"Today Show" gives McBride free advertising spot!

At 8:30 am EDT, I watched a long political ad, produced by the Today show, for Mr. McBride, the democratic candidate for Governor in Florida!

Every word favorable, and wonderful. He is the greatest, smartest guy! Not even a hint at anything other than wonderful! But, they were sure to include as many veiled insults against Jeb Bush as possible!

The show had an interview with Bush on last week. Of course that piece tried to paint Bush in as much as an unfavorable light as it could, without being obviously biased. It focused on how hard it is for Bush to win, and on his daughter's drug problems.

It was not a cheerleading piece like this one for McBride!

I am so tired of leftist tv! I would like to have a voice. I believe it is our right to have a voice in our government and society! I am tired of only the lefists having a voice! The lefists will not allow us to have representation in our own government---they block all votes on judges who share my views! They lie and slander all candidates who share my views----That is NOT the American way!

I WANT A VOICE IN THIS COUNTRY!!!

This type of ''non campagining, campagining'' will be the norm thanks to McCain and his wonderful campagin finance reform bill.

And they followed it up with a segment with Jane Goodall, hawking her new book about the environment, and how its worst now than it was when she was young. Its the standard mantra of the environmental movement., their Chicken Little, the sky is falling, and you should give us more contributions mantra.

She also mentioned the mining being done in Congo and its connection with cellphones. I bet all her envrionmental lobby lawyers have multiple cellphones each.

She also said that she travels 80-somedays out of a year. Hows that for a two-faced environmentalist. Doesn't she know that jetfuel she's using is harming the environment? ;)

And of course, the standard fuel-cell car and solar panel mantra. As if these technologies, after years of govt subsidies (solar) have suddenly become able to compete oil in energy density and cost per watt.

Yes, I saw that. They must constantly hammer home their propaganda! It makes me sick.
