Tea Party to Launch New Magazine at CPAC
SNIP - Guess who's coming to save print media? The Tea Party, that's who! Next week, amid all of the Islamophobia and cosplay that typically transpires at the Conservative Political Action Conference, attendees will have an opportunity to sample the inaugural issue of Tea Party Review, the conservative-insurgent response to the "lamestream" media, and also, possibly, the IFC show "Portlandia."

It's called the Tea Party Review. :rofl:

4. If you want to understand the issues regarding Islamophobia.

You have to understand the spiritual aspects, and the nanny state material aspects.

Those against Democrats calling them Islamic, are talking about the nanny state concepts of rule that are in Islam more then other religions, not about the spiritual beliefs. And some programs that are more left that are against libertarian ideas.

I am libertarian left, where the restrictions and regulations should be against companies that steal freedom by economic oppression against much of the population by consolidations and ill conceived notions of 'money first' setting social policy. I am not for nanny state democratic ideas that hinder rights of average people, only those that correct the hindering of rights by consolidations.

The Ford Town was a Nanny state by corporate control, as is breaking unions, nanny state by corporate rule.

I can show why they are wrong, they are a crutch, and take rights from people that do not do wrong.



But most can't understand that most religions have a spiritual concept, and a material social concept. Many people that say they are of a faith, only look at the material social aspects of that faith not the spiritual. Which in my view is a bias added to a faith, not about the faith.

People have a right to make money, but when the consolidation of that money unjustly removes the beer and travel money of a mostly just person by smear and fear, then they have to be broken up, and that beer and travel money must be paid.

is that a picture of Burgess Meredith? He's one of my favorite actors. My BF's father built a house for him, and said he was one of the nicest people he'd ever met. This was a long, long time ago.

Another reason to like the man:

EDIT: Autobiography and personal life

In 1994, Meredith published his autobiography, So Far, So Good. In the book he confessed that he suffered from violent mood swings which were caused by cyclothymia, a form of bipolar disorder.<2>
Meredith had four wives, including actresses Margaret Perry and Paulette Goddard. His last marriage (to Kaja Sundsten) lasted 46 years, and produced two children, Jonathon (a musician) and Tala (a painter).
Meredith was an outspoken liberal and clashed with Senator Joseph McCarthy, which led to him being blacklisted for a few years in the 1950s.

10. I like that episode of Twilight Zone.
I have heard he was a nice guy from a few people.


Hard to explain, but you can see his character in his acting, why I like most of the roles he played in films. Although he also got in both sides, which is interesting also, and also fits with 'can't be sure'

But anyways, I like his statements in that Twilight Zone episode, but try not to read much more then that into it.

5. "See Dick. See Jane. Run, Dick, run! Here comes Spot."
I know, far too intellectually challenging for the average Teabagger.
