O'neill- "Media" react? With Rovian "talking points"....not one for truth
This is a media sellout.
This is a clear example of corporate owned media control.
This is not "liberal media".
This is not searching for "truth".
etc....you get the point


More important...what is it?

They don't give a shit about you...and keeping any sense of "check and balances" to government repsonsibilty.

This is why they don't talk about the deficit, social secuirty, medicare reform bill scam...because they can't.

They have "no social contract with Americans"....and have thus given permission for your sons and daughters to give their lives for "thugs, thieves and liars"

This is what happens when you have corporate media --- this needs to change...they need to be held accountable -- they are just as guilty.

And...if we had a Deocratic Senator...who grew a pair of xxxx...and would come out and say it...they would be a "hero" too!


Better yet...let's ask Paul O'Neill if he can do this as well for the Democrats!!!!!

2. RIght out of the chute this morning on CNN....
Little Soledad O'Brien has Jeffrey Toobin on the couch asking the burning question: "Just how much trouble could Paul O'Neill be in for having or revealing 'secret' documents?"

See, the diversion is on. No question about whether his accusations have any substance or validity, but rather, just another smear tactic by the "liberal" media to discredit any accuser of the Almighty BushCo. :grr:

3. And if indeed, he DOES have "secret" documents....
Who let him take them with him? Hmmmmmmm???
Didn't they say he showed declassified documents? I thought I heard them say he had DECLASSIFIED documents?

4. Look out for Panthers!
When the O'Neill story was first breaking, Fox had in-depth stories every 1/2 hour about the terrible danger of being attacked by mountain lions! My gosh! It's as scary as mad calf disease and Michael Jackson! Maybe we better be giving up this democratic stuff! bush is the only man who can save us from mountain lyings, angry cows, and Michael!!!!

5. Isn't it interesting...
How anyone exposing the Bush White House jumps right on the Rove spin track within a matter of days? Rove's not even creative about it, either. It's like O'Neill is repeating exactly what Rove told him to. I guess this nation's largest mafia set O'Neill straight about what happens to people who dare tell the truth. He probably didn't want him and his family to be Wellstoned.
