination, I may have to sit this one out, or vote for Obama in protest should he beat Billary..
A few years back I remember being shocked at the allegations that were being levied toward Debra Lafave, a very attractive & highly intelligent school teacher from Tampa Florida. After watching the details of the story unfold, my shock turned to anger as the details of the case came to light seemingly in slow motion over the next couple years.
Admittedly what I knew of the case came really only from the 10 second sound & video bites that I managed to catch while passing by a TV, or checking the news on the web. Like most I expected fully that from what I knew, she would have the book thrown at her, regardless of her beauty, cuteness, or appearance, because of the severity of her crimes.
As a man I was both very aware of the double standard that men often face in regard to sex crimes when it comes to the perception. Men who commit the same crime that Debra did are often viewed as sex hungry evil monsters with no regard for life or humanity, while often women offenders are portrayed as emotionally unstable, or traumatized, & therefore surely not fully responsible for their actions.
When Debra Lafave’s sentence was handed down, I was completely livid & felt like many did, that had it been a guy against girl offense, the guy would have gotten 10 years hard time minimum. I felt offended that men are so often treated more harshly than women when it comes to handing down a sentence.
But then I recently watched her interview with Matt Lauer, & could not help but see some of the same personality traits possessed by relative of mine. A young woman who like Debra, so seemingly inexplicably engaged in the most bizarre sexual behavior, had an absent (alcoholic) father, anorexia, bulimia, had at least one attempt at suicide, & who eventually developed Bi-polar depression. Now before I go any further, I’m not making total excuses for Debra Lafave, but I am going to clarify that mental illness & childhood issues were certainly a huge factor in her behavior, just like they were in the case of my relative. In the case of my relative no laws were broken, but certainly her behavior was self destructive.
In subsequent years, & in hopes of understanding my family member’s problem, I became interested in the psychology of young females. Watching Debra speak, & looking at her facial expressions & body language told a story that would escape me had it not been for the number of books on child psychology & family issues I’ve read. It is my experienced opinion that Debra Lafave was in fact seriously mentally ill at the time of her offenses, & as a result of a number of factors. I also do not think that she was lying about her feelings or experiences in her interview. I’ve read comments around the web saying that she was “trained in the latest pop psychology.” These people clearly haven’t thought this through. If bipolar wasn’t a legitimate illness, do they think for a minute that insurance companies would pay for the medications? Yet they pay millions every year in benefits to people who suffer from this, because sound scientific medical data supports the claims.
What was most evident to me in her interview was that she had suffered a number of trauma’s that could contribute to post traumatic stress, thus leading to chemical imbalance in the brain. Without knowing her family history however, it’s not possible to know if there is a genetic link to her illness. The loss of her sister would be considered a major trauma. But the bigger question was why did Debra see her sister as the ultimate anchor in her life? My experience tells me that it was likely due to a weak or non existent father figure. It struck me as no co-incidence that Debra’s father has never been mentioned by her in any interview or story I could find.
After watching her come up in the media time & time again, to the point of being obviously being exploited because of her looks, I decided to look into her story. What I’ve found is a case of true mental illness behind a pretty face, & a lot of sick media & idiots that are willing to exploit it for their own reasons. As much as I detest the Main Stream Media, I felt that Matt Lauer actually treated Debra Lafave (now back to her maiden name Beasley) with fairness, & at the same time, did not give her a total pass on her actions.
The place where Debra failed, was where she didn’t ask for help when she knew that her thoughts were becoming irrational. The place where her family failed was when they most surely saw signs of her behavior, & didn’t firmly demand she get help. The place where her doctor at one point failed, was giving a bi-polar patient anti-depressants, instead of a mood stabilizer, with an anti-depressant IF the anti depressant was necessary.. There’s a key question that any patient with emotional distrubances should always be asked; “Do you sometimes feel really excited & happy, & then very sad & depressed within hours, or in the same day?” The answer to that question could uncover whether or not the patient is suffering from bipolar disorder. In fairness to Debra ’s physician, or any other doctor, they can’t easily treat someone who doesn’t give them accurate answers to their questions. I have no way of knowing what the doctor asked in Debra’s case, or how she responded.
