| "Moral Values" in the Wake of the Election |
|
Edited on Thu Nov-18-04 01:44 AM by jhgatiss
I was just watching the replay of Aaron Brown's newsnight. They had somewoman - Rebecca Hagelin I think was her name - from the Heritage foundation. They were discussing the "outrage" and the Monday Night Football skit last night. They showed clips of it before the talking heads portion and I didn't think it was that bad. No appreciable nudity and some sexual inuendo....
What really ticks me off is that we have THOUSANDS of people dying in Iraq, this election DEBACLE, an advocate for TORTURE as the AG nominee, and we're wasting our time talking about THIS? WHAT IN THE HELL? I'm sorry but this isn't morals and values at all. What's everyone's take on this? How can we wake the media and the country up to the RIGHT priorities?
Edit: Oh look we can e-mail Ms. Hagelin! staff@heritage.org Subject: To Rebecca Hagelin

| 4. Not to mention Tom DeLay |
|
and the rules change in the House. It's theater of distraction so the people don't know what's really going on.

killing innocent children in Iraq who were never aborted is not having bad "values".

| 7. The Heritage Foundation is all about |
|
spreading fascism.
The "morals" issue is important to them because it is a vehicle of control by the Big Government.

| 10. Here's my favorite definition of Heritage |
|
from "The Coors Connection," "...an agenda of austerity for the poor, hostility to minorities and women, upward distribution of wealth for the rich, economic domination of the Third World, with repression and bloodletting for those who rebel."
About says it all, eh? This country is right where they want us.

| 8. You sill watch that shit? |
|
WOW?
Free clue, bread and circus and they don't care what YOU THINK
They care if you buy their products not if you watch.
Want to have an effect, WRITE their sponsors and boycott them
Otherwise, forget it.
