      Good. Serves these liberal rags right for reporting biased news. I heard New York Times is going to be next- they are the worst. Do yourself a favor and read The Wallstreet Journal or NY Post- some of the few acceptable papers to get real news from.

      Noooo . . . what am I going to do without the sunday ads from the Trib?!

      Hey Stupid, you Perez, read the whole story. What a slim ball you are. Shut for fag mouth, especially when you think you know something. You do know about lubes, so talk about that.

      We should bail out the newspapers too! Looks like Obama did well for his own states business.
