I want to close my Citi Dividends World Mastercard and open a Chase Sapphire. The thinking is to keep 1 Visa, 1 MC, and 1 Amex while spreading my accounts around through different banks. Which option would be better?
1. Close the Dividends World Mastercard before I apply for the Chase Sapphire and see if they will transfer my CL to my Forward or
2. Open the Chase Sapphire and then close the Citi Dividends World Mastercard and see if they will transfer the CL then
The thinking is that a higher CL on the Forward will lead to a higher initial CL on the Sapphire. On the other hand, it might look better to have 2 open revolving lines (in addition to my Amex charge) than 1. In the end, I will be happy as long as the Sapphire reports a CL, but it would be nice to get a higher CL from the start. After my recent CL increase on the Forward, I'm still only at 18% of my salary. One big spend and my utilization will be trashed if I don't pay before the statement cuts.
Thanks in advance.

Honestly I don't know if that straight follows anymore. I think the old common wisdom was that Chase matched one's current limits, but the wave of both Freedom and Sapphire approvals in the past few months speaks differently where they're sometimes much higher than prior limits comparitively.
3 tradelines revolving tradelines is a better place to be than 2, and unless you aren't actively using one of the Citi cards or the Sapphire replaces it, I wouldn't bother closing it yet. For that matter I'd rather have 4-5 instead of three since I suspect that's closer towards the mythical average, but it probably doesn't make too much difference FICO wise.... diminishing returns if nothing else.
That said, if you have a healthy relationship with Amex and you're chasing CL's, why not open a revolver there as well?

3 cards is more than enough for me to handle. I try to consolidate my points on one card, so my Amex is my pay for everything card. The Forward gets used exclusively at restaurants and Amazon, and the Mastercard is sitting around for any of the places that don't take Amex (given how watered down Thank You points are, I don't use the Forward at these places). I want both Visa and Mastercard so I'm set if I travel internationally to a place where one is more widely accepted than the other. The Sapphire will just replace my current Mastercard. I'm staying away from Amex revolvers because there just isn't a need for one with my current spend. All my Amex spend would still go on the PRG, and the revolver would just sit in the sock drawer. I'd rather not get a card I don't plan on using. The magical number for me right now is 3.
I would just SD the Dividend card (or better yet, keep it for the 5% categories). I don't think closing the TL down will help you. The CL of your Forward and Dividend is pretty similar anyway.

Executive Summary
BMI View: Rampant corruption will continue to be one of the key factors hindering the development of the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors in Cambodia. In addition, improving conditions in neighbouring countries such as Vietnam and Thailand mean Cambodia will be seen as relatively unattractive to investors, which does not help in the advancement of these sectors.
Headline Expenditure Projections
Pharmaceuticals: KHR651.8bn (US$161mn) in 2011 to KHR723.3bn (US$173mn) in 2012; +11% in local currency terms and +7.7% in US dollar terms. Growth forecast downgraded due to lower than expected pharmaceutical trade imports.
Healthcare: KHR2,982bn (US$737mn) in 2011 to KHR3,312bn (US$794mn) in 2012; +11.1% in local currency terms and +7.8% in US dollar terms. Forecast unchanged from Q412.
Medical Devices: KHR107.5bn (US$27mn) in 2011 to KHR118.1bn (US$28mn) in 2011; +9.8% in local currency terms and +6.6% in US dollar terms. Forecast unchanged from Q412.
Risk/Reward Rating: Cambodia continues to rank last out of the 18 key markets in BMI's Q113 Asia Pacific Pharmaceutical Risk/Reward Ratings due to its lack of commitment to healthcare and perceived corruption in the country. It has a score of 33.5, significantly lower than the region's average of 53.4.
Key Trends And Developments
In November 2012, a report issued by the National Center for Parasitology, Entomology and Malaria Control stated that d engue fever accounted for 170 child deaths in Cambodia in 10M12, up 154% from 67 fatalities in 10M11. Cambodia registered 39,290 dengue fever cases from January-October 2012, a 163% year-on-year increase up from 14,918 cases.
In the same month, the UN-backed Global Fund to fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria accused Cambodia of 'serious' corruption in the use of funds intended to combat these diseases. Cambodia Health Minister Mam Bunheng stated that he had no knowledge of the corruption claims.
In October 2012, the World Health Organization stated that the country has had significant success in the fight against tuberculosis (TB) in the last decade due to new universal care access to patients at primary health centres. The country, which has halved the number of new TB cases in the last decade, had one of the highest TB rates in the world 20 years ago. A survey in 2011 found TB prevalence declined from more than 1,500 cases per 100,000 people in 2002 to 820 in 2011, a reduction in prevalence of 40%. The country was able to achieve success due to the implementation of the WHO-recommended directly observed therapy, short course.
BMI Economic View: We expect foreign investment into Cambodia to help the country achieve rapid real GDP growth averaging 6.6% over the next five years. Chinese investment in infrastructure, spurred on by the close relationship between the Cambodian and Chinese governments, and Japanese investment in the manufacturing sector, are two areas of major growth potential.
BMI Political View: In a bid to strengthen the chances of challenging the government at the 2013 elections, Sam Rainsy, formerly of the Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) will join forces with the Human Rights Party (HRP) to lead the new Cambodian National Rescue Party (CNRP). However, the odds remain stacked against CNRP as Rainsy is barred from running. We believe that the CPP is almost certain to maintain its dominance at the 2013 elections, and we note that this is positive for the country's business environment in the near term but poses risks of further social unrest over the medium term.

