They have some goddamn nerve, I'll tell ya.
CNN is pimping a story right now about how Gen. Wesley Clarke has released his military record to show he has support at the Pentagon - but, according to CNN, there is 'something missing.' According to their site, it has to do with lack of praise from the Pentagon while he was Supreme Allied Commander of NATO during the Kosovo campaign.
They've got some stones pointing out whatever's 'missing' in Clark's record, when the sitting 'president' is missing a whole goddamn year from his military record.
Hey, CNN - fair's fair. If you're gonna run a mild hatchet job on a soldier who has served honorably for 37 goddamn years, let's hear about Bush's missing year.
Hopefully, Clark will call them out on this smear, his former employment by CNN notwithstanding.

Funny how that period of May 1972 - May 1973 seems to have fallen into a Black Hole of Amnesia.
They're just a cheap pack of whores; mediawhores, all of 'em! Quick, get the KY jelly!

CNN is proving itself just another Foxnews. They should be proud. Bastages anyway

its very difficult to be this angry all the time. i wonder what it would be like to just not care? it seems to work for the rest of the country. how long can you have an extreem feeling of anger, rage, resentment, frustration and just plain nausea before you start to get numb? well, i guess its at least 3 years, becuase the news still makes me want to vomit and then strangle someone to death

by the way, how much coverage can they give the pope? for crist's sake, hes a senile ond man who is personally responsible for millions of cases of aids in africa, not to mention overpopulation, because he is actually spreading propaganda that condoms cause aids. dont get me wrong, im not anti catholic, my whole family is catholic, and if i have to put up with christians of any sort, i would chose to put up with catholics. however, the vaticans message of "use condoms and go to hell" is going to kill us all, africa cant feed the people who live there now, we dont need millions more, especially if they will be born with aids. condom use has certainly helped stop the spread of aids in this country, but maybe thats because we are educated enough to not take our sexual advice from an 84 year old gay virgin. Aids is the real story cnn should be covering, if they feel the need to talk about catholicism all fucking day

Justin,
Pope coverage? I'd rather watch that all day long than see yet another Special Report on Kobe Bryant. At least Il Papa is the leader of hundreds of millions of Catholics throughout the world. But this Kobe Kraze is pandering to the populace at its basest.

yeah, the pope coverage was what was on as i was typing that, so thats what i was pissed off about at the moment, if the kobe show had been on i probobly would have been complaining about that instead. in one way the kobe coverage is more interesting, because it shows what an utter sham the rape shield laws are. the laws in this country are totally unbalanced in favor of the accuser. i dont know whether he is guilty or not, but if that evidence isnt allowed into court, than it is a total miscarriage of justice. i know that a lot of women get raped and dont report it, but there are quite a few women who claim to be raped for whatever sick false reason as well. our justice system needs to be fair, but if it is going to be biased, it should be biased towards the defendant. a guilty person going free is much less of a sin than an innocent person going to prison for the rest of their life. most of the women i have known in my life have been raped at some point in their life, so i certainly know its a real problem, but the idea that this woman had pubic hair and semen from another man on her when she got the rape kit, (along with the fact that she snuck into his room, made out with him, and cant remember for sure if she actually said no) should be admissable in court. if its admissable in the pretrail, but not the trial, then it shouldnt go to trial. this country is so goddamn stupid, from the drug laws, to the real criminal laws, right down to the civil courts, it needs to be burnt down to the ground and rebuilt. the whole thing makes me sick. and thats all i have to say about kobe bryant (hell i didnt even really know who he was before this, i hate basketball)