Society has failed Debra in that people often overlook signs of mental illness in beautiful people, because they just don’t want to believe it could happen to such a beautiful person. They are too busy either wanting something from them, or lifting them onto a pedestal that only increases the likelihood of severe injury when they finally fall off of it.
Debra Lafave is not a Monster, or a habitual sex offender in my humble opinion. She is a scared little girl who was not given the tools of self esteem that can only come from her father’s affirmation, or after the fact, from God himself. That coupled with a Bi-Polar brain chemistry problem was a recipe for disaster.
To all the “hot for teacher”, photo searching sicko bloggers who have taken joy in her misfortune, lets not forget that you’re as sick as she is (or more accurately was.) I have even seen people who claim to be conservatives call her a pedophile, & yet they make comments about how “they’d still hit it.” You’re sex addicted if you say things like that, so shut your hypocritical mouths & get help yourselves! These are South Park pseudo conservatives with shit for brains, period. Their shallow & uneducated opinions should be immediately disregarded.
Owen Lafave, Debra Beasley’s ex husband did write a book on his own experiences with this tragedy. In his book he describes a distant relationship between Debra & her father, as well as a militant religious upbringing. Of these, the greatest to note is the distant relationship between her & her father. I cannot stress how devastating this is to the psychology of a young woman, no matter how beautiful she is born. Without her father’s affirmation during her pre-teen years, all the way through puberty, she will NOT understand her worth, & will not have normal self esteem.
This is NOT pop psychology either, but a hard cold fact backed by years of sound psychological research.
So what is my message? My message is this, Debra “Lafave” Beasley didn’t get off as easy as one might think by watching the surface stories in the media, or reading the uneducated & perversion laced opinions of even some who claim to be conservatives on the web.
She will likely always need medication to keep her serotonin & dopamine levels stable, & until she has finished her 7 years of probation, she’s required to wear a tracking device. She has also been portrayed as a slut on the internet, & exploited over & over. She will be a registered sex offender for the rest of her life. I want to go on record as saying I think the exploitation is unfair, & that it should stop.
I do not see Debra as having any risk of re-offending, because she’s now getting treatment for her disorder. Of course there’s no way of knowing that, but I think under her circumstances, her defense team’s psychologist probably saved her from herself, & more importantly her untreated illness.
Now I know a lot of people are skeptical of the defense of mental illness. I can’t say I blame you completely, because until it affected my own life & family, I was pretty hard to convince as well. But then when I actually put down my prejudice & investigated the matter, I found that the facts of mental illness are irrefutable. When you think about it logically, you realize it only makes sense. People take Tums for antacid because of problems with the balance in their stomach acid, or Prevacid (the little purple pill) if they have a severe acid reflux. Why? Well in fairness to the facts, sometimes it’s because they do not eat as they should, but other times it’s because the sufferers are overweight due to a hereditary thyroid problem. So as you can see, if the stomach can get out of balance, or the sufferers of Gout can suffer because of acidity in their system, it follows logically that brain chemistry issues must be a legitimate possibility.
I believe that eyes are truly telling, which is why doctors look at them to tell if you’re drunk, on drugs, or have a concussion. In the following picture, I believe Debra was almost completely disconnected from reality, as evidenced by the blank lifeless appearance of her eyes & facial expression.
In the next picture, after she’s subsequently been receiving treatment, notice the change in the appearance of her eyes & facial expression.
Debra Lafavre is both a victimizer, & a victim, that is the truth of the matter. In her interview with Matt Lauer, she took full responsibility for her actions. She even stated that she thinks she should be in Jail. This is a case where I actually disagree. What she should do once she is recovered to a safe level, is spend her days educating people on the risks of untreated bipolar, & the consequences of not getting the right help. She’s no good to herself, God, or society, if she’s in jail, or pasted all over tabloids, anymore than Marylin Monroe was when she was drugging herself to death in bed, pre viable treatments for BiPolar disorder.
