They were hoping that they'd have a Director's Cut Edition ready for the after Christmas sales, but marketing scotched that idea.

Roger Ailes is the producer of all of these OBL tapes. Murdoch needs these red-meat tapes for his viewers.

4. Stinks of Rove. His true calling: stage director. |
|
Edited on Thu Jan-19-06 10:32 AM by JDPriestly
That's what Rove does: he puts on theatrical performances for the public. Politics to him is an arena on which he stages a show for entertainment, to keep the voters on edge, excited to experience the next perilous adventure. Public policy is off the stage. To him, there is nothing dramatic about bad schools, the uninsured, the underpaid, underemployed and unemployed, the skyrocketing debts, the precarious balance of payments.
The timing is just too convenient for the Bush administration. We've seen this perfect timing again and again. When will the public at large see through it. I just can't see the terrorists timing the releases of their videos this perfectly. If they were tuning in to our news cycles, you'd think they would release videos that draw attention to their plans when not much was going on here, not just when some Republican scandal was hitting the headlines.

11. Hackett was correct, that all the right wing has is fear and intimidation. |
