The world will not stop spinning if we don’t see 22 hours coverage of the rescue capsule mechanism being pumped up and down

But if will for sure stop spinning if we miss Sean Hannity throwing a football or Bill O'Reilly being a pompous ass, It'll be especially tragic if we miss the late night reruns.

GET A LIFE you silly juveniles ...

Right back at you. Go watch a sunset or something.

Somehow you left Kevin Bacon out of your long and silly six degree thing. Isn’t that against the rules of the game?

I think it’s too much. I tuned in for the regular programming, and it’s wall to wall coverage of this.

I know it’s important to get these guys out, but does the coverage have to be CONSTANT? Occasional updates would have been more than sufficient, IMO.

Because we did this. Americans drilled the rescue hole and NASA help balanced the health issues for the miners. This is our victory.

Actually. The coverage has been quite useful. Tonight, I taught my 8 yr old to pray on her knees for people she’s never met, never will, and why it’s important to do so. Not only was she receptive, but enthusiastic to fell there was something she could do to help others.

I am proud of that, and proud of her.

Michelle Malkin is tweeting every two seconds over this event as if it was the first moon landing.

Everybody wants to see what’s going to happen when the miner with the wife and mistress gets hauled out.

Probably going to need an emergency medivac.

This is huge news. It's being covered that way.

What's your problem?

I agree. Great story, but I didn’t need an entire night of it and have all the shows preempted. Isn’t it nice, all the insults and sarcasm you got here, just for posting your opinion? Lots of nice people here, but a large majority are surly wiseasses. This thread is a perfect example. I thought we were all on the same side, fighting the wiseass liberals.

I come here basically to find news, but I belong to a very nice online political community; a group of Independents, Republicans and Conservatives who treat each other with respect. You’d never see a thread like this. Very cliquey here too, but I don’t care about that. Like I said, I have an online political family elsewhere.

It is a first....if not as important as the moon landing.

Did you complain about the first moon landing coverage?

The problem is the American public is stupid. I mean really stupid.

I appreciate your critique of all 300 million of us stupid people!

I would comment further, but I don't have a clue in my little pea brain!

Thanks for enlightening me on my stupidity, I really needed that!

Meanwhile, foreign idiots like you continue to critisize America for what is bad about her instead of praising her for being the last bastion of freedom and common-sense in the whole civilized world!

Hey, how's that Hope and Change working out for you where you live?

You more free than an American?

Pay less taxes?

How's the immigrant situation, acclimating to those lovely muslims?

YOU don't have a clue in your little socialist pea brain!

Have a nice day!

Well according to lmr in #40, you are just teaching her to care about stupid things like the miracle of life, our shared humanity, ingenuity, compassion and all that other crap, when there's American politics to worry about. What kind of parent are you?

I really didn’t care if they lived or died. I’m indifferent to it.

I would hate to be you. Seriously. You're pathetic!

It’s only his 517th anti cable TV post today. Do you think that’s overkill?
