What's up with Bush getting a plug on Monday Night Football?

[BJ]

Did any of you notice the plug John Madden and Al Michaels gave the Moron-in-Chief during the third quater of last night's exhibition game between Kansas City and St. Louis last night?

At least I think it was the third quarter, but regardless of when it was on it was a blantant pro-Bush political message!

My buddy and I were so pissed.

Those two blowhards are probably worried they'll lose they're Bush-tax cuts if Kerry's elected.

1. Michaels is a Repuke

I guess Madden is too. BTW, if you think that was bad, ABC is going to have a halftime special from the convention during Monday's MNF game. That's the night the networks aren't supposed to provide any coverage. Remember, they only gave the Dems three nights.

3. I can turn off the halftime and watch something else.

And I always do so anyway.

And the boys in the bars aren't going to pay any attention, either.

But, you're so correct. It ain't right.

2. What did they say?

I did see Dick-head there eating fried chicken...i was hoping he'd choke on a bone, but unfortunately he didnt

4. He was in town campaigning

for a neocon here in Kansas running against our Dem congressman. I was supposed to be at the game last night, but couldn't make it. Caught Dickey-boy on tv. :puke:

5. Aww, it was standard pro-Bush bs

"Dubya's a friend of Dick Vermiel." A big NFL fan. Yaddy-yaddy-yadda. And historically the state of Missouri's voted for the eventual presidental winner the last umpity-ump years. Dubya leads Kerrys in Missouri polls 50% to 46% or some such garbage like that.

All total Limbaugh!

My buddy and I were so pissed at seeing this crap we vented by futilely yelling at the television.

Yeah, we were hopin' Unca Dick would have a heart attack while he was slurpin' down his Coke!

6. Michaels is a vicious little repug whore.

He has RUINED Monday Night Football for me. It's not enough that he's a shill for Bush, but for the first year or two after 2000, he delighted in dropping the occasional Al Gore insults. What an ass.
