[Taxman]

CBS News -- forged documents et al!

[clyde260]

Another BUMP, as time runs out.

[Flora McDonald]

Two hours left to vote. No St. Louis judge available to keep the polls open late today."

I protest this outrageous voter intimidation tactic. The poll should be open at least until 10 pm.

When I turned down my street this morning, there was a Sheriff's car moving slowly past my house. The fact that he lives across the street is irrevelant.

It was hours before I could muster up the courage to even attempt to enter my house and turn on the computer. And now I can't vote.

.....Just what are we voting for anyway?

[LisaFab]

Pitts, The NY Times and of course, Dan, Dan the News Man.

Great job as usual. Don't have too much fun tonight!

[kristinn]

Thanks. Which NY Times nomination?

[kristinn]

Volley bump.

[kristinn]

Thanks. We'll be in street clothes, as usual. There's a good chance of rain this afternoon.

[Exit148]

A 'time is going by ---get your votes in' BUMP!

[ScreamingFist]

My votes for Fahrenheit 911, the pretendomentary.

[kristinn]

Less than ten minutes to go bump.

[clyde260]

I think this is the last chance bump!

[kristinn]

Yep. Polls are closed now. I thinks it's safe to say the exit polls point to CBS News in a landslide.

Thanks to all who voted. Winners will be posted on FR tomorrow.

[Killborn]

Gratis! GMTA ;)

[kingu]

CBS gets my first vote, second to good old GI Joe.

As for Michael Moore's piece of trash, I respectfully submit that you're granting him far too high a position - that wasn't news, never was news, and treated it even as faux news -- why not just include Kitty Kelly's missives for the cat box?

[purpleland]

My vote for the (deliberate)COWARDLY-PARTISAN SLANDER OF AN U.S. PRESIDENT which is a vicious hate-crime and is traitorous: Rather and CBS.

[zip]

No St. Louis judge available to keep the polls open late today.

And no dead St Louis bodies to file the suit as they did in the aforementioned election.

[meandog]

Guiliana Sgrena! Unfortunately for the commie propaganda specialist, Satellite imagery has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that the automobile was traveling at double the rate of speed she claims... The spy in the sky also picked up the first shots fired (warnings) and proved the soldiers fired shots far in advance of what she claims so her whole pack of lies more resembles an Iraqi IED than the truth.

[samtheman]

What Rather and CBS did was worse than Watergate. They'll never have to pay for their crimes, but they get my vote on this thread.

[StarCMC]

I vote for

Edward Lee Pitts, of The Chattanooga Times Free Press, for manipulating a Q&A between soldiers and Sec. Rumsfeld in order to make news. As reported by Drudge.



Why? Because they are still getting away with it.

[mlmr]

There are SOOO many good ones here...difficult to choose.

Next year see if this can go up on the sidebar...
