America has problems, but America is NOT THE PROBLEM!~
Convenient or intentional?
Published on July 24, 2005 By Moderateman In Blogging
What’s up with all the blogs here on Joe user that only give information that supports the argument put forth by the author?

One blog shouts Innocent man killed in England, telling the story, BUT leaving out one important FACT, that the man was ordered to stop by the police.

Disobeying a lawful order given by law enforcement after they identify themselves is a crime in and of itself.

No one questioned why the man jumped a turnstile and ran from the police after ORDERED to stop.

Another blog shouts Karl Rove ousted Plame, leaving out two important facts, one that plame was not undercover and two that Rove has not even been charged with a crime.

I know we all love putting our own perspective on things, but to leave out facts that support the opposing view is just plain bad writing and misleading.

We all get annoyed when we see one side or the other put “spin” on something, yet we do not hesitate spinning something ourselves.

I find this hypocritical to say the least.

my threads get hijacked alla time


maybe years later I wont care either, who cares how personal anyone takes that, if one exceptionally persistent hijacker has a "streak" for 2 months on my thread, I was still dreamin there was something blacklisting was meant for at all, its about the QUALITY OF MY THREADS in general for 2monthsn more then, only thing not personal bout that being these hazards make EVERYBODY less productive intentionally. Dont take it personally, anyone here, if I watch this thread a bit less.

the great thing about being down, is there is no where to go but UP..


Not if he continues to post plagiarized articles, MM, as he did the other day.

I honestly have no idea why you continue to encourage this loser. Your choice I know, and I've never been the type to tell my friends they have to like who I like and dislike who I dislike, but damn, MM, sometimes its wise to cut bait and run.

This just might be one of those sometimes.


maybe but as someone that was once a scumbag to be kind to myself, I just have to believe that people can change {it's the AA thing} if I see no change after a while I will back off.

MM, I have laid everything out...whether you continue trust me (while in probation mode...) is up to you, I've enjoyed your articles...bye...

Wise decision, Elie.

As i said, I honestly dont have a problem with who you decide to befriend, I'll still luv ya either way. I just hate to see him 'borrowing legitimacy' by ingratiating himself to you, which I suspect makes you feel like you're obligated to support him when he gets himself in trouble.


naw whip ya have me wrong I am one those people that take in stray cats, birds with broken wings, invite the homelss for meals, ya know trying to balance the karmic wheel.
