The MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION STORIES the Media will NEVER tell
After reading these stories and looking at the Bush HATE in the media, it really makes someone wonder just how sick, twisted, and deranged the Mainstream media has become.

http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/a/ashley.htm

In a moment largely unnoticed by the throngs of people in Lebanon waiting for autographs from the president of the United States, George W. Bush stopped to hold a teenager's head close to his heart.

Lynn Faulkner, his daughter, Ashley, and their neighbor, Linda Prince, eagerly waited to shake the president's hand Tuesday at the Golden Lamb Inn. He worked the line at a steady campaign pace, smiling, nodding and signing autographs until Prince spoke:

"This girl lost her mom in the World Trade Center on 9-11."

Bush stopped and turned back.

"He changed from being the leader of the free world to being a father, a husband and a man," Faulkner said. "He looked right at her and said, 'How are you doing?' He reached out with his hand and pulled her into his chest."

Faulkner snapped one frame with his camera.



"I could hear her say, 'I'm OK,' " he said. "That's more emotion than she has shown in 2 1/2 years. Then he said, 'I can see you have a father who loves you very much.' "

"And I said, 'I do, Mr. President, but I miss her mother every day.' It was a special moment." Special for Lynn Faulkner because the Golden Lamb was the place he and his wife, Wendy Faulkner, celebrated their anniversary every year until she died in the south tower of the World Trade Center, where she had traveled for business.

The day was also special for Ashley, a 15-year-old Mason High School student, because the visit was reminiscent of a trip she took four years ago with her mother and Prince. They spent all afternoon in the rain waiting to see Bush on the campaign trail. Ashley remembers holding her mother's hand, eating Triscuits she packed and bringing along a book in case she got bored.

But this time was different. She understood what the president was saying, and she got close enough to see him face to face.

"The way he was holding me, with my head against his chest, it felt like he was trying to protect me," Ashley said. "I thought, 'Here is the most powerful guy in the world, and he wants to make sure I'm safe.' I definitely had a couple of tears in my eyes, which is pretty unusual for me."

The photo has been circulating across the country, Faulkner said. Relatives have passed it on to friends, bosses and acquaintances. As they tell the story, they also share in Wendy Faulkner's legacy, which her family continues through the Wendy Faulkner Memorial Children's Foundation.

"I'm a pretty cynical and jaded guy at this point in my life," Faulkner said of the moment with the president. "But this was the real deal. I was really impressed. It was genuine and from the heart."

HOW TO DESTROY the Mainstream Media machine

Send a message like the one below to EVERYONE you know, and POST IT on Newsgroups EVERYWHERE!:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Subject: The MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION STORIES about Bush that the NEWS will NEVER TELL YOU!

Message Body:
After reading these stories, you really need to ask yourself, and everyone you know WHY won't they tell these stories?

These stories have been verified...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The News media SURVIVES based on its credibility and believability. Once that credibility is damaged, it begins to collapse and self-destruct. Viewership drops, ratings fall, advertisers pull out or rates decrease. It becomes a downward spiral that is difficult to recover from.

Turning this message above into a widespread distribution, WITHOUT much comment (so that even Dems might read it), begins to undermine the News media. It points out their bias and hate without having to tell the public... That my friends is POWERFUL! Start an internet campaign to spread this around and coming into the elections in 2.5 weeks the media propaganda machine will melt down.

Here's the deal, EVEN if by some chance Kerry were to win, once the public gets hold of this message, and sees the media hate and propaganda machine even AFTER a Kerry presidency, they'll be INFURIATED over the propaganda and deception. In fact, they might even be MORE infuriated by having been so deceived.

What it comes down to is the NATIONAL MEDIA HAS ALREADY taken that issue up. They have aired story after story about fallen troops and do not report ANYTHING that is positive.

DO NOT let that stop ANYONE from getting these stories out!!! The opposition HAS been adopting this strategy, THAT'S WHERE I GOT THE IDEA FROM! They've been doing it with the draft on college campuses (with blasts to college student e-mails), and all over the country...

REPUBLICANS AND CONSERVATIVES NEED TO GROW A SPINE AND STOP WORRYING ABOUT "THEY MIGHT TRY THAT TOO!!" THEY'RE ALREADY DOING IT AND WITH LIES AND PROPAGANDA!! IT'S TIME IT WAS COUNTERED WITH TRUTH!!

P.S. And not timid, whiney, "we're so sorry" truth either! The brutal honesty of how sick the liberal left has become!! People need a CLEAR choice. Not a mousy one. Look at Bush's ratings improve AFTER he got aggressive!

The quickest way to destroy the MSM is to stop buying their products. Cancel ALL newspaper AND MAGAZINE subscriptions, don't buy anything put out by the MSM or it's masters.

Get yourself a high speed broadband Internet connection, and if you have money left a shiny new multimedia generic PC to use on the net.

Be happy.

A Very utopian attitude.. Actually any deceived are deceived because they WANT to be deceived.. Most people believe what they WANT to believe it has nothing to do with logic or available information.. Consider election 2000, half the people voted for ALGore a known and well documented moron... The people voting for Kerry are doing so because they refuse to believe he is lying, traitorous, empty suit.. eventhough everything that comes out of his mouth supports that FACT.. Denial is only a river in Egypt if spelled differently, a fact missed by most Kerry voters..
