5. Usually not during the day
Edited on Mon Nov-03-03 11:39 AM by khephra
You can almost expect a call for TO during each news event for me.

He's now talking about us being a mighty county because we love our neighbors the way we love ourselves.

Hugs Sis!

Includes clap track. :puke:
Enemy hit us 9/11. Some chief executive officers quit acting responsibly. We marched to war. Everthing affected the ecconomy. "If you cheat, we will hold you to account" Let people have more of their own money. Blah, Blah, Blah.

27. Does it really have a Clap Track?
Edited on Mon Nov-03-03 11:50 AM by tom_paine
Did you check it against CNN, though it wouldn't surprise me if they, too, had a Clap Track.

If so, then more steps in the direction of Soviet-ness have been taken. This would have been unconscionable during the days of the Old Republic.

Can you confirm the presence of an artificial Clap Track?

44. I also see it is on MSNBC
I'm trying to compare, and they have it too. I guess it's just a friendly crowd. Some people think it's time for a tax increase, of course they think anytime is a good time. Clap, clap, clap

12. He's in birmingham..my back yard practically
Yeah bush and his motorcade came right through the interstate in the heart of the city. It was pretty cool, I saw a silent Black helicopter about 1000 yards ahead of the motorcade it probably had all kind of missile capabilities on it. Anyway held up traffic like always.

70. When I hear him talk like that, I assume he has taken his morning intake
of drugs? Usually, if you notice, it is worse in the early morning. Must be taking some pretty heavy psychotropics.

38. Signs of Recovery banner
on bottom of screen just fascinates me.

SIGNS of RECOVERY

*blip
nat unemploy rate 6.1%
*blip
bush will raise 1 mil for campaign funds
*blip
2.7 mil jobs lost since early 2001
*blip
Gov rept: gdp up 7.2%
*blip *blip *blip *blip
bush econ plan: cut health-care costs
reduce medical liability costs
make tax cuts permanent
trim small business regulation
*blip
bush admin: tax cuts spurred economic growth

Somebody must have caught the error and cut out blipping the unemployment rate, the raising 1 mil and the 2.7 mil jobs lost.

What a freaky moment though. *jr blathering on, and the SIGNS OF RECOVERY banner beneath blipping jobs lost, unemployment rate and jr's fundraising.

Fox cut back to The thugs the sons of Saddam Hussein. We are defending freedom. Cut off again, Fox was trying to catch him talking about the Chinook.
I guess the speech is too nauseating for anyone to carry it. Bogus too. Goofy too.

55. Boy, he's on the "Alabama message" today
"We hate taxes."

"We like marriage."

"We hate 'junk' lawsuits that make it hard to do business."

"Permanent tax relief."

"Jobs for you here in Alabama."

No mention of the war that has killed 12 of our citizens (last time I counted, it may be more now). No mention of our citizens serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. No mention of our share of the burden of rebuilding Iraq. No mention of the manufacturing jobs pouring out of Alabama headed elsewhere.

:puke:

Oh, thank god, they finally cut away from him.
