Could Someone Screen-Cap This CNN.CON Bullshit For Me?

Check out this wording:
"Bush veto forces Dems to weigh difficult concessions

President Bush's veto of an Iraq war spending bill that set timelines for U.S. troop withdrawals puts new pressure on Democrats in Congress to craft a compromise even as their caucus grows more fractious on the topic."

1. Why can't you?

Not trying to sound testy but taking a screencap is really easy. Just hit your 'Print Screen' button and then paste the capture into your favorite graphics program and save it.

A really simple, free program is Irfanview while the GIMP is much more full featured and also free.

6. I Have An iBook

Can I still do it? I'll try if I can. I'mnot the most computer-literate person in the world, but I'll make an effort.

2. You know what the so-called MSM/liberal media is?

Even after the 2006 election, the media is still being fed the talking points from the RNC

The Wall Street Journal Headline on this is the following:

"Democrats lack votes to override Bush's veto of the Iraq war-spending bill, but Republican support could unravel if the "surge" fails to show results by fall."

The Journal as a news source is usually quite fair and right on, it doesn't inflect the influence of the administration that most of the other rags do. However, their editorals are right wing insanity

7. Thanks : )

I have a lot to learn. Hope I can figure out a way to do that on an iBook.

10. Here's how I capture screenshots

I have Gadwin print screen.

I click PrtSc and "Continue Capture";

My screencaps are automatically saved into "My Pictures" in
a folder called Screenshots;

I open MSPublisher, click "Insert," click "picture," click "From File";

I open "My pictures," click "Screenshots," and find the latest screenshot;

I click on the picture to insert it into Publisher; crop the pic, and "Save as picture";

I go to Photobucket and upload the pic, click on the square brackets "Copy & Paste" code,
and paste the pic into a DU post.

There's probably an easier way to do this, but it works for me.
