SLAM (exclamation point)

News networks are given to exaggeration, I fell this is in order to
make the government fed drivel they parrot sound more important. A
great example of this is how if a candidate or politicians says
something that confronts an opponents stated ideology, that becomes a
"slam." We've all heard this, CNN is especially guilty of crap like
this. "Barack Obama SLAMS John McCain's energy proposals"

Now I don't know about you, or all these CNN affectionados out there
but to me a "Slam" has to be something more than a premeditated
difference in policies. A slam has to be an insult something tasty
and funny that someone throws down to accentuate their point.

"John McCain's energy proposal is about as energetic as a P.O.W." SLAM

"Barack Obama's foreign relations experience is about as useful as a
black man at show-up-on-time party." SLAM

the shit we hear is just a polite conversation with everybody
listening. These people are always, "well i respect my colleague but
disagree" There's no slamming going on, maybe if Jesse Ventura was
around (ugh).

If there is such a soft definition of "Slam" A debate is going to boil
down to a game of fucking dozens.

"Barack's Momma can't run the county"
"Your momma is dead Mr. McCain"
"That man is a motherucker with a whack ass forign policy"
"This man is so old he just updated his house with a telegraph"

and so on...
