Hey, that was actually "fair and balanced" coming from the AP.
Hey AP .. you're gonna need a new set a knee pads after that article
didn't take much "twisting" to make him sound bad did it?
Kerry is just "twistin' in the wind"
No doubts here. They've shown their true colors before, but the "booing" story went over the top and SEARED their bias in my mind.
Dubya is just trying to let JFK know that he doesn't hate him, and to help him save face, is twisting his words into believable comments to make the race interesting.
It will however still be a Bush landslide!
So deductive logic as practiced by a Republican is now regarded as twisting words by the paleomedia. I'm thinking we need an AP internal investigation concurrent with the one at See BS.
Who twists what?
Bush is a piker compaired to Kerry's message-twisting-in-the-wind campaign and his out and out lies.
Bush repeated the attack later in the day and Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) echoed the message in Lafayette, La. "I must say I was appalled at the complete lack of respect Senator Kerry showed for this man of courage," Cheney said.
Kerry's point was that the optimistic assessments of postwar Iraq from both Bush and Allawi didn't match previous statements by the Iraqi leader, nor the reality on the ground, and were designed to put the "best face" on failed policies.
"Facts can be stubborn things," said Kerry spokesman Phil Singer. "When there's a gap between the reality and the words coming out of the White House, we are going to point them out."
You left out the line where Kerry called him a puppet. Calling him a puppet for the US undermines his leadership.
This is the lead story in both TOP NEWS and US NEWS on Earthlink's NEWS/START PAGE. AP controls Earthlink's NEWS PAGE. The Associated (with Kerry) Press will keep this headline active through Tuesday next week.
I couldn't believe it when I saw this headline. That is completely outrageous and inappropriate. We should let AP know how we feel about this.
Especially considering in just the second paragraph they concede, "It was not unlike the spin that Kerry and his forces sometimes place on Bush's words."
Of course we've never seen any headline that says "Kerry Twists Bush's Words on Iraq."
The AP clearly has given up simply reporting the news and have gone into the campiagn public relations business. This is something you'd expect to hear from Howard Wolfson or Terry McAuliffe, not a news organization.
How many times have the Democrats "stated flatly" that Bush was AWOL from Guard duty in Alabama even though he met all the mandatory requirements, had the points required for good standing, and was given an honorable discharge?
When has the AP called the Democrats on that false charge and proclaimed "but that's not true."
I'd like to see that.
Somebody had to straighten them out.
Nice pair of kneepads you've got there, Jennifer.
I wonder why AP has called out John Kerry and his pack of spinners on the line that "Dick Cheney is still getting a paycheck from Halliburton", even showing a clip of his latest tax records to ostensibly prove the point.
However, Kerry is lying. Flat out lying. Dick Cheney is NOT getting a paycheck from Halliburton. It's called deferred compensation. It's money that was earned, and deferred, when he was CEO of the company. It's quite common among corporate executives.
But Kerry knows his gullible band of Bush-Cheney haters probably don't know that, being as anti-capitalist as they are, and are likely to believe any false accusation about Bush-Cheney-Halliburton.
"and made Kerry seem supportive of deposed dictator Saddam Hussein."
Would someone please inform sKerry that if he's not AGAINST Saddam, he's FOR him?!!!