After I saw the TV series I wanted to have the book, I even mailed Bob Cringely for the ISBN. A book like this could be a rather dull book, but this isn't one of those. This is a great book full of facts served with plenty of humour. Cringely was there when it happened, he knows what he's writing about. This book tells you about never released software, missed opportunities, killer applications, where the GUI came from, and much more in a language that isn't just for nerds.
I've read this book twice, I'm pretty sure I'll read it again...
Still, Cringley's smug, know-it-all attitude detracted from the book and made me question the credibility of his analysis. He paints people in black and white strokes, often portraying the object of his ridicule as blind to the obviously correct course of action. Cringely is especially harsh on people he perceives as ego-driven and insecure, which, ironically, is just how he struck me.
I suspect people who are not particularly tied into the computer culture won't find this worth reading. But if you are among those hooked on the computer industry and you can get past Cringely's attitude, the book has some useful insights, anecdotes, and facts.
As a journalist for Infoworld, Cringely leads us with a firm hand and clear passion for disentangling the intricate dependencies and relationships that reign in the computing industry. His book is a well informed account of the evolution of operating systems, hardware, networking, and print technologies starting from the day these were just wild ideas. Although the lecture may sound a little too technical and hence a bit complicated, this book is easy to follow. Through Cringely's talent we get a (funny but very plausible) portrait of the people, their desires, shortcommings, and in most cases genius and totally obsessive personalities.
Apart for the obvious animosity that the author nurtures towards Gates and Jobs whom he claims to be to various degrees true sociopaths, one with ambition to dominate the world, the other one to be accepted and loved, I find the whole overview to be an objective and informative account of the fascinating and tumultuous evolution of computing as we know today.Read more ›
I work in a company on the fringe of the computer industry. Sometimes co-workers come and ask me what to read to understand the industry. This is the first book I give them. The stories in this book, how Microsoft beat IBM, how Apple grew, etc. are the fundamental mythology of the industry. If you work in or near the industry you ought to read this book. As some other reviewers have noted, the tone will make some readers cringe a bit, but the tone is pretty depictive of the way in which many people in the industry actually see things.
The only reason I didn't give this book five stars is because it is a bit dated. Most of the stories have been told later and better by others so if you've already read a lot of the books about the industry this one will seem a bit old. Although I do still think this book is worth reading even if you've read the others.
_Accidental Empires_ is one of the funniest books I've read in a long time and as someone who works as a consultant for one of the companies roasted in its pages, I have to say that the passage of time has not made its commentary any less true. Also insightful, well-written, witty, etc.

