I wonder what would have happened if the media |
|
had paid as much attention to boosh taking us to war as is being paid to Daschle and his tax problem?

2. It was too boring a story compared to...say...Paris Hilton. |
|
Plus, there`s no need to count dead Iraqis or dead soldiers. Why bring up unpleasant topics when everyone was on their way to the mall?

...to the Buscho line of IRAQ HAS WMDs!!!! How would one ever question such a definitive thing? The war was marketed to the American public, and the media was actively a part of that.

4. The media accepted everything boosh and his minions said |
|
with no questions asked. In fact they seem to beat the drum for the war and anyone who had questions about what was happening (think Phil Donohue) was removed from tv.
Yet all we are hearing now is from Reps. Where are the Dems to defend Obama, Daschle and this tax situation? MIA

5. I emailed CNN and asked them the same question. |

I am so frustrated with the bias shown toward this Administration it makes me crazy. The fill in for David Shuster on MSNBC sent me over the edge today so now I have it on Discovery ID for background noise.
It puts me in mind of Allen Jackson's song talking about watching "I Love Lucy" reruns. We need to get back to the basics and put all this partisan bullsh*t aside. Our Country is on the verge of going bankrupt, and the MSM is knit picking garbage. I understand they are eager after the last 8 years of not being able to ask questions, but their trivial questions are absurd. Chuck Todd, especially.
