christopher Martin Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Now that's something that I agree with you upon. :P Sarah Palin and her Tea Party wackjobs is really scary shit. And the fact that such a group is trying to form in Canada...:worried2: Yeh glad we agree :) just so you know, I wanted Obama to win, Im not right wing or anything, the republicans are nothing like the current Conservatives in the UK. I watched CBS news last night tho, Its a shame that public favour seems to be down a little for Obama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Conservatives are nothing like the Republicans in the US (thank God!) . An independent studies of parties and their policies rated them on how left/ right wing they are (back in 2009 I think) based on policies like taxation, abortion, gun control, gay rights, etc. In it, the UK Conservatives were placed to the left of the US Democrats (a party Chris has been known to support). It also does not suprise me that David Cameron has gone into partnership with the Liberal party here. This would never happen in the US. Over the last 20 years, the Republicans have become more and more right wing in the US, whilst the Coservatives more and more left wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Live Life Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Agreed, along with Bill O'reilly and the utterly bias FOX News. There is bias in all media. What is worrying about Rupert Murdoch though is the power he appears to be exerting over the UK Parliament in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipoffools Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I think Chris should fight back, if his music is being used where he doesn't want it to. I seem to remember an artist suing a political candidate, for using their songs in his ad. And, they won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has too much power for one man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Osaka Sun Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 There is bias in all media. This is true, however members of the media industry are obliged to keep their data as unbiased and fair as possible. I'm taking Journalism as my university major, and it's literally a golden rule. It really makes me wonder, then, why Fox News still exists after spewing blatant lies, hate, intolerance, hypocrisy and fear-mongering for decades. I love their excuse - to try and avoid "political correctness." I feel so embarassed for being part-American sometimes. :facepalm: Is it that bad in the UK?

nouratan Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 i may hate David Cameron coz he made fun of my country and forgot abt the problems we Pakistanis face coz of west's war on terror (or rather war of terror) but i think Britain needs a leader who is straight talking and tough like him.

What did Cameron say? I heard he said that Pakistan should be tougher on extremists but I do not recall him "making fun"?? It is fantasically ignorant to say that the west are responsible for a war of terror, Sadam Hussain is responsible along with the Taliban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, incase you are not aware, when he went to Pakistan he spoke of a possible new special relationship, like the one with America but with Pakistan, I thought this was great news. Was this well known in Pakistan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
