    The object of a TV network is to make money through advertising. In order to do that it must attract enough viewers to appeal to advertisers. What MSNBC has done is t propagate an agenda that no one wants to bother with. They have been in the business long enough to know better. Plus they had the example of the Al Gore debacle. I guess that their agenda has rendered them stupid.

    BSNBC gave leftist Bush haters a place to vent in 2001-2008. With their "guy" in office since 2009, they have less reason to watch. The execs at this pseudo-network must be secretly hoping for a GOP victory in the next Presidential election.

      they must think that it's a pendulum swing thing,
      but instead it's the inexorable decline of the nation
      which they no longer supervise. . even their "star"
      commentator Sharpton is chasing ambulances now.
      the interstitial subversives in the big cities, primarily,
      are leading now, silently puppeted by Valerie and BHO. -- j

        One point plus for use of 'interstitial' in normal conversation. Good morning.

          fun word -- learned it in metallurgy. . . . things like
          the alloying atoms in knife blade steel occupy the
          spaces between iron atoms -- chrome, vanadium,
          molybdenum and nickel, etc. . . makes the crystal
          lattice get all screwed up, so that cracks can't form
          and lead to fractures. . so it's stronger stuff. -- j

          p.s. good morning back at'cha, california!!!

            It is also used in medicine to refer to the goo between cells or tissues.

            Speaking of interstitial alloys...I tried to make a piece of pattern welded steel once. It looked like a piece of mouse-eaten cheese (OK - grey cheese, but you get the idea). I still have not given up on making mokume-gane someday, though.

                Nice images. I have seen some lovely work. Any moment I get a 'round tuit', I will try playing with it. From what I gather, the easiest way to start is to silver solder thin sheets of brass and copper together; anneal; twist; pound flat...

                I expect a disaster on first try, but it is worth a shot.

                  let's see ... oven soldering with no oxygen in the

                    You can (supposedly) do it with a welder or a hot torch. 'Silver soldier' the brass and copper pieces together; heat the whole block; quench it in water (which anneals non-ferrous). Then you get to try to twist the whole piece, re-anneal, hammer flat, etc.

                    I can see it in my brain, but I suspect that there is a huge gap between what I imagine and reality.

      We watch movies in the evening with the kids, but when I started crying every night watching the news, I was done. I would like to unplug completely but until the little one starts reading, kinda stuck with it. Just 1 more year!

          Thanks! . I ran a saab 900 turbo for years, thinking
          that its 2 liter engine was a bit like a formula one.
          well, what an F1 used to be. -- j

            Ya, Saab 900 probably the best car they ever built. Too bad the company went out of business. I understand Ford gave them money to build cheap cars and they would have no part of it. Going Galt was better than going Ford I suppose.

              I ran that car for everything -- commuting to work, carrying
              the kilowatt DJ system {as far away as 700 miles],
              dating, everything -- for less than $200 per month
              including gas and oil and insurance. . whatta car!!! -- j

                They were more rugged than Volvo. Top Gear UK idid a segment on them a few years ago (can't remember what season) and the car they abused keep running. Probably the safest product car ever built.

                  mine is an 83, and the original engine ran for about
                  a quarter-million miles before #4 exhaust valve lost
                  its head in the top of the cylinder. . that engine would
                  spin its turbo up to a crescendo and pull the car like
                  a rocket engine. . put an 84 engine in to replace it,
                  and it's a wimp -- even with its turbocharger. . now,
                  she's out in the driveway resting, next to the 2006
                  baja turbo, another special machine. -- j

    One does not have to read much further than "Atlas Shrugged" and Orwell's "1984" to understand the ultimate goal of the extreme liberal left. News must be controlled, slanted and distorted to support the prevailing ideological aspirations of those in whose only goal is to subjugate the populace . MSNBC is a failed attempt to put a dominant left leaning spin on news. It fails because there are still enough people with their moral compass intact to discern fact from fiction.

      Just realize that the enemy includes those who promise to defend liberty but continue to support statism.
      The reason for being for the congress and the government is to defend the property of the people. By condoning and assisting in the transfer of property from the rightful owners they fail in their primary legitimate role for existence. All those who do this are the enemy and must be treated as the enemy.

    Is it still there? I never watch/listen to it at all. I get tired of having to dissect the hidden agendas from the real truth.
