Correct, ignore the lies
disenchantedcitizen
by disenchantedcitizen  9-3-2009    1
 ‘News judgment’ is what has been sorely missing. There used to be a wider gap between media publications that are derisively referred to as ‘supermarket rags’ and legitimate media. The danger in the “he said, she said” formula of reporting is that lies get undeserved media attention. When a lie gets printed it takes on a sort of legitimacy that manipulators have learned to use to their advantage. Journalists have a hefty responsibility to the general public to not allow lies to gain legitimacy and also to their profession to maintain a high ethical standard in presenting honest, truthful news. Readers must share equally the responsibility of debunking lies. Critical, informed thinking is the only way this nation is going to move forward in debating issues that matter most to us. Reality can sometimes be ugly and distasteful, but we need to see it with clarity if we are to turn it into something positive.

AARP is coming under criticism from its own members
dl211
by dl211  8-11-2009    1
 AARP officials say the organization is used to being attacked, by both conservatives and liberals, and wears the bipartisan criticism as a badge of honor. "The AARP speaks out of both sides of their mouth and tells their constituents or their members one thing and do another," Barton said. Bipartisan hell, they're in the tank with Obama right alongside MSM. I never wanted to join this sham of an organization, my wife signed us both up for it. Now you can bet they will have to strike 2 from their membership role. The AARP is one of the most hypocritical organizations around, on one hand they con the elderly into believing they (AARP) actually give a damn about them while they side politically with the opposition. Every member should help AARP to eliminate the stress they are under - divest yourself from them, that would alleviate the headaches of conning folks into thinking they actually give a damn about them.

What Hinders YOUR Obama-adulation?
davboz
by davboz   6-14-2009    2
 We witness the dying-off of Mr.&Mrs. John Citizen. Tradition. Values. Those people in that ranch-style home on the suburban lane; the family in that bungalow and their thousands of neighbors in every corner of the city; or those farms and scattered homes out on the road to the next town; in the many homes and apartments, most believed in what made America strong and free and in sustaining that for a lasting America. They were Democrats and they were Republicans. That was not the main issue. It was the body of America vs. people with subversive notions, Communist sympathizers, or any other loony or dangerous ideas. Differences were to be discussed and decided, and then all came together to face down those that would undermine us. Not any more.

10 Signs of Intellectual Honesty

 "When it comes to just about any topic, it seems as if the public discourse on the internet is dominated by rhetoric and propaganda. People are either selling products or ideology. In fact, just because someone may come across as calm and knowledgeable does not mean you should let your guard down and trust what they say. What you need to look for is a track record of intellectual honesty. Let me therefore propose 10 signs of intellectual honesty."

Obama's Self-Actualizing Language
billpar
by billpar  5-8-2009    1
  It'll remain open for months as his administration struggles with what to do with the detainees. Yet he spoke the words as though the closing had already happened. And in the minds of some of his followers, it essentially has. One can explain his phrasing as the rhetorical projection of a future event into the present. Sort of a verbal promissory note. But, when you refract it through his campaign language, it becomes another example of a pattern. It's just one blossom of his self-actualizing use of Hope and Change. The words "fiscal responsibility" aim to conjure up an image of leadership competence. Obama proposes an astronomical budget and then, from the same lectern, extols the virtues of fiscal responsibility. In this case, words trump reality in what is the gold standard, literally and figuratively, of self-actualizing language events where words are disconnected from reality. It's as though God said "Let there be light," and even though it stayed pitch dark, the people

Using pot as a teen may affect thinking
clip-on-tie

 The researcher said he believes illicit use of THC during adolescence produces persistent changes in the brain that sensitize females to the negative effects of THC later in life. A group of 12 female rats, 35 days old -- an age equivalent to that of human teenagers about to undergo puberty -- began to be exposed to THC chronically for 40 days. Half had had their ovaries removed when they were 30 days old, half retained their ovaries. The day after the 12 females finished the period of exposure, they underwent an extensive training process consisting of pressing colored keys in a specific sequence in order to obtain food pellets. The female rats went from a 25 percent error rate to 50 percent error rate, Winsauer told United Press International. The study was presented at Experimental Biology 2009 as part of the scientific program of the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics in New Orleans.
