DEMONIZING CONDI

By

Michelle Malkin

  ·   October 26, 2005 06:41 AM

Check out the photo of Condoleezza Rice that was published by USA Today last week:

Beelzebub Condi

Notice anything peculiar about her eyes?

(Click on the Extended Entry for an explanation.)

No, Condi isn't possessed; the photo was manipulated.

This news comes courtesy of From The Pen, which found a pre-doctored version of the Associated Press photo on Yahoo! España:

Beautiful Condi

Ask USA Today's Graphics and Photos Managing Editor, Richard Curtis (rcurtis@usatoday.com), what the ^$%#@+! is going on.

Actually, this is good news.

If the Gannett Gang thinks she is important enough to attack, they must view her as a serious threat to their Commie "golden girl" and Lady President in waiting, Hitlery.

The zombietime article is interesting (as is the site). That would make a good thread on FR.

That's nothing new in the MSM.

Bush was portrayed as the religious zealot some time ago. Many pictures showed him in front of a cross. They would even take such pictures (archived) and put them into articles about speeches elsewhere. Idea was to portray him as a fanatical Christian.

The media doesn’t report the happenings anymore. They create the news Dan Rather style or feel it is there duty to spoon feed us the meaning and significance of events in a huge editorial labeled as "news".

Our MSM is trash. Complete garbage.

I know you meant me. Bush knows nothing that he could teach me other than to never vote for a drunken sailor again.