In closing I want to say that we should hate the sins, & not the sinners, for we all have had our moments. We should not judge too quickly, especially when our judgment is made devoid of sufficient fact finding, & most importantly, we should encourage those who are sick in our society to heal & become productive whenever possible. Debra Beasley should also not be made an example of, just because she happens to be attractive. It’s not right, & anyone who searches their soul carefully has to admit it, if they have one. Her chances of re-offending in my experienced opinion, are no more than anyone else at this point, & I believe that the assessment by the court & her psychologist was both sound & factual in this case. I may receive some blowback about this, but that’s ok, because I know that my analysis is fair & factual.
I did not hear a lot of illegitimate excuses from Debra Beasley, & I hope I never do. What I do hope is that she’ll use her experiences to make something of herself that her father Jesus Christ in heaven can be proud of. I also hope that she will finally realize the Love of the ultimate father, & make him proud to call her his daughter. Additionally, I pray that our society will see clear to letting her, & her male victim heal in peace. ~ Dan Lee

Well Teddy Kennedy managed to crawl up on top of the liquor cabinet long enough to endorse Barack Obama today.
“It is time now for Barack Obama,” Said Ted Kennedy.
Translation:
Holy Smokes! He ran Hillary over like a pigeon on the Mass Pike in South Carolina.. It’s time for me to endorse this guy.
He stood with Obama, his son Rep. Patrick Kennedy and his niece, Caroline Kennedy before a boisterous full capacity crowd of students at American University in Washington, DC.
“Like you, we want a president who appeals to the hopes of those who still believe in the American dream,” he said.
Translation:
To hell with principle, or past loyalties, we need to get behind the one that can win this thing.
“I’ve found that candidate. And it looks to me like you have too,” he said.
Kennedy says he has always planned to “support the candidate who inspires me, who inspires all of us, who can lift our vision and summon our hopes and renew our belief that our country’s best days are still to come.”
Translation:
“I’ve always planned to pick the candidate who has the least chance of getting hammered into the ground like a cheap tent stake by the Republicans. Besides, speaking of getting hammered, how am I supposed to go out drinking with Hillary? She starts crying after a one glass of champagne.”
After getting nervous about Bill Clinton’s repeated gasket failures while talking to (or yelling at) the media, it looks like the ranks of the Democratic Party are starting to file in behind Obama lockstep. I’m not sad, & nobody in their right mind should be, as I think this country has had enough of the Clinton’s & their scandalous political practices to last us oh….. for eternity.. Bring on Obama, I just Love a spirited & legitimate Presidential race. I mean I know we’ll beat him, but at least with Obama it will be a debate mostly on the actually issues, instead of a campaign that’s financed by 75% SHADY MONEY, & court battles to make last minute changes to the voting system. There will also be less crying. ~Dan Lee
I’ve been seeing liberal media elites around the web running to the aid of Dana Jacobson by accusing Christians of being unforgiving, yet last year they nearly universally called for Grey’s anatomy actor Isaiah Washington’s head on a platter until they finally got it, because he called someone a “fagot” in an argument. Don Imus was portrayed by the same as spawn of satan for saying “Nappy Headed Hoes” in reference to the Rutgers girls basketball team, & dropped by his network as a result.
So again, why the double standard from these main stream media hypocrites? How can they justify letting a blatantly vulgar insult to Jesus Christ himself & all Christians stand, by letting Dana Jacobson keep her job without apologizing specifically for her insult to Jesus?
I’d like her to explain to me what Jesus did to her to both deserve the vulgar public insult, & then never receive a public apology? What Dana? What did he do to you?
She didn’t even apologize for, or admit what she really said! She made a general & vague apology, & that just added insult to injury.
Dana Jacobson’s poor excuse for an apology: (or more likely a publicists’ version)
“My remarks about Notre Dame were foolish and insensitive. I respect all religions and did not mean anything derogatory by my poorly chosen words.”
Where’s the apology to Jesus or Christians? Nowhere, that’s where..
ESPN, if you have nothing to hide, why not release the tape of the roast? We all know it exists, & then we can get a real apology, & have the whole truth out there. It’s hard to forgive someone when you’re not getting straight talk, or full disclosure from them that shows they are really sorry. Forgiveness also doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have to live up to the consequences of her actions. What amounts to one week’s vacation for Dana Jacobson is not really much of a “consequence” now is it? Some may ask if I’m trying to see her made an example of? YES! YES I AM! I want these media morons who can’t control their mouths to see that when you hurt people without even giving an honest apology, you are going to pay a price! I want her to apologize to Jesus & all Christians publicly. THEN, & ONLY THEN, will I stop calling for her to be fired.
