The CNN piece airing tonight looks like it will be a hit piece
against Obama. They had clips last night. Of course they showed how Obama is this ruthless Chicago style politician. Then they showed McCain's clips with him getting teary eyed when talking about Vietnam. I have a feeling the rest of the piece will probably be like that too...........

1. yeah Stephanie Miller had the guy who made the 2 documentaries on her radio show.
I don't know why she did that before she saw what they were doing. Oh well.

6. Wonder if King will report McCain was reportedly the only person transferred off the USS Forrestal

I really doubt it. The McCain promo was shamelessly pro-McCain.

8. I dunno. I saw a clip this AM about McNuts at the Academy and
one of his fellow cadets was talking about a water battle they were having in their room. A knock on their door brought them to attention. When the door opened, an officer was standing there, and John yelled out DAD! His father looked in and said "this room is a disaster (iI forget the word he actually used). It's no wonder you're flunking!"

We'll have to wait an see what the show really is.

9. This is just the beginning. The media will try to trash Obama from now on. No hiding it.
If he is still close in the polls by November they will get desperate.

11. They asked McCain outright why he claims he only dated Cindy after
separation from his first wife when he was still living with wife #1 for months into his relationship with wife #2.

12. We've had ruthless Republicans from Texas tearing things down for the last 25 yrs
I'd be glad the have a ruthless Chocago Dem around to build things up for a few years.

He needs to sling some mud and kick some ass.

14. CNN??? Who watches that shit? I'm sure there's a rerun of Saved by the Bell on somewhere that
makes a helluva lot more sense that the whores are CNN.
