Repukes are coming over
A Republican I've known for twenty years, father was a B-52 pilot, two weeks ago told me George Bush is a "hero".

Talked to him today, says, "you know buddy, I've got to confess--you were right, I was wrong. Bush is an idiot--we never should have invaded Iraq."


The press is beginning to turn the tide...

1. The other way around I think.
I still see the press passicly critizing Bush. And I have yet heard the meidea say one unkind word about him as the casultiies, scandels, and decptions are all spun.

But the "populer Bush" was allways a myth. And as the spun acounts mount, it becomes harder and harder for the people to look past the rosy pictures. And the truth, being hiden in plane view, is starting to set the contrast.

The press is so kind to Bush, that with the latest WMD issue, they are afrade of being seen as irrelivent. And thats bad for the bottom line.

3. What a turnaround!
Two weeks ago he calls Bush a hero and now he calls him an idiot. It just proves how a lot of the public are spoon fed information from tne media. I used to be that way....not anymore.
