If Bush steals another election, how much will the press be responsible?? |
|
No matter what they say in their own defense, they are not telling the people the facts or the truth. This is not the time for "on the other hand" news. This is a time for aggressive reporting of the truth. It is not a "game" between the Democrats and Republicans.
They lied to get us into a preemtive war in Iraq with over 1100 US casualties as we speak, and numerous thousands of innocent Iraqis. How much more serious does it have to get to be a serious news story? Let's have another poll, assholes.
This is the first time since Herbert Hoover that a president has not had a net plus of job growth. This president has lost almost a million more jobs than have been created, and that is the conservative estimate. How much more do they need to have a story? Do we need to go back to George Washington?
Well, this president has created more deficit spending than all the presidents from George Washington thru Ronald Reagan. Is that enough to get your attention? If not, get off your knees and go to work.

4. They are responsible, but so is the American public.. |
|
With so many sources out there(like DU) there is no excuse not to be up to date and knowledgeable about what is going on and how bad Bush has really been..Of course the way this country is dividing is very scary and the way there is no integrity in telling the truth(Rush Limbaugh,etc.) peole can stay ignorant and still not feel responsible since they heard it on Rush..Our country is in deep shit, and I only hope we make it through this..

Call me Pollyanna, but I refuse to believe that bush is going to be president for the next 4 years. At least I'm not going to contemplate it until the election is over.

11. The press will 100% responsible! |
|
They have done nothing in the last 4 years to show any criticism of this regime and more over they have pandered to them and help them to destroy anyone who challenged them. IT IS ALL THE MEDIA's FAULT.
