Media Doing Nothing But Dishing Out Bad New for Bush this Morning!! |
|
Oh what a joy!! The cable news nets keep dragging out analysts who go through "indicators" in every presidential election and whether they point to the incumbent or the challenger----i.e., Consumer Confidence Index, Wall Street Numbers. And EVERYONE indicates a Bush loss come Tuesday. Of course, I'm not sure they have factored in Christian rigt-wing lunatics and voter fraud. It's kind of hard to 'measure' republicans these days, you know, unless you are guarding the voting places with an army!!!!

they probably haven't factored in large turn out and younger voters; also, African-American voters are more energized this cylce.

4. I heard a few of those comments on CNN this morning. |
|
They were saying that job creation/loss numbers, Consumer Confidence, GDP, DOW, approval ratings, all seem to indicate that Bush can't win.

Could be a set-up for when they steal it .... 'What an AMAZING comeback the President has had ... surmounted all odds ... what an incredible man ... must be chosen by God ... blah blah blah"
:puke:
They've been sucking is ass and playing by KKKarl's script for 3 1/2 years ... why the change ?

9. Naa. This is just the effect of the |
|
real power behind our government that tells it what can and can't do to finally decide enough is enough. bu$h has messed up enough, he's gotta go.

13. Yeah, i wouldn't over-complicate it. The media follows the money, is all. |
|
Among other things to their benefit. Particularly since we're not talking about Fox; I gather that their ideology is "support the winning team." Apparently they smell a Bush failure. *If* he (God forbid) wins then yes, of course they'll start spinning it as a miracle comeback, blah blah, but it won't be because they plotted it.

14. no kidding--when "God chooses Kerry" on Tuesday, what will |
|
Bush worshippers do? Their god has abandoned them. Or, more likely, Satan has put Kerry in place and he is fair game for rightious Christian assassins doing the will of God.
Either way, the hate and the split will continue

7. So far I've seen this "type" of things on |
|
CNN, MSNBC, CNN Headline News and caught some of it over the last couple days on several of the financial networks.

12. The best part about that is that, as we all know, that's self-fulfilling |
|
That is, the "echo chamber" has turned on Bush in the final hour, and that is so important.
