The guy I like (ron paul) has a lot of idiots blogging for him that actually embarrass me.
The stock market forums are even worse. You have to stop reading analysts, stop watching tv, forget everything you could count on in the past, and go with your gut & hope for the best.]]><![CDATA[ImNotBlue @ 9/8/2008 5:34:47 PM]]>328341«siennablue : I'm glad you see that It's only a question of who has less integrity ... kind of who's the worst presidential candidate, b...]]>2008-09-08T17:34:47+01:002008-09-08T17:34:47+01:00«siennablue : I'm glad you see that It's only a question of who has less integrity ... kind of who's the worst presidential candidate, because both are bad."Journalistic integrity" is different than regular "integrity." Since I view all those shows as television shows, and the hosts are nothing more than actors portraying a particular point-of-view, I don't really like to talk about them personally. To me, that would be like seeing a movie, and thinking that's how that person was in real life.
I think I'm very cynical when it comes to television news... but perhaps that's not a bad thing. :)]]><![CDATA[siennablue @ 9/8/2008 4:08:30 PM]]>328275«ImNotBlue:IMO, his show has even less journalistic integrity... and is more of a propaganda and recruitment program, than an actual discussion pr...]]>2008-09-08T16:08:30+01:002008-09-08T16:08:30+01:00«ImNotBlue:IMO, his show has even less journalistic integrity... and is more of a propaganda and recruitment program, than an actual discussion program.I'm glad you see that It's only a question of who has less integrity ... kind of who's the worst presidential candidate, because both are bad.]]><![CDATA[ImNotBlue @ 9/8/2008 10:59:50 AM]]>327998«siennablue : To me, the coverage of the conventions was totally boring.

Olbermann has his place at the throat of Bill O'Reilly, and Bill O'Reilly .. vice versa. That's when they're entertaining ... great comedy ... Glenn Beck has started to become an outside challenger of late, to both.A way WAY outside challenger. But the main difference between O'Reilly and Olbermann... and even Beck and Olbermann is the way they present their program. Both O'Reilly and Beck have all kinds of people on, and debate their points of view. Olbermann, on the other hand, doesn't... he only speaks with people who agree, rarely explains or expresses the other view point, and spends much time belittling and insulting from afar.
IMO, his show has even less journalistic integrity... and is more of a propaganda and recruitment program, than an actual discussion program.]]><![CDATA[siennablue @ 9/8/2008 6:02:10 AM]]>3278602008-09-08T06:02:10+01:002008-09-08T06:02:10+01:00<![CDATA[JoshSF49 @ 9/7/2008 10:23:44 PM]]>327724«ImNotBlue : Well, I would have... but by the time I finished reading the story, you had already posted.
