Over the top or under the bottom?

Cannibals.

Gotta go to bed to be able to get up in time to see the inaugural festivities! Just think, last time I was one of the protestors!

BTW, I was there for the supposed suppression of free speech that idiot lawsuit was about. Actually all it amounted to was the cops blocking access to the parade route except for a few checkpoints. Once there, they confiscated the sticks on posters and banners, but let you keep said posters and banners and go on through. Other than that, no one interfered with us.

It was darned muddy, though. And cold.

The MMM limbo - how low can they go?

I 'replied' in their comment box. Haven't heard back yet. I wonder why.

Nothing but a bunch of low lifes.

And that's only the mainstream press. Just imagine the wailing in the leftist press about now.

Unfortunately, I'm not surprised. Nor even saddened. This is just what the MSM does - necrophilia.

Words fail me, beyond, "Thank you, Charles", and thanks to God for the blogosphere.

Well, dear Canuckistan has promised wall to wall blog coverage of the freaking sick and exploitative photo of the Iraqi girl crying in her parents' blood he so kindly posted on the Cox and Forum thread.

Our enemies will be having orgies in the blood of our soldiers and Iraqi civilians.

Lazytart: The Canadian Coward would NEVER post photos of the mass graves created by his buddy Saddam.

See, this is great. I'll bet we'll see these people retiring in droves. Left-wing journalism schools will have to lower their tuition to practically nothing. The mere mention of the word "blog" will have them collapsing into blubbering heaps of profound existential despair like Vincent D'Onofrio. What a beautiful time to be alive!

Yes, I'm sure that the MSM would be just as critical of Kerry on his inauguration day, had he won. After all, they'd want to be fair and impartial, right?

/s

ABC = Always Been Communists

This is plain evil. ABC news planned a sleazy smear to make it look like W is callous and even celebrates as soldiers die:

-Camera shows W dancing and partying in black tie at inaugural ball-

Announcer : Bush celebrated 4 more years in the White House.

-Camera cuts to crying mom at military funeral-

Announcer (in cheesily serious TV anchor voice) Meanwhile, others in America weren't celebrating. As Jane Doe wept for her son, yet another casualty in the Iraqi conflict which experts refer to as a quagmire.

Canuckistan no doubt feels the brutal murder of these people is an unfortunate necessity in the battle to bring down the BusHitler tyrant.

To the Idiot Left, the end ALWAYS justifies the means.

holy-fucking-shit !

This site never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think i've seen it all...BLAMMO

Keep it up, Charles, one day these assholes will fall hard, and it will be because of people like you and Captain Ed

...sick motherfuckers.

The mere mention of the word "blog" will have them collapsing into blubbering heaps of profound existential despair like Vincent D'Onofrio.

I don't watch much TV, especially lately, but I've liked D'Onofrio in "Law and Order" and thought he was great in "Men In Black", is he an idiotarian?

[An] Inquiring mind,s,/strike> want[s] to know.

Let it go, let it go, let it go...

The LLL press is digging its own hole...

Let it go...

PIMF

I'm invoking the Iron Fist rule on myself. Good night.

Can't say I'm surprised about this, and I don't think it's even necessarily part of a political agenda. TV news these days is about disaster and conflict, and feeding off emotion, especially grief. The British tab techniques have finally globalized in the post-Di universe. Of course a soldier's funeral makes a good contrast. This is for an audience that wallows in the Scott Peterson trial when it's bored with suicide bombers and tsunami victims.

I have a great idea for ABC. Shoot sadam and they can cover his funeral.

#18 abu_garcia

Those roles were as nothing compared to Gomer Pile in Full Metal Jacket..."I AM in a world of Shit"...

Considering that Bush's biggest blunder is his Iraq war, it's hardly surprising that media would seek to hightlight it during the inauguration. Is that bias? Well, it certainly presents a counterpoint to the narrative that the current power structure wants to present. Sounds like an appropriate posture for a critical media to take - unless you just want propagandistic cheerleading.

Its like a nightmare what these monsters are trying to do to our country. How are we going to stop them? How can this be stopped? This is not the America I love that allows this kind of crime to happen. Using the grieving families of our dead soldiers to take pokes and jabs at our President. For the sake of giggles at the cocktail bar. For the sake of satisfying warped minds. This is a crime against Americans.

The MSM is circling the drain because of their objectionable bias. I'm a news buff but I don't watch TV news, except for Fox Network... mostly the panel discussions. The only reason I get a newspaper at all is because my kid wants the funnies and the wife likes the local section. I get my news from the internet and all the articles from all the magazines I want. I also get interesting takes on interesting articles thanks to Charles at LGF.

