        For Laura Ingraham it's ok if you call them "Homies"
        Because her Daughter qualifies as one & the last thing Laura wants to be is a Phony.
        So Call Laura's Daughter a "Homie" hey, as long as she Washes them Dishes it's all good.
        Blacks & Hispanics are America's future when they're not Caged in Laura's Kitchen or an Urban Hood.

        Speak truth to power.

        Great point! That cross is there on purpose. Faux viewers are deceived into believing what she says because they think she believes in God.

          Ingraham was doing an MSNBC show called "Watch it" in '99 when Columbine happened. Discussing the matter, Ingraham became aggravated when someone mentioned counseling for survivors of the tragedy because, according to her, prayer would be so much more effective.

          I don't think that cross is a pretension of religious fervor. I do think it's a deliberately conspicuous violation of the admonition about public displays.

      Kids today!

      Back in my day, we didn't have Twitter or texting, we relied on hand bills and leaflets and word of mouth, when we stormed the Bastille!

      And stole everything that wasn't nailed down or weighed more than fifty pounds.

As far as YOU can tell doesnt mean much I mean after all there is that mental retardation issue you are so sensative about. I dont know everything I didnt know flash mobs included violent mobs. I thought it described those put together events that were like performace art only. It isnt the only thing I didnt or dont know. Now comparing to YOU I am Stephen Hawking.

                        I'm just putting my 2 cents in here but I don't think "homie" has any racial overtones, and I do think the idea of organized "mobs" targeting specific locations is something law enforcement should concern themselves with. Simply because it has happened and in all likelihood will keep happening.

                      I couldn't figure out exactly what the data on that web page was supposed to mean, but that came to mind, that glenn beck's show is being cancelled, not MMFA's.

                      MMFA has outlasted tucker carlson, lou dobbs (on CNN), that skeleton guy don imus (on MSNBC), and in general George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, and donald trump and Sarah Palin and newt gingrich...

                      And glenn beck.

                      That's a long list of failures, it seems like MMFA has survived them all, watched them all crash and burn.

                      If the data from that web site was supposed to mean MMFA doesn't have as many visitors as YouTube or Google or whoever, or even doesn't have as many as they used to, that's irrelevant to their mission, they're not aimed at the general public, they aim (I believe) at a more narrow politically active demographic, and a professional demographic too (media and political professionals), in which case the interest in their site would be driven by political and media events, which vary greatly over even a short period.

                        Another MMFAer jumping into the fray and comparing a website to tv hosts... nonsensical!

                        3 months is not a short period in a 24/7 news cycle.

                        MMFA is visited more frequently by over 65 males with no children and a college education...that doesn't match the demographics you just so eloquently described.

                          I visit this web site regularly, and have never once been asked my age or asked how many children I have or my level of formal education, or ever answered any questions or volunteered that information online, so how could anyone pretend to know those things?

                              I guess so, and I also guess I won't be chasing the guy's links all over the internet, if he can't answer a direct question, but instead posts links to that site that yes, I think the guy is maybe just ginning up web traffic for them, who cares about that...

                              And I'd still like to know how anyone, that website or even this guy posting, thinks they know that kind of information about me, just from me logging onto this site from a computer, any computer.

                  Actually he might, in the last two years since Glenn Beck has been on the air it's become sort of a meme with Conservatives who listen to him that ratings are all that matter. Actually it's been that way since Fox News' ratings went up and everyone else's went down

          I love how an unscientific website traffic ranking is somehow proof of... something. Somehow.

          Anyone every equating popularity with quality should be pre-banned from all open forums as a precautionary measure. Besides, if FOX people really want to whine that popularity = quality and trustworthiness, then they need a reminder that Wikipedia gets far more traffic than FOX News or FOX Nation (or any news site)... so clearly that's a better source of information! So what if it's not even a news source? FOX Nation isn't, either, so I figure it's even.

          of this failing liberal cesspool of hatred where words like retard are acceptable.
          He didn't use the word "retard". He used the word "retarded".

          It has an actual meaning. Look it up.

          A couple of things . . . I actually do my own research on REAL news sites. MMFA isn't a news site. I just post here to comment on the stupidity of people who name themselves after fictional comic book heroes and people who pretend to be members of the news media who simply spew scripted garbage.

      Well, I don't know that the particular mob they were discussing was violent or not. However, young criminals are an old problem and using their phones and computers to coordinate criminal activities isn't really that original either. Back when phones were a fairly new technology they used to use the term; "drop a dime" on so and so. It was a reference to "dropping a dime" in a pay phone to order the assassination of someone.

        Are you sure? As far as I remember, every time I've ever seen that reference the context was very clearly "snitching". Out of the thousands of movies that I've seen I don't ever recall the "assassination" meaning, and that seems odd.
