CNN actually casts Bush in a negative light... sort of.
http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/09/16/kerry.thurs/index.html

"Bush spoke to the group Tuesday and noted, as he does in almost every campaign stop, that Kerry and running mate John Edwards joined most members of the Senate to give him authority in 2002 to wage war.

He said Kerry and Edwards later voted against money for the war, but did not mention that he threatened to veto a version of the defense bill that Kerry supported because it proposed to finance the expenditures by eliminating tax cuts for wealthy Americans."


The headline of the story is "Kerry: Bush lives in 'world of spin' on Iraq" -- I TOLD YOU GUYS THAT STUPID DUMBED DOWN SOUNDBITE QUOTES WORK. :)

1. Yes and Bush's malfeasance has to be labeled with a memorable...

soundbite like "A Constipated Conservative" or "A Reformer with Hemorrhoids." And it has to be repeated a million times by every democrat until the "undecideds" start to hear it going round and round in their heads like some 60's bubble gum song that won't go away.

2. They are still touting their stupid, out of step poll though...
Amazing that. It's the only national poll that does not show the race as a dead even heat. What, they've got Bush something like still 12 points ahead? Who do they think they are fooling? Sheez, only the Shrubbies like theirs... they even said so this a.m., but it sure looks like they are sticking by it.

Let 'em promote it, it must makes them look more like the whores they really are. :evilgrin:
