Are Babs Bush's charming comments making the cable news?
I boycott the corporate media, so I don't know, but I imagine they won't touch them. I still remember the way they ignored her disgusting "beautiful minds" diatribe. :puke:

9. He seemed rather disgusted. The Babs people refused to
elaborate on it or explain it. He said something to the affect it stoked the fires of what people have been saying about dimson. He was not pleased, I believe.

5. Well, I'll be darned
Do they just play the comments and let them slide, or do have guests comment on them?

4. It was on Imus this morning.
I was just waking up so I don't really know more that it was being talked about.

6. Dunno but it made the cheerleading parents discussions tonight
Scene: Suburban parents sitting around during kid's practice.

Action: Nearly everyone had heard about what she said and were totally disgusted. Everyone appalled at W's performance during the disaster.

People ARE paying attention...which is GOOD