The back side of the Prairie Arts Center building is biting the dust, part of the ongoing renovation of the former 1913 Federal Building downtown.
"This is one of those deals. Sometimes you have to go north to go south," said Gene Gilsdorf, who keeps the news media informed of the restoration.
An enclosed loading dock on the ground floor will provide a place for artworks to be moved in and out without exposure to the weather, Arts Council board member Wava Best said.
After years of fundraising, renovation of the old building began in the summer 2012. A new elevator was installed, along with new staircases. The basement was renovated, thanks to the efforts of many volunteers, and is now used for art classes.
The ground floor will be renovated this winter, Best said. Bids are being accepted to remodel the entire floor.
Another major fundraising push is in development stage, aiming to raise enough money to completely restore the second and third floors of the building, Best said.
The 101-year-old building sits squarely at the corner of Fifth and U.S. Highway 83/Jeffers St.

- Shipping: We suggest bringing your branches in 8-10 days prior to your event. See handling and forcing instructions on the next "flowering branch care" tab.

- Upon arrival of your branches, recut the bottom of the branches with large branch cutters and place them in fresh water.
- If your branches are in tight bud stage, place them in a warm room at about 70-75 degrees until the buds are open enough for your event.

Identifying Peer Effects in Student Academic Achievement by Spatial Autoregressive Models with Group Unobservables
Disentangling peer effects from other confounding effects is difficult,and separately identifying endogenous and contextual effects is impossible for the linear-in-means model. This study confronts these problems by using spatial autoregressive models with group fixed effects. The nonlinearity introduced by the variations in the peer measurements provides information to identify both endogenous and contextual effects,thus resolving the "reflection problem." The group fixed effects term captures the confounding effects of the common variables.Applying the model to data sets from the National Longitudinal Studyof Adolescent Health, I find strong evidence for both endogenous and contextual effects in student academic achievement.

Molotov cocktails thrown at three more churches in Makassar
Andi Hajramurni
The Jakarta Post
Three churches in Makassar, South Sulawesi, became on Thursday the latest targets of violent attacks, which were committed by unidentified persons who threw Molotov cocktails at them.
The churches in question were the Makassar Indonesian Christian Church (GKI) on Jl. Samiun; Panakkukang Toraja Klasis Church on Jl. Andi Pangerang Pettarani; and Toraja Klasis Tallo Church on Jl. Gatot Subroto.
The first attack, on Toraja Klasis Tallo Church, took place on Thursday morning at around 3 a.m. local time (2 a.m. Jakarta time). Its front entrance was damaged by fire.
An hour later at 4 a.m., Panakkukang Toraja Klasis Church was attacked. The gasoline concoction hit a wall that became blackened by fire but was relatively undamaged.
At the same time, the GKI building was also attacked. The damage to the church was quite severe, as one of its windows was smashed and its floor tiles damaged and blackened. Shattered glass from the bottles used to make the Molotov cocktails was found scattered on the floor.
GKI priest John Parengkuan said that when the incident occurred, two security guards were on duty at a security post. Both of them heard a loud blast. "They immediately rushed outside, but a fire was already blazing inside the church," he said.
Four men are believed to have been involved in the attack. They were traveling on two motorcycles and pulled up in front of the church. Two of the men got off the bikes and tossed the Molotov cocktails at the church.
"Their actions were recorded by closed-circuit television [CCTV] installed in front of the church. Hopefully, the tape will reveal their identities," said Parengkuan.
No one witnessed the attacks on the Toraja Klasis Tallo and Panakkukang Toraja Klasis churches. Local residents only became aware of the attacks after hearing explosions.
On Sunday, the Tiatira Church in Malengkeri and Toraja Mamasa Church (GTM) on Jl. Dirgantara, Makassar had also been targeted in the same way by unidentified persons using Molotov cocktails. Similar homemade bombs were also used on the same day to attack two ATMs owned by Bank Mandiri.
South Sulawesi Police chief Insp. Gen. Mudji Waluyo said a special team had been formed to investigate the cases.
He added that police had not disclosed previous Molotov cocktail attacks in Makassar that had occurred since September last year, as they were focusing on securing the South Sulawesi gubernatorial election, which took place on Jan. 22.
However, Mudji acknowledged that his men had been unable to identify the perpetrators.
Separately, former vice president Jusuf Kalla, who happened to be in Makassar on Thursday, immediately called a meeting with interreligious and community leaders, local administration officials and heads of the police and military at Makassar's City Hall. Kalla also inspected the GKI building.
During the meeting, Kalla said the incidents needed to be solved quickly so as to prevent them from triggering a sectarian conflict.
"These incidents remain relatively insignificant, but similar acts must be prevented and these cases must be solved. If not, they will escalate and be hard to overcome. Based on my experience in mitigating conflicts, a sectarian conflict is the most difficult to resolve," he said.
Kalla, who chairs the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI), also urged people to avoid mutual suspicion and respect each other in order to maintain ethnic and religious harmony in the province.
Kalla said he believed the attacks were just an attempt by irresponsible people to pit one group against another and to divide people in South Sulawesi in general, and Makassar in particular.
Spokesman for the GKI in South Sulawesi, Rev. Untung, said the church attacks were not just an issue for the Christian community but a wider social issue that needed all peace-loving people to address together.
Meanwhile, the chairman of Makassar's interfaith communication forum, Rahim Yunus, strongly condemned the attacks against the five churches.

