PROPAGANDA ALERT: NBC Today Show Airs * Photo Op/Interview Tomorrow!
Ugh, makes me SICK! This morning Matt Lauer says they will interview * tomorrow morning while * hammers away making homes for displaced hurricane victims.

Maybe you guys can watch, but I cannot. I simply don't have the stomach for ONE MORE cheezy, put-on, Hollywood-ized * photo-op.

But do you guys see a trend here? First, NBC Nightly News on Saturday night did a pure propaganda piece rife with lies and half-truths about how Governor Blanco was the REALLY the one to blame for the failed response to Katrina. Now, they are airing an overt propagandized photo op and interview with * tomorrow morning on the Today Show.

WHAT GIVES?? Has NBC turned into FOX News on steroids? How has this happened?

3.  $8 billion reasons...
Back in October the Neocons doled out $28 billion of fun money to the Defense Industry. General Electric got their share at $8 billion.
