Media "Bushing it Up" again... |
|
On CNN this morning, they have shown some very short quips from the Kerry speech last night of one to sentences apiece. They have shown these maybe four or five times throughout the course of the morning.
Now, Bush is stumping already this morning. CNN broke away from their regular news and are covering the speech start to finish.
What kind of a chance do we have against the g*d-damned media juggernaut? It's appalling.
Just prior to the cut-away to Shrub's "endless" convention speech, Schneider was going on about how what * said last night (and I quote verbatim) "...makes him immensely more likeable!"
Thanks CNN, thanks to the media for NOTHING! :grr: :puke:

6. Surprise Surprise Russert was WHORING IT UP this morning |

"Best speech of his life"
Democrats are telling me that FINALLY Kerry is fighting back. (showed 10 seconds) of Kerry's rally)
Katie: It appears that the Swift Boat have really hurt him
Tim: President Bush is ahead in 7 national polls by 2 to 5 points (uh Tim Kerry is still at least tied in most polls and WAS ahead by at least that in EVERY national poll) so Kerry is really going to have to come out and fight this.
and so on and so on.........
