Edited on Wed Aug-13-03 07:38 AM by NicRic
there would be shouts from the repugs ,"impeach the lier" ! The media would have large pictures off the most recent Amrican to die in Iraq on the front page,since the lying President annouced a end to the war. Very frustrating to see whats become of the "free press" in our country !

3. I see one of those Master Card commercials
Number of U.S. deaths in Iraq: 262

Number of military funerals attended
by George W. Bush: 0

Number of fundraisers attended by
George W. Bush since launching the
Iraq invasion: Whatever the number

Amount raised by Bush at those
fundraisers: Some obscene dollar figure

No publicity of the preceding four items: Priceless.

Some things in life are irreplaceably precious; for everything else, trust the Media Whores.