Staff wintering in at Antarctica's Scott Base were left dazzled when the Southern Lights danced upon the darkened skies over the white continent.
The 15-strong team, made up of ten Antarctica New Zealand employees and five Antarctic Heritage Trust Conservators, are likely to see more spectacular Aurora Australis as the winter season progresses.
The lights, captured here by Antarctica New Zealand's Tim Delany, are caused when the Earth's magnetic field interacts with a flow of highly-charged particles from the sun.
As these particles collide with molecules in the atmosphere they release energy which are seen as light.
Base mechanic Lex McKenzie, spending his second winter on ice, said the spectacles were a treat of the season.
"The Aurora's I have seen here are simply amazing, you never know if or when you will see another one due to the extreme weather we can get here over the winter, so when we do see an aurora we always make an effort to watch it and make the most of this special experience."

At first glance this might seem like one of the sillier downloads available on WiiWare, but as anyone whos enjoyed the very relaxing My Aquarium on the Wii will tell you, these background features do actually work! *My Fireplace does exactly what it says on the tin its a fireplace for your TV set! According to the developers, Korner Entertainment S.L. and Continental Producciones S.L., My Fireplace is the first hyper-realistic fireplace for the Wii. How you want to tend to your pretend fire is all up to you. You can either choose to prepare the wood, light the fire and stoke it yourself, or select the automatic option to have the fireplace on your screen while you eat with your family, throw a party or have a cosy dinner for two (which may or may not involve the special Love style fireplace design which is one of several extra designs included. Intrigued by that!). My Fireplace is due for release sometime this year, no word about price yet either but My Aquarium was pretty cheap so presumably this will be too.* Just dont try toasting marshmallows on it though or youll be waiting a long time!
Better still.
Light it up and enjoy the smell of burning plastic

I ordered this for myself and now ordered it for a friend. I get so much use out of this due cut. There's 13 and they're graduated ever so slightly so when you use two or more together, you get an amazing look.
Great staple to your die cutting collection! I've paired mine with Nesting Lace Ovals to coordinate beautifully!
Used right away. They are perfect for my card making needs.

