Oreilly is on his show right now with Dick Morris bashing the ad...calling it dispicable.
O'Really and Penis Morris are slamming it now.
But have someone throw out an anti Bush ad and the media gushes over it like it's gospel.
They are the propaganda arm of the enemy within.
Who needs the lamestream when we have the internet?
Can we get Mr. Scafie to buy the New York Times for us?
Like Rush said, they started it. If Kerry wants to make Viet Nam an issue, then let's have a look back at it.
Check out these very spot-on related articles at National Review Online BobJ:

FOX media calls THE TRUTH....IS DISPICABLE?..
Bwahahahaha.....FOX NEWS failure to report the news and still calling itself a news agency
instead of a PROPAGANDA MINISTRY FOR PROFIT
IS DISPICABLE
IMO
Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, and locally (Apollo Astronaut/talk show host) Walter Cunningham have all supported the veterans.
I turned on the alphabet networks tonight and there was NO coverage (although it had been covered by ABC and CBS on radio news updates every hour).
NBC did have time to cover the Bruuuuce Springsteen, Dave Matthews Band, et al Millionaires For The Billionaire - Useful Idiots 2004 Tour.

Vietnam veterans accuse Kerry of civilian abuses
By David Rennie in Washington
(Filed: 06/08/2004)
A group of Vietnam veterans launched an assault on Senator John Kerry's war record yesterday as the fight for the presidency turned ugly.
Thirteen men from the naval patrol squadron in which Mr Kerry served, calling themselves "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth", appeared in a television advertisement accusing him of claiming falsely to be a hero.
John Kerry: accused of civilian abuse during the Vietnam war
They said he lied to win his gallantry medals and alleged that he committed abuses against civilians in the Mekong Delta [excerpt]
This one is going to reverberate for a while. I'm afraid that it will allow Kerry to play the victim in an attempt to soften future Bush attack ads, knowing that negative ads are coming on Kerry's term as Dukakis' Lt. Governor, and his two decades in the Senate.

The media gimps are biased as h3ll on the Swift boat stuff.
Part of it is marching orders....and part of it is the letter sent out by DNC LAWYERS to media groups.
Greg Knap on KLIF 570 in Dallas read the letter today.
It basically said they would file suit against the media types if the mentioned the ad and did not call it bogus.

Its amazing how all the media folks spent weeks on end digging into the completely false claims made against Bush's Guard Service.
YET THEY WON'T EVEN TOUCH THE SWIFT BOAT VETS FOR TRUTH STORY.
And these guys were there. There are actually witnesses to the charges being made against Kerry.
Maybe it's time to put some pressure on some of the mega corporations about buying out a few of these news organizations. They need to understand that they are sinking through the floor right now because nobody is buying their BS. Yes, they still have a residual influence, but someone needs to buy them out, put a conservative in charge of the newsroom, and start firing anyone who produces anything that slants.
Nowhere near as far as it sounds like you're willing to go.
AND SHOUTING DOESN'T HELP YOUR CASE.
Slowly but surely, we're winning the media war. Be patient. It took the left 75 years to gain control of the media (and education) even with a well though out plan begun by the 1930's reds.
Fox News wasn't even a Factor in 96, and barely on the radar in 2000.
As for O'Reilly, he likes to grandstand against the right on occasion merely to support his claims of non-partisianship. But he DOES respond to mashing from us, as note his turn around re WMD that he initially went after Bush on.
Don't stop watching O'Reilly, because if we all left he would join the Dems. O'Reilly is after audience, and if we stick with him, he'll stick with us.
Must be a lot of peeps going to the swiftvets site to check out what all the fuss is about because I have not been able to get through for awhile. Site must be getting hammered.
Lasting ascendancy is impossible. Prevailing political sentiment swings left and right with the passing of generations. Enjoy our time on top, work to prolong it if you can, but don't make the mistake of thinking that you can break the natural political cycle.
I agree. The media is almost always our enemy. But things have come a long way since I started paying attention in the early eighties. There is much to be done, but the momentum is in our favor. And thank God for the net.
