I often apply it to my life in certain ways.
It comes from Star Trek 3 The Search for Spock
It happens after the Enterprise self destructs.
Kirk: My God, Bones, what have I done?
McCoy: What you had to do; what you always do: turn death into a fighting chance to live.
Just thought I would share that!!!

1856 Deaths, 13877 Wounded
Mr. President
There is something that me and my brother, who is a conservative, agree on, you are being badly misadvised.
I think you should meet with Cindy Sheenan one on one, It wouldn’t hurt!!!! It would be a great PR Move.
Meet with her, Hug Her, Cry with her. Why not???? Because someone in your camp is deceiving you and telling you
To not go near her. I think its Karl Rove, I mean he already has hurt your administration by leaking. If she truly wants to just
Yell at you, let her do it. Then kill her with kindness, tell her “I feel your pain”. Its worked before!!! Every family that has lost a loved one in this war deserves an audience with you. It was your choice to go in. I hear Rush and O’lielly saying not to do it because what she is doing is treason. Its not treason, its called finding out why your loved one died. Yes I do support Ms Sheenan and every family that has lost a loved one in this conflict. America is hurting Mr. President, 1856 lives have been lost due to your decision to invade. Its time for you to step up and be the compassionate conservative you claim to be. Also its time for you to find who is deceiving you and get rid of them!!!

Fact:"O'Reilly actually grew up in Westbury, Long Island, a middle-class suburb a few miles from Levittown, according to his mother Angela, who still lives in the Levitt-built house Bill grew up in. His late father, William O'Reilly Sr., was a currency accountant with Caltex, an oil company; Angela 'Ann' O'Reilly was a homemaker who also worked as a physical therapist...Both [O'Reilly] children attended private school, and the family sent Bill to Marist College, a private college in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., as well as the University of London for a year, without financial aid. - Washington Post, 12/13/00"

Quote/Claim:"[The United States gives] far and away more tax money to foreign countries than anyone…nobody else even comes close. [Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them, by Al Franken]"
Fact:"By a narrow margin, the U.S. gives more money in raw dollars than any other nation, although for a decade before 2001 Japan gave more. As a percentage of Gross National Product, however, the U.S. ranks last among the world’s wealthier countries (at about 0.1%). Comments like O’Reilly’s may contribute to the widespread misconceptions of the majority of Americans, who believe, according to a poll conducted by the University of Maryland, that the U.S. spends an average of 24% of its annual budget on foreign aid. - Council on Foreign Relations, 2004; USA Today, 12/4/01"

[Source: TV transcript, reprinted partially in Al Franken's Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them]"

Date: 2/4/2003
Quote/Claim:"First of all, I never do anything tacitly. I do things directly. I simply said I wasn't going to drink Pepsi while that guy was on their payroll. No boycott was ever mentioned by me. [Show transcript, partially reprinted in Slate]"

Fact:"I say Fox leans a little right. - Bill O'Reilly, 2/11/03Solid majorities of both national and local journalists say there is an organization that they think is especially conservative - and for most the organization that comes to mind is Fox News Channel. Fully 69% of national journalists cited Fox News Channel as especially conservative in its coverage. - PEW Journalism Survey, 2004 On 10/30/03 a former Fox News employee, Charlie Reina, sent a letter to media watchdog site Romenesko citing the conservative hold Fox News keeps over its broadcasts.

DJ!! Spin That Sh*t!!!!!
Chuckw thought about it a lot and maybe I need to take some of these far right wingers to task.
To Borrow from my favorite Talk Show Host Al Franken, Lies and the lying liars who tell them.
We will start with Rush Limbaugh:
Mr. Limbaugh Quoted the following:
"Have you seen the ratings for Friday's Nightline where they flashed the pictures of the military dead from Iraq? They are down over the previous week, significantly so, in the major markets. Imagine that. [Source: Rush Limbaugh Web site]"
Fact:"The broadcast had a 4.4 household rating in the nation's largest media markets, according to Nielsen Media Research. Although numbers for the entire country won't be available until later this week, that preliminary measurement was up 22 percent from the previous Friday and was 29 percent more than other Nightline telecasts last week. - CNN, 5/4/04"
Mr. Limbaugh:"Ladies and gentlemen, we now know why there is this institutional opposition to low tax rates in the liberal wing of the Democratic Party. It's because [low tax rates] are biblical in nature and in root. When you can trace the lowering of tax rates on grain from 90 percent to 20 percent giving seven fat years during the days of Pharaoh in Egypt, why then you are tracing the roots of lower taxes and rising prosperity to religion.... You can trace individual prosperity, economic growth back to the Bible, the Old Testament. Isn't it amazing?" Fact:"Genesis 41 is about the wisdom of instituting taxes, not cutting them. After Pharaoh had a dream that prophesied seven fat years to be followed by seven lean years, Joseph advised him to appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years...and lay up corn under the hands of Pharaoh. In other words, a 20 percent tax on the grain harvest would put aside food for use during the famine. Pharaoh took Joseph's advice, and Egypt avoided hunger during the famine. - Genesis, Bible"
Mr. Limbaugh hypocritically Says:"I avoided the subject of drugs on this program. [Source: Fair.org]" Fact:"Drug use, some might say, is destroying this country. If people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up [to jail]. - Rush Limbaugh, 10/5/93"
Mr. Limbaugh:
"But more importantly, the idea that this guy -- who didn't say anything about terrorism in his presidential campaign. For all you people that want to talk about how the Clinton administration was really tough on terrorism, go back to the 2000 campaign. Find me where Gore said anything about it. he didn't. It wasn't a big deal. [Source: Stop the Tape, show transcript]" Fact:"According to the vice president, in addition to the traditional security concerns with war, peace and alliances, his administration would expand its security focus to include not only terrorism and the international drug trade, but also corruption abroad, pandemics, ecological problems, empowerment of third-world women and children, ratification of the Kyoto Agreement, and expanding access to the Internet. - Project for the New American Century's summary of Al Gore's 5/5/00 speech"
Let me ask you people that listen to him this question.
I have proven in this article that Rush Lies to you!
Do you feel misled after reading this????
If not then you are a fool.
( There are certain people that are excluded from that comment, You know who you are)

Have the Terrorists really succeeded?? Have they really Divided Us????
My Heart Breaks Just Reading this, This Political Infighting has to Stop and maybe we will get more done.
This is just the way Chuckw feels, Don’t Demonize me just because I am a Liberal, Get to know me and ya might find we agree on a few things.
More examples of Bashing I have seen.
AOL Chatroom From the Left.
KGreg999: SpeedRacer<-----like 99% of Democrats, has NO IDEA what the Democratic party stands for
KGreg999: Democratic Party<----lost its way, has no idea what it stands for, other than Bush Bashing
KGreg999: CM - thanks for admitting you losers are just reactive to Bush, you have no ideas of your own!
Conservative Bullying and Bashing instead of Debating Ideas.
