(I still want to know whether aldo thinks that Moore should be put on trial for treason or not, even if he doesn't believe in the death penalty for it)
― caitlin (caitlin), Sunday, 31 October 2004 16:47 (nineteen years ago) link
However, if Bush Jr and Moore both believe they are in that kind of war, as they have both stated at different times that they believe they are, then an accusation of treason may well apply.

aldo, is your position here essentially (pick one): a) that (the current popular definition of) 'neo-conservatism' is a myth, or b) that neo-conservatism is comprised of a worldview indistinguishable from that shared by any recent american administration.
(i think both options are misguided).
― m. (mitchlnw), Sunday, 31 October 2004 19:00 (nineteen years ago) link
Although to give me two options you both think are misguided and force me to pick one is exceptionally bad form, if I have to pick one I'll say b). It's far more polarised than I'd describe it, however. I think it's near-indistinguishable to those outside America, and there are differences on internal (i.e. within the territory of the US) policies.

I am glad you are not going to the FAP, because I like you a lot already, the way you are.

QT is the highlight of my week, some weeks.
My friend Emmie T was in a QT audience last year, and I was very envious. She was only shown for a brief second, but she was making an amusing face.

Sometimes I watch QT with RJG, and we tut and laugh at it together. And I like This Week almost as much. Tonight I'm going to watch the Lord Lucan program then Frank Skinner then QT then This Week, and I will probably enjoy it all very much except I don't really like Frank Skinner.

Frank Skinner is bad! But I kind of enjoyed seeing Rufus Wainwright on his show.
Yet, I am glad that you enjoy it. Maybe RJG's presence is key to the pleasure? So often is that true.
― the bluefox, Thursday, 11 November 2004 17:14 (nineteen years ago) link
This Week, in particular, is often quite funny.

How many weeks has Diane Abbot been wearing that leopard print top? At least three. I wonder if I'm the only one to notice.

Rosie, you don't have to use the word 'slaughter' in every answer. It's not called 'Slaughter Time'.
I thought it was a very poor programme, more or less on a par with 'House Doctor' or 'Beat the Burglar'.
The only thing I enjoyed was the feisty Scots answering Dimbleby back.
There weren't many people in the audience.
Ian, the Declaration of Human Rights pointmaker: I thought he might be Ally C. He looked like One Of Us.
I gave up half way through 'This Week'. Diane Abbot looked very tired. The righthand side of Portillo's hair is quite admirable, but the lefthand side really is a disappointment.
The person I liked most was Don McCullin. I liked the way he keeps his photgraphs in some kind of tissue paper sleeves. He seemed very sad.
