32. You're totally discounting the lying press, distorting everything
During the campaign, every article and every TV news segment used the expression "Governor Bush meant to say" and they've been doing it all while he's been (p)resident. They did it again today to correct his misstatement (lie) that Iraq kicked out the inspectors.

They cover for Bush at every turn. They twist and distort or ignore the truth. So, I guess on that basis, you can say that truth doesn't count. They ignore it. They bury it.

And about the issues, yeah we do win on the issues and that's why Bush appropriated our issues during his lying campaign in 2000. Now everyone can see from his policies that he was lying, if the press doesn't spin them into oblivion. That is a very big "if".