I'm convinced that the reason God gave us computers was so that we would be able to telecommunicate.

I'm uninvoking the rule.

Dear POS Kelly Cooper,

...naaahhh f00kit, whoever Kelly is, don't feed the trolls

I can only hope that the press shows up at Kelly Coopers' sons funeral and use it as a backdrop to make a point.

"Excuse me, can you get out of the way, we need to get a shot of the coffin being lowered into the grave."

I'm kinda worried. I think I'm actually becoming numb when the MSM pulls crap such as this.

Is it a good sign I'm becoming numb? Or a bad sign? I can at least tell that these bottom feeders need to be stuck down and staked through the heart with silver to make sure they don't rise again.

I just don't know what audience they are aiming for.

I've noticed that the MSM have glommed onto a new buzzword phrase, "waves of violence".

And this is used, of course, in the incessant drumbeat of doom/gloom vitriol that oozes from their pores like pus from festering sores.

I'm guessing that waves was as close as they dared to go in trying to link greater negativity to our efforts in Iraq. Using "tsunami's of violence" would have been just a bit too much.

Don't you think?

Maybe we should declare unilateral full-scale war on the media before we even bother with trying to fix the problems in Syria, Iraq, North Korea, et al.

I've definitely had enough tonight, but when I sober up ABC is getting a nastygram from me. Suggest all lizardoids do the same.

These are truly vile P'esOS.

Geepers: Yep. I agree. If my child were to be betrayed and wrongfully murdered by a despotic regime, I hope that cameras would be there to record the grim consequences of the catastrophe.

No, wait. This is GREAT NEWS. The San Antonio Express-News Watch knew instinctively that it couldn't possibly reach an audience the size of a major blog a la Powerline (or LGF, for that matter) in time for inauguration day. And they acted on it.

Really. This is huge...a tremendous validation of the "new", truth-based media.

Then Kelly C

Why isn't ABC covering the terrorists' predations on civilians?

Wrong color? Dead brown non-Americans don't count?

all Lizardoids should post every single ABC email known so we can overflow their mailboxes with OUR comments

keep up the great work Charles

#25 Kelly Cooper  

Considering that Bush's biggest blunder is his Iraq war

What are you smoking?!?!? Liberating Iraq is W's biggest accomplishment.

History will recognize that by freeing Iraq, Bush:
1.) Saved NYC from an awful dirty-bomb/nuclear attack, saving the lives of 100,000's of thousands of New Yorkers.
2.) Within a decade or so, brought peace and democracy to Iran, Egypt, Syria, heck maybe just maybe even "Palestine".
3.) Thousands of Iraqis were spared mass graves.
4.) Hundreds of Iraqis were spared being fed into industrial shredders.
5.) Within 5 years, "George" will be the most popular name for male babies in Iraq.

Bush saving Iraq is as big a deal as winning D-Day. It is as big a deal as Reagan tearing down the Berlin Wall.

Kelly you know all this, you just won't admit it because you are a playa hater.

Kelly Cooper

So ABC putting out feelers to Americans to whomever's sons and daughters died in Iraq in combat is a good thing then?

To take advantage of people whose lives have been shattered FOR GOD DAMNED TV NEWS RATINGS, YOU IGNORANT SLUT...

I would not wish such a thing on you, do not demean these people by calling the manner in which they died, a blunder, you demean our sons and daughters with your BIAS against Bush.

Kelly Cooper says:

But this kind of "dialogue" is what you dumbass bloodsuckers deserve. You glorify carnage and cheer destruction. You're masters of war and, God bless your hearts, you've just earned another 4 years of it. So get used to images you don't like, opinions that make you homicidal, and lots and lots of blood. Drink up you shitbag vampires.

Gee, Kelly for someone who would climb atop her own sons' coffin to denounce President Bush you have a lot of nerve calling anyone a "shitbag vampire".

Darleen

American soldiers don't count either. They are merely pawns in the ongoing hypercritical and disingenuous hyperbole one hears from all LLL's.

Im pretty sure Mr Kelly Cooper won't be having any children.

#39 Geepers

My, Kelly Cooper is such a nice, sweet person. Hope she doesn't end up in my ER, my bloodthirsty bloodsucking homicidal urges might just kick in and I would wallow in his/her blood, maybe I could show her some images she/he may not like...

For a possible Inauguration Day story...If you know of a funeral and whether the family might be willing to talk to ABC News, please fill out the form below:

I so fucking dearly hope ABC comes to regret this... how low can they go ?

