Here's a very nice developing October Surprise:
Unmasked Men (Saddam/bin Laden connection documents)

MAN, I WISH someone would put out a commercial this year that just shows the 9-11 footage, no voice-over, nothing, just the planes hitting the towers, the people running, the towers collapsing. Then, at the end, just a chiron that says "Just wanted to remind you what it's all about," nothing about Bush or Kerry or anyone else. Who could call that a pro-Bush or anti-Kerry commercial? The embargo on 9-11 footage that the media outlets have been engaged in is nothing less than criminal. For such an important issue to be hidden away is a crime, and I cna see no other reason it's being done than to help the Democrats.
What good is an October surprise if most of the population never hears about it?MSM won't print it or air it.

The White House may issue a statement about it.
They'll have to if the DNC decides to "question the timing".
The Dems must be biting their tongues on whether to
attempt to make this go away by ignoring it.
You underestimate the emerging power of the newmedia.
If this is credible, it will be all over talk radio
on Monday, and those listeners will spread it at the
water cooler. Do your part in chatting with associates.
> MSM
I prefer to call them the legacy media. They are not
"mainstream", and their day is passing.
Pravda Press is accurate, too.
BUMP

We really DO need to stop referring to them as the MSM.
Lame-stream media - LSM? No, it needs to be something not quite so derogatory.
Old-stream media - OSM? This is better because it doesn't negate their rightful place in American history, but at the same time makes it clear they ARE history. They are no long "main stream."
I'm sure someone else with come up with something better.
with = will
I am always amazed when I hear stories like this but my thanks and prayers double for our soldiers like this.
It says a lot about President Bush that he doesn't talk about the many men that have stayed in with severe injuries and instances such as this. It might help him in the election but I don't think his "integrity" would allow him to exploit these brave men and women. God Bless them all.

Email this to anyone who has forgotten.
How they pursuaded Dan Rather to take the fall for Kerry is another story.
Like Cheney's use of the term "Old Europe".

--MSM won't print it or air it.--
If Bush himself said it often and loudly they would have to print it.
How about Yesterday's Old Media, or YOM.
Then, while they comtemplate their navels, they can use the sound as a mantra.
YOM
YOM
AW CRAP
YOM
It might help to make them feel better as they fade into the sunset.
That sounds perfect to me. Thanks! (see new tagline)
BTW, does anyone besides me have trouble condensing a tagline down to 98 spaces? It sounds like plenty of acreage until you start typing it. :-)
See? That's what I'm talking about. (Nothing directed at you, Cubs Fan).
Even calling them the "MSM" denotes a certain amount of respect they no longer deserve, in my ever-so-humble opinion.
Just typing it makes me feel dirty, much less saying it.
