Kerry Non-Story Losing Steam Already

[Bob Geiger]

What stories are ranked above the contrived Kerry flap on CNN's most popular items this hour?

1. Trump cited for 80-foot flag pole
2. Mom accused of duct-taping kids
3. Tough week for Katie Couric
4. Iran offers cash to U.S. tourists

Enough said.

1. Iran offers cash to US tourists?

Where do I sign up?

I think you're right about the steam escaping. It may be too soon, but I haven't heard that this momentous story has affected any polls yet.

3. Heard it was $20 per

somewhere on DU ...

Good. I hope it will be the same for DU.

14. I love your sig line, RobertSeattle.

Way to go!

Btw; I'm a former Seattle/ Bremerton resident.
I'm now deep in Ahnuld country. ;-)

We hope to change that in one week.
Go Phil Angelides!

7. Tony Snow is still trying to spin this as hard as he can.

One reported is asking him why he isn't asking Cheney to appologize for his "mis-statement" about waterboarding last week.

[MADem]

8. Spin, Tony, SPINNNNNNNNNNN!

[karynnj]

23. Good reporter

I assume that misstatement actually hurt the US reputation and the TROOPS hundreds of times more than Kerry's.

"We didn't start the fire".( add musical notes)

But you sure as hell are helping to put it out!


:thumbsup: ;-)

13. It's still all over MSNBC!

Why do you all say it's a dying story? It's all over the cable news. It's the only thing they're covering.

[Kajsa]

16. That's not true for their website.

Their are other "main stories" on their website.
They've got to fill airtime, so they stretch it out.

12. w'happened to Iraq?

[Doctor_J]

15. Hey Bob - off topic, I haven't seen your Friday hate mail the last

couple weeks. I always enjoy it. What's up?

[applegrove]

18. It lost steam last night. I wonder if that pattern will happen again.

[calimary]

20. Oh, dear GOD, from your keyboard to God's eyes.

Oh dear GOD, I hope and pray so.

I can't help this deep, dark, bleak feeling in my gut that we just got SERIOUSLY set back by this. It was the red meat the starving citizens of Dumbfuckistan were pleading for. ANYTHING to remind them why they should cling to the republi-CONS next Tuesday, and I can't help feeling as though Kerry just served it to them, free of charge, on a silver platter with sterling flatware and crystal stemware, AND all the trimmings.

[brooklynite]

21. Were the kids duct taped TO the flagpole?

Inquiring minds want to know...

[a kennedy]

24. You're kidding right......

It's all Kerry all the time, CNN, MSNBC, Fox.....I've turned to C-SPAN our debate for Minnesota governor is on.
