We know for a FACT that practically every media outlet- either flat-out LIED about Iraq, or took "inside" information from Rove as fact, while ignoring information to the contrary...
My question is- why are so many DUers NOT applying this same skeptcism to hit pieces/lies about our DEM candidates?
A good example is the one that made the rounds about Clark being connected to Rove- all LIES of course- see www.mediawhoresonline.com.
Folks- it is getting ridiculous- these guys will flat-out LIE about anything- and we need to assume that ALL anti-DEM media is FALSE until proven fact...
I repeat: We need to assume that ALL anti-DEM media is FALSE until proven fact...

| 1. I am, and I'm particularly hostile about it too |
|
I despise a betrayer a hell of a lot more than I do a sworn enemy. As far as I'm concerned, there are 80 Repukes in the Senate.

| 4. Those of us who followed Kerry for years know that. |
|
The GOP operatives in the media put the memes out on Kerry over 30 years ago and now they are accepted newsroom myths.

Not just the outright lies, but also the inaccuracies and the half-truths and the spin.
