only talking about Kofi's call for Gitmo to close. Tony Blair made the saem call this morning. Why aren't they covering Blair? Why did Rummy ignore Blair's call - afterall he hasn't been to Gitmo either.

2. Cause Blair can't be dismissed |
|
It's a big deal if Tony (aka Poodle) sides with the UN vs US. He was the only thing that gave us any credibility invading Iraq and fixing the intelligence. It surprised me when I read it today and I instantly took it as a good sign.

4. Please stop calling them "the MSM" - there's NOTHING... |
|
..."mainstream" about their twisted agenda of greed and manipulation. Call them what they are, the Corporate Media.
NGU.

5. Because hearing "Kofi Annan" will make the Bushlovian Dogs Drool |
|
They will all start panting and barking, like they do when they hear "Ted Kennedy" or "Jane Fonda."
That allows the Freeper types to pull the non-sequiter diversionary tactic. If Tony Blair's remarks were mentioned, they might actually have to talk about Gitmo.

6. Because Bush cronies bought control of broadcast media in the 80s and 90s |
|
You think the House of Saud, GE - a defense contractor, and Rupert Murdoch have the freedom of the United States and its democracy as a point of concern?
These people are fascists and it is their global fascist agenda at work - fully hidden and disguised by the flag wavers and crossbearers.
