I remember TV talking heads absolutely gushing about Reagan's speeches when they should've been analyzing content. Did you complain about that, or will you pretend you don't remember?

I just want to see consistency from Conscience. By the way, there were TV things who gushed about Bush, too. At least in this newsgroup, I saw no complaints.

That's about the most unbiased journalism I've ever heard from Olbermann.

Right. I keep a notepad & pen in the living room so that every time I see something on the TV news, I can jot down all the details. This enables me to find it for you later, if it happens to be online 8 years later.

Maybe you didn't realize that my post was a parody of you own posts, making all kinds of ridiculous demands for proof, and ordering people around like a Nazi Stormtrooper.

Your next post will demand proof of what I just said.

IOW you have experience with him, but he doesn't have experience with you.

Sure. You're the penultimate human. Nobody has capabilities which you don't.
