Medals - Diversion from March?
Maybe we should stop saying anything about the Medal story and start hammering away about getting coverage for the March. Maybe that's the REAL ploy here. It's just a diversion from how many people showed up at the March and how many people there really are who want Bush out. Because they win by mind control, herd mentality.

Have we allowed ourselves to be bushwhacked with this medal story?

1. I agree, how could they compare bush's war record to Kerry's.
I hope this backfires on them. These chicken hawks have some nerve.

2. I agree
The medal thing is just to annoy, damage kerry if possible, and deflect from larger issues. Personality over issues always wins in the media.

3. I sent an email to CBS last night for their coverage of the March
They did the best job in the reporting.

I also sent emails to CNN, at least a half dozen, questioning why they gave the story two minutes when a million people cared enough to participate. In one I said, if they are looking for viewers, right here would be a million people who would be avid watchers. And those million people had friends and family who would also tune in.

I told them that their mothers, sisters and daughters would be disappointed in them that they did not care enough to give some time to the story that women matter.
