Oh…pay no attention to Nick he’s just rolled out of bed with his blow up Barry, it wasn’t what he thought it would be.

Pretty clever (even the rickroll), however if you think Limbaugh, Beck, Coulter and Hannity aren't mainstream you still have the wool over your eyes. Even Alex Jones is pretty mainstream. Problem is the media is so corporate now. Limbaugh and the others are largely phonies like O'reilly clearly is.
Great observations. Traditional media has failed America. They have placed ideology and vain attempts at persuasion over simply reporting the news. They are fooling no one and simply can not be trusted.
If you mean the Rickrolling, perhaps. Otherwise, no.
(Now I've got that song stuck in my head. Curse you, Andrew Klavan!!!! CUUUUUURRRRRRSE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!)

The socialists have moved "acceptable" way too far to the left in the last 25 years in the "inoftainment" space…..its time to move it back to where the Amercian people say it should be and not where Immelt, Soros and Moore want it for their purposes……..
i bet the administration gets testy when a mirror is held up to it. wait, can they even see their reflection?!

Are you kidding me…EVERYONE knows Rush Limbaugh and his ilk are morans….what educated person would listen or even pay attention to this craziness?? That is the main reason why I can no longer call myself a republican, I am exhused of the loud mouth idiots that give this party such a bad name. Keep at it…we will never see the white house again if this maddness of ranting continues.
Rayvet - November 21st, 2009 at 4:42 pm
It not moran you moron. Crawl back under your rock. You conservative wannabes still think the right should be civil and play nice with the libs/socialists/dims because you can't accept the fact that you must fight fire with fire. Your suggestion that these folks are crazy or that they shouldn't be "loud mouthed" just goes to show you don't know how to change tactics in order to get back what we've lost. And BTW, most folks on the right don't call themselves Republican's anymore….it's conservative.
Exactly! We need some cool-headed moderate to ride in and win the presidency away from the Democratic party. Hey! John McCain's a "cool-headed moderate"–if we had the brains to nominate a man like that, we'd win the presidency hands down no questions asked!
….ahem

those that agree with this will, and, those that don't, won't. party braindead for far to long. glad to be an indepenent for 40 years
that's funny. If you're a Republican then Obama is a limited government capitalist, and was born in America!
Most any Republican will cream Barry Hussein come 2012, anybody!
Obama's recession is dragging o, he's losing "his right war" in Afganistan, people are against socialized medicine 50% to 38 % and ramming it through anyway…0BAMA IS A FAILURE!
Trolls like you who say "I was once a Republican, but not anymore" — other than the fact that you should be grateful you weren't aborted at birth — ought to be abundantly grateful that Republicans uphold your right to be born as well as your right to not only be a stupid troll but your right to prove it by your posts.
silly moran! When did you ever call yourself a Republican? Go back to your hazy dream world where Keith Olberman is King and Chris Matthews is Princess and Obama's toilet paper isn't emblazoned with the words We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
You know, the document that gives you the freedom to verbally display your ignorance to the world.
reviewing 4:03 to 4:07 of this film I'd say no. BUT – what an awesome way with words! If you haven't seen "Find God in 60 Days" you're missing win of epic proportions!
I have not read this by Crichton but I know I have enjoyed some of his books in the past and sounds as if this too will be a good novel. Thanks for the recommendation. And I agree with you about some fellow Americans still trusting traditional media. They have abused the public trust like some politicians. This stuff must come to an end.

'today' as in, 'for the last 40 years' since their ideology was completely debunked and proven to be a fraud?
They don't argue ideas, they can't afford the intellectual honesty.
Interesting – there is a new conservative movement, and the sooner it takes down the eastern liberal mainstream media establishment the better. I counted less than 5,000 so called journalists, editors, newscasters etc. who hold the rest of the country hostage to their liberal ideas – these 5,000 are responsible for the mess we are in today. That and BushII – even though I hated to hear leftist and Dems criticize the guy, his utter failure to respond and to support conservative ideals are what got us to where we are today. Someday conservatives will have to have an open and honest discussion about Bush II (impossible with Democrats around). That will come after OBAMA an his fellow Democrats are voted out of office. But it has to be done.
Maybe you don't like the presentation, but can you dispute the facts? Do you really think the MSM is trying their best to report unbiased facts, or have they just turned into a leftist propaganda tool. It takes alot of shouting to be heard against the MSM white noise. You're either a conservative who supports the constitution or not. The libs want us to run off a cliff full speed. Do you think the outcome will be better if we moderately walk off the edge?
In re: "The Main Stream Media"….that is all the dying newspapers, magazines and TV networks….ALL take their queues from the homosexual dominated ny times.
See…there ain't too many conservative media voices that can identify the loony-left media core for the homosexual degenerates that they are for fear that that other cesspool of homosexual degenerates at the aclu will sue them for defamation. But the truth remains the truth, and the truth is under siege like never before.
The good news? The Manhattan D.A. just raided the circulation offices of the ny times, the ny post, the ny daily news and "el diario". Apparently they have been inflating the circulation numbers to their advertisers, and the advertisers are getting sore because they're tired of being robbed.
So hang in there my Conservative Brothers and Sisters….AND start running for office yourselves, and start your own news services like Breitbart and Drudge and others.
Nailed it. Thanks Andrew for exposing the REAL 'agenda' drones. THEY would have had great disdain for our Founding Fathers too! Crazy times. Today, the foundation of the liberal movement is COWARDICE. LIBERALS ARE FOR EVERYTHING BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T THE SPINE TO STAND UP AGAINST ANYTHING.
Raids might mean something is amiss, but remember that just because you are investigated or raided shouldn't automatically mean you are guilty. There is such a thing as due process.
A-hem….The Manhattan DA rarely conducts raids without a fairly certain basis that serious wrong-doing has occurred. The boys and girls there are cutting their teeth and their supervisors are among the best prosecutors in the country. Something is "amiss", and fear not, they'll get their due process.
That was awesome. "We are so out of bad things to say about these guys that we're going to rick-roll you so you'll forget that the MSM's arguments against them lack substance!"
How dare this oppressive brute try to show the mainstream media in a bad light. Current, first rule of journalism, as long as your intentions are good, facts and reality doesn’t not matter in reporting on or “making up” a story.
If you follow a movie critic on Twitter, chances are you follow him because you admire his ability to critique the many offerings of Hollywood. Unfortunately, if you follow Roger Ebert, you also get endless tirades on greedy corporate fatcats, "nutjob Teabaggers," and how dumb Sarah Palin is. Ebert is,...

