Rice on Fox, Power on Meet the press.
This is so horrible, to see them spewing all the lies again and the hosts agreeing with them, nodding their heads...
Puke.
Americans will continue believing these lies because the talking heads are cooperating!
I am so upset.

1. You can't compare MTP to FAUX
One is an unapologetic propoganda branch of the Republican Party, the other is perhaps an imperfect media outlet. It's ridiculous to compare the two.

4. No he can't
That was my point. It's like comparing Sam Donaldson to Carl Rove. It's just not a legitimate comparison, and when we distract from the real problem (FAUX and the Republicans) we do a disservice to the country.

3. I am not equating them. But in meet the press
the little that I watched before I turned the TV off, Powell was not being questioned at all.
Maybe MTP is just imperfect but at this moment imperfect hurts.

5. I'll accept the imperfect part
and when Tim Russert goes on the air 24 hours a day spewing right-wing propoganda, then I'll start comparing him to Faux, but not before.

7. I'll read the transcripts but I won't watch
Rice & Powell are doing the Harry Belafonte dance. In other words they're setting the table for junior & his bullshit tonite. Need more money
and more troops from other counties. junior may even cry a little tonight for the dead US soldiers.

The whores will spin this out of site and the poll numbers will go up a little, or maybe a lot, depends on well junior is on his game.

9. the 2nd part was exciting and
Edited on Sun Sep-07-03 09:21 AM by bandy
almost came to blows. Terry Mc and the repug chairman really got into it. I never realized what a smooth talker Terry is. He made some strong points that neither Tim or the repug could refute re: Bush I and 2, and Clinton.

I read the paper during Powell's lies.
