Katherine Harris just got her first free campaign ad from CNN

[Atman]

A lovely little two-minute puff piece called "Then & Now." They even had the nerve to show the Miami Courthouse "riot" wherein a cadre of Bush staffers flown in from around the country pretended they were concerned voters and chanted to shut down the vote count. Then they showed her posing with her bronze statue of a hand holding a Florida ballot, complete with little bronzed chads.

Fucking disgraceful. This is the "New Hardhitting" CNN I guess.

1. Fucking Bitch.

[flpoljunkie]

2. And this is not the first time they have shown it.

[iconoclastic cat]

3. Wait, wouldn't it be good if she were the Repub nominee?

I mean, anyone short of deranged mollusk could beat her, couldn't they?

[Atman]

4. Last I heard, the GOP isn't even backing her

Supposedly, they've placed their support behind her challenger, I think for the very reason you allude to; she is poison. It will be like re-running 2000.

5. It sounds as though she may have someone big on her side, though.

I'm betting she's going to call in some favors. They owe her, you know.

[Atman]

8. BushCo owes nobody

They don't care. They used her up and have tossed her aside like a drunken co-ed at a frat rush. What's she gonna do? Go forward and admit she was complicite in The Crime of The Century? She'd be suicided before the first word of her press conference.

9. Funny, there's no downside to it!

6. The "Brooks Brothers Riot"

11. And then CNN analyzed the photo and

informed their audience who each person in the photo was and which Republican politician or organization employed them and said that they had all been flown down to Florida in an Enron corporate jet.

Sorry...drifted off into fantasyland.

12. AND a private reception for them (with Harris) was held atthe Inauguration

No link but I remember reading that. Jim Baker stopped by to thank all of them.

7. Did they show it

...before or after "American Fly Boy"?


Geesh! How do they find time for so much propaganda when there's a boy scout found in Utah? Amazing!:sarcasm:

The porkers at CNN are aiming for maximum blood on their hands.

[Atman]

10. The Utah scout isn't good PR...making righties look foolish

"God answers prayers and children are found." I think that is the quote from Utah-Boy's mom. The teevee "news" is all over the fact that these right-wing god-freaks had so scared their child in regard to "stranger danger" that he was actually HIDING from his rescuers, and prolonged the search. The Utah-Boy case just makes the righties out to be loonier than ever, and a bunch of paranoid nut cases.
