Reply #15: did she come off that way on that show?

[rusty charly]

here's a quote from an interview with her:

“I talk about my disdain for that liar or should I say liars in the White House,” she says, turning serious. She refers to President George Bush as “that thing in the White House.” She’s hopeful that things will make a turnaround after the debates. “Kerry comes from behind and he’s a master debater. I’m really looking forward to the debates. When you travel like I do you realize how stupid so many people in this country are. Actually, they are smart but they still believe all those lies.” She considers the public furor around former President Bill Clinton’s not-so-private sex life and compares that with the disinformation that is the backbone of the current administration. “How much money was spent on that blow job?” she asks incredulously. “And how many lives are now being lost because of policies?”

Almost worse, she says, is the smoke and mirror effect that all the attention to the Iraqi war is taking up in the media. “No one is really looking at his domestic agenda on things like social security or economics.”

And, she adds, she doesn’t want to hear another word about the liberal, left-leaning media. Most media, she asserts, is firmly under the control of right wing conservatives with a vested interest in maintaining the Republican status quo.
