Can't the media recognize a diversion when they see it?

I had a lot of work to do today, so that's why the posts are down. But i did watch cable news all day, and I'll re-state the obvious - the media may as well be a herd of cattle.

Bush came out and floated his bogus Constitutional Amendment Scheme, and from that moment on you'd think that O.J. Simpson, Chandra Levy and Osama bin Laden had been attacked by sharks while trying to smuggle weapons of mass destruction into Scott Peterson's jail cell.

What have we come to when the media in this country is distracted by any remotely shiny thing that's dangled in front of them? This put me in a crabby-ass mood, I'll tell ya.

Oh, Christ, the Sharks* are back!? I can't wait for that prime-time, 4-four CNN special report.

oh no! and didn't Janet Jackson's right breast assist, because it is after all part of the decline of western civilization

LOL Metro! I was going to post a long intricate riff about Martha Stewart, Kobe Bryant, Jeff Skilling, Robert Blake, Vladimir Putin, Mel Gibson, steroids, Ralph Nader, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Janet Jackson's breast, Jesus, and Dick Cheney's current Undisclosed Location, but I am laughing too hard to make up a plot line for the story.

It's all your fault. And Leonard Bernstein's and Shakespeare's, but that's another matter. :-)

This gay union thing is a deversion from lying about WMD's, the bad economy and on the creditabliity lacking Bushit administration. I don't care if the gays get married. At least they love each other. Leave them alone in peace to persue any life style they want. It's none of our business. And don't let Bushit make you think it's your business. The real issue is three million lost jobs and over 500 lost lives of our servicemen for a war caused by these lying basterds to make billions for Haliburton in no bid contracts.

BUSH found WMD on Sept 11th when we as americans were in shock!
Weapons of Mass Distraction, can see the (gollam bush) wringing his hands saying "I know Iraq is about as incongruent as a country can be to Osama's message but i WILL tie them together, i see victory! We'll let someone else find Sadaam if we can't and claim/by insinuation (we're pro's at that) that WE found him.
WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRACTION, and why? "CUZ THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE JUST THAT DUMB!"
Meanwhile Madeleine Albright made a very educated and insightful speculation that Bush ALREADY has Osama and is waiting for the most opportune time to claim it.
That my friends would explain his constant Cat ate the canary grin.
Now i'm going to infiltrate the Repub sites as they are beginning to wake up and i don't want them going back to sleep.
Time to UNITE go Independent and show BOTH parties Americans are NOT as dumb as they would believe or hope!

Wooops! Did Not mean to post that twice. I humbly apologize.

Funny how the Naderites are now avoiding using his name in messageboards and comments, isntead saying the generic 'independant'.

If I hear one more person say there is no difference between the two parties I'm gonna snap. The last 3 years PROVE there is a hell of a difference. Yeah, the Dems aren't perfect. but right now, I'd rather have Perfect But Not Evil than four more years of Evil Incarnate.

Unless you WANT 4 more years of Bush, maybe a few lifetime appointments to the SCOTUS of people like Ashcroft, more religious backed amendments, Orwellian doublespeak laws so we can 'punish the Democrats'... but if thats the case, well, that's pretty sadistic and counter productive.

We need to change the Dem party from the bottom up. Run true progressives for local and state campaigns and get involved in the local Dem party apparatuses. SOlidify power THERE. Then move on to national campaigns for congress. Then move on to the Senate. That's where the power is, not in an ego trip run for the presidency every year that does nothing but make a joke out of the leftist parts of the party.