Religious rights leader, Rev. Pat Mahoney of the Christian Defense Coalition, Thursday called for picketing and a prayer vigil outside ESPN’s Bristol, Conn., headquarters Friday at noon. He told Cybercast News Service that he plans to continue with the demonstration as planned.
“I respect Bill and the Catholic League, and I understand why he might do so,” Mahoney said. “But ESPN has to step up to the plate here. Imagine the outrage if Ms. Jacobson said, ‘F–k Mohammed,’ ‘F–k Jews,’ or ‘F–k African-Americans.’”
“We’re simply asking that the parent company of ESPN, ABC, treat this incident the same way they did when Isaiah Washington publicly used the word ‘fag’ when referring to a cast member,” Mahoney said. “Although the faith community can forgive and extend mercy to Ms. Jacobson, she still must assume full responsibility and accept the consequences for her hate-filled rhetoric.”
Again, I promise ESPN I will write about this ever week until we get a specific & sincere apology from Dana Jacobson for maligning the name of Jesus Christ without an apology, or she is fired. We need better quality personnel in media, & this slap on the wrist she was given is not how to set the example.

I was hoping that Black Voters would stand up for their guy seeing as how the Clinton’s pulled out the Ugly card right after N.H.
Bill Clinton recently predicted that Blacks would vote for Obama in S.C. & Women would vote for Hillary, but didn’t explain why he thought that was, thus leaving he & Hillary once again open to the criticism of being “Race Baiters” & “Gender Baiters.”
Unfortunately for Hillary it gave a bad impression to black & white voters alike. Was Clinton implying that Blacks are too shallow minded & racist themselves to vote for a white man? Maybe he wasn’t, but that’s the appearance he gave when he made this statement without explaining it. Or maybe he just knew that Hillary’s campaign deserved it after she minimized the accomplishments of MLK, & released a statement saying that; “Obama hadn’t done the necessary SPADEWORK to be president.”
Whatever you believe, you can’t blame blacks for being suspicious of his motives given the lack of explaination, & for sending a message to Hillary Clinton in SC, by voting for Barack Obama.
In any case, it’s good that people voted for the candidate that’s clearly been more honest. I am not an Obama supporter by any stretch of the imagination, but I do respect him for beiig both pretty consistent on his positions, & for taking the smear tactics of Clinton Inc. with absolute dignity. I think that’s paying off for him now, & if there is justice in the world Obama should have a fair shot at going into the ring with our conservative candidate, for a fair fight based on issues & not race.
In South Carolina, Obama has basically handed Clinton her ass in a bag & said “have a nice day Maam..” Good for him.. She & her husband are some of the most dirty politicians of modern times, & this country doesn’t need them. He’s running a clean campaign & taking the high road, & I hope this gives him the momentum he needs to win the Nomination. At the time of this writing, the reporting precincts has him at having received 54% of the South Carolina vote.
I hear she’s headed up here to Nashville now.. I gotta go find some Holy water & a box of wooden stakes (just in case.)
This Emo Hillary video is really funny & almost true, except Hillary is just a good actor. I think she’s pretty much seared her conscience completely, & the only emotions she has left are hatred, lust for power, fear & anger towards anyone who has conservative values. ~Dan Lee
Looks like someone in that MSNBC crew or staff is trying to hide what actually occurred when the ghost whisper saying “He Raised Taxes” was mysteriously heard right before Romney responded at this weeks Republican debate. They need to come clean about exactly how this happened. If they are going to claim it was an audience member, then tell us where the mic was exactly, & whether it was a unidirectional mic, (a mic that pics up from only one direction) or an omnidirectional mic (a mic that can pic up in all directions.) I don’t see any logical reason a media studio would have an omnidirectional mic set up during a debate, let alone why the sound engineer would have a mic in the audience wide open (turned up) while a Presidential candidate was speaking. Omni mics would only be useful to catch applause, & this wasn’t that kind of taping.
