Well the Sacbee does not list the race of any criminals any more so I guess maybe because they would been required to in this case they decided not to cover it.

Anyone know of any other papers around the country who are like the Sacbee and will not print the race of criminals when doing a description of them?

Oh, com’n, Dersu – don’t you know that the only way to reach the high-tech crowd is to wear a rotating bowtie and flashing red nose whilst being berated by the Muppets? How 20th century!! How unhip!!!

I could’ve used the Vodkapundit’s extensive liquor cabinet; that was a(nother) pitiful performance by the presstitutes.

“presstitutes” Now that’s a good one! Right up there with “fauxtography.”

However, they did have a great deal of biased questions and ones aimed specifically at ‘Bush Bashing’. Multiple questions were predicated by first saying ‘The Bush Administrations policy for such and such is this. Do you think that is right or wrong?’ As if all republicans are clones of George W Bush. Have they realized yet that Bush is not running in ‘08? I also enjoyed how the moderators tried to frame the debate of upgrading our bridges and other infrastructure into the fact that we must raise taxes in order to fund the upgrades. In other words: ‘You must raise taxes in order to save lives, Right?’ Oh, by the way… Its the states responsibility to upkeep their infrastructure, not the federal government’s! (good grief)

It was a good debate none the less, but it think it was mainly b/c they gave them more time to speak and didn’t treat it like the interview portion of the Miss America contest.

What was worse was my local affiliate (WISN-Milwaukee) delaying things an hour.

We need to get mobilized. The teens from Miami who are trying to lobby for amnesty for their 2 illegal immigrant classmates are generating more and more attention–the article on Time.com

to interviews on Fox News and CNN (supposedly being taped today). In addition to the numerous articles in the Miami Herald. This isn’t about these two kids anymore; they are trying to make the DREAM Act the larger issue.

We killed the shamnesty bill earlier this summer and we need to kill this bill HR 3231 and the momentum accompanying it for the DREAM Act as well.

ajmontana- yer right about that. you live in medialand…lol. The Bay Area is quite a paradox when it comes to media. An affluent trend-setting, techno-capital with horse and buggy type local reportage. (Oh let’s go to the carney in lower San Jose and “see what’s going on!” Surprise! Lots-o-Mexicans!)

The catfish sandwiches at the Your Black Muslim Bakery were legendary at one time. That was when the Delta wasn’t so polluted. You could drop your hook and pull a big pounder up.

Now all the water is getting bled off to the Central Valley and LA LA land down south.

End of an era. Funny how criminals can give us some of our fondest memories, ennit?

aj- were you up so early because the Barry homer was still coursing through your veins? (BMFG)

I am tired of the GOP submitting to the MSM in how the debates are presented.

Why did they agree to such a thing?

Hardly a prime time debate!

Oh, i dunno, it’s August. This is vacation month. The primary is 6 months away. Many people with households have back-to-school coming up in September after vacation.

Methinks the Petraeus report in September is going to bring some of the inattentive back into Earth’s atmosphere re candidates- because it will be getting a lot of air time.

I also think there is a savvy part of the electorate that knows most of this early stuff is fluff on both sides- although on Powerline yesterday a good piece was done on Giuliani building his foreign policy brain trust and healthcare platform.

In addition, some of these debates obviously are scaled to give newbie candidates some experience in that type of venue for “debating”.

Things are so staged on these debates. I think the public would tune in more if they weren’t going to be fed the wonkish b.s. on who won and who lost crap from the networks- and got more beef.

My 2 cents. Waiting for my deli breakfast to arrive!

I didnt know it was on this a.m. either, been up since 3am pdt. and just for a couple of soundbites on FOX thats all I heard about it.

Same goes with the Bakery Bear, not any coverage down here in So. Cal. I think we get faster and better coverage here anyway to tell ya the truth.

The warrants stemmed from an investigation that began in May after a case involving kidnapping, robbery and torture in east Oakland

Wow, it seems that bakery was more like a little shop of horrors.
