Or in the case of one of the big three cable news networks, not so much news. That's right, Fox News... let me start over.

That's right, MSNBC is the no-news news network (http://stateofthemedia.org/2013/special-reports-landing-page/the-changing-tv-news-landscape/). A full 85 percent of MSNBC's programming is dedicated to opinion programming. CNN dedicates 54 percent of it's air time to news reporting, followed by Fox at 45 percent.

So the next time you think about who is the political news arm of one party think MSNBC, aka The Obama Administration in Exile (http://www.realclearpolitics.com/2013/02/21/msnbc_the_obama_administration_in_exile_302484.htm l).

What's a little disinformation between friends, as long as you know the bias you can take it or leave it

Only the retards at MSNBC pretend they don't have any... or more like they are dumb enough to think they don't have any.

It seems as though your cable networks amount to Hobson's cholice.

Hobson's choice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobson's_choice)



Speech, in relation to the answer to your question:

"at the time period of what?"

There is a short answer and a long answer. Perhaps I can give short answer here and save the long stuff for the correct thread.

With respect to the Heller and Miller decisions:

The weapons available to a militia and those weapons available for the use by individuals for self-defense are one and the same.That is to say, those weapons deemed legal by Federal and State statutes.

With respect to the Heller decision:

There is an important distinction to be made between "in common use" and "in common use at the time".

Using in common use as a general term leaves open the possibility that proposed legislation can be seen as subject to the Heller decision. Whereas,"in common use at the time", restricts SCOTUS to making a ruling on weapons that are in common use at the time of the courts deliberation.

What does anyone else think?

We call it the DNC headquarters... but you can just as easily call it the DNC Ministry of Propaganda... or the Department of Disinformation... since the OweBama White house determines what the lame stream media will report... and they foolow orders from their messiah like good sheeple... or their White house press credentials will be taken away from them.

I would go with the latter. Either would make it tough to ban AR-15s.
