Actually it was typical selective editing. Bush was discussing his amazement at a new technology generation of scanners that had the ability to “fix” scuffed or torn bar codes and accurately scan them.

The media edited that part out to show him as an elitist snob.

Yes, I read that defense of Bush as well in my two minutes of research on this so-called myth.

But that is not what is recorded in the video. The milk carton isn’t torn, and Bush waves his hand over the glass scanner in amazement at the technology, not at its ability to read torn labels.

The Media deliberately threw that election to Bill Clinton. I watched it happen. I cannot remember how many utterly biased stories were put on the air about George HW Bush, and how the media fell all over themselves covering up the nasty things that kept coming out about Bill Clinton. They spent nearly a year running down the economy as we headed into that election. Every day they would run stories about how terrible was the economy, complete with video of shuttered factories and people standing in unemployment lines. Utterly f***ing biased.

1992 was the year I learned that the Greatest threat to our lives and Freedom was that New York originated Media companies staffed by nothing but Liberal propaganda agents who wanted to steer elections.

These people also threw the election to Obama with the same sort of biased coverage and reporting.

The existing media needs to be destroyed and scattered. We need objective people in those positions of influence, not the liberal hacks that currently work there.
