Can you believe anything the media reports apart from the sports scores?
Q. This election and the twisting of news clearly shows that the media is trying to usher in a golden age of socialism with Obama steering the boat...Germany 1927 all over again. Can we believe anything the polluted media reports apart from scores and highlights from sports events?

A. No. They are a propaganda machine for Marxism. Denny M.--Listen to Comrade Obama's 2001 radio interview with Chicago Public Radio, and then look at his buddy Bill Ayers, and then his childhood mentor is Frank Marshall Davis. This guy has hung around communists all of his life. Do your research.

A. Ron Paul is the only non-socialist candidate. People are so entrenched in their parties that they don't even realize this. Democrat, Republican, doesn't matter. It's all socialism. Except Ron Paul. The media likes socialism, and will promote the candidates that promote it.

How much influence do you think the media has?
Q. How much do you think they manipulate a situation or circumstance to steer it in a particular direction.
Asked by samootch - Fri Feb 2 18:26:52 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The amount of influence depends in large part on the person receiving the information. Some folks listen w objectivity & process the info in a manner that it's integrated w other things they alreadt knew. Many others on both sides of an issue hearonly what they wish to hear, or that which confirms the opinion they already hold. The media does have a great deal of power in general as they control what receives the most coverage, & by what reporter, & when it airs in a report. For instance they show far more instances of violent behavior than of someone being a good citizen, because they know violence is what sells. Too many people honestly believe that everything on TV/radio/newspaper/intern et must be true...because they aren't "allowe [cont.]

A. You definitely have warped brake rotors. Re-machining - (temporary) or replacement with quality American AC-Delco, Wagner or British (EBC) rotors is the only permanent repair. Avoid cheap off-shore brake rotors. Cast iron quality is terrible! They'll rust and warp faster than good quality parts.

A. Hillary can do anything she wants and the mainstream media (the Networks and Major Newspapers) will never call her on it. The major players in those organizations are all Democrats and won't do anything against their own party. Can you imagine the non-stop reporting we'd see if it was a Republican candidate? The democrats don't preach values like honesty or integrity so no one is surprised when one of them acts dishonestly. Sad but true.

A. I own a shop, and deal with a lot of old vintage/muscle cars. The way to do that is; Get the vin number from your vehicle, and contact General Motors asking how many of those were produced. They go by your number, and can enter that into their computer, thus finding out how many in that sequence were produced before a change was made. Sometimes you get the information, and sometimes you don't. It just depends on who you get to talk to, and what kind of day they are having. My dad worked at GM for years, and it was like pulling teeth even for him to get the information. Sometimes you can even get this information from a dealer parts department if you have a pretty rare vehicle. GM puts out books on their vehicles, and it may even… [cont.]

The White House officials are eager to avoid the perception that the president is directly engaging critics who appear to speak only for a vocal minority, and part of their strategy involves pushing material to liberal and progressive media outlets to steer the coverage in their direction, senior advisers said.

What is a good medium to large breed dog that will be ok indoors?
Q. My girlfriend and I are going to be moving to Mexico at the end of the summer, and we've decided we are going to get a dog for company when we get settled in. We will be staying in a medium sized appartment, but will have lots of time and places to take the dog for excercise outdoors. We would like to find a good sized dog, but one that won't go crazy if it is inside for parts of the day. Also, it will be in a year round warm climate. I'm very interested in a Rhodesian Ridgeback, but have heard they are not best for first time dog owners. Can anyone offer any advice?

Countless wonderful dogs are abandoned because of changes to their owners circumstances that render the dog inconvenient and this is something to consider. If you are ready to take on a commitment to this little soul for life, then doing research like you are is the best way to ensure that you get a dog that suits your lifestyle and tastes. Because you are a first time dog owner, make sure you consider what you are getting into.

What is a safe towing weight for a 2004 Nissan Xterra?
Q. My parents are going out of town for a camping trip and are planning on towing a camper (approx. 2800 lbs.). Their only towing vehicle (1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager) was totalled in a accident on Sunday morning and so my boyfriend offered his '04 Xterra for them to drive. He is concerned, though, about the weight of the camper. He towed a "medium-sized Uhaul" when he moved about 2 years ago and said it almost ruined his power steering. We looked up towing capacity and it should be safe but I would like to know for sure. Thanks!

Q. The truth is,George is probably guilty.The problem is he was fitted up by the Police who were loathe to follow more difficult lines of enquiry for reasons of cost,likelihood of conviction and political repercussions. So they fitted up the local retard.Job done! The evidence against George was entirley circumstantial yet the Forest Gate muslims were freed without charge despite overwhelming evidence,including huge stashes of cash and even child porn. If I was cynical I would say that high profile police cases are steered by politics rather than the pursuit of justice. Answer quickly,all previous questions criticizing the Police have been deleted.
