1. That show's been veering right lately

I'll bet Arthur was happy, Jack pissed, and Serena confused.

3. GOD DAMMIT, DON'T POST SPOLIERS IN THREAD HEADERS!

I tivo'd that episode! Shit.

Thanks a lot.

[Wonco_the_Sane]

8. sorry man

I was a bit angry. didn't mean to spoil it...it's still a good episode.

[Bertha Venation]

yeah, I understand the anger

thanks for changing it
sorry I went off on you

[Skittles]

4. yeah, I saw that coming

especially when 9-11 was mentioned in the first 10 minutes.

[KCDem]

5. yeah, pissed me off, too

Usually, I get PO'ed because it's always "guilty". So, otoh, it's nice to see that they're deviating from that (I like a surprise ending). But I didn't want that tonight.

6. Someone got to the producers for sure

Went from the episode where the black cop went on a tirade against Bush to doing an episode where its okay to kill anti war protesters since they're all spoiled rich kids.

7. PLEASE change your thread title

So you don't fuck it up for anyone else.

Thanks, Wonco.

9. What pissed me off was the white detective in the first few minutes of the

show equated the war in Iraq with "911 and three thousand dead people"


:grr:

[KCDem]

12. yeah, that was one thing that pissed me off, too

That AND the fact that the anti-war protester was against the war in Afghanistan. I think most of us here realize that that was far more necessary than the war in Iraq. I'd never protest the former; I would the latter.

[NWHarkness]

10. I found it offensive

Particularly neocon Fred Thompson's remark at the end, that "the people who won't serve in the military are the same people who won't serve on juries".

[anti_shrub]

13. Yeah

I know I always see Republican CEOs on juries.....yech

[Maddy McCall]

14. Yes...

and equating protesters with rich, spoiled brats who borrow their affluent parents' SUV to go to protests.

[KCDem]

16. although, that could work both ways.

Who wouldn't serve in the military?:

A) anti-war Dems, who are also generally able to get off jury duty because we're educated enough to do so, and,

B) pro-war rich Republicans: Delay, Bush, Cheney, Limbaugh, etc. etc, who also get off jury duty.

You've got people of both persuasions.

[Bertha Venation]

11. Oh, thank you, Wonco. Thank you so much. eom.

[Wonco_the_Sane]

15. sorry for spoiler all

I don't post a lot and was surprised by popularity and all. I am a big fan of the show+ time slot

[Maddy McCall]

17. Edit your header so that this doesn't get locked

Just change the title to "LAW and ORDER: SPOILERS INSIDE"

and then put "not guilty" inside the thread. It isn't fair to post spoilers in the title because west coasters haven't seen it yet.

[Maddy McCall]

18. nevermind. Good job.

[Wonco_the_Sane]

19. New thought

This may be a big DUH moment...could they have wrote this episode for us on the left as a wake up call?

[Maddy McCall]

20. Did you see it?

I don't think so.

[Wonco_the_Sane]

21. It just seemed so obviously bad.

Added lines for right wing were almost talking points. Just a thought, maybe rile up the troops? It's just not usually like that.

[burrowowl]

22. The episode showed a

'slice of life' in America. It showed that emotivity takes over control of reason and of how the law is written.
It also showed that there are 'excuses' for behavior, not normally excused, under the propaganda of war.
It was very interesting.
The verdict only underlined how things get bad under a 'war' president and the tribe follows.

[Arbustosux]

23. Did you notice the poster in the dead kid's room?

it read:

Drop Bush

Not Bombs

made me smile....:)
