- OfNumbers, on 08/24/2008, -1/+226Way to act like crack addicts waiting for a fix.
- inactive, on 08/24/2008, -2/+91anyone else as drunk as i am?
- OptionalPirate, on 08/24/2008, -2/+83Dugg, because my brother freaked out at his 3 hour-late text message.
- Subiejon, on 08/24/2008, -1/+77Does CNN really need to plug blackberry in every news cast?
- zulfy26, on 08/24/2008, -1/+73My comment is too far down for any sizable amount of people to see it then digg it, so nothing witty from me today.
- PainToad, on 08/24/2008, -5/+76Is VP the running mate? Sorry to be ignorant but you're election process is so complicated.
- MasterSref, on 08/24/2008, -4/+57Yes.
And really, the only purpose the VP serves is to "balance the ticket" during the election anyway. - Nateon, on 08/24/2008, -0/+47yes
- SillyDigger, on 08/24/2008, -3/+42This is what passes for news in America these days?
- smackjack, on 08/24/2008, -5/+41Now the folks at CNN are going to get texts every two weeks begging for money.
- Arteen, on 08/24/2008, -3/+38That Obama, he's such a tease. Never texted me back.
- skippyoh, on 08/24/2008, -0/+33I'm going to take a shot for every digg you get. Would anyone care to join my little game?
- estvir, on 08/24/2008, -1/+34This is one of their higher quality news stories, actually.
- PhilLesh69, on 08/24/2008, -2/+34They weren't acting like crack addicts. They were stringing their viewers along, making them think that there was going to be an announcement any minute now. Because they sell ads, and they need viewers.
Fox News was doing it, too.
What's funny is that the local DC NBC station had immediately reported that the Obama campaign was going to text the VP selection after midnight, and then announce the selection publicly early saturday morning, and yet both Fox and CNN kept trying to string people along all day. - yyymilitia, on 08/24/2008, -5/+28That's what she said
- PhilLesh69, on 08/24/2008, -2/+24But it is.
The beauty of Fox News is that they are the colbert report, without being sarcastic about it. - baldwin90, on 08/24/2008, -3/+21OBAMA VP DRAMA!!
- wilhoitm, on 08/24/2008, -1/+17They sent the text message at 3AM so Hillary would be sleep!
- dazparkour, on 08/24/2008, -0/+16No, but I'm digging him up - hope you get that kidney. I'm also praying to several deities that this is one of those threads that get submitted to the front page as a story, getting thousands of diggs.
You better hope it's not. - ligyron, on 08/24/2008, -1/+15Are you suggesting that the further down a comment is, the less people will read it?
- slapded, on 08/24/2008, -0/+13and to hide in bunkers with his thumb up his as when real ***** happens
- waxenpi, on 08/24/2008, -0/+12getting there
- jumbalia, on 08/24/2008, -0/+11God forbid they should report on any other news. I mean it's not like there's really anything else going on in the world right now anyways...
- SkinnerBox, on 08/24/2008, -0/+11No, fewer people...
- PhilLesh69, on 08/24/2008, -1/+12I think you've confused Ariana with Anne Coulter.
Ariana is just a shriveled up old greek or italian or whatever hag.
Anne Coulter is a hot chick that all the neocon supporters get hard ons over, but who has a ***** adam's apple. - PBCliberal, on 08/24/2008, -1/+12"We're the gatekeepers," huffed mainstream media. "We're permanent fixtures on the guest list. We don't like it one bit when we're kept behind the velvet rope like the huddled masses!"
Was that my blackberry? - PhilLesh69, on 08/24/2008, -1/+11but everyone knows that a guy with "hussein" as his middle name loves to eat babies.
All of our enemies eat babies. They are not human, so we hate them. And we hate them since they are not human. And they are not human because we hate them for not being human, and they have funny middle names, and they eat babies. And they eat babies because they have funny middle names.
They also have darker skin than us.
Come on, guys! This is us against them! - sockpuppets, on 08/24/2008, -9/+19Skeet skeet skeet skeet LIEBERMAN!!!
Best Obamagasm I've had yet! - PhilLesh69, on 08/24/2008, -2/+12No. The only thing that passes for news is if Miley Cyrus is pregnant, or if Paris forgot to wear her undies last night.
- crazycarlmar, on 08/24/2008, -4/+14Far left? You watch O'Reilly don't you? You know if you choose to be ignorant it's really your own fault.
- jlakser49, on 08/24/2008, -0/+10dugg for "running around like a Wolf Blitzer with his head cut off "
classic - ligyron, on 08/24/2008, -0/+10Wow, want a cookie?
- cap11235, on 08/24/2008, -1/+11yesuyers. iu ay aasm!
- SkinnerBox, on 08/24/2008, -0/+9So after 51 shots I'm assuming we wont be hearing from Skippyoh anymore.
- PhilLesh69, on 08/24/2008, -2/+11It was only Fox and CNN that tried to use this "upcoming announcement" crap to retain viewers, to string people along all day.
The local NBC affilliate in DC had already announced that the plan was to text to supporters after midnight, and then announce publicly early saturday morning. Even the national networks, ABC, CBS and NBC said the same.
It was just the 24 hour news channels that were trying to use it to raise their viewer numbers. - inactive, on 08/24/2008, -0/+9I wish my gf could say that, I release too soon.
- whatthefu, on 08/24/2008, -1/+9Good example of one of the greatest shortcomings of cable news.
- flashback99, on 08/24/2008, -1/+9Anne Coulter? That anti-semetic homophobic skank-ho who flashes her pants at he old republicans? I swear she is related to the "god hates fags" west-bro baptist church *****.
- macfan93, on 08/24/2008, -0/+6Not true. The vp offers advice, and occasionally, a different point of view to the president when he makes decisions.
- smackjack, on 08/24/2008, -1/+7It would do no good because Obama made it clear he would hold a rally with his running mate on Saturday.
- 0Xonox0, on 08/24/2008, -0/+6He could have held the rally except with a bag over Biden's face to hide his identity.
- CraigReed, on 08/24/2008, -1/+7Hannity will say anything to make Obama look bad, earlier this week they where accusing him of wanting to kill babies.
- inactive, on 08/24/2008, -1/+7that was so like omigod 5 minutes ago old man, ewwww
- yensed, on 08/24/2008, -3/+9So that was the true reason behind his Text Announcement scheme... Pure Entertainment.
- IndigoMoss, on 08/24/2008, -2/+8Balancing the ticket buddy He picked someone who is perceived to have "experience". I think McCain's VP choice is going to be more important, given his age and whatnot.
- danthepiercer, on 08/24/2008, -3/+9wow...what a douchebag.
perhaps you'll take the time to point out that 'douchebag' should really be spelled 'douche bag'. - dafragsta, on 08/24/2008, -0/+6Holy *****. Mainstream media failure at it's best. You'd think this ***** was from a movie. I think I'd like to punch each one of those individuals in the face for being so ***** retarded.
- Harelin, on 08/24/2008, -1/+7They are like the Colbert Report and the joke is still on a whole lot of people...
- JohnnyMarr, on 08/24/2008, -1/+6I wish...
- zippe, on 08/24/2008, -0/+5i never even GOT mine!
