The best button on tv when the alphabet networks are on IS OFF. Gradually, gradually, liberalism crumbles and disappears with the likes of KKK Byrd, Swimmer Kennedy, and Miss America Pelosi. But there's still lots of work for us to do in balancing government. Judiciary has way too much power. Supreme Courts, federal and state, should be abolished. We don't need them to interpret the Constitution. We're quite capable ourselves. More local control!

Love Steyn bump!
Not quite correct, they offer two versions; neither of which are even remotely similar to competent and objective reporting.
Waiter: We have two menu choices, dog poop, or horse poop.
Customer: Yuck! I don't want either!
Waiter: But you have your choice you ingrate!
So true! The old-timey TV media simply can't compete wth 22 minutes of news a day, most of which is health news or anti-Bush/Republican material. Even the Spanish language stations talk about stuff from around the world.
The newspapers are no better. They protect their massive other assets and NEVER risk alienating ANY local boss. Here in Texas, Belo (Dallas Mourning News) will NEVER talk about the black thugs stealing the city blind as crime again makes it the murder capital of the country. To do so might alienate the next thug elected to whatever board who will order HIS minions to picket Belo's TV station or refuse to issue a permit to double the profit on an aging office complex.
Even CNN does a better job with the "news" than do the old=timey, non-competitive profit centers.
Sick humor, but funny still! Can't someone convince Styen to run for something?
The Associated press is like the very fat, ugly, girl.. who thinks the best way to attract guys is to wear a smaller bikini.
Geeze I hate the press.
But in the midst of that unreadable sludge of clichés, the APs desert bard came up with one unreadable sludgy cliché that gets the gist of their Iraq coverage better than anything: almost as if scripted. Isnt that precisely the problem? It is pre-scripted. The good folk of Basra and Kirkuk dont spring out of bed each morning saying, Ah, another day of hope, only to trudge off to dreamland 16 hours later wondering why yet again the day of hope turned into a day of tears, daring to sing yet another chorus of The Sunll Come Out Tomorrow but knowing deep down chances are the Sunnill come out tomorrow and blow up the schoolhouse.
Okay, one is a painted lady, the other is a tattoed lady.....
The choice is whether or not to have a cherry on your turd.
My day is now complete. Thanks the for ping, Pokey!
I notice that there isn't a single numeric figure in the second story.
Two versions of a lie - a lie, and a flowery lie.
When we invaded Iraq in phase I of the Iraqi war, the doomer and gloomer posters on Free Republic loved to past AP and Reuters BS to discredit our troops.
Most of them eventually got banned, there are a few left. I used to tangle with these pushers of gloom and doom via the AP/Reuters bs. Their reason for posting the gloom and doom bs was that it was news. Of course they had voted for GW since he was 2 years old.
For more clarification where most of the AP so called reporters are coming from, do a search with their name with Gay added on Yahoo search. Often they have been pushing the Gay Agenda for years, hate GW and conservatives 24/7.
The most revealing search was on Tom Hays, the Ass. Plick, who lied about republicans cheering when GW announced that Clintoon had been admitted to the hospital.
Below is that search. Hays is an long time out of the closet gay, who pushed the Gay agenda. One of his lovers was on the flight crew of one of the planes that took out the Towers on 9/11.

I like the term "Suicide Murderer" better. Every bomber is a homocide bomber, but I think the term suicide murderer is more correctly descriptive.
