CNN is running a headline that says "Democrats Clash On Iraq."

[alfredo]

Are they trying to paint a picture of disunity? I pointed out their poll that seemed to lead one to believe that viewers were dissatisfied with the candidates.

What do you think of this headline that has been running all day on CNN.com?

[xultar]

1. Well there was some clashing about those who voted for it initally and those

who didn't and the vote to fund.

They all agree that we should get out they just disagree on how.

I admit that Edwards scored some points with me callin Obama and Clinton on the carpet for being silent.

CNN may be fuckin around but I think airing some differences helps us in the long run.

So, FUCK YOU CNN.

5. And Obama scored some points with me by reminding

Edwards that he was about "4-1/2 years late on leadership."

[xultar]

12. Yeah. They did an excellent job I think. They can disagree and still

be accurate and 10000000000% better than any fuckin republic.

2. Iraq threatens to split the RRRepublicans far worse, but that's not sexy, apparently. nt

3. I've noticed the same thing, since early this morning....

It's not just about "Democrats clash", it's about "Democrats attacking each other..." etc.

Obviously the corporate media received Rove's talking points for the day.

If you have the chance, watch different stations today and watch how they use exactly the same attack words.

4. Well, they sure what people to think it's the Dems who are divided. Did you notice

this is also on the site: Navarrette: Dems lack clarity on immigration

[blondeatlast]

6. Yeah, because the RRReubliclans are so together on both issues.

:eyes:

7. Did you see the exchange on Iraq?

I think its a fair story headline. The fact is that many of the candidates are trying to say their current position or original position on Iraq is unique/superior to other leading candidates. Better get used to seeing this.

[alfredo]

10. They were all in agreement that we should leave Iraq. The only

disagreement was over past votes.

[BootinUp]

13. like 15-20 days ago?

ancient history right?

I think you have fallen for your own spin or somebody else's. If the candidates spar over the votes then what do you think the media will report? Its not a media conspiracy its just the way it works.

[alfredo]

14. It just seems the media is quick to say the Dems are in

disarray. They don't seem to understand that that is the way democracy should work. That's a hell of a lot better than what we see out of the Republicans.

8. A headline on the AOL site

A headline on the AOL site, regarding the bribery charges against William Jefferson, reads "Grand Jury Indicts Democrat". Not "Congressman", like they would write if it were a Repub, or how they phrased it once you clicked to the actual article, but "Democrat".

Nope. No bias there.

9. When DeLay was arrested, much less indicted, I can't recall seeing the word RRRepublican in

a single headline.

Not once.

[alfredo]

11. They called Foley A Democrat.

[blondeatlast]

15. Hell, yes--I remember that.

Their apology was so sincer, too... :eyes:
