I kept switching to CNN to see what was happening in the gulf this a.m.

but all I ever saw was the nitwit fireworks car news, told over and over and over.

I finally gave up.

which is more important? not the damn car!

1. Amazing how news is just created out of thin air.

You know how many trucks are stopped and searched outside the Whitehouse everyday? Almost everytime I go to the Mall I see a large truck that is stopped being searched by the Secret Service. I would imagine it happens several times daily. Why haven't the news orgs jumped all over that? We could have terror threats every single day!

2. I take it as a measure of desperation....

And one more sign that the Deepwater Horizon leak has escalated out of control...

This is bad news and bad for some of their major advertisers.

CNN is being told they better watch what they say, betcha.
