Do you have a DVR? If so did it change how you watch tv?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 7 Feb 10

I never thought DVR would change my viewing habits as much as it had. The combination of recording shows without having the right tape in and programming the nasty VCR with being able to pause, rewind, skip commercials when you...

Is a politician's mouth their worst enemy? Obama's comments . . .

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 25 Jul 09

Despite how good he is in front of a camera, Obama opened his mouth on the subject of Dr. Gates' recent false arrest without carefully considering the power of a President's words. His quick work to cover the blunder was more in...

So little faith in our fellow man?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 4 Jul 09

(and woman, of course) Discussions of morality, religion and especially politics seem to regularly turn against the media for bias toward one story or another. I understand how any side in any debate can believe the media is...

Politics as usual: Palin asked to take one for the team?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 4 Jul 09

Sure it is a bit of conspiracy theory, but what fun is politics without trying to find everyone's motives? Does anybody believe the timing of Palin's announcement comes at too convenient a time? Did the Republican Party help...

Unfair star rating and mean people, Why bother?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 2 Jul 09

I find this extremely telling. I was going to give positive rating to a couple people who currently have really low star rankings because I thought they were giving me a good debate. Today I found MY star number had dropped,...

Is Obama the Democrat's Reagan?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 30 Jun 09

Alot of the complaining I hear from anti-Obamanitors seems to focus on the "problem" that the nation is so obsessed with his charm and personality that too many of us are overlooking his programs. As a voter who was smitten by...

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 30 Jun 09

I think it will make sense to offset my internet cost a little. How do you all plan on spending your payout? Savings? Present for someone? Something nice for yourself?

Do you feel public school children who do not go to church are missing out?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 28 Jun 09

Missing out on a big part of the youth education that is needed in this country? A big deal has been made about America's schools falling so far behind the rest of the "modern world", does a lack of religion in the classrooms have...

Is the collective news media focusing too much on Michael Jackson's death?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 27 Jun 09

Celebrate/Mourn Michael, but move on! The news media and entertainment outlets are dedicating entirely too much time to Michael Jackson's death. This may end up being the best known personality who's death they ever cover, but...

Do you respond more to logical or emotional arguments?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 23 Jun 09

I realize it does not have to be absolute: Each of us can be swayed by different levels of emotion and logic even within the same debate. Do you have a tendency to lean one way or another, though? Is it generally easier for...

Can we stop with the "more media attention than" discussions?

heathcliff @heathcliff (1415) • United States 21 Jun 09

Since long before the last Presidential Primaries, a great deal of political posts here on MyLot have focused on one side or the other complaining about media attention for a given issue. Can't we clear this up right...