RIGHT BACK AT YOU, NICK!
Oh yeah, tell your mom that you wrote a naughty word on the computer. She'll wash your mouth out with soap!
Great commentary Andrew!
Let's not forget the good Dr. Savage, who's been banned from entering Britain because they're too scared of the truth he speaks.
And you've got one bad case of sour grapes.
At least you had the good taste to use "sir", asshat.
Wow! I'm convinced now, Nick (otherwise known as gutless coward troll Nick) just called Andrew an ass hole, so Andrew must be full of it.
Great work Andrew! Pointing out the facts can cause severe damage to the witless left, keep it up!
Oh…pay no attention to Nick he’s just rolled out of bed with his blow up Barry, it wasn’t what he thought it would be.
Pretty clever (even the rickroll), however if you think Limbaugh, Beck, Coulter and Hannity aren't mainstream you still have the wool over your eyes. Even Alex Jones is pretty mainstream. Problem is the media is so corporate now. Limbaugh and the others are largely phonies like O'reilly clearly is.
Brilliant!
That was slick. Summed up it well.
And closed with an epic Rickroll.
What is it with liberals?
Every blog I've been to today, you are just lashing out with hatred and ad hominem instead of challening the person's ideas.
It's almost like you have no ideas….
funny stuff
Great observations. Traditional media has failed America. They have placed ideology and vain attempts at persuasion over simply reporting the news. They are fooling no one and simply can not be trusted.
unfortunately they are still fooling some.
I suggest EVERYONE in America read "State of Fear" by Michael Crichton, he lays out a damning case against the government and the media collusion.
Attacking the persons instead of the ideas. Congrats! You're a Leftist!
You got one thing right. The media is corrupt.
"State of Fear" is a good book.
Andrew. Excellent!
Liberals get owned and rickroll'd all in one video. I don't think it gets much better than that.
wow.
the rickroll was on the msm, right?
If you mean the Rickrolling, perhaps. Otherwise, no.
(Now I've got that song stuck in my head. Curse you, Andrew Klavan!!!! CUUUUUURRRRRRSE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!)

Effing Brilliant!
Yo Fox News, Hire Andrew to replace Shep!
I love me some Andrew Klavan! He is the man.
I like Andrew, but I like Shep too.
Did Andrew just "Rick Roll" us at the end of that brilliant piece?
Yes, yes he did.
Excellent way to point out the obvious…loved it!!!
Excellent, excellent! And yes.. we have been rickrolled.. lol.. who gives, it was brilliant.
Very good.
Nick;
Brilliant retort. Did he strike a nerve? How 'bout i speak in terms you can understand just for grins…………know you are but what am I?
Top that!
i bet the administration gets testy when a mirror is held up to it. wait, can they even see their reflection?!

EVERYONE KNOWS?
why are all these trolls with greyed out Identifications? as if they were…plants or something.
great job Andrew… THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT A PJTV MEMBERSHIP!!!!
GoodieTwoShoes,
Have any supporting evidence of your assertions?
Exactly! We need some cool-headed moderate to ride in and win the presidency away from the Democratic party. Hey! John McCain's a "cool-headed moderate"–if we had the brains to nominate a man like that, we'd win the presidency hands down no questions asked!

nah, and they run screaming from crosses, wooden spikes and Holy water!
I accidently gave you a minus -1 SORRY, I meant it for the moron that is supposedly a "Republican" rsmith.
You can knock me down one to even it up!
rs, you arent a republican, a conservative, probably havent voted as an adult either
Thanks, I had my share of "I was once a Republican but not any more" astroturfing trolls last summer.
Excellent. Sums it up. So Mr. Klavan in addition to being a writer, has a great voice and now we learn he has comic timing. What´s next, dance?
Unspeakably evil of him.
Thank you, Andrew, you made me laugh out loud!
rsmith got Rick-Rolled and can't handle it! I lol'd!
There is nothing Main Stream about today's media!
TonyTwoShoes, your mom to drive you to the mall — or where ever other humans go — so you can look someone to be your friend?
Trolls like you who say "I was once a Republican, but not anymore" — other than the fact that you should be grateful you weren't aborted at birth — ought to be abundantly grateful that Republicans uphold your right to be born as well as your right to not only be a stupid troll but your right to prove it by your posts.
Klavan! You're killin' me!
Not fair…that such a brilliant editorialist is also so damned funny. But… Life's not fair, I suppose… damn it.
silly moran! When did you ever call yourself a Republican? Go back to your hazy dream world where Keith Olberman is King and Chris Matthews is Princess and Obama's toilet paper isn't emblazoned with the words We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Does anyone know of Obama is still sniffing school yard bicycle seats?

Why dwell on the past. The only discussion we need to have is that we don't repeat his mistakes.

Thanks, I´ll check it out.
I think he moves with grace. Of course, that was just a preview… we need more evidence.
