Assign Christiane Amanpour to do an attack piece on blogs
That's a good one too.

I voted for Ms. Amanpour. Sadly I can imagine this really happening.
Ron Paul was my second choice, though.

Charles, you should change 'C' to "Assign Christiane Amanpour to do an attack piece on Right Wing / Conservative blogs"
| 10 |
Lee Coller Fri, Jan 9, 2009 3:30:54pm |
In the end I actually think they'll retract the story. Then assign Christiane Amanpour to do an attack piece on blogs.

Good one, Charles.
It, following Amanpour, kind of throws the whole thing into the realm of the ridiculous ... (which is perhaps where it came from in the first place.)

Hey all, great poll, I voted for the blog hit piece! Seems the most likely. I have a feeling Ron Paul is used to being second, or 497th. Same thing!

The *shallow compressions* aren't necessarily the issue..with children, compressions are quite a bit shallower than with adults. The applying of ? patches after looking at the monitor is mighty odd, as they appear to be EKG patches for attaching the monitor! The child is wearing an O2 mask, which you can see if you go thru the frames slowly. To my eyes, CPR is being performed not on the child himself but on the blanket that covers him, and it appears the compressions are being performed on his abdomen, not his chest.
I have done my fair share of CPR compressions (RN ret.) and this just all looks wrong.

I have done my fair share of CPR compressions (RN ret.) and this just all looks wrong.
The compressions are supposed to be shallower for children, but only in an absolute sense. They're still supposed to be a third of the depth of the chest, right? That's pretty deep. Those "compressions" aren't moving the chest wall at all.
Others have also suggested that the guy is pushing way too inferiorly. I wasn't sure that I could make that call before, but now that I have a nice hi-res, stop-frame-able version, I agree with you. The guy is tapping on the abdomen, not the chest.
I don't think the kid is wearing a facemask. He has some sort of band-like thing across his mouth. It looks to me like the the plastic "ET tube securing band" thing that they often use on the show "ER", when there's an intubated patient, and they're trying to conceal the fact that the tube isn't really going very far into the mouth. I've never seen one in real life. Anyway, whatever the thing is, there's no tubing that's leaving it and leading to an oxygen source, don't you agree?

Off topic, but Baltimore's Mayor, Sheila Dixon, has just been indicted in an ongoing corruption investigation that snagged a council member last week.
You have to search long and hard to find any mention of her party affiliation in news accounts. Apparently, the missing "(D)" designation is now a journalistic standard when it comes to reporting on corrupt politicians of at least one party.

Israeli Troops “Stomping Heads” Of Palestinian Babies
A most shocking report against the Israeli Military Forces currently exterminating the Palestinian peoples in Gaza states that Norwegian doctors have turned over evidence to the United Nations showing that IDF Troops have ‘stomped’ the heads of at least 18 Arab babies causing immediate death due to the ‘ejection of mass brain matter’.
One of these Arab babies brutally stomped to death [pictured 2nd photo left] was reported to be one-and-a-half years old and upon his skull being crushed so that his brain matter expelled, the Israeli soldier were reported to have ‘screamed with delight’ that this babies death was ‘one less vermin we’ll have to fight in the future’.

Present at the meeting was Hearst Newspaper President Steve Swartz, who told the newsroom that Hearst Corp. is starting a 60-day process to find a buyer.
If a buyer is not found, Swartz said, possible options include creating an all-digital operation with a greatly reduced staff, or closing its operations entirely.
In no case will Hearst continue to publish the P-I in printed form, Swartz said.

Others have also suggested that the guy is pushing way too inferiorly. I wasn't sure that I could make that call before, but now that I have a nice hi-res, stop-frame-able version, I agree with you. The guy is tapping on the abdomen, not the chest.
I don't think the kid is wearing a facemask. He has some sort of band-like thing across his mouth. It looks to me like the the plastic "ET tube securing band" thing that they often use on the show "ER", when there's an intubated patient, and they're trying to conceal the fact that the tube isn't really going very far into the mouth. I've never seen one in real life. Anyway, whatever the thing is, there's no tubing that's leaving it and leading to an oxygen source, don't you agree?
Sorry, am also making dinner.
I think you are right: there is definitely something over his mouth, hard to say what it is. High res. would tell us, I am sure.

then i heard , on the bbc AGAIN, that children were found STARVING in another house because their parents had been killed.

