So I just put MSNBC on the same block I have Fox on.

WeDidIt is apparently not happy with news coverage of the king zero speech.  Check out this ostrich/control freak:

 I'll take it off on July 1 to see if they've stopped being complete idiots.

It's CNN only for me for the rest of this month, if I turn Cable news on at all.

66. Who needs cable "news" bullshit when there's Yahoo News and Google News?
 But then, never let facts get in the way of a good personal attack.

7. "If the news doesn't say what I think, I will stick my fingers in my ears"
 That works.

11. I use the Parental block from my cable provider
 Just lock the station.

I'm the only person in the house with the PIN, so if I block a channel, nobody watches it.

 nobody else in the house can watch them either.

My house. I pay for the cable. I get to decide if a channel is available or not.

17. That's even worse. 
 MY HOUSE?!

Is political sedition that big a problem in your home?

19. I've blocked Fox for seven years
 and people around here loved that.

My house. My money for cable. I get to decide what channels are available and what channels are not.

28. My wife agrees
 and is actually thankful that I've finally turned off Rachel. Had been holding out. I watched Kieth maybe two nights a week for the past couple of months.

In fact, I daresay she's ecstatic at this change.

She thinks I should give her the PIN so she can change it and I cannot take MSNBC off the block. CNN would probably go on a block, too, if did that.

  Get a load of that, caver girls!   He won't give his wife the PIN??!!  That would happen precisely over my dead body.

60. I wish we could ALL get a husband who considers our home to be HIS house,
 with HIS cable, so HE can decide what a grown woman can watch. Sigh. That's dreamy!

55. He's "teaching" his household to be *critical* of *thinking*...
 And the sub-text of the lesson is: You Will Respect My Autorité!

59. Wow, your ignore list must be huge since you block differing opinions.
 I guess I just got added to it.

65. The poster brags that they put 5 people on ignore daily.

I apparently missed whatever "huge" thing happened on MSNBC last night.  Was there not enough slobbering love for 0bama?

[JohnnyReb]

It's my tax dollar...I earned it...so I get to decide how you spend your welfare check.

Hey, it works for me. No dope for you DUmmie.

Mod. to explain: DUmmie said, "My house. My money for cable. I get to decide what channels are available and what channels are not."

I wonder if bobbo has heard this attitude...after all she thinks a house and amenities should be provided for her free of charge.

I guess she is homeless or something.

Nah, you know Obama is ****ed when even knob-gobblers like Keef criticize Teh Wun.

[Karin]

Ralph, here are some quotes:

Olbermann: "It was a great speech if you were on another planet for the last 57 days."
Matthews compared Obama to Carter.
Olbermann: "Nothing specific at all was said."
Matthews: "No direction."
Howard Fineman: "He wasn't specific enough."
Olbermann: "I don't think he aimed low, I don't think he aimed at all. It's startling."
Howard Fineman: Obama should be acting like a "commander-in-chief."
Matthews: Ludicrous that he keeps saying [Secretary of Energy] Chu has a Nobel prize. "I'll barf if he does it one more time."

Insular, incestuous idiots.

Makes it easier to dispense with them once the time comes.

Thanks, Karin!

And conservative men are supposed to be overbearing tyrants? This man is an absolute pig! I can't imagine my husband doing anything like that. I'm absolutely stunned. So much for progressive. But then, maybe theirs is a communist household and he's the politburo.

WOW! what a bitchy thing to do, God forbid this persons family hears fair and balanced news.

That's a man who said that? I said what a bitchy thing to do because I thought it was a woman who said it, pettiness doesn't look well on men at all.

lol, what a pantload.

Someone just sent MSNBC out to the woodshed. That will teach them!
Oh well, while MSNBC has THE LOWEST RATINGS in the news industry, one less blathering moonbat with his pink panties in a wad and throwing his Birkenstocks at the TV won't matter much.

[debk]

Hmmm. We have a pin number to block channels? Can tell there aren't kids in my house.

I can't imagine either one of us even attempting to tell the other what they can or cannot watch on TV. Nor can I even imagine living in a household where someone had that much control over me.

What happened to the "we gotta be free" attitude of the flower child liberals? They obviously have grown up to be tyrants.

And they have the nerver to talk about us dastardly conservatives!

Hell, "Toots" controls the TV in the living room! She'd cut my hand off if I tried this BS!

I have my own TV. At least that way I can get a reprieve from SpongeBob and some of the other drek they consider to be cartoons nowadays! Schools out so I spend a lot of time in "my" room!

ETA:

This man is an absolute pig!

I've seen pics, you're probably real close to the truth, literally!

SPOT ON!

Just like those that say they are smart.

Man, I wish I could get away with blocking the various Lifetime channels. But if I did that I'd become fodder for a Lifetime script myself. The Perfect Deadly Wife's Addiction--Justified Homicide: The Lifetime Movie Murder.

Your wife is a pathetic doormat.   What a lucky lucky poor-excuse-for-a-man you are.

He said it twice, too.  And didn't defend himself when the chicks started squawking.  Can you imagine?  Control-freakery was one of the reasons for my divorce.

Godot, they already have a show like that (on WE?)  It's called "Snapped."  Stories of women who off their husbands and the like.  Maybe we'll see WeDidIt featured there someday. 

Allosaurs, you saw a picture?  Please describe.

Allosaurs, you saw a picture?  Please describe.

Just describing a run of the mill picture thread they occasionally post over at the DUmp. Some real winners, let me tell ya! Callin' 'em porkers is being kind and insulting to pigs!

[VelvetElvis]

WeDidIt is precisely the kind of lefty to illustrate the truth in the old saw; "Scratch a Liberal, Find a Fascist"

I'm won't surprised at all that those of his ilk would welcome Sharia Law into the USA, wittingly or not.

[dandi]

Mrs. WeDidIt should put a block on something else a little more "personal". See how long the block on the TV lasts.

 

[diesel driver]

I feel justified now for blocking the LOGO, PBS, Univision, and Current TV channels on my DirecTV....

Have not now nor will I ever consider blocking LMN or Lifetime channels, for I would incur the wrath of "She who must be obeyed".  She would also never consider blocking Speed, ESPN, Verses, The Military Channel, or The History Channel (I LOVE "Ice Road Truckers"!).  It's called "mutual respect"....

Besides, some of those Lifetime movies are rather entertaining....
