Just think, kids born 2 years ago will see their little baby books in a few years and go 'wow daddy, was gas really $2.10 a gallon'

Or "What was a car?" I can remember 19 cents a gallon during the time the larger companies drove the "Gomers and Goobers" out of biz in Dayton, Ohio in the late 60s.

That makes no sense, how can you make that determination when all it showed was media outlets. It does prove the majoriyt of major media is sided to the democrats.

There are liars, damn liars, and then there are statisticians. The statisticians are the ones that put together lists like this.

Trust me--dealing with #'s every single day, you can look at any ratio or any sample from a certain collection of data and make things look one way, when reality and common sense tells you something different altogether.

1) We don't know the source.

2) It's a random set of dollars out of a certain pool of contributions--may not have all information available.

Those two things make the data in that "list" and in this thread useless, and a pretty transparent sophomoric shot at the Dems--just like the New Yorker cover. Fodder that means less than nothing.

Oh i know its fodder and that the data is iffy at best, which is why I turned it around

And how I could get that, since I was asked

If you show that the Dems are giving all this money to the press, and we know that the Republicans have money and aren't giving it to the press, then they aren't 'giving' as much money away, which means they are keeping the money [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif[/img]

Its as logical as the whole thing was lol
