Ah, but the fact that Cheney "did do" it wasn't apparent until AFTER the media pressed him for a response. Until then, it was just an accusation. They never pressed Kerry for a response, even though there was an accusation of that incident as well. |
Except it was previously reported, and quoted from a variety of senators, which I'd assume could be considered relatively reliable sources. |

Isn't the whole point that you are ? :)
It is amazing though that with almost the entire media engine stacked against them that republicans ever win...

You also had me going until you got to the punch line :)

i think when it comes to voting most people mostly go with there party side, disregarding the actual challenger. and why the hell does it have to be a competition of sides and money and advertising, slander towards the other candidate, tricks and foul play. why dont they just stfu w/ the fighting and do public debates and 'question and answer' public assemblies. |
I have to agree with you on that point.

I have to agree with you on that point, too.

You are, as always, entitled to you opinion on that.
But I like your points.

Dang it! I thought I'd be the first to propose that Bush probably has a plan for postponing the election and to declare martial law, assuming al Qaeda comes through with the predicted pre-election attack.
But noooooo ... CBS Radio (at least!) has outed the story already ...
Now, of course I realize that this (and every administration) has contingency plans covering almost every eventuality, so I guess I mean that this may well be the first administration seriously considering the implementation of such a plan ... I suppose we'll have to wait for the October poll numbers to know how much weight to give this latest threat to our democracy.
Sorry if this is the wrong Rant ... I skimmed along until I came to something about voting in the upcoming election ... :) |
