The key takeaway from tonight....we have lost our media
If this is the coverage we can expect for the next year....then the biggest losers are the american people....because we have lost our media.

Faux is just horseshit.... but the reality is we don't have an investigative bone in any of the networks.

There are enough lies out there to choke a horse....it doesn't matter.

1. I have felt like that for a long time
even more so now, its Crunch time, and the major news mediawhores ignore all the investigative stories...the lies and lack of info about 9/11, the PNAC agenda, etc etc etc..


we have and still are in a blackout.
and still live in a coup.
National Nightmare.

2. And after the debate...
The FOX commentators spent a lot of time pointing out that the Democrats mostly just beat up on George Bush and didn't really offer any positive alternatives...

3. Are you referring to post-debate BS
or the fact that Faux hosted a Dem debate?

4. I see it a different way...
I would like FOX to lull its viewers into a false sense of security about Bush being reelected. Which they seem to be doing, saying none of the candiates have solutions, etc.

Remember, the people watching FOX will all vote for * anyway. While they are cheering Hannity's idiotic Right Wing rants, we will Take Our Country Back.

(Meanwhile, I turned to CNN and they are are interviewing a soldier who refuses to say a nice thing about the president. Back to some sanity. Funny how CNN can seem remarkably liberal and fair after watching FOX. LOL.)
