Ugh! CNN airing Bush* bio Aug 29, "The man...the president*"

[gulfcoastliberal]

10-1 it's a fawning, uncritical, glamorized ass-kissing expedition into right-wing press psyops propaganda. It will be really interesting to contrast it to their special on Kerry. That is, only if you have a cast-iron gut - I'm sure the liefest will be difficult to watch.

1. they run the slobbering GHWB one once a week, it seems

but I took CNN out of my channel rotation, so I never watch it.

[blm]

2. I'm hoping they interview Martin Heldt of awolbush.com and William Burkett

who saw Dan Bartlett trash Bush's Texas National Guard records.

After all, CNN went to John O'Neill to talk about Kerry and his service. Why shouldn't they talk to these men about George?

3. So they can broadcast this but commercials for F/911 are out?

Riiiiiiiiiiiight.

4. the man, the president, the biggest asshole on the planet.

I'll have to watch it with people that share my distaste for that moving lump of resident evil. Beer, pretzels and lots of hoots, jeers and guffaws. It'll be fun to watch the CNN whores idolize the ditz.

5. The man?

Murderer. We are men, my liege.

Macbeth. Ay, in the catalogue ye go for men;
As hounds and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs,
Shoughs, water-rugs and demi-wolves, are clept
All by the name of dogs: the valued file
Distinguishes the swift, the slow, the subtle,
The housekeeper, the hunter, every one
According to the gift which bounteous nature
Hath in him closed; whereby he does receive
Particular addition. from the bill
That writes them all alike: and so of men.
Now, if you have a station in the file,
Not i' the worst rank of manhood, say 't;
And I will put that business in your bosoms,
Whose execution takes your enemy off,
Grapples you to the heart and love of us,
Who wear our health but sickly in his life,
Which in his death were perfect.

-- Macbeth, 3.1.91-108

6. Bet your right.

:puke:

[TexasSissy]

7. Doesn't that mean they have to do a show on Kerry?

Equal time law and all?

The Biography channel ALSO did a bio show on Bush the son. Ugh is right. You only have to see that to realize that documentaries really ARE op-ed pieces!

[blm]

9. They did beforet the convention. It was 70% antiKerry and they interviewed

John O'Neill. That's why I'd like them to be fair and interview Marty Heldt and William Burkett in regard to Bush's "National Guard service" the same way they gave time to O'Neill.

[TexasSissy]

12. Guess I missed that.

13. Ther IS no equal time law in Imperial Amerika

Actually, the Imperial Family realized long ago that the only way they could get their Third-World Dictatorship installedwas if they turned the Free Press into a Carnival of Nonsense and Bushevik Bias.

Step #1: Kill the Fairness Doctrine using Bushevik Operatives and Loyalists pretending to be "judges" (which they AREN'T!)

8. "The Monkey ...........The Resident" n/t

[DeepModem Mom]

10. If this piece is not a hitpiece, we need to hit CNN with both barrels --

Candy Crowley's "Born to Run" about Kerry, aired for the Dem Convention, was an outrage!

[quinnox]

11. Just what I think

It will be a cream puff piece about Bush - "the resolute, glorious leader who is just like the everyman"

[PurityOfEssence]

14. Aptly named; we're talking about two different people here

One is a lazy, greedy, incurious, vindictive, petty, privileged narcissist, and the other is the great godking of righteous magnanimity. The man and the president; too bad they've never met.
