Call a "spade-a spade" -- the Media and shrub are "concerned"
This is not your normal "kiss and tell book or sour grapes".

The content was aired on major media. The book is now number 1 at Amazon and Barnes and Noble...and you have Dem. Candidates getting massive airtime to constantly refer to and acknowledge that "bush lied - people died"

The media has played the Bush protector and spinner for years and helped him get "selected"...the country is awkening to the evil of the controlled media (as Dean has pointed out).

The media can spin...rove can issue his memo's ...but there is a whole year for facts to drip-drip-drip....and the people will be given a choice:

support a liar - who put's at risk your childs life for oil and lies to you about his true intentions

or

Impeach the Liar.

Write and call your congress...energize your candidate. Deal from facts not emotions...facts are facts...bush lied and 10000+ people died.

1. we are close to the "flame of truth" of how we are "conned" and
manpipulated by media and govt...all for the benefit of corporations...

O'neill exposing the truth is the last thing they want.

3. Exposing this lie...
will be taken in the admin, as all of the rest of them. They will not address it, and therefore, seem to solidify their position as the "nobility".

This, like others will pop up and bite them; but the necessity of the Fourth Estate pushing this cannot be understated. These items need to be on the front pages and lead stories, let's see how the media deals with this.

I sure hope they grew a spine over the New Year.

2. I know several TVs in my area switched to the Dem debate after 60 Min
aired. This county voted over 80% bush* in 2000. After 60 Minutes, suddenly there was some serious interest in who else there might be to vote for.

Just a little post from the trenches.