You know who it is.
Niggas talkin all crazy, like I'm a talk back to em,
Naw I'm a let the gat tattoo em.
And I can't get it in, I'll jus black blue em
Like Ezel and P.Miller, screw em.
Bring your best rapper to me and I'll chew em
Mike Vick em, OJ em, Ray Carue em.
I'm part intelligent part schitzo
And my pain it should help shit grow.
Rap Klitzco, every punch is hard
You can't take that from me it come from God.
My trunk small and shit
My engine on my back
LIke South Jamaica, I'm fuckin mack.
Ya'll little niggas, go and pump a pack.
Green Gang bars, ain't no punkin that.
My coffee shop sell weed in it,
I damn near overdose every visit.
Out in Amsterdam where they smoke in the street
And sell pussy like bread minus the blood shed.
Lamb logo blood red
More rings than Chicago, nuff said.
My mommy had heart attacks back to back, Sorry
But I wasn't really thinkin bout rap.
And my pops jus passed I had to think about that
That can be enough to set a nigga of track. I'm back.
In fact, niggas know exactly what to do. And what not to do. Anythings possible. See I'm back, Everything else, really don't matter from here on out.
I pop bottles like a beat a case
My mind race at a cheetahs pace, with addidas lace.
They fell in love with my neck, I don't need a face
Nigga you ain't got shit if you don't need a safe.
These youngins get extorted every year
By old niggas with salt and pepper hair.
Shits rough I lower a coffin every year
Funeral arrangements and mortuary care.
Yea, I'm in a class with a few
Like a spec-ed kid, eatin glue.
I'm colder than a baby abandoned
The cannon will lay down everything standin.
Go head stunt end up like Brandon
You come to me better be God's plannin
Don't get your ears popped like your landin.
I'm flyin spurin, radar scramblin.
Puerto Rican but I speak dough fluent
Bachelor pad don't gotta sneak hoes to it.
I speed through the yellows and run the reds
They hear about if you bump heads, cause they'll be dumb lead.
If I ain't top 5 who is?
I'm lyrically loved in every town you live
Scarface cameras all around the crib.
Niggas slip on the grass get hit with the sig.
They sick though and my plane 1st class for the rain
Turbalance got me rockin champagne stains.
If I get 4 lanes, I'm a do my time
I get 200 or somethin, with a flow of mines.
Cuttin grass, cause nine niggas mowin mine
Look directly in the watch, you goin blind.
I'm flyest nigga doin it ask yo mom
My shit the bomb they used back in 'Nam.
Your soulmate wanna ride shotgun
And pretend like she don't got one.
You know what's next minagin on the yacht son
Ready to unload like a cop gun.
You get pregnant then it's to the chop shop
Cause I don't change diapers, I change drop tops.
Most wanted number with my black glock cocked
You know.

Joey DeFrancesco with the City Rhythm Orchestra
315 West 44th St
New York, NY, 10036
Doors 10:30 PM / Show 11:00 PM
Joey DeFrancesco with the City Rhythm Orchestra
Joey DeFrancesco comes from a musical family. His Grandfather Joseph DeFrancesco (his name sake) was a reed man. His father "Papa" John DeFrancesco is a fine jazz organist in his own right. At the age of 4 Joey began taking a strong interest in the organ. By the time he was five, he was playing Jimmy Smith songs verbatim. As the years went on his interest and love for the organ and music grew stronger. From the ages of 5-10 his father would bring him to his own gigs and let him sit in. At 10 years of age he began to play in a Band in Philadelphia, which featured legendary players Hank Mobley on Tenor Saxophone, and "Philly" Joe Jones on the Drums. At 16 he signed an exclusive recording contract with Columbia Records, releasing his first record "All Of Me" at 17. This record was single handedly responsible for the great resurgence of the Hammond sound in popular music. Also in his 17th year he was called on by the great Miles Davis to join his band, and toured all over Europe. It was at that time that Joey, inspired by Miles's sound, picked up the trumpet & started playing. To this day, Joey continues to play the trumpet, very similar to the style of Miles. At 18, Joey began touring with his own quartet. At 22, John McLaughlin called him along with drummer Dennis Chambers, to form the group the "Free Spirits". This band toured extensively for 4 years. Joey has been around the world and back dozens of times with his own trio, but also playing and recording with some of the greatest musicians in the world such as, Ray Charles, Bette Midler, David Sanborn, Arturo Sandoval, Frank Wess, Benny Golson, James Moody, Steve Gadd, Elvin Jones, Jimmy Cobb, George Benson, John Scofield, Joe Lovano, and many more. He has won the Down Beat Critics poll eleven times & the Readers poll ever year since 2002, as well as countless Jazz Journalist awards, and countless others. In 2004 Joey was nominated for a Grammy for his record "Falling In Love Again", and again in 2010 for his release titled "Never Can Say Goodbye". Currently, Joey continues to tour with his own group, and other all-star projects. His latest release "One For Rudy" is a tribute to the legendary recording engineer Rudy Van Gelder. Joey has played a key role in the development of numerous modern organs & keyboards that replicate the classic Hammond organ/Leslie speaker sound.

