Poll: Will a Paywall at U-T San Diego Improve Company’s Bottom Line?

Tom Yarnall June 24, 2012 at 07:40 pm

I think your correction needs a correction Doug. Take a nap and get rejuvenated.
My last word.

Robert Paulson June 24, 2012 at 08:01 pm

As long as you are (trying) to educate yourself you might do some research onExecutive Orders" before you make yourself look stupid in front of everyone with your previous comment (opinion). "...Democrat (sic) President using an executive order to give amnesty to illegals which by passes(sic) the law of the land just as dictators do". LOL, you need to stop listening to hate radio. It's contaminating your mind.

Doug Curlee June 24, 2012 at 08:20 pm

tpm..
i wish i could believe that..:-) doug

Tom Yarnall June 24, 2012 at 09:51 pm

I know you are intellectually superior, but I prefer to have discourse with someone who has a creative thought every once in awhile and is sometimes able to respond with logic. Since you do neither and only respond with cheap shots I will make this my last word.
You may want to consult your mentor, Doug Curlee, who does try to keep things civil with his arguments even though they are many times flawed from my prospective.

Komfort June 24, 2012 at 10:55 pm

I am done with hate radio! Robert, please explain what the President did regarding amnesty.
Thanks in advance.

If they want to charge for their stories, they better darn well hire some proofreaders and someone who has some idea what they are doing about writing headlines!

Touche!

Based on your reply - you sure didn't read my comment correctly! If one cannot tolerate UT, why in sanity's name would they be interested in GBTV? The guy has to pay himself to even
stay on air......BTW - I get my feed from the tack store.

I always love a good Tom Yarnell debate. He's got to be one of the sharpest guys writing comments out there. I don't always agree with his posts, but at least he keeps it interesting.

Tom Yarnall June 25, 2012 at 06:25 pm

Clariece, to say you made my day would be an understatement.
I'm not sure many would agree with you. In fact I am in my shelter waiting for the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Thank you.

Clariece Tally June 25, 2012 at 07:56 pm

I write from a similar location some days as well.

Robert Paulson June 26, 2012 at 12:50 am

@gerrie jackson - my GBTV post was in response to Tom Yarnall, not you. Review the thread

Robert Paulson June 26, 2012 at 01:00 am

I don't have to explain it to you. President Obama did an excellent job of explaining it. It was Tom Yarnall that said. "Democrat President using an executive order to give amnesty to illegals which by passes the law of the land just as dictators do". I suggested he study up on "Executive Orders". Perhaps you should join him in research.

Does Barack Obama contradict Himself?
"With respect to the notion that I can just suspend deportations through executive order, that’s just not the case, because there are laws on the books that Congress has passed....The executive branch’s job is to enforce and implement those laws. And then the judiciary has to interpret the laws. There are enough laws on the books by Congress that are very clear in terms of how we have to enforce our immigration system that for me to simply through executive order ignore those congressional mandates would not conform with my appropriate role as President." http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2011/03/28/remarks-president-univision-town-hall Very well then He contradicts Himself: "“I think we will determine over the next several weeks how this administration (President Bush) responds to the very appropriate call by Patrick Leahy, the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, to have these individuals come in and testify, Obama said in 2007. “There‘s been a tendency on the part of this administration to try to hide behind executive privilege every time there’s something a little shaky that’s taken place. I think the administration would be best served by coming clean on this." http://www.theblaze.com/stories/president-obama-in-2007-bush-hiding-behind-executive-privilege/ Barack Obama is large, He contains multitudes: http://snipurl.com/24331sq

@Robert Paulson - Now, that makes more sense! Thx 4 the follow up.....

Robert Paulson June 26, 2012 at 03:59 am

I agree. It's not about right or left it'a about quality. The UT sucks. The result is that after decades of bad journalism, San Diego is mediocre in so many ways. The weather is great and the beaches are wonderful but that is an accident of geography. The tourist attractions are plentiful but that is exploitive commerce, $$$$$. The politics are corrupt and always have been. Culture is almost nonexistent. And Tom Yarnall is an idiot. Thing I know doesn't know much. He spends all of his time punching keywords into Youtube looking to justify his opinions. Not very original. He could just save himself some time and quote Rush Limbaugh. Then he could call himself Things I Learned from Rush Limbaugh. These guys stopped growing intellectually after they left high school. They would probably still have flat top haircuts if they still had hair. Trying to converse with them is a waste of time and energy. Why bother?

