Why is the punditocracy trying so hard to take the bush side
Is it that they are bought and paid for? Kerry blew Bush off the stage but they can't admit their "patron" did as bad as it appears.
We ONLY have the weight of truth on our side. There are those who will try to make B* out to be the hapless victim of circumstances, a man "forced" to take it to the terrorists and to Iraq, but we know better. Many of the viewers may not understand and that is the shame of the media for keeping the public uniformed...for ratings. Remember, the cable news networks WANTED a war so people would watch their pathetic stations. which is in direct contrast to his fearless leader stance

2. It's almost like it's habit at this point.
I honestly don't know. I don't know if they've been bought, threatened, so stupid that they've bought the whole 'you can't question the president in a time of war (or even when he's just thinking about it)'. I just don't know.

3. Easy: A Kerry win is a repudiation of their craven asslicking of bush,.
It's that simple.

4. Bullshit. They WANTED a war so their parent corps
would get rich. They want Bush to win so the parent corps will continue to suck up unGodly profits. It's not just about eyeballs. It's about being the propaganda arm of the Corporate State.

5. It's what they are paid to do!
I doubt that Rove is feeling so generous just about now, and they need to cheer him up so's he'll give him their big fat paychecks!
