Local news whoring for the Bush administration
I'm so angry I could spit. I was watching local news (CBS affiliate), and under their heading of 'Campain 2004' they had 5 minutes of * trashing Kerry, 0 time for Kerry.

They call it 'national coverage'. I call it whoring for the Bush administration.

1. Are you in a Sinclair Broadcasting area?
Their bias was revealed a few months ago when they refused to air Koppel's tribute to the dead soldiers in Iraq.

8. I don't know why
but when I think of that state I think of a slightly less psychotic Saudi Arabia.

4. I would logically think that

"News People" would feel a responsibility like no other now to report the truth on what is happening in the bush cabal.

I'd be Wrong! We need a Sea Change..this cannot go on!!

What do they think is going to be the end result of "four more years"? Four more years of what? Dragging the US econmomy Down!

Having the People so poor they can't afford cable? How many Million and Billionaires are there? They can't hold up this economy!

Four more years of going into more Countries with Bombs..killing our young, middle age, and old People. Four more years of Terrorists swarming into Iraq and the Middle East Exploding from the powder keg that bush wrought!

I saw a clip on c-span this morning that showed in a newspaper article about the billionaires who were funding some ads for bush ..and this ad is saying..

"bush didn't start this war but he's going to finish it..!!

How Orwellian is that? And they expect people to buy that crap!!

6. If Man or Monkey get four more years..
the fucking media and all the numbnuts that vote for him will be responsible for the consequences. How does anyone whore for Chimpy's Imperialist PNAC agenda, mouth all the lies and bullshit and after all come away with a clear conscience?