Nobody seems to have mentioned the most important fact of the matter. The “professional” main stream media has people like Helen Thomas trashing bloggers for being “unprofessional”, yet they can’t even figure out which mics were open in their studio, who was standing by them, or if the signal path was breached.
With that kind of security it’s a wonder something worse didn’t happen. People who speculate & slander the Romney camp without proof about how it happened need to pipe down, because there a lot you may not know about todays sound technology.
As a professional & trained sound engineer, I can assure you that if any wireless mics were used? Anyone in or even near the studio could have got on those frequencies with the right knowledge. I’d be willing to bet wireless microphones were in the signal chain. Furthermore, any of the MSNBC staff off camera could have been on those frequencies with a mic, or hard wired with a mic.
Secondly, this appears to have been a cue to Tim Russert to expand on his question with Romney, not a prompt for Romney himself. Notice how Russert butts in interrupting Romney to ALSO say that Reagan raised taxes, right after the whisper. This was also a veiled slam on Reagan politics by the way, & planned carefully by MSNBC. It’s designed to imply that anyone who associates themselves with Reagan will raise taxes, & is therefore a bad candidate.
Thirdly, this is the run up to the PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, & if this action is in it’s final result slandering ANY of the candidates, there should be a thorough investigation by the proper authorities, as this isn’t an election for Class President of some high school.
Lastly, this clearly just goes to show that the Main Stream Media cannot be trusted for competency in reporting.
There’s more & more coming out on the Clinton’s very dirty associations with the dark age human rights, anti-Semitic, anti-worker, anti-union, and anti-woman Arab state of the UAE and its emirates of Dubai.
Bill Clinton is a paid adviser and member of the Board of Directors of Yucaipa. Together, the Sheik and Yucaipa have formed a new company, Dubai Investment Group Limited, to jointly invest Yucaipa funds and the Sheik’s personal funds.
So Bill Clinton is now an adviser and member of the board of directors of a company that is in partnership with the government of Dubai — a part of the world that blatantly discriminates against women, abuses workers in violation of international law, outlaws unions, deports strikers, and bans Israelis and their products from ever entering the country.
The Clintons won’t reveal how much the former president pocketed for setting up this deal, except to report on Hillary’s Senate disclosure form: “more than $1,000.”
It’s a lot more. According to San Francisco Examiner columnist P.J. Corkery, Clinton makes $10 million a year from Yucaipa.
At the same time, the average worker in the Dubai and the UAE construction industry makes about $177 per month, not enough to support a family. According to the U.S. State Department, 98 percent of the workforce in the UAE is made up of foreigners, who Human Rights Watch are for “indentured servants, with no right to form unions or hold strikes.” About 20 percent of them work in the Dubai construction industry. Most of these workers are illiterate and have paid huge fees (usually with loans) to get the job. It is a routine practice for employers to withhold paychecks for several months and to hold the workers passports as “security.”
You know I have to ask, if Dick Morris who used to be one of Clinton’s right hand men wrote this article, than who better to know what kind of corruption lurks behind the Clinton facade?
This story is truly damning if people would take the time to read about the wholly corrupt nature of Bill & Hillary Clinton.
Here’s a bit of an overview of the United Arab Emirates with whom the Clinton’s have conspired to make millions of dollars at the expense of poor & uneducated slave laborers.
The fact is that much of the mainstream media in it’s persistent dereliction of duty will not inform the voting pubic of Clinton’s schemes, so if you’re reading this, & you care about your country, you need to tell people. E-mail the story to people so that they can see the danger of even greater corruption invading our government than we already have presently.
I mean do we really want a President of the United States who’s been in bed with an extremist Islamic state? No matter what your political party affiliation is, you may want to think back to the USS Cole Bombing, & the kind of loyalty we say from Yemen when they decided to turn loose the Mastermind of the bombing for no apparent reason (other than being known for their prior sponsoring of terrorists.)
These countries are enemies, & our own leaders & large corporations are sleeping with the enemy. Putting the Clinton’s in office will guarantee that we get more of the same, & that their $$$ interests will be put long before our security interests as a nation. They will sell us out for power & profit, make no mistake people. One only needs to look at where they’ve been, to see where they’d take the rest of us.
