Did I miss something? CNN & MSNBC both showing Obama rally live!!
Have they been showing extended coverage of McCain/Palin and are trying to be 'balanced'? Since when do they care about real balance? Could the Nielsen ratings that came out yesterday be awakening their $en$e of civic re$pon$ibility?

3. Not bad.
They are balancing out their coverage of the McCreepy-Palin rally from earlier.

5. MSNBC just cut away.
Too many specifics for them I guess. They were expecting a fluff rally like the McCain-Palin rally earlier that was exactly like the one yesterday.

9. FUCK YOU MSNBC!!!

Fucking Julius Streicher, Joseph Goebbels pieces of shit.

Couldn't get rid of the Obama speech fast enough so they can inflict their fucking Doc Block prison shows on us. Better to crank up our fear level by showing freaks committing crimes than to let us hear Obama.

But of course, they're more than happy to broadcast the entirety of McCain's and Palin's mess of concatenated neocon bible-thumping talking points...

I hope those fuckers get executed, just like Julius Streicher.
