Conservatives begin to sound like whiny children when we constantly point out the double standards of the media. How many sentences have we began with "If [insert any Republican name here] had done that?" We would sound like <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liRSXULdJw4" rel="nofollow">Borat and the grocery store clerk in the cheese aisle</a> if we pointed out every instance every day.windbaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06849477338372901623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587842796867542781.post-10244626426151760032012-04-08T18:03:57.049-05:002012-04-08T18:03:57.049-05:00The cites Derbyshire debated are not conclusive &q...The cites Derbyshire debated are not conclusive "facts." They can be debated. Most of Derbyshire's conclusions were his own subjective beliefs and are not true or false. They just are. Most of his statements were about keeping his family safe. They were not intended to hurt any persons, only to protect his own. <br /><br />I disagree in part.

I cancelled my subscription to NR largely in protest of his repulsiveness. When I e-mailed NR I told them that they would continue to lose credibility and readership if they continued employing that cretin. So, I can't intelligently comment on the crisis at hand, but I can say that I'm happy that loathsome being has a smaller audience. Whether or not he was fairly tossed doesn't bother me in the least.<br /><br />In a sane world, Barry's comments would end his career.windbaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06849477338372901623noreply@blogger.com
