I remember watching TV late in the afternoon on the 11th and hearing Peter Jennings wondering out loud where our President was. Didn;t we all feel a bit confused and concerned about if or when another plane might hit another building? Yet, here is the great (sic) Peter Jennings blathering on about how in a time of crisis we need to see our President.It still raised the bile in my throat when I think of it.
Earlier today, CBS elected to "politicize" or at least substantially editorialize what had otherwise been a decent 9/11 memorial by talking about an attack on Iraq.The media in this country drives me crazy. They no longer wish to simply report the news, instead, they continually wish to grandstand with little (or big) snippets of their own spew.
Sorry for the vanity rant, but I will never forget or forgive Peter Jennings for his idiocy that day!

Sorry, but there it is.
Is this the woman who put meaning to the words, "Nobody likes you" by doing Richard Cohen?
Led to Petah tearing out all that hair, making his head all shiny on top.
Of course, I'd prefer to see little Peter hacked with a dull cleaver and stuffed back against his tonsils, but a good cuckolding will suffice.
Then, on NBC, Matt Lauer asked Tom Brokaw how Bush gets along with the military, and old Tom launched into a tirate about how there had "been some concerns" about Bush when he first took over, seeing as how there was some question about his military service, with people beleiving he tried to avoid the draft and wondering whether he served all his National Guard time.
Unreal.
Ask yourself this question...."can you name one despotic dictator who ever dicided to give up his evil ways?" Just go ahead and try to name one who has reformed himself....Hitler, no....Stalin, no....Pol Pot, no...Arafat, ha that is a joke!...Idi Amin, no way, Baby Doc? nope...Sorry the leopards don't change their spots. Why are we wasting all this time and energy believing that Hussein is not going to do something evil in the future?
We aren't. What we are really doing is trying to delay any kind of action until after the elections. You see, the RATS are afraid that if we go to war, Bush might look good, which in turn might get Pubbies elected. Rats are desparate to keep the focus on economy, business scandals, etc. that they can blame on Pubbies! They are scared to death they might lose control of the Senate!