Is the above picture ESPN 1st & 10 co-host Dana Jacobson’s contribution to being a role model against college binge drinking? Way to go Dana!
Dana ESPN 1st and 10 co-host Dana Jacobson should be FIRED! FIRED ESPN! Do you hear me? Because if you don’t, I pledge to write about this once every week until you fire her. You disgusting cowards in the main stream media need to start treating Christians with the same respect you treat every other religion. In the eyes of millions of people Your so-called “host” has spit on Gods name, & you give her a one week suspension?
For the readers: ESPN’s 1st and 10 co-host Dana Jacobson’s on camera comments were:
“Fuck Notre Dame,” “Fuck Touchdown Jesus,” and “Fuck Jesus”
To those of you who are offended by seeing the words Fuck & Jesus together on my page, I am truly sorry. I did not think it would ever come to this in my country either. However unlike the mainstream media who have all but buried this story to protect one of their own star moonbats, I am NOT going to let her off so easy. I am not going to soften the blow of what she said by inserting cute little asterisks & other characters into the word FUCK to spare us all after the fact. The fact is she said it, & she should have to deal with the consequences of crossing the line from free speech, to what media liberals would immediately have condemed as hate speech had it been levied towards gays, blacks, muslims, or just about any other group that is protected by hate crimes. What she said was hateful, & the only difference between her drunk & her sober, is that the alcohol removed the gate from her mouth, & showed us all what she really thinks of Jesus & even her own Christian viewership. Why the double standard ESPN?
You pushed Rush Limbaugh out in 2003 for saying the following:
“I think what we’ve had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well,” Limbaugh said. “There is a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of this team that he didn’t deserve. The defense carried this team.”
McNabb said Wednesday that he didn’t mind criticism of his performance, but was upset that Limbaugh made his race an issue and said it was too late for an apology.
“It’s somewhat shocking to hear that on national TV from him,” McNabb said. “It’s not something that I can sit here and say won’t bother me.”
If ESPN 1st & 10 co-host Dan Jacobson does get let off with only a week suspension, it amounts to a free vacation for insulting the whole Christian world, & sends the message that you can attack Christianity without any serious consequences, to media people everywhere!
Had this (or any remotely controversial comment for that matter) come out of the mouth of Sean Hannity, or Rush Limbaugh (as evidenced in the past), the main stream media would have it pasted on every front page for a month straight demanding an FCC investigation as well as their immediate firing. Had it been said about Muhammad, you would (in fairness) have no choice but to cover it, because there would be US flag Burnings,threats against ESPN, Death threats for Dana Jacobson, & calls to Jihad worldwide.
Now I’m going to watch the search rankings on MY story carefully, because I wouldn’t be surprised to see that liberal search engine companies also try to bury my rankings on it. My message to Dana Jacobson is this, get a job where to don’t have to speak, because you clearly can’t control what comes out of that abysmal mouth of yours. As for all of you sheepish men who made statements about how beautiful she is, & how much of a great commentator she is, you are all out of your minds, & may even need to get hormonal therapy if you think her looks have anything to do with the issue. What she said should get her fired if for no other reason than to be fair, just like the partial list of people below. ~Dan Lee
Gregg Easterbrook(fired by Disney & ESPN) for allegedly anti-semitic comments he made on his own blog.
Lamar Thomas fired by ESPN for making comments “encouraging fighting” while commentating on a brawl during a Miami & FIU football game.
The following statement was made by Comcast Sports SouthEast general manager Mark Furhman: “We do not support or condone the inappropriate comments made by color analyst Lamar Thomas and have taken the necessary steps to prevent a similar situation from ever occurring again.”
What a crock of crap.. I guess the sports media’s news standard for discipline is a 1 week vacation. So those are the “necessary steps” huh? I’ll watch for that next time a white Christian male makes a “controversial comment” on TV, & lets see if that same one week vacation punishment is doled out.

Don’t you dare ask me any tough questions media people! I’m trying to get into the frat ho… I mean White House again, & you’re in my way! You just have to watch him go off the rails again when he’s asked a question he doesn’t like. You can see that he’s running for the Presidential election just as hard as Hillary is & he becomes more like Hugo Chavez every day. The great Clinton gods are not to be questioned!
