Samson primitive tries eye-grabbing headline; gets shorn

Oh my.

Perhaps the Samson primitive should take lessons from franksolich, about how to write eye-grabbing-but-accurate headlines.

CNN Poll shows America disapproves of the black church 2-1
   
http://www.cnn.com /

Sad, but not surprising. Rev Wright gives a speech that could have been delivered at any of a thousand black churches across this nation, and two-thirds of the people say he is divisive. Then I say they better never come to my church then!

Its only an online poll. But it definitely reflects my experiences in this country. This is a complete national repudiation of black people as a whole.

4. Your post is misleading.. the question is about Wright, not the church.

Wright's speech was about the church, not himself. America disapproves.

53. Haven't you ever heard of an eye-catching headline?
   
I don't really expect the headline to be a paragon of accuracy - it can be used by the poster to express an opinion, satirical, or whatever. The content of the OP is what's important, and that's accurate and informative. Perhaps you should not get so caught up in superficialities.

Like when a primitive says Patrick Buchanan said "slavery was the best thing to ever happen to black people".....and Patrick Buchanan said no such thing?

Anyway, this is a really big bonfire, careening out of control all over the place.

Frank, baby

No matter what happens in November, it has never been a happier time in ConservativeLand (and the ajoining RepublicanLand).

You cannot BUY the laughs we are getting as they tear themselves apart.  And things like hussein's Big Press Conference a few minutes ago make it better and better and better.

Someday we will look back on this as the Golden Time of Conservative politics.

My sides are constantly hurting from LOLIRL so much.

And you are on point and we love you for it -- H5 as always!

I liked the present survey:

Quick Vote
The top economic worry for you and your family is:
Paying for gas
Job
Health care
Paying rent or mortgage

No bias there. My biggest worry is democrats raising tax rates.

I have a good one:

What worries you most about GWB?

He eats kittens
Hates black people
Will institute martial law
Wants polar bears to be extinct


What a load of pure crap.
