GOP bill targets NY Times

The Hill ^ | 5.27.06

[napscoordinator]

shouldn't they find out where the leak is coming from, first?



The Senate and House are just finding things to do lately. I think they are having spring fever and can't wait for their month off in August. Poor guys are just so overworked. /sarc.

"We here on FR must push to flood the advertises who work with the times to take their business elsewhere"

Oh The slimes will pay for this alright.
In fact that are already paying for their years of lies, distortions, BDS and treason
Just ;]look at the layoffs, the woeful financial performance that have led to sharp falls in the stock price o The Slimes over the past few years.
That is money right out of the pocket of "Pinch" Salzburger and Bill Kelley.
But yes, it's an excellent idea to compile a list of advertisers in The Slimes to do everything we can to make them take their business elsewhere, including boycotting their products.

I don't see any difference between the two parties except for Iraq.

I get so sick and tired of people like you making this utterly stupid claim. The difference is HUGE and has been pointed out with great detail time and time again here. But I'm sure you'll counter with the same stupid comparison like this:

"I don't see much difference between a crocodile and a chicken. They both eat food, They both have legs. They both have eyes. They both have ..."

A resolution with NO TEETH. Why bother? I want the NYT OUT OF BUSINESS!!

Then go put them out of business. In the meantime, I'll take this resolution.

If they didn't put forth this resolution, you'd likely be hollering about that.

[Coop]

Ohh, how nice, how about some f***ing punishment????????

How about you take care of the "punishment" instead of throwing spears?

willfully communicates, delivers, transmits

Lawyers make out like it means that it is OK to PUBLISH, because that particular mode of communicating was left out of the list!

How about a citizen's lawsuit. The government can't go after the NYT without it looking like a constitutional issue. But a civil suit filed by citizens? Don't we, the people, have a say? Why not say it in court?

The NYT has acted irresponsibly and as a result of their actions, I feel less safe and emotionally and psychologically traumatized by the NYT's aiding and abetting the terrorists who want to kill me. I seek monetary damages.

[txoilman]

It will be interesting to see how many Democrats vote against this resolution!

[notigar]

I wouldn't call a house resolution a "get."

The NY TIMES and Bill Keller are mocked unmercifully here -- http://cgi.ebay.com/Osama-thank-you-card-sent-to-treasonous-NEW-YORK-TIMES_W0QQitemZ220002307068QQihZ012QQcategoryZ367QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Hey.... we are on the same team here. I'll take the resolution too but I'd like to see more, wouldn't you?

"The difference (between the parties) is HUGE"

Yeah, real 'huge'. Bush has yet to veto any bad legislation that crossed his desk, and is the biggest spending President in U.S. history. In the true form of a liberal, he has run up our national debt to new highs and has overseen the biggest trade deficits in history. He is a globalist, a multi-culturalist who is working overtime trying to open up America to the world by fighting for the illegal aliens inundating our country, and for a global confederation of mutually enmeshed economies. Borders? They don't exist in Bush's mind.

Never forget, whoever you are, that our country is falling apart from within under the 'leadership' and supervision of a Republican dominated government. Like I said previously, I am seeing less and less difference between the two parties than ever before. The Democrats would push us over the cliff on a greased slide, the Republicans would do it without the grease, a little slower.

[phillyfanatic]

Start with two resolutions: one in the House and one in the Senate. Make the lefty Dems defend the Times. Put them on the defensive. Then ask the Times to give Americans(the public's right to know) who the leakers are! Put the Left on the Defensive and it is an educational effort for most of the American public who don't get their news from the Alternative Media!

Thank you, thank you for posting this. I had looked and looked but had failed to find it due to the erroneous time frame. I felt it was important, in the context of the current offense of the NYT, that these duplicitous remarks remain an important part of the debate. Thanks again.

[Just A Nobody]

You are welcome!

I felt it was important, in the context of the current offense of the NYT...

Absolutely!!!

[singfreedom]

I'm going to chalk that up to "venting" in the heat of anger inspired by the actions of the anti-American NYSlimes.

Indeed, the differences are not only substantial, but to many to list on this bandwidth.

[singfreedom]

Now, I REALLY like that idea!! Excellent! Do we have a case? Any lawyer types out there that can tell us if we "have a legal leg to stand on"?

"The only sound the New York Slimes pays attention to is that of crisp green bills crinkling together. We need to hit them in their pocketbook. We need a mass boycott and letter-writing campaign to their biggest advertiser, whomever that might be. I did some googling and couldn't find an answer to that, but did find out that Proctor & Gamble is apparently the country's biggest advertiser in general. Who's up for a boycott with me???"

As I get this, you make a general statement, then a supposition, then call for a boycott on an inferred target, Procter & Gamble. You sure as Hillary sound like a liberal.

Perhaps the leaker is well known.....................as was his/her motives????????????????
