Smirky gives the same tired speech LIVE on cable news!
Edited on Fri Feb-24-06 10:26 AM by Vinnie From Indy
The love affair between cable news and BushCo is as strong as ever. I don't remember these stations running Clinton's speeches LIVE and in their entirety as they do unfailingly with BushCo.

It is tragically funny to listen to Smirky give the same speech he always gives and then hear the talking heads fawning all over the boy king afterwards. 9/11, freedom on the march, evildoers, Saddam bad, America good, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11 etc etc etc.

2. As sad as it may be, it works.
Repetition of the same material gets into people's heads. He and his people may have no idea how to run the country, but they sure as hell know how to keep the ear of the people.

13. "I strongly disagree"---he did not sound too convincing--he was responding
to critics to say the elections have brought in groups like Hammas and our goals are not going well.

12. Did you hear Kerry's speech attacking the Swiftliars in Aug 2004 at the
Firefighters Convention? Cspan was the only one there -

No newschannel covered it - yet they all spread the meme that Kerry wasn't taking on the Swifties.

I think they refused to cover it because post 9-11 firefighters had alot of people respecting their courage, and it would be too hurtful to Bush's image to see firefighters backing Kerry.

In fact, when Firefighters first endorsed Kerry, the news networks barely reported that.

The media is definitely controlled by BushInc's cronies. The way they tried to ignore the Downing Street Memos made that perfectly clear.

14. I thought I was in a Time Warp! Turned on CNN and Chimp is giving his
Terra Speech...the same one he gives over and over and over and over....

:crazy: I had just gotten home turned on CNN and there he was...at first I thought something had happened like we'd been attacked again...when I heard him talking about WMD and threat to the world...then I realized it's word for word the same speech he's given since 9/11..

Has he lost his mind? Is this what it's come to? Or, is he now Hitler reincarnated where he gives rallying speeches to the people hoping they will believe him as the troops are being bombed by the allies.

40. I could not believe when he said that the middle east was in rough
shape, before we began our quest to spread democracy throughout the region...gee, and I thought it looked like an illegal invasion.
But what do I know.:shrug:

30. He just scribbled out the word "Iraq" and inserted "Iran"...
we've indeed heard this speech before. "A free and democratic Iran."

He just layed out his plan to take our forces into Iraq.
