3. I'm actually surprised at this question on CNN!
The vote for Electronic device is at 88%!

I'm a bit surprised that CNN is even airing this story!

6. Don't worry
CNN is still carrying its water for the GOP. Notice how they float "vast left wing conspiracy" as one of the choices?

But I love that Bush wearing an electronic listening device is pop culture knowledge now. }(

The Milli Vanilli president. :wtf:

10. I voted electronic cheating device attached to a bulletproof vest...
which is fused together with an idiot.

Does anyone know of a bulletproof vest with a rectangular bulge on the back?

14. Honestly, I don't think it is an electronic device...
There must be much smaller, less obvious devices available to the President of the United States.

But it's fun to spread the meme! LOL!

If he gives that pathetic a performance WITH an earpiece, that's REALLY sad.

16. Hey, if they want to stop the meme
all they have to do it tell us what it is.

This "lauging it off" stuff is only working against them.

19. 89% now. I think Barbara Walter's demo on "the view"
this morning (said to have shown their remote prompters, which are about the same size and shape as "the bulge") has had an effect!

23. She certainly implied it with her demonstration.
She also said, very emphatically, that if * did use a wireless, it was illegal. One of the other ladies said that would make him a puppet and another remarked, "Who would want someone like that as the president?" LOL!!!! :toast: We did it! We got the story in the MSM!

25. Bet your ass that the Whitehouse is
tailoring in bulges in his suits so they can do a show and tell. See it's just a wrinkle. Hope Kkkkarl doesn't poke his self with a dirty needle.

Voted "Electronic", because "Crack Pipe Traveling Case" is not an option.

31. Lots of visibility on this issue on the late night talk shows too.
This really is great timing for tomorrow. It makes Bush look like a liar and foolish and also places huge pressure on how this handle this tomorrow.

32. I don't really think the Shrub is wired but...
We've had to deal with so many non-issues blown up by the right wing smoke screen i.e. Kerry's tan, botox etc. that we should have fun with this one.

These things stick because they reinforce some preconcieved idea that people have about the candidate. The "Kerry is vain and/or wants to look younger to appeal to voters and/or his filthy rich wife" theme is, well, believable to many people.

What the earpiece controversy says is that people are coming around to the believe that the leader of the free world is not the sharpest crayon in the box and may need outside assistance to keep him from reciting "MY Pet Goat" during a press conference.

33. If it's not an electronic device, let them PROVE it's not!
They throw lies out all the time. It's all they need to do. Throw it out, no facts to back it up repeat, repeat, repeat and it becomes fact. Turnabout is fair play. Prove it, you assholes.

Do you think Paula, The Wench, Zahn will read these results on air? Not a chance.

What do you think was behind the bulge on President Bush's jacket during the debates?

An Electronic device 89% 7032 votes

A bulletproof vest 6% 450 votes

Bad tailoring 2% 164 votes

A vast left-wing conspiracy 3% 258 votes
Total: 7904 votes
