So mccain is sending a delegation to Georgia. Gee, who is the president? |
|
Why isn't the media jumping up and down saying mccain is interfering in matters that should be dealt with the White House? http://talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/208358.php

Actually it's not more important, just more media nonfeasance.

2. If McThuselah was black, they'd call him presumptuous |
|
But the media would really like to call him uppity.

3. Isn't he sending Lieberman and Lindsey Graham? |
|
We'll be lucky if Russia's not fighting Georgia, the Ukraine and Serbia by the time they get done.

7. Because the mainstream media is full of shit. |
|
They blindly hop on to any theme that Rovian fuelled instigators decide to employ. He's radical, he's elitist, he's naive, he's 'fill in talking point'.
The pubs have the power to shape the message all the while complaining that the Dems are shaping and distorting the message i.e. 'liberal media'.

12. I thought it was Saakashvili (sp?) but yeah, Biden was requested |
|
earlier this week, and has the SFRC chairmanship so it makes sense.
I think he's going to get there and back before Lindsay and JoeLie too. They're gonna look like tourists in a war zone.
