Oh, STOP using the absolute CRAPPIEST news sources there are
Why not link to WorldNetWhatever like you usually do, while you're at it -- or was that where Yahoo (I'm not clicking through) got that drivel from?
Or is it just that you're too lazy / confused / shitfaced to READ the *whole* fucking article?
Coz in other meeja -- even other *Yank* meeja -- they knew that A) The wife HAD already filed for divorce; this was from the frigging divorce proceedings!; and B) The judge has been replaced already. (So there seem to be analphabetics not only in Yankland but in Canuckistan too. Yes, Jake, that means you.)
Really, seriously, Bill: PLEASE try to use a somewhat better level of Web sources in the future. It's fucking *embarrasing* to watch you wallow in the tabloid-est troughs of slop you can find.

OT: Interesting thought I just had
When we're reading a news story, or getting it second-hand from Bill, some of us seem to think it matters where that info came from. Almost as if knowing the source of the information will color our evaluation of that information, in a way that we want it to be colored.
So if we know who is giving the president his information, would that give us useful information on which to evaluate the outcome? Or should we, when it comes to politics, base our opinion strictly on the public policies that come out the other side of the process?

I run into that every day
in a Yahoo groups community heavily populated by people who have exposed themsleves as white, conservative/Neoconservative, Republican viewpoint accepting posters. Nearly anything I link to gets slammed because it comes from the "MainStream Media (MSM)" which everyone knows, is "librul" and thus always wrong. Therefore, anything of value in the post is ignored because they attack the source of the post.
Naturally, over the past year I've decided that "if you can't beat them, join them" and attack THEIR sources as being totally biased to the Right. Ex: Fox News.
They see their sources as being "right" just as I see my sources as being "right", on topics like mankind's contribution to global warming, for example.
It's been reduced to no more than a "Yes it is - No it isn't" daily pissing match; to the point where one person left and created his own community and invited several of us to join. However, I've questioned him to the point that we're creating exactly that from which we're running away from; namely, a community of people who pretty much share the same viewpoint on most subjects and have disdain with those with whom we disagree. There's no real difference between our community compared to the original - we're like the "tails" side of the coin to their "heads" side.
