FINALLY the "Mainstream" Media Gets It - This Stuff... (Yahoo Screen Save)
... is important to cover, duh. Whatever a President is saying - Terrorism! Freedom! 9/11! Freedom! Blah, Blah, Blah - It is important to be skeptical, to stand back and take a critical eye. Easy to do now that the guy is unpopular, but it was ALWAYS the same true journalistic standard (Ask Helen Thomas).

AP, Reuters, NY Sun - all on one Yahoo News Page:

16. I got thru
15 seconds of it. Stuck on stupid, little nyah-nyah-nyah rhyme lyrics, sounds like and performed as a high school garage band. "Ted Kennedy, wrong. Cindy Sheehan, wrong. Zell Miller, right," as part of the chorus.:boring:

5. "Bush Was Right" by the Right Brothers
A really dumb song, but because it takes the "edgy" "pro-Bush" angle, it's making a splash in the MSM for some reason.

zZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzz

Whatever.

9. I saw that a long time ago. It isn't new, is it? I listened to 10
seconds and turned it off. You have to have the kool-aid to buy that crap.

8. Television. Television is the real test. Print smacked down the

10. The best part is...
... apparently the Repugs intend to campaign on the issue that is they lose control of Congress, it would mean Bush's impeachment. Wouldn't it be great to have both parties campaigning on that same issue! :rofl:
