At 112, I don't understand this whole "internet" thing -- and that's an awful lot of sass from those there whippersnappers! Also, how come I can't get Matlock on this damned thing? WHERE'S MY PILLS?! GLORIA, THERE'S MIDGETS ON THE TV AGAIN!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Hmm. Yeah, I see what you mean. We seem to be doomed to be constantly debating the snuff rule. Even when we nail it down in the guidelines there's a lot of leeway for interpretation. Look at it this way - Lucky is like Sonia Sotomayor and I'm Ruth Ginsburg - and you're um ... Johnny Cochran - no wait, he's dead - Your're Matlock ... You state your case and we look at precedence, I don't want to go against Sonia - maybe I would fall on the other side of the line on that last case, but there's no way Ruth Ginsberg is going to second guess Sonia Sotomayor - even if you are Johnny Cochran, or Matlock - or whatever.

I hope that's clear - the point I'm trying to make is ... we probably need to be consistent on these things, but it's tough.

They could be trying to build upon the success of the Fox News Network, but I think that the entertainment tastes of that demographic could already be fulfilled by USA and TNT. I mean, there are only so many hours of Murder She Wrote and Matlock episodes to show.>> ^dystopianfuturetoday:

It's not from the 'Left' so it's terrible?
From the channel: Videos of terrible, awful What-Were-They-Thinking commercial/pop-culture products/releases. Terrible music videos, movies, TV show clips, toys, etc. Things that some corporate exec decided to actually give a green light. The sorts of things that you watch, and think "SOMEBODY should have known better that to release that". The stuff that's so bad, you can't help but share.

Washed up sitcom personality pimps a network which intends to broadcast original programming based on the partisan politics of the republican party? That's textbook terrible. I'm surprised you don't agree.
Check out the promos on the channel, which include republican reality shows, republican comedy showcases and another show where republicans play poker. It's a goldmine of fail

^ Matlock is on too!

Toys, claws, potatoes, and Department stores? I'm confused, back to Matlock.

"I have voted for candidates from both parties in the past."

Yeah, Green and Democrat.

Cu_tingham, Fonz and Matlock need to be Malachi crunched between two Hummers.

I think a few bits were left out. From the LA Times, http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/09/mccain-letterma.html

#10 "I just contributed to your campaign – how do I get a refund?"

#9 "It’s Sarah Palin –- does this mean I’m pars’dent?"

#8 "Can’t you solve this by selling some of your houses?"

#7 "This is Clay Aiken. Is McCain single?"

#6 "Do you still think the fundamentals of our economy are strong, Genius?"

#5 "Are you doing all of this just to get out of going on Letterman?"

#4 "What would Matlock do?"

#3 "Hillary here –- my schedule is free Friday night."

#2 "Is this just an excuse to catch up on napping?"

#1 "This is President Bush –- what’s all this trouble with the economy?"

Now I'm no Ben Matlock, but a woman wearing a balaclava (look it up) is probably not a peaceful protestor. Nor is that wannabe (an insult to real Ninja-Americans) in the background.

While I'm not a fan of cops in general, I sympathize with their plight. This is hardly police brutality. The modern thugs police have to take abuse from before corraling and arresting are no better or thoughtful than rioters after their team wins a sporting event. (Police don't cause riots either, agitators in the crowd do).

Since we have an all-volunteer military, what right do these "peaceful" protestors (no doubt in alliance with anarchist and communist groups) have to demand lawful military recruiting centers be shut down?

These "activist" thugs should travel to the Middle East to disrupt islamofascist recruitment if they want to "increase the peace."
