Wright to Offer Prayer Rebuttal at Democrat Convention
2008-05-01 17:44:00 (2008-05-01) — The Democrat National Committee (DNC) announced today it would allow the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the Official Disavowed Pastor of the Obama for America campaign, to deliver the “invocation rebuttal” at the party’s convention in Denver this August. “After the traditional opening prayer and the singing of ‘God Bless America’,” said an unnamed DNC source, ...
My Rebuttal: Church Walks the Walk of King’s Message
2008-04-14 23:20:00 “Bishop Jakes has always been a strong supporter of my father Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the King family. Bishop Jakes along with many other ministries of his ilk, all continue to convey the dream and the message of my father in the services they provide to oppressed people around the world. Some may say that the ministers of today have different techniques, but the core of the message and the goal, remains the same.” Martin Luther King, III I was stunned and very disappointed to see an article by John Blake on CNN.com with the blaring headline, “Modern Black Church Shuns King’s Message.” Even more disturbing to me than the headline was Mr. Blake’s depiction and generalization that I, through my church The Potter’s House of Dallas, had shunned Dr. King’s message. In the article Mr. Blake asserts that “I declined to talk to him” about the subject, which is only partially true. I am sorry if my unavailability has caused him angst. I declined to speak wit...
Enough is Enough: A Patriot Fan's Rebuttal
2008-02-18 08:30:00 For the love of God, enough is enough. It’s been five months since the Patriots were caught videotaping the Jets’ sidelines. Five months. Yet I’m still reading articles about how the Patriots are horrible cheaters, destroying the NFL, worst organization in history, never deserved to win, worse than Bin Ladin, responsible for the out-of-control youth in America, causing the nation to go into a recession, yadda, yadda, yadda. The Patriots cheated, were caught, and were punished. End of story, right? Of course not. All of the "my franchise is holier-than-thou and would never cheat" NFL fans don't think the punishment is enough. A $750,000 fine and the docking of a first round draft pick, the harshest penalty in NFL history, isn't enough. A publicity-hungry Senator who still can’t believe Donovan McNabb threw three interceptions in the Super Bowl is actually wasting government time and money investigating what the Patriots have done over the last seven years. Wa...
Debunkers' Best Rebuttal: "Willie Smokes Pot"
2008-02-05 20:57:00 Thanks to PrisonPlanet for this article: Debunkers' Best Rebuttal: "Willie Smokes Pot" Frothing establishment bloggers feebly try to diffuse American icon's views on 9/11Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet Tuesday, February 5th, 2008Establishment bloggers are in a bind today - attempting to ridicule American icon Willie Nelson for his comments about the WTC twin towers being imploded on 9/11, with the best rebuttal they can muster being the fact that Willie smokes pot. When Charlie Sheen publicly questioned the official 9/11 story in March 2006, debunkers didn't tackle him on the facts, they tried to discredit him with lurid hit pieces about his behavior as a 20-something millionaire living in Las Vegas in the 1980's. We fully expected the same tactics to be employed against Willie, but the fact that Nelson i...
The Chicken Little Pundits Rebuttal or The Housing Bubble Bloggers Retort

Rebuttal to Jezebel's "Michelle Obama is not a lighter shade of 'trophy' wi
2007-12-16 16:59:00 I'm not sure how I feel about Anna's recent post on Jezebel, titled "Michelle Obama is not a lighter shade of 'trophy' wife." Like the author, I am thrilled to see Michelle Obama, a beautiful, super-smart, powerful black woman, gaining attention on the world stage. I think Obama would make a wonderful first lady--a true role model for the nation's girls and boys alike. (I say this even though Barack Obama is my second choice, behind John Edwards, for the Democratic nomination.)Here's where the Jezebel author perplexes me:It was an awe-inspiring show of celebrity, but, looking over the manyphotographs of the duo's three-state tour on Saturday and Sunday -- somethingother than Oprah's outfits stood out: The fact that Michelle Obama, thepersonable, whip-smart 43-year old Harvard law grad and take-no-prisoners wifeof the senator from Illinois... is black."Black" is both a commonly-accepted and extremely loaded description ofskin color in this country. (And no wonder: used as an ...

Hitchens - A Rebuttal
2007-12-06 08:28:00 Christopher Hitchens has written a masterpiece of idiocy and foolishness on The Slate. This shows the true triumph of distorted ideas and baseless convictions in the face of evidence, logic or scholarship. I haven't laughed so much in ages. In fact, since I really don't like Chanukah, this is probably the best thing that has happened all week!This rebuttal of what Christopher Hitchens says is only scratching the surface of his mistakes and errors. But I have to leave room for others as well.The basis of his arguments is that Chanukah celebrates the triumph of theocratic darkness against the enlightenment of Greek philosophy and science. He obviously didn't go to cheder, or to history class, because this is the opposite of what historical records show.Although there are claims that Alexander the Great was a student of Aristotle and a philosopher in his own right, no such claims are extended to Antiochus IV Epiphanes. He was the first king to declare himself to be a god, and was co...

