Friday's major speech

[Nikepallas]

is supposed to be a MAJOR talk about 9/11 and terrorism. My question is will it be another campaign speech and will the networks be dumb enough to cover it fully or will Friday be the day Bush makes his move to enforce Marshal Law and stop the election "For the safety of America?"

1. ANOTHER Major Speech?

He's averaging one a week now and the cable news networks have been falling for it every week, Billed as a major policy speech, they turn out to be nothing more than a hour long campaign speech. You'd think the media might catch on, but either they are very, very stupid or they want to let Bush have an hour a week to further his campaign. Just for once I wish they'd tell him to go pack rock salt up his ass and NOT cover his campaign speech. I suppose the odds of that are slim and none.

8. Another Major Blow It Out His * Arse

that's how he unconstipates due to having 'head up butt' syndrome. we currently don't have any medical treatment for this "S---Head Syndrome".

2. Let's email the media

and demand that they cover a full Kerry rally if they give Chimp the full time to spout his lies.

3. Nothing major about it !

Except in * own mind and the robots that would follow him off a cliff. Anyone that does'nt see this as anything more then a stunt to make a desperate last minute attempt to fool more into becoming another one of his robotic followers. its amazing that he says Kerry will say anything to get elected ,while he blantantly uses his position as President to spew a endless list of lies to the American people. You know the talking points ,we have had to hear them for months now,Iraq is going very well ,you are safer with me as President, the economy is fantastic.Wait a minute ,who will say anything to get elected !

4. Time to contact the media beforehand this time. The administrators

should post this request in Campaign forum and ask everyone to contact the media ahead of time demanding that they not cover another disingenuous campaign speech dressed up as a policy speech.

[Nikepallas]

6. The only problem

with the idea is that the media might be afraid that HE might just say something earth shattering and they would miss it. Now I hate the media for giving in to this Appointee But I can understand how they are afraid that they will not have the major scoop.

I say they demand to have a preview of the speech and if it is just a campaign speech don't air it.

BUT that won't happen.

5. Good call, Nikepallas! Welcome to DU --

Networks should not air this free campaign commercial for W.

7. MARTIAL law

* maybe should have planned a Marshall Plan for Iraq; now we'll get martial law here.

9. He could hurt himself if he tries to exploit 9/11 this late.

10. Who cares?

Honestly, I'm not sure anyone even cares about what Bush says anymore. Those who are voting for him are done. Those who are undecided at this point probably aren't voting due to any great issue or speech. And Bush has had the shittiest week possible (just about), so I don't think his last plea will do anything for him.

But I could be wrong. Eff him. I"m so sick of his "major policy" Kerry-bash-fests.

11. Once you start having speeches every week,

they cease to be MAJOR.

[Lugnut]

13. Yeah, really

Especially when it's the same old, tired stump speech.

[Roland99]

12. Is there a link for this "news" and where it's to be held?

[realFedUp]

14. Fool me once, shame on you....fool me over and over...

I must be a fool.

15. Another stump speech, of course

Nothing new. We all know what he's up to and we all know that cable news is full of whores who will give him free air time. The only problem is that * is so inept that he's more likely to hurt than help himself every time he opens his mouth. Let's hope he gives us another line like, "You don't want someone who jumps to conclusions without the facts as president".

16. And george will rise gallantly

to his feet, stand in front of the microphones and begin to speak. The speech is short. But it's the most rousing speech I've ever read. It's been worked on, here and in Russia, on and off, for over eight years. I shall force someone to take the body away from him and george will really hit those microphones and those cameras with blood all over him, fighting off anyone who tries to help him, defending America even if it means his own death, rallying a nation of television viewers to hysteria, to sweep us up into the White House with powers that will make martial law seem like anarchy!


that will make martial law seem like anarchy!
