we are tuely living in an alternative universe than reality due to the media’s twisting of the truth. Bush has had a remarkably successful term in many areas, but the majority do not know we have been in an extended economic growth period, that we have changed the battlefield to curtail terrorist activities, and smaller successes like this one. Instead, we are likely saddled with a depressing matchup of Hillary vs McCain, which is exciting to few on either side...and Hillary will probably win due to the ‘failures’ of the Bush administration.

I agree on every point except the last. Hillary will win because she stole FBI files on everyone and will use them to make sure she wins. Tin foil hat securely in place, thank you.

Upon completion of the President’s term, the White House needs to publish a comprehensive list of his accomplishments, large and small. I imagine it would be as thick as a metropolitan phone book, even without the accomplishments which must of necessity be kept secret. The media’s obfuscation of the good the President has done, in favor of cynical criticism, is just reprehensible.

Yes, and most Christians have not even been able to break the media’s hold on their own lives. I am so glad that we’ve lived overseas the past 23 years. I get my news from the internet, having the chance to read the news from a variety of sources. It gives it better perspective. I learned years ago just how distorted the ‘news’ is and we quit watching ‘TV news’ back in the 70s. People with good intentions and who are honest in their daily lives still believe that TV is the best source and if it wasn’t true they wouldn’t be able to say it on the air. Just goes to show you how easy it is to set in an idea.

This was a good read! Thanks to the one who posted it.

Either one will squander W's accomplishments.
