      Yah we need to spend more time cosidering that toxic thing that is a pregnant college basketball player.

      Next up, "Nose hair, inconvienience or tragedy!"

        I wonder if he would have the same attitude if a women's basketball player (or some other NCAA female SA) ended up pregnant outside of a marriage. I know the subject here is men's basketball (where pregnancy isn't as much an issue), but I thought I'd bring it up anyway

      Please stop airing Savage and Cunningham on MMFA/CF.  They aren't worth our time and energy.  These people are clearly speaking only to the elements of racists and sexist bigots who tune in only to confirm their own worst delusions.  You will never change a listerner's mind or bring these people to rational thought.  The rest of us don't care what they say. 

      Please concentrate on the mainstream thought and its inherent diffculties.  People who still have working synapses and might consider another perspective.

        I'm actually glad they do - it makes finding specific examples for college papers a little easier. If I need an illustration of an ad hominem or red herring, I don't have very far to look

      I wonder if Cunningham had the same response to Bristol Palin being pregnant? I highly doubt it.

        Naw, the radical right was too busy praising her for "keeping the baby".   Just imagine the racist outrage the radical right would have been spewing if Obama had a teen daughter in the same situtaion.

        That was COMPLETELY different - Levi the Dad played hockey.

      Extremists like Cunningham are the reason why the GOP will be a permanent minority.

        Cunningham isn't an extremist. He's in the mainstream of the GOP.

      Cunningham is a right-wing jerk, who is desperately trying to get as "popular" as Rush the Doper.
