My "News Vacation" ends tomorrow
Yup, took a week off. No MSNBC, no CNN, absolutely no FOX, no papers, no Drudge, no Shrubya, no Kerry.

Goddess I feel good. I feel like I'm way out of the loop, and I did lurk a little at DU, but I didn't follow through on any campaign threads or anything like that. I needed to not obsess over every little thing. It felt good, I think everyone should try it.

But now, after being a slug for a week, time to get back up to speed. So I understand CBS and Dan Rather have been the talk of the town lately. Shrubya's still a jackass I imagine. Is Cheney still saying that if you vote for Kerry then we'll be attacked? Are we still having roses thrown at us in Iraq? Anyone resigned? Anyone indicted?

1. You know what?
That sounds like such a terrific idea. I just might do that because I'm getting really tired of the foolishness I'm hearing and reading in our "liberal" media.

Glad it worked out for you.

2. Then you didn't hear about the coup?
The people control the USA now

4. Answers to your questions.
*So I understand CBS and Dan Rather have been the talk of the town lately.

Yup.

*Shrubya's still a jackass I imagine.

Yup. Theme of the day is we're making great progress in Iraq. And something about the Afghan Army attacking Najaf.


*Is Cheney still saying that if you vote for Kerry then we'll be attacked?

Yup. He did it again today.

*Are we still having roses thrown at us in Iraq?

Do roses go "boom"?

*Anyone resigned?

Nope.

*Anyone indicted?

Yeah. Tom Delay's senior staff.
