It was a horrible call! Holmes (Jets WR) pushed the Broncos DB aside to get to the ball - so Hill hooked his facemask on the way past. The contact was illegal on the part of the WR in the first place - so if they really had to call a penalty, it should have been on the OFFENSE! To call the second bit of contact in that game deciding circumstance - horrible call.

Hmm.... Media Matters is very careful in these headlines to state a lie in words that are technically true.

The headline states that Beck revived a Soros-conspiracy which was anti-semitic. When the Malaysian Prime Minister was blaming Soros, he tied it in with an anti-Jewish accusation. So, when this theory first came out it was tied to anti-semitism. Beck did bring up the theory. So, by technically breaking down the words, Media Matters is correct. However, by putting them in that order, they make it sound like Beck is being antisemitic (even though, if you read it more carefully, the headline doesn't actually say that). It's a case where you use true words to tell a lie.

Palin - I'd never take her life if I could avoid it. But what she is doing - it is on terms with somebody like MLK Jr. Arousing hatred from one side, but sticking up for what is right. I don't think she'll be president - I don't think she'd be very effective there (more about the people who hate her than about her). But as the leader of a movement... she has something going that could very well save the country.

Exactly what hit me. Then I saw the demotivator with that line for this pic - it just fits.

If these are the highly touted medical benefits, they hardly make a dent against the obvious potential for abuse (since it is already abused so frequently).

Seriously, the only reason it is a popular cause (legalizing marijuana) is because people want to use it for more than just "medicinal" purposes. I'm not opposed to that argument (though I'm not sold on legalization by any means), but lets at least be honest what it's all about, not just try to keep pointing to the medicinal use as the issue.
In my state, medical marijuana was legalized. But dozens of improperly licenced stores popped up and started selling it beyond just to medical perscriptions. It has been a problem for our City Counsel all year - how to stop the abuse now that "Medicinal Use" is legalized. And it's not working out well at all.

And Obama said he'd been in all 56 states during his campaign. Politicians say stupid things because everything they say is recorded - eventually you can get a good soundbite that makes no sense at all.

Besides, I think that "Palin fact" was made up - I know several of those "Palin said" things were invented by bloggers who were against her.

Burning a book is a far cry fro vandalizing a building. The book was (apparently) owned by those burning it. If it was "vandalism", the building would not belong to those destroying it. That, of course, is why vandalism is wrong - it is destroying somebody else's property.
