A pro-UN blog. That's pitiful. OTH, maybe they printed the posters for Baby Assad's demonstrators! [see above] LOL!At the U.N., 'beating a wave with a hammer'
Ted Turner 's $1 billion U.N. Foundation, formed to support the United Nations and fund do-gooder projects, is screaming "enough already" at conservative and media critics of the scandals at the world body. Fueled by the oil-for-food controversy, U.N. bashers have been pounding the New York City-based organization, and now Turner's group is helping the U.N. fight back. "The foundation," says spokeswoman Debra DeShong, "is getting the truth out." And it's doing that on the critics' turf: Internet blogs. "This is the newest and most influential media, and the right wing really does it well," she says. "It's like beating back a wave with a hammer."But hammering away they are, with the blog www.undispatch.com, Internet ads, and now a campaign to get U.N. backers on radio and TV to debate the critics. "We're acting like a real campaign to talk up the United Nations," says DeShong. The bashers aren't backing off. "A pro-U.N. blog?" asks Jed Babbin, pundit and author of the anti-U.N. Inside the Asylum. "I'm surprised it isn't in French."
Democrats Disunited:
SEN. Chuck Schumer made a not-so-subtle dig against his colleague Sen. Hillary Clinton Friday at a town hall-type meeting at Pace University on the subject of Social Security. Pace President David Caputo introduced Sens. Harry Reid, Frank Lautenberg, Richard Durbin, and John Kerry — and noted the Pace stage had been used last year for a debate between all the Democratic presidential candidates. "In fact, one of them became the Democratic nominee," Caputo said. "Perhaps one of the senators on this stage today will become the Democratic presidential nominee in 2008." Though Caputo was clearly referring to Hillary, Schumer made a pronounced gesture pointing at Kerry, who looked embarrassed. Hillary looked straight ahead. (Page Six)
That's a shame.
"The foundation," says spokeswoman Debra DeShong, "is getting the truth out."
Uh, the truth is getting out dearie, that's why your "foundation" has to beat back the "wave," mercy, what a bunch of knuckleheads.
And it's doing that on the critics' turf: Internet blogs. "This is the newest and most influential media, and the right wing really does it well," she says.
Well, not to take any kudos away from the right wing but those lefties really make it easy. *snicker*
"It's like beating back a wave with a hammer."
And it's not like you all use a regular right wing hammer, y'all are beating back the wave of truth with that tried and true tool of the left... The whiffle hammer! aaahahahaha!
