The Sunday Shows - They Watch, so you don't have to
Edited on Sun Nov-07-04 04:46 PM by footinmouth
Pundit Pap from one of my favorite sites American Politics Journal

http://americanpolitics.com/punditpap.html

Here are some excerpts:

Meet the Press
Pre-empted by the Marathon


This Week
This Week
Turning the podium over to a religious fascist

"Bush claims a mandate."

Yep -- those were the words with which George Stephanopoulos began This Week. Sure, they can be parsed to mean, "Well, that's what Bush was claiming" -- but the pre-show blather that followed seemed tailored to drive home the impression that the ex-Texas governor and overall election thief actually has a mandate.

...

If you really want to rub salt into the wound, you invite the most disgusting example of Xtian extremism who has managed to glom onto the "mainstream" media, say, someone like that sanctimonious champion of beating children, "Dr." James Dobson.

Read the link above for Dr. Dobson's visions of utopia.

Face the Nation
Face the Nation
Specter gives the Bush Boy a major headache

We tuned in for a few minutes of Face the Nation -- and, to our great delight, Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter was giving George W. Bush another major headache. You see, Specter told host Bob Schieffer that the President does not have "an arithmetic mandate... that means you have to reach out to Democrats."

...
Hats off to CBS for giving moderate GOPers a chance to state their views -- and to show that the Party of Lincoln is not quite in lock-step.

Read & enjoy! You don't have to watch these shows.