Chris Haynes, a former Trail Blazers reporter with Comcast SportsNet Northwest, published a personal essay Friday alleging racial profiling by the Portland Police Bureau in connection with a never disclosed 2013 arrest and acquittal.
Haynes now covers the Cleveland Cavaliers for The Plain Dealer/Northeast Ohio Media Group. The Northeast Ohio Media Group and Oregonian Media Group are sister companies.
The personal essay comes as Cavaliers superstar LeBron James faces scrutiny from some for not weighing in on the 2014 Cleveland shooting death of 12-year-old Tamir Rice.
Haynes, who is African-American, said he felt compelled to "dive into my own shortcomings" in light of the attention surrounding James' relative silence.
The 34-year-old reporter said he missed an opportunity to file a lawsuit against the city of Portland. "I missed an opportunity to make change. It's something I'm not proud of," he wrote.
Haynes was arrested July 2, 2013 near his Northeast Portland home and charged with interfering with public transportation. He was acquitted, according to court records.
According to Haynes, he frequently paces while having lengthy phone conversations. On that night, he walked outside his home near a light rail track and called co-worker Peter Socotch at around 11 p.m. to discuss the latest happenings on the Blazers beat. Here's what happened next:
I told Socotch I would call him back, but he replied "no" and said to keep him on the phone. That was smart. The officer approached me and asked to see my identification, to which I said, "Officer, is this really necessary? My house is right here."
He demanded I show some form of I.D., and I wanted to know why he was going down this path. He said it was because I was trespassing, and he needed to look up who I was. That's when he asked, "Do you have a warrant I should know about?"
I was baffled. I knew where this was going. I'm 6-foot-2, 195 pounds and dark as they come. My attire was a white tank top, black shorts and basketball shoes. I believed I was being racially profiled.I said, "Officer, I'm not that dude you think I am." At this point, another cop arrived for backup and the situation escalated.
Of course, James would be fine financially if he did act on it, but if we're going to ask a high-caliber celebrity to make a huge sacrifice, we have to be willing to do the same thing. So, while I was surprised by James' comment about not being educated on the Rice incident, I can't call him on it, because a few years ago, I stayed silent. Some would argue that I did the right thing; some would argue I missed an opportunity.

Skip to comments.Tactical Firearms claims they were misrepresented on Piers Morgan Tonight
Posted on 02/07/2013 4:27:44 AM PST by marktwain
KATY, TX The gun control debate may be a bit out of control in Katy.
CNNs Piers Morgan chose Tactical Firearms, a Katy gun shop and shooting range as the backdrop for Mondays episode of Piers Morgan Tonight. Included in the Mondays debate were Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, State Senator Dan Patrick and Ted Nugent.
Tactical Firearms owner, Jeremy Alcede claims Morgan told him he wanted to use the time at the gun shop as a learning exercise.
Alcede said, He said, well, Id like to learn more about guns. People criticize me, saying, how can I be against guns if I dont know anything about guns?
Sounds good so far.
I said man, this is going to be really good, he really is wanting to find out.
Alcede says he was told the segment he was in would be live, but that wasnt the case.
The points that I did make were just garbled to the point that people were asking why was I speaking in broken sentences, and I said, look back at the video and youll see, in one instance Im wearing glasses, one Im not. One hearing protection, one not. They just chopped it up so bad it wasnt even funny.
Was it a cheap shot?
They completely misrepresented what I wanted to get across, completely.
We reached out to CNN for a response, but have not yet heard back from them.
All this as President Obama is pushing his gun control agenda. Were guessing he wont be welcome in Katy.
When contacted, the shop should have said no and also informed them that if they showed up a criminal trespass order would be filed. How could one be so stupid as to let that bunch on the property?
"The left is all about lies and manipulation. "
Why not? Their LIAR in chief is a master at it.
Exactly. The only way the left wins these "debates" is playing on peoples emotions. They can't do that with facts, so they must lie.
The only way he should have agreed to this was with a couple of conditions. One, he gets to see the final edited cut 48 hours prior to airtime. Two, he gets access to all unedited raw video and audio. Three, he gets equal time to add his own rebuttal at the end using any footage or new footage. You know cnn, or any msm group with an agenda, would never go for it... Because they would either have to be fair and honest, our come off looking like the agenda driven manipulative jerks they are.
Piers Morgan keeps getting his rear end handed to him yet keeps having these pro-second amendment people on the show.
Its an effort to get ratings in addition to pushing their agenda. We are playing their game.
Those dumbasses were warned something like this would happen but did they listen? Noooooooooo...
Morgan lost his job in the UK for dishonesty, why would anyone expect him to be different now?
Lesson learned? Next time, or really anytime you have Media creeps recording you or any other Conservative: Have your own recording going. Do not let them control the timing and presentation.
Better yet, never sit down with such enemies in the first place...
As the old saying goes, you lie with the dogs you gonna get their fleas....
He made the choice to let this dirt bag on his property and now he is going to pay the price. He made a "low informed" decision just like the "low informed" voter.
What is wrong with these stupid people?
Why not, the Whigs keep going on the Presidential debates with the same people.
CNNNBCCBSABCMSNBC: Mr. President, what is your favorite color?
CNNNBCCBSABCMSNBC: Hey doofus Whig, how many old people do you plan to take their Social Security away?
Another failure to inform the citizen about the duplicity of Pravda and the need to take their own video just like the Globull Warming skeptics do now. CNN has been doing the same thing since Teddy Turner started this crappy network. Take a look at how CNN has produced fraudulent video of the Sandy Hook hoax.
There should be a new rule among conservatives. Never trust a liberal. Always assume he's lying. Again, that's "Never" and "Always".
I have been familiar with the news media's tactics for some time. They will lie, cheat and distort anything you say to get their liberal point portrayed and not you personal views or opinions.
Here's my suggestion to anyone who would be approached for a media interview. Give them NOTHING! They will change and distort what ever you say, just to make up their story. If they are going to lie, let them do it on their own and not use you as their scapegoat.
Yes: The first mistake was made when they trusted Piers Morgan —and the Media in general.
I once had a bad experience with the Media, and the best way to handle them is to stay as far away as possible.
There's no reason to believe that liberalism/leftism would be based on anything else.
Liberalism is the political expression of the religion of Humanism, which had its origins in the lie "you will be as gods", from the father of lies himself.
Ha. It reminds me of the SNL skit with Connie Chung, Newt Gingrich (Chris Farley), and Newt's Mom.
He should rename his business to Tactical FAIL.
Exactly my first thought. When will the right, or anyone opposing anything the left is pushing, learn that they will NOT get a fair break from the left, and should shun them at all times? Unless they just grab the microphone when they know for sure they're live, and ignore the libtard host or anchor?
Morgan is all about self promotion. Stop enabling him.
Another sucker who trusted the media; you'd think everyone would know better by now.
More people read this thread than actually saw it on Piers Morgan's show.
I'm not sure about Piers Morgan, but I'd guess secret Stalinist.
We have a winner. When dealing with any media "Just Say NO", they are well practiced at making people look foolish in just 30 seconds. Remember they own the camera, they own the film, and they own the editing equipment. Enough said.
And/or four: get the agreement to air, unedited, in writing. (Then you have a much better legal case if they do try something.)
Never, NEVER interact with the press without filming the whole thing yourself.