Paddy Ashdown : Forceful Rebuttal of War on Terror Concept
2007-09-19 08:05:00 Lord Paddy Ashdown is highly regarded by the new British PM, Gordon Brown, and was sought after by the Bush administration to provide input on the war in Afghanistan.In an era when a lot of people have allowed hyper-patriotism and an overwrought sense of emergency to cloud clear thinking - Ashdown offers a dose of badly needed clarity.He thinks the West’s strategy in fighting terrorism is historically illiterate and counter-productive.Here are some quotes from Ashdown that appeared in a recent Guardian article ...“Our problem is that we have chosen the wrong mindset, the wrong battlefield, the wrong weapons and the wrong strategies to win this campaign. We have chosen to fight an idea, primarily with force.”He adds that the West’s tactics ...“... have strengthened the concepts of our enemies and weakened our own.”Ashdown also stresses that the threat has been exaggerated and the West’s response wrong headed ...“We have chosen language and means which unite the moder...

The rebuttal
2007-08-24 07:13:00 [Editors Note: This article goes along with my post about the tennis wagering in Vegas, but from a differing point of view ? my opponent?s. Read on for more details. Also, I was at the U.S. Open qualifiers yesterday to pick up my media credentials ? I?ll have a post on Saturday before I leave for New York that talks about the Open, what?s in store for [G/R], and some other info I?m sure.]As I sit on the Amtrak 285 from the Big Apple back to my hometown in central New York, I find myself reminiscing about the past five days of pure and utter enjoyment in the City of Sin. Many people have said that leaving Las Vegas with any money is a victory in itself. So, I guess when all three of my friends and I leave Vegas with more money in our wallets than we came with, it is probably congruent to a double bagel victory in tennis. This of course, leads me to my reason to writing this post: to discuss our tennis betting.Although I have not read Ed?s initial post, I have a good idea of what he d...

Rosie O'Bloody Hell (a Tina-cious rebuttal)
2007-05-23 18:40:00 This post is written mostly in response to: Rosie, a paradigm of Ellen?s legacy (the entry before mine) - why? Because this was too damn long to be a comment.Why else? I was bored.Anyway, here are my thoughts on Ellen:I don't believe that her show was cancelled (at least not entirely) because she came out as a lesbian. I think it was cancelled because from "that kiss" forward the show began to SUCK. Big time.What was once a really hysterical show became "gay this" and "gay that"... every. single. episode was about Ellen and her lesbianism.Hell, I'm a lesbian and I was sick of hearing about it. Where was the balance?? I think that the leap that Ellen took threw her off-balance from that point forward on that show and we all felt it. Though we wanted to support our out celebrity "family" members, let's not kid ourselves that that show had the same punch "pre-kiss".She has, however, found her balance again and is wicked funny on her talk show and I'm glad to see the old Ellen back....

The pet food industry has breached the FDA?s mandate of them because ...
Position Scarcity Rebuttal
2007-03-08 16:37:02 By Robby Wellington ? Staff Writer Both Dalton and Tim Dierkes over at Rotoworld have recently written articles analyzing position scarcity (Dierkes’ article can be found here), and I wanted to weigh in with my own, somewhat different, opinion on things. The true value of a player is determined by how much better his stats are when compared to the statistics of the last player at that position worthy of a starting spot. You should not be comparing Chase Utley’s numbers to the next best second baseman but rather to the worst starting second baseman in your league. Let’s call the aforementioned worst starting player the “baseline player.” For the sake of simplicity I am going to pool all of the supposedly talent rich positions together (corner infield and outfield) and combine shortstop and second base together into middle infield. In a standard 12-team league that starts three middle infielders and nine combined outfielders and corner infielders (note: I...

Challenge and Rebuttal
2007-02-24 06:56:01 I received the following email tonight in reference to two of my postings from this past week (here and here): Just thought I would let you know a few facts that you seem to be unclear on. First: George Washington was NOT a religious person. He was baptized Anglican and, according to his granddaughter, attended church on occasion with his wife, Martha. However, he did not partake of the communion. He was also a freemason, as were many of his colleagues, so take that as you will. Second: the phrase “In GOD We Trust” did not appear on American money until 1861. Third: The video pulled from YouTube is apalling and should have been pulled. If you were any kind of journalist (amateur or otherwise), you would have fact checked this. I hadn’t heard about this, but I will certainly be placing a rebutle on my own website very soon. Please crossreference the video with the actual Koran and you will find that every single quote is taken out of context or mistranslate...
