1. I think it's "Press Coverage Much More Negative On Bush In 2004"
At least, that would be MY pick. It's over on LBN.

4. Today's Biggest Lie
GOD, I agree with the biggest lie being "Press coverage more negative for Bush." First of all, what's the point of even running that story? And secondly, everyone knows the media is so far down on its knees for this (mis)administration it needs aqualungs to breathe!

My second choice is the teaser "Will Condi run for president?" story that's all over the TV news. Yeah, right. "Alien Lizard Woman Takes Over Country."

11. Media Critic Howie does do special quality lies! LOL
Edited on Mon Mar-14-05 11:47 AM by papau
More Negative On Bush ... :-)

how the hell do you measure the ass kissing the Howie Kurtz does

But If Howie says he did less in 04 I suggest he says that because of his poor memory - and not because of any research he has done (God knows the GOP "think tanks" will give him a PR release that says that Bush is being picked on).

:-)

2. House ethics problem is the Dems' fault
"Republicans are now trying, laughably, to portray the impasse as the result of Democrats' refusal to "put the ethics process above partisan politics," as a spokesman for House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.) put it. Democrats have no lack of partisanship on this issue, but the GOP spin is hard to take from the people who rigged the rules and changed the players when they didn't like the result...."

From TODAY'S WP editorial. See seperate post elsewhere in POLITICS.

3. They have so much riding on their "moral superiority"
Damn, if people would just stop and THINK, it would all fall apart!

5. Thinking
It's all group think as they say. If they think it enough, say it enough, perhaps it will come true. How long will America believe the lie?

10. We should start a website called todayslie.com
Here's an idea. Would focus on the worst lie of that day from this administration and archive all the previous ones. I think there's plenty of material to use with bush in office.