I don't remember what all she sang to. The talent there was really diverse. There was an older guy who did country/bluegrass tunes who was a real hoot.

I only ever saw one person that tried to start a fight over race, and the black guy just ignored his shit. The dude doing the instagating should probably thank him.

Science lessons to stir debate
New arguments have erupted on how to teach evolution in Louisiana public schools.
Last year lawmakers enacted a law to overhaul the way evolution and other controversial science topics are taught in middle and high schools.
Now the focus is the state Board of Elementary and Secondary Education, which is required by the new law to come up with guidelines for local school districts that seek assistance.
An advisory panel set up by the state Department of Education has recommended guidelines that won praise from opponents of the law.
Barbara Forrest, of Holden, a professor and co-founder of the LA Coalition for Science, said the rules would block any efforts to inject creationism or intelligent design under the guise of science.

I'm not really sure what the thing on the mouth is either. I'm thinking it's some bandlike white plastic thing. Maybe it's an oral airway. Whatever it is, there's obviously nobody bagging the patient, nor is there room at the head of the bed for someone to stand there and bag the patient.

"I know the whole family. I know them very well. ... [Mashharawi] is upset and angry that anyone would think of him having done anything like this. ... This is ridiculous. He's independent."
Raafat Hamdouna, administrative director at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, said Friday that "Mahmoud Khalil Mashharawi, a 12-year-old, was brought to the hospital, and he was breathing, but he was hit in the head and all over his body by shrapnel. He died later in the hospital. He was treated by the Norwegian team. When he was brought in, he was breathing. The team did their best to save him. I am not really sure if they even tried to rush him to the surgery room, because he was badly hurt."
So they "fact checked" by contacting a personal friend of the cameraman and the hospital who staged the incident?

re: #246 mean Gene
Wow, that's huge. CNN is really upping the ante. They won't even admit that they pulled the video while they were "checking its veracity" or something like that:
The video footage appeared on CNN television networks and on CNN.com for 24 hours before CNN removed the material in the belief that it had no further right to use it. CNN, standing by the video, has since reposted it. Some bloggers had cited its removal as evidence that CNN did not stand by its reporting.
That sounds like a complete 100% through-the-teeth lie to me. "No further right to use it?" But I dunno, maybe it's true.
What's most interesting is this part:
Responding to accusations that the resuscitation efforts of Mashharawi's brother appeared inauthentic, Martin said that, based on his years of reporting from Gaza, doctors often go through such efforts even with little hope that a patient can be saved.
Are they admitting that the doctors were faking the resuscitation, but saying that they were doing it for the family's benefit, to make it look like they're doing everything they can? And neither the cameraman nor the editors were aware of this?

Maybe CNN will explain to the man who filmed this that it was the Pali ''doctors'' who were faking that they were treating the boy.
His camera work wasn't so manipulated.....if it had been they'd have edited out the tickling of the boy's chest.
Maybe they'll be yet another person in Gaza who now hates Hamas' collective guts.

Wow, that's huge. CNN is really upping the ante. They won't even admit that they pulled the video while they were "checking its veracity" or something like that:
Are they admitting that the doctors were faking the resuscitation, but saying that they were doing it for the family's benefit, to make it look like they're doing everything they can? And neither the cameraman nor the editors were aware of this?
OY! No matter which way they go with this, two things happen:
1. CNN discredited (yawn)

Yeah, women are hard to work with when you are teaching them martial arts. Most of then have the "I'm a girl" thing, and they can't throw a punch to save their lives. I once had to teach a girl that when you are using a knife on someone you needed to use the sharp side of the knife to cut you with. She wasn't dumb (she was a doctoral candidate in Mathematics), she just had never in her life ever thought about using a knife to actually cut a person.

