    Conservatism means never having to take responsibility.

    I’m pretty sure it was Bush. He took it out of the box and was playing with it. Then he got distracted by Milk and Cookie time. Now he just can’t remember where it is! He apparently needs another 20,000 troops to find it though.

    Have you heard about a group called ‘Accuracy in Media’ (www.aim.org)? They have opposed the english version of Al-Jazeera TV because they are “anti-american”. So being a media organisation not in sinc with the whitehouse is ‘inaccurate’?

    AIM is smaller less influential organization like MRC focused on “liberal bias” in the media. Their top guy is Cliff Kincaid, who has a problem with er… lying.

    Nevertheless, IMO the MSM media is overwhelmingly liberal, hated and hates Bush and di not like the Iraq war. “defeating” the war thereby accomplishes two of their most fervently sought goals. A failing of Bush and the NEocons, in my book, was leading us into Iraq and evidently not being fully aware that the MSM would fight him and the AMerican people each little step along the way. A consensus is only buildable if the media approves of the situation.

    Well if it’s in Dugger’s opinion, it must be true.

    Dugger forgets the MSM failed to investigate or inform the public of the many Bush BS Iraq claims before the war. He also forgets how orgasmic it was for them to have ‘embedded’ reporters etc. And toppling Hussein statues etc etc. Dugger, Bush was unable to hold the rosy narrative. No WMDs, rising violence, corruption, Abu Ghraib, dead US soldiers, torture, etc etc etc, soon became the context of the war. Some US Company painting over the bullet holes in some school that the kids are too scared to attend just doesn’t hold the reporters interest anymore.

    Its hard to write an article detailing some nice and fuzzy story of a kid reuniting with his lost dog over the rubble of his apartment building when his sister and mother are entombed in that rubble or the story has to end with a by-the-way 42 headless corpses were found today and 5 marines were killed by a roadside bomb.

    Remember Jeffrey Dahmer? Dugger must have noticed how the media focused entirely on the bad side and did little to inform the public of the good side to him.

    We heard all about the body parts in his freezer, but little about his joy in providing temporary shelter to runaways. Or how he liked to pass out pot pies to his hungry neighbors. Or the ducks he fed down in the park.

    I don’t recall too many stories about how nice he was with his co-workers or the enjoyment he got out of listening to talkshow radio host Rush Limbaugh. Nope just alot of stories about body counts and cannabilism and all the negative stories.

    Dude, in your opinion, cheeseburgers are overwhelmingly liberal.

    Cheeseburgers are a high fat content food. The MSM are all human beings – most all liberal.
