3. It's not that..
They are everything that is wrong with the media..

When the balloons fell judy had to pipe up that the dems ballons didn faLL RIGHT but then when they interviewed Reed you could see that alought of the repukes ballons had not fallen..

When Reed said Kerry allowed the men to go off to battle and wouldnt vote for the 87 billion there was a great opening for the reporters to ask Reed why Bush would allow the soldiers to go off to war without armor in the first place.. By asking for armor while the war was going on he hamstringed the congress.. How can you vote against the 87 billion when our troops are at war even though 20 billion went to halliburton.. I just want one reporter to say why would you alllow our troops to go to war without the armor??


Then another analyst came on and called the dems convention like a lobotomy.. He critisized the dems for talking issues, in contrast to the repukes who spent 4 days lying and slamiming Kerry.. He says when Kerry speaks tonight the game will be on.. Hey asshole maybe I want to hear about the issues nd not the mud slinging..

Then they had some red headed bitch come on and she basically called Bush Jesus.. It was a total kiss up to the fucking repukes.. I am sick of the reich wingmedia!!

4. BTW here is what Kerry said on Iraq..
Here's what Kerry said at the time he voted to give Bush the authority to
use force as an OPTIONAL , IF NECESSARY, with UN Security Council approval,
only if an IMMINENT threat is real and as a LAST RESORT:

"Let me be clear, the vote I will give to the President is for one reason
and one reason only: To disarm Iraq of weapons of mass destruction, if we
cannot accomplish that objective through new, tough weapons inspections in
joint concert with our allies. "

"In giving the President this authority, I expect him to fulfill the
commitments he has made to the American people in recent days - to work with
the United Nations Security Council to adopt a new resolution setting out
tough and immediate inspection requirements, and to act with our allies at
our side if we have to disarm Saddam Hussein by force. If he fails to do so,
I will be among the first to speak out. "

"If we do wind up going to war with Iraq, it is imperative that we do so
with others in the international community, unless there is a showing of a
grave, imminent - and I emphasize "imminent" - threat to this country which
requires the President to respond in a way that protects our immediate
national security needs. "

"Let there be no doubt or confusion about where we stand on this. I will
support a multilateral effort to disarm him by force, if we ever exhaust
those other options, as the President has promised, but I will not support a
unilateral U.S. war against Iraq unless that threat is imminent and the
multilateral effort has not proven possible under any circumstances. "

"In voting to grant the President the authority, I am not giving him carte
blanche to run roughshod over every country that poses or may pose some kind
of potential threat to the United States. Every nation has the right to act
preemptively, if it faces an imminent and grave threat, for its self-defense
under the standards of law. The threat we face today with Iraq does not meet
that test yet. I emphasize "yet." Yes, it is grave because of the deadliness
of Saddam Hussein's arsenal and the very high probability that he might use
these weapons one day if not disarmed. But it is not imminent, and no one in
the CIA, no intelligence briefing we have had suggests it is imminent. None
of our intelligence reports suggest that he is about to launch an attack. "