Cnn and Paul Martin go back at least to 2003. This is a Larry King transcript "Aired April 12, 2003".
Let's meet a panel of experts now. In Kuwait City is Paul Martin, Chief Correspondent and Editor-in-Chief of "World News and Features." He's been covering the Mid East beat for "The Washington Times." [...] Paul, what kind of aftermath is this going to be like? What do you make of post war Iraq?PAUL MARTIN, "WORLD NEWS AND FEATURES": Well, good evening, Larry, yes. I think this is the most crucial period. Winning a war is one thing, winning the peace obviously much more important and, if I may say so, the coalition forces have not made a very good start of it.
The allowing, permitting in effect looting to take place on this grand scale, even the museum has been ransacked with 170,000 items apparently destroyed, the history of that great country, as well as hospitals, water facilities. It hasn't been, it seems to me, as well planned as it should have been.

re: #386 ted
"Raafat Hamdouna, administrative director at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, said Friday that "Mahmoud Khalil Mashharawi, a 12-year-old, was brought to the hospital, and he was breathing, but he was hit in the head and all over his body by shrapnel. He died later in the hospital. He was treated by the Norwegian team. When he was brought in, he was breathing. The team did their best to save him. I am not really sure if they even tried to rush him to the surgery room, because he was badly hurt."
Anyone brought into the ER with this claimed level of trauma and not sent to the OR immediately is a victim of malpractice.
you do the code going down the hall to wherever the surgery are is...

re: #216 ArmyWife
I believe I posited a similar development (shoe tossing loons) a few weeks ago. I was roundly down-dinged for my efforts.
But, I'll say it again anyway. The Left (with a huge sustained assist from the MSM) loves to come up with these little symbolic acts that connect them with the enemies of the U.S. None of them have ever been in the slightest bit of danger from the Bush Admin., but they have to pretend that they are bravely fighting oppression to justify their own ignorance and insanity. Mimicking a "journalist in occupied Iraq" gives them a vicarious thrill.

re: #295 ArmyWife
Wonder how long it took to come up with THAT cover story - how long was this down again?
I gotta say, if that's the story they're gonna go with, it's not a bad one. It would explain why the medical team did such a ridiculously poor job of faking a code. If they had been more authentic, then the boy, supposedly missing appendages and all, would be lying stark naked on a blood-stained bed, while a huge man mashed deeply and repeatedly into his chest, causing his little body to bounce up and down, his lifeless little limbs flying about wildly. Bag ventilation would cause his chest to rise up and down in a macabre imitation of the natural breathing that he was doing himself, just hours before. There's also this horrible honking sound that escapes whenever someone happens to squeeze the bag at the same moment while someone is compressing the chest, which happens frequently. The whole thing would be quite disturbing, to say the least, to an already-shocked family member.
In America, we don't let someone watch a family member being coded. But if I were going to pretend to try to resuscitate a boy for the benefit of family members who were watching, and who didn't know what a real code looked like, I might do a ridiculously poor imitation like the one on the tape, so as not to further upset anyone.
But I really don't think I'd let the whole thing be videotaped, and then released to the news media. At least, not without going on record as saying that I was faking it, in order to reassure the family that everything possible had been done. Because the boy was already dead on arrival, because the horrible Israelis so horribly attacked him with so much force, and the family was so upset, and everyone's so upset because the Israelis are so evil... etc... There would have been plenty of propaganda value in that too, and I don't see why Gilbert didn't do it.
I'm not quite ready to swallow this explanation just yet.

re: #410 Iron Fist
More like a small collection. That's not really that big an arsenal. I'll admit that I probably wouldn't go down to the airport with everything that I have falling out of my truck, but I have to wonder what law has he broken? Just owning a gun (or several guns) is not a crime. At least not yet.
I hope the dude sues the Police for a couple of hundred million dollars
California's weapons transportation laws are pretty strict. Transporting a handgun it must be unloaded (and case law states that a loaded magazine is a loaded gun -- I know ...) and in a locked case. An "Assault Rifle" must be transported similarly. Also stated is that you can only transport an "assault rifle" "directly to and from a place you are legally allowed to possess the weapon". He's at least afoul of the loaded weapon and "direct transportation" requirements. The local paper indicated he had an AR-15 (and it also turned out to be only 10 handguns and 5 rifles).

I know it is unwise to have a dissenting view here, but the reason I dinged down this thread and a couple of the comments is that I think it was hilarious to put Ron Paul as a voting option on every poll put up during the US Election cycle but now it seems to negate or put a humorous bent on what otherwise would be a serious issue, that is CNN duplicity and spin.
Perhaps I should not have looked beyond the word "Silly" in the heading.
