Now THIS is an SOTU rebuttal

"President Bush can get away with such misleading rhetoric because he knows the mainstream media and the Democratic Party will allow him to do so. Unless the American public demands greater accountability from the news media and the Democratic Party leadership, George W. Bush will have four more opportunities to make similar State of the Union speeches."

1. I disagree.

If this was read after the SOTUS people would tune out after 50 words.

3. True, it's hard to reread Bu$h's crap

but it puts the notes in context.

I think, too, if Professor Zunes presented the info live in a back and forth interview on CNN or NBC, it would be more likely to hold the average joe's interest. (Especially if he seemed angry about it all. Anger sells really well these days.)

5. Worth a read

Would have been nice if our Democratic leaders would not have given up so easily--I would have loved to see someone stand up and challenge Bush point by point as this article did!

6. Yep. We needed someone like this to get airtime

but we know that'll never happen under the current circumstances.

2. Excellent article

I especially like the dig on the spineless Democrats.

Paul Waldman's new book called, FRAUD.