Things I Learned June 26, 2012 at 11:36 am

Hey remember when liberals blamed Sarah Palin's mind rays for almost getting Gabbie Giffords killed and called for a new civility and the other side said this was just another one-sided attempt to shut down speech that liberals will drop like a hot potato the second they think their god king is crashing to earth and liberals said no it isn't you h8ey h8ters and then Robert Paulson called Tom Yarnall an idiot?
And hey remember when old men used to make fun of young men who let their hair grow and dismiss their opinions for such a shallow reason and now Robert Paulson is making fun of people because they cut their hair if they have any because it is totally cool to make fun of people's physical appearance that they can't control? And hey hey remember when we weren't supposed to make phallonormative assumptions that privilege male privilege? We should not support our opinions with evidence. Rush Limbaugh has issued his marching orders regarding the Union Tribune's pay wall. The politics is plural.

Hey remember when Conservatives blamed Barack Obama's Socialism for making the world come to an end and called for him to renew the Bush tax cuts for the richest 1% in the country and the other side said this was just another one-sided attempt to destroy the country, that liberals will continue to tell the truth about the Fascists as long as their President is trying to help us recover from the devastatingly destructive economic policies from the previous administration and liberals said the Republicans don't want any thing to get better and make Obama look good, that they are ONLY interested in making certain he does not have a second term and they have all of their h8ters, racists, bigots, homophobes, jingoists and hate radio pigs in full attack mode against the President, then Robert Paulson watched as Tom Yarnall's own words made him out to be an idiot?
And hey, see when Things I Wish I Knew makes fun of anyone he disagrees with and dismisses their opinions for such a shallow reason and now Tom Yarnall is making fun of Doug because he only reads the sports and comics of a terrible news paper and it's totally cool to make fun of people's saying they have a closed mind and are shallow for not reading trash ? And hey hey remember when we weren't supposed to use big words like phallonormative to make people think you actually have a brain when there is NO relevant reason to use that word other than to further inflate his already excessive ego.

Robert Paulson June 26, 2012 at 05:15 pm

This is a continuation of my previous comment:
I can support all of my opinions with evidence and Rush Limbaugh is still a morbidly obese drug abusing pig and has nothing to say about the Union Tribune's pay wall. Politics is singular when discussing the subject but is plural when discussing political views. Now please return to YouTube to aid you in forming your impending response because you can't let anything go without inserting your pitiful two-cents worth even though no one cares. Pardon me while I go wipe the Things I Know off of my baby's ass and change his diaper and throw the Things I Know in the trash.

Things I Learned June 26, 2012 at 05:27 pm

I'm sorry, but I don't remember that.

Things I Learned June 26, 2012 at 05:51 pm

Hey remember when two cents was worth something before Barack Obama and the Federal Reserve quantitatively eased our money into worthlessness and then Robert Paulson said that everything he knew would fit in his baby diaper and the second sentence of the second paragraph of his first response to an opinion that nobody cares about had two pronoun antecedent disagreements?

Robert Paulson June 26, 2012 at 06:18 pm

I'm sorry, but I don't remember that. All I remember is that you are an arrogant pr**k and this blog deserves you. And Kevin, if the show fits...

It appears Robert Paulson does not know what the President said.

Joe St. Lucas June 26, 2012 at 07:24 pm

I like Logan Jenkins column.

Robert Paulson June 26, 2012 at 07:43 pm

I know exactly what he said and I think it's really great that you all are crazy and pissed off about it. In spite of everything you are doing to destroy the man you have failed. You can't stop him no matter what you do, he will perform an end run around your lazy ignorant butts. He will never come close to the lies and deceit of Bush and Cheney and regardless of the hate mongers BS about the constitutionality of his actions, Bush and Cheney wiped their asses with the Constitution. That's reality and you cant revise history even though you try desperately to do so. I don't know why I waste my time with you hateful idiots. There is no hope for you. You little boys deserve each other. Enjoy yourself, kissing each others asses. You need the mutual support. Where's Jerry Sandusky when we need him?

Robert Paulson June 26, 2012 at 09:01 pm

He adds a little class to an otherwise classless newspaper.

Komfort June 26, 2012 at 09:09 pm

It appears Robert Paulson does not know how to explain what that President said.
