Goreld posted:The word's been pretty corrupted over the years. What is labeled 'conservatism' is actually 'authoritarianism'. Case in point - if U.S. Republicans were truly conservative, why are they completely unwilling to reduce defense spending? That's why they came up with the word 'neo-conservative' but it seems like the distinction has vanished for whatever reason.

Obviously it's just proving Glen Beck's prediction of an Islamofascistsocialcommunistic caliphate correct.

Time is bad, they may not be directly sensationalist but they suffer from the same 'must report both sides of the issue no matter how retarded' problem as many news outlets.

Narmi posted:What's wrong with Time's reporting both sides of an issue? Is it the way they do it? Unless they're biased towards one side, this is usually a good thing since it can expose the flaws of one (or both) side(s). The reporters in Libya interviewing Gaddafi and his family are what showed the world how crazy he is, and probably helped drum up support for the rebels. It's bad when reporting the other side means giving a page to Jenny McCarthy to rant about the evils of vaccines. Bobfromsales fucked around with this message at 04:27 on Mar 27, 2011 |

Zappatista posted:I'd figure that the 'not knowing when to quit' thing could be worse for him. I don't see him as someone who'll go into exile and retire to a lakeside villa to gleefully spend the fortune he brutally extracted from his nation. Nope, he'll either want to keep giving speeches from exile or start crazily putting together a plan to take his country back the moment he settles in. Who would want to take in someone so potentially destabilizing? Which reminds me, what the hell happened to Mubarek?
