Donut and pea soup consumption must be up...ay?

And the increase happened in spite of not having to turn on the lights in nor people driving to the NHL arenas in fall/winter '03

I heard on NPR yesterday that Donald Rumsfeld was "bored" with Iraq.

That's one of the reasons I'm against this adminstration, because its full of people who can't or won't handle responsibility - such as getting armor to the troops AS FAST AS POSSIBLE - or who deliberately ignore expert advice on post-war conditions (http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/news/20051013/index.htm)
because it runs counter to their pretty ideologies.

All I want is politicians who give a damn. I'm not seeing that.

Wow, NPR! Rumsfeld must have spilled his guts to their reporter or else they wouldn't have said it. Uh, wasn't this post talking about global warming?

"Uh, wasn't this post talking about global warming?"

Not entirely, Mitch started it:

"Because, like Iraq and the economy and pretty much every other key issue facing the Bush Administration, the opposition, in this case Kyoto, is a matter of spin and endless repetition of tropes by the left's surrogates in the media?"

I am responding to him by demonstrating opposition which is based not on spin, but on reported facts.

"Wow, NPR! Rumsfeld must have spilled his guts to their reporter or else they wouldn't have said it."

You're welcome to your opinions of NPR. I am welcome to my factual statistics on public perception of NPR's reporting quality (Tarrance Group & Lake Snell Perry & Associates nationwide opinion surveys on behest of the CPB, 12/2003), which places you in the 9 percent who disagree on their reporting quality and the 13 percent who believe it is not fair or balanced.

Any politician would kill for those kinds of negatives.

Fell free to keep throwing spiteful attitude devoid of factual content around, I really don't see you going anywhere with it. I prefer to stay within the reality-based community myself, when I post here.

I found it interesting that as Mitch was lamenting the "spin and endless repetition of tropes" of the left - implying a lack of factual basis - that you responded to my factually based reply with a drive by spittlefest (or, in kinder words, "spin and repetition of tropes").

Irony isn't your bag, is it?

My point (more of a drive-by eyebrow-arching than spittlefest) was more about the "facts" being reported than who was doing the reporting. In other words, in "reality" has Rumsfeld said he's bored, or is the source for this reporting some unnamed generals who wouldn't possibly have an agenda, even if some of their most treasured appropriations and strategies have been dismissed by the SOD? (And wouldn't that be ironic?)
