CBS Evening News - Lead FOUR stories tonight
1.) Bush retains counsel to represent him in Plame leak,
2.) Congress/Senate flap over Enron, and their ties to administration,
3.) Chalabi told of Iran codes by drunken US Official,
4.) Stop-loss measures to keep soldiers in past their discharge dates.

Damn, Kerry doesn't need to spend a penny on ads. The press is FINALLY stepping up to the plate and exposing this corrupt, despicable administration for what it is.

5. Good deal, that! And the "story within the story", of course is
"3.) Chalabi told of Iran codes by drunken US Official"

Shrub fell off the wagon! :beer:

13. Then there's the Cheney memo proving

Can you feel it???

14. I always said that Bush was in on the Plame leak. He and Rove
were ALWAYS together on decisions regarding dirty tricks just as they have been for THREE DECADES as political strategists.

The media always forgets to mention that Bush was a political operative with Atwater and Rove for so many years. Conveniently...they forget to mention it to the American people.

26. That's what you always say!
...because you've always said it!

That Little Turd from Crawford learned the dark arts from a master. Segretti's not bad, either.

18. You are right! Kerry should just shut the hell up and wait until Septembe
Bush will self-destruct by then.

20. Kerry does not need to campaign right now.
bush is taking care of that for him. Kerry looks more and more Presidential when compared with this fool.

The dominoes are starting to fall . . .

22. Has the FCC started a war?????

Has the FCC picked a fight with Viacom that it cannot win???? Have they effectively broken Viacom's leash by pulling to tightly on it???

The discipline of the Bush administration is falling apart. The Bush folks would have done better to cut a deal in private rather than making Viacom a PR whipping boy.

The chains are off, I'm hoping that the newly unleashed Dan Rather will tear Bush a new asshole (besides his mouth).

24. This is great
Then you watch some piece o'shit like Hardball, and it's just ho hum ho hum, can Kerry win? And Americans want Shrub to have a barbeque with. Why is he pandering to the stupidest Americans?????? We deserve better than incompetent and better than these criminals.

HELLO Matthews, the "President" is about to be taken down as a criminal,or at least certainly somebody around him- why don't you discuss that ad nauseum?

25. LIBERAL MEDIA!!! COMMIES!!! CLENIS!!!!
Whaaaaaa!!!!!!!

I hope to see the rightards flailing and screaming in a panic, shouting out one stupid familiar lie after another in an impotent attempt to be taken seriously one last time before being lost from sight forever. Kinda like the liquid metal Terminator in that vat of molten steel.
