I've only been switching the channels for 1/2 hour, but picked up the talking point
of the day already.

Hillery made no mention of Obama's experience and readiness for the job in her speech so she obviously doesn't believe he has what it takes.

1. Turn off the talking heads. They're just gasbags. Arrogant, blowhard, corporate whores.

9. Agreed. I dabble in conversations on other boards
and it's nice to know where they get their thoughts though. ;)

2. That was the spin
from ABC last night. The night before it was something else.
They are like spoiled children. Never satisfied. Screw 'em.

5. Propaganda has to be coordinated! Protect your mind, and turn it off!
That's why I did not look at television for 17 years!

6. We are winning, and they believe they can turn it around by distortion

IT WON'T WORK

and after the debates Ohio will turn in our direction also

NOTE, that there are red states such as North Carolina that have never been this close

We are right where we want to be at this time

7. That's a talking point direct from the republican party.
The fact that it's being peddled by the media is proof how much they live up the repub's asses.

10. The Word "Concern" Should Be Banned
I'm soooooooo sick of all these pundits with their "concerns"...especially when they share it with a paid-for repugnican shill or other bubbleworld villager.

Today's meme...straight from the desk of Roger Ailes...is how the Democrats haven't been fighting back "hard enough". Their proof? James Carville. If he says it, it must be true...he has no conflicts does he? :sarcasm:

I don't need the corporate media to tell my their concerns, I expect them to report news. Yeah, right!

11. I'm going to have to watch CSPAN tonight
Last night, I wanted to put a screwdriver through Charlie Gibson's eye, and that wouldn't have done my TV any good.
