One more reason for Cheney to choose Foxnews

Fox News Falsely Claims Daschle and Gephardt Are Registered Lobbyists
Fox News published a story this week headlined, “Premium Placed on Lobbyists Who Served in Congress.” The first two paragraphs:

What do Tom Daschle, John Ashcroft, Fred Thompson, J.C. Watts, Zell Miller and Dick Gephardt have in common these days?

They are all former members of Congress — and they are all registered lobbyists.

Actually, neither Gephardt nor Daschle (who is a fellow at the Center for American Progress) are or have been registered lobbyists since they left office, according to the U.S. Senate’s official database. We called both their offices to confirm the Senate’s records........

No "balance"? Presto!

1. The reason Cheney watches Fox...

...is because he's making sure that all of his employees are catapulting the propaganda with flair.

It's the same reason they all consort with rightwinghateradio too. They need to make sure that all of their mandated talking
points are being blasted to the masses.

I'm utterly amazed at their synchronization this week. They're all attacking the media and saying the same, exact thing.

Their blatant and obvious propaganda techniques are insulting to every American. Too bad 35 percent of this country is
too stupid to realize that they are being insulted.

2. Semi O.T., but my problem with Daschle...

both his wife and his daughter-in-law were registered lobbyists while he was sitting in the Senate, as Minority Leader. I have a real problem with that, not just him but with any other legislator, regardless of Party. It goes on alot.
