Incredible spin. I can unspin it for those who are confused.

MJF did another ad for Ben Cardin which is almost exactly the same as the one for McCaskill. Ben Cardin voted against a bill which would allow only adult stem cell research. Therefore people can spin it and say he's against stem cell research. Truth is Ben Cardin doesn't want to restrict stem cell research to only adult stem cells and he favors embyonic stem cell research.

How convenient that Slyrr didn't mention Ben Cardin anywhere but mentions McCaskill deliberately trying to confuse people.

And it's quite clear that Talent opposes embryonic stem cell research, but favors adult stem cell research. So we can spin that too and just say he favors stem cell research and therefore we can say MJF lied. It's just playing with semantics to twist reality to your own view.

I'm still curious how the fact that MJF did an ad for Arlen Spector in 2004 fits into this tin foil hat conspiracy. In the 2004 ad for Arlen Spector, MJF makes it quite clear that the Republican candidate is the white knight on the silver stallion riding to the rescue of those who suffer from Parkinson's and other diseases. Convenient how the people who attack MJF leave that tidbit out.

Only thing I agree with Slyrr is: "All they hear is what they want to hear". Yup. I don't know why I bother responding.

I'll upvote it, even if the thing with the Governor doing it to serve his country is a bit corny.

I also want to add one (sarcastic) comment. "33,000 new business have started up since the end of the war." The war ended? When? I guess we can go home right? Mission accomplished! lol

That scene is my favorite part of the movie. (I don't know why, I know it kind of feels dragged out.) Didn't the clip used to be on VS? Must have got nuked. Oh well.

I upvoted because I like thinking about philosophical arguments. One thing bugs me about this speech. Aren't the film makers parasites as described by Roark? They took Ayn Rand's creation and profited off it. "The creator thinks. The parasite copies. The creator produces. The parasite loots."

Incredible ignorance from Slyrr. I doubt he watched the vid, just came along to troll. I don't want to dignify trolling, but just this one comment:

>> 2) MJF says (albiet indirectly) in his commercial that Democrats want to cure the disease, while their Republical opponents want to keep people sick.

MJF says in the interview that he has backed Republican candidates and done commercials for Republicans. So 2 is just a lie. MJF said it's not about red state vs blue state and D's and R's.

Goes well with this Daily Show Clip:

Funny thing is they predicted it over 2 months ago.

I can almost see their navels! Tee hee.

Now that's comedy!

I'm sorry I skipped over this gem. This is friggin' hilarious!

Yeah, very cool plane, but horribly fuel inneficient. It was designed pre 1970s oil crisis. I think the price of oil has more to do with it being retired than the crash. (Admitedly, the crash was over hyped.)

About fuel efficiency from wiki:
Concorde travelled, per passenger, 17 miles for each gallon of fuel (mpg)(an efficiency of 20 litres per hundred kilometres (l/100km)). This is comparable to a Gulfstream G550 business jet (~16 mpg or 18 l/100km per passenger), but much larger than, say a Boeing 747-400 (~91 mpg or 3.1 l/100km per passenger)

This one doesn't have the same amount of WTF factor, but it's pretty cool.

I can't just leave a mystery like this alone. So I googled around. I found a transcript of an interview from Maurice Gibb (the one on the far right) commenting about it. Here's the link:
http://www.napathon.net/CliveAnderson.php

But to be honest, after reading the link, I still don't understand any more what the big deal was. Are they really that sensitive and incapable of a taking a few jokes?

Cool show. I'll have to check out more of it.

I don't get why they walked off either... but I think it makes it much more funny that way.

Looks fake. And the consensus on YouTube seems to be the same. Looks like they took Mohammed from an earlier show and took "Jihad jihad" from Team America. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6J3SP4LlGsA

They already had Mohammed on the show and there was no outrage or censoring before. The whole controversy is just fake outrage by a bunch of insecure muslims and some imams whipping up support by preaching against perceived threats against their way of life. You see the same crap in America by ignorant fundies.

"/puts on tinfoil conspiracy hat". And if we are talking conspiracy, it's a lot more likely the fake outrage is a conspiracy to bully Denmark around. Denmark sits on the UN security council. Iran and other arab states are trying to push them around to get their support against sanctions for Iran and for anti-Israel resolutions.

Gimme a break marinara, South Park in a conspiracy to piss of muslims? Watch the whole South Park episode. They have Jesus pooping on the American flag. Do you see christians outraged? (ok, some were Watch any episode, they ridicule all religions.
