At this point both our government and media don't represent most Americans

[Jade Fox]

How bizarre is that?

Since polls show Bush's approval headed south of 40%, the number one
task of the media should be exploring the lack of confidence Americans
have in Bush, and the failed nature of his policies.

The number one task of the other party should be speaking out against
the Bush Administration, and taking stands 180 degrees from those of
the Neocons. That the Democrats aren't doing this indicates they are
unwilling to fight for us even when it would be easy! They have everything
to gain, and nothing to lose.

We need to demand representation. Last time I checked, we were still
a Democracy.

1. Very good points. There seems to be a direct correlation

between the fall of the house of bush, and the lack of testicles on the other side. Kerry seems to have been the first to have lost his, the others seemed to have volunteered theirs, no questions asked. It looks like both sides are in cahoots against the American people. I'm totally disgustipated, no matter what the excuses might be.

3. You would think the Dems would be trampling each other.....

to take advantage of the huge window of opportunity which has opened
up.

Something very strange is going on.

I think the Democrats have bought into the Neocon lie that this country
has taken a huge swing to the right. And its made them unable to
trust what is right before their eyes.

8. Yeah, you'd think they would. But I also believe there's something

strange going on. Something that has nothing to do with democracy.

2. We have become what we hate....

Unpopular elitist government.

4. it's amazing that his popularity has dwindled IN SPITE of

this media obstacle. Imagine what could possibly be if they were doing their job instead of propagandizing for him.

[Jade Fox]

6. I was thinking that same thing last night.....

If we had even a half-way decent media, Bush would be nothing but
a wet smear on the wall of history.

Once again, that Bush is going down inspite of owning the media should
be and indication to the Dems to seize the day!

[Upfront]

5. Could The Reason Be

The Democrats, for the most part, are bought and paid for just like the rethugs? I think that just may be the answer. Sarcasm intended.

[Jade Fox]

7. But they still want the power, right?

Democrats could be fighting, if only for themselves. But they seem like
deers caught in the headlights of history.

9. I share the opinion that something really strange is going on.

I've done research and uncovered all the corruption. But this seems to go beyond that. It's almost as if the entire government has agreed to be silent for some reason, and let Bush spout as he may. The press has decided the same thing.

Could it be because of Fitzgerald, and they're all just waiting for it to hit the fan and they can speak freely again?

Or is it something really sinister that we don't know about yet?

Jeez Louise, the way these guys have been acting, you'd think it was 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers'. I keep expecting to see alien ships in the sky or something.

:shrug:

[Jade Fox]

11. Yes, maybe the Dems are standing back and allowing Bush to self-destruct..

on his own, and trying to avoid distracting attention from it. At least I hope
that's the explaination.

But as you point out, they are doing a little too good of a job doing
nothing in response to Bush.

[high density]

10. Nah, the media is too busy covering stuff up

to protect their profits.

"Golly, look at those gas prices in Europe!!! Man do we have it great here in America!"
