Exerpt from Washington Post:
Cheney Defends Use Of Four-Letter Word Retort to Leahy 'Long Overdue,' He Says
By Dana Milbank and Helen Dewar Washington Post Staff Writers Saturday, June 26, 2004; Page A04

Vice President Cheney on Friday vigorously defended his vulgarity directed at
a prominent Democratic senator earlier this week in the Senate chamber.

Cheney said he "probably" used an obscenity in an argument Tuesday on the Senate floor with
Patrick J. Leahy (D-Vt.) and added that he had no regrets.

Please go to Drudge's page and check it out. Sorry, I cannot link the Macro Media ad...
I am disgusted...why, I don't know after all this time watching the rats sink deeper and deeper...

I am positive that these web-site businesses (Drudge, Washington Post, whatever) would gladly take the RNC's money for campaign pop-up ads. Personally, I think it's time for the GOP to get on that bandwagon. Unless, like me, they believe that pestering people with shameless and annoying pop-up ads is actually counterproductive and turns people off.

It is all the media's delusional world view.

Their worldview is that Democrat is "normal". Never mind that the majority of the US population is conservative.

If you watch the leftists media, you will see thay are in spin overdrive. Any view that is not leftist is portrayed as insane or lying.

Even commercials for years have followed the notion, dad=stupid, mom=smart.

The RAT plan is clear. While RAT cadidates and their editorial and "news" writing allies start calling for more civility in politics (they are singing in a chorus right now), their hit squads like Michael Moore and MoveOn.org are doing the dirty work, allowing the candidates to act above it all. It's just a variation of the "changing the tone in Washington" campaign that Bush used only with less honesty. It's not all that creative, but it is terribly disingenuous.

Guess what's really at work here...

Free Trade. Commerce. Capitalism.

It's called buying advertising placement.

Are you at all surprised that the Dems would buy space in a location where Dems would be likely to view it?

The same thing could be said for Bush ads running on, or all places - gasp - FoxNews Channel. Does it mean that they are in cahoots? I don't think so.

Not everything is a vast left-wing-media in cahoots with the 'Rats conspiracy.

I'm not sure what your question is here. Political candidates can buy ads on certain pages just like anyone else. If the Bush campaign had asked and paid, they'd have the ad on that page.
