Here's what i don't get about dems. appearing on TV. |

Why don't they accuse the talking head of using scripts from the RNC or Rove? Just be utterly condescending to the host: "Yes, Wolf, I know that's what your Fax from the RNC said;" or "Yes, I know Lou, that's exactly the phrase Karl Rove used, but . . ." Or, even be more blatant: "Dear God, John, do you guys simply crib all of the Republican talking points. Here are the facts . . ." Want to have more fun, actually bring in White House/RNC quotes that mirror the ones being used. Don't tell them they got the facts wrong; tell them they are being INTENTIONAL right wing megaphones.
Just embarrass them with the accusation of bias. And keep doing it. Again and again. The right called it "working the refs." (Bill Kristol). The one insult that hurts the newsperson is when you go after their "objectivity." And go ahead and be hostile about it. The right's been doing it for almost 30 years. The fear has set in. We should probably get started.
Do to every media figure what Clinton did to Wallace. AND DON'T APOLOGIZE.

2. When the Tower of Babel |

that is the current arrogant chaos of mindless news and diverse choices becomes the preachy Tower of Parrots slurping the crumbs spinkled down from on high it should be noted that in both cases the tower itself deserves a tumble.

3. That would be creative and aggressive. We don't do creative and aggressive. |

We "wait for them to fall on their swords" and "give them enough rope to hang themselves with" and we "keep our powder dry" and stuff like that.
Am am told that you have to lose 3 election cycles in a row and then it finally works the 4th time (maybe)
KEPP YOUR POWDER DRY!!!!!