JustDanny

Thanks, should have known, frustrated untalented actor projecting, projecting his own "sucking" type of behavior...

they are aiding the enemy in the practice of fourth generation warfare--4GW--by assisting in crushing the political will of this nation--this is serious --these people need a tet shot--like the vc who bought it in the streets from gen. loan--we need to expand the definition of treason in the information age--at least benedict arnold was a good general

So Kelly Cooper is a guy

Alright then, Kelly Cooper , YOUR IGNORANT SLUT!

"Considering that Bush's biggest blunder is his Iraq war, it's hardly surprising that media would seek to hightlight it during the inauguration. Is that bias?"

You're shittin' us, right? Do you really not recognize the bias in your own premise?

"Well, it certainly presents a counterpoint to the narrative that the current power structure wants to present."

Really? How did you decide this? Left-conformist power-seekers often make clairvoyant statements like this, but have yet to prove their powers under objective conditions.
No matter, suppose we concede your version of what the current power structure (meaning the non-media/UN/EU/authoritarian/terrorist power structure).
How does this represent a counterpoint? Does the administration deny that soldiers are killed in Iraq? The only counterpoint would be emotional and visual, pure propaganda and lowest common denominator sophistry.

"Sounds like an appropriate posture for a critical media to take - unless you just want propagandistic cheerleading."

"Sounds like?" Another infallible lefty test of truth, and yet another utterly predictable statement from presumed authority.
The alternatives you present are loaded, biased themselves, logically absurd in that they disprove your claim of an absence of bias.

Propagandistic cheerleading is what we see from Michael Moore, with his analogy of the Iraqi cutthroats to Minutemen, or from ABC itself in the kind of demonizing and content-free piece that you see as an effective counterpoint.

Now, go away, it's past your bedtime.

Word to the wise Ms Cooper, from me, justdanny. I have family serving in Iraq at this moment. And I have friends all over the country, this country, the one where all your limpwristed weak kneed spineless friends who are still crying because your dick in the weeds candidate just lost. I have three cousins in Chicago, and you know what, their father is serving in Iraq right now also ...

If you want to badmouth my family, in support of your crushed dreams so aptly reperesented in this horiffic display of insensitivity by abc, go right ahead. Because I know you can't run. And hiding would be futile.

#18 Abu Garcia

Re: Vincent D'Onofrio, I liked him in Ed Wood and some other stuff, too. Didn't like him on Law and Order. His character is supposed to be some kind of lovable flake, but I can't relate. That show is too PC for me, anyhow?

When Bush won, it came out that D'Onofrio suffered a nervous breakdown right on the set. More than once. One time he just laid down on the floor and requested that someone call an ambulance. It seems that they thought he was joking at first, but he wouldn't get up and was near hysteria. It leaked that many of D'Oh's fellow castmembers were hoping he'd be kicked off of the show and loathe him because he wont shut up about politics, and he's evidently one of those insufferably difficult actors.

Don't know if he's still on the show. I never even check Network teevee listings. It's all crap!

D'Onofrino suffered a severe bout of Pest Anxiety Attack, and was subsequently hospitalized for tests. Haven't heard if it was physiological, hopefully he will be okay, even if he is a LLL.

But this kind of "dialogue" is what you dumbass bloodsuckers deserve. You glorify carnage and cheer destruction. You're masters of war and, God bless your hearts, you've just earned another 4 years of it. So get used to images you don't like, opinions that make you homicidal, and lots and lots of blood. Drink up you shitbag vampires.

BDS is a real mental illness. It comes from a combination of being naive, a hypocrite, and complete intellectual and moral bankruptcy.

Since you've already achieved irrelevance - it's clear that your mental disease is such that rather than using logic, reason, and presenting better ideas or options - you can only become more crass, more bitter, and continue to disenfranchise yourselves from reality.

Go Bubble Girl! Give em hell!

So ABC putting out feelers to Americans to whomever's sons and daughters died in Iraq in combat is a good thing then?

Apparently ABC and the MSM are not content to just report the news. They must create the news so it matches their own LLLoser agenda. Gee people die in wars? That's certainly news to me.

Showing successful conservatives celebrating victory would just be too much for the MSM to bear. They will have to "balance" that with some sort of embarrassment for the POTUS.

I love it that the Blog once again shut down this despicable mischief. Take note MSM: We've got your number and we're watching your every move. You now have adult supervision.

actually if ABC runs that story then it would be most appropriate to have a national artistic contest of the most imaginative drawing of a young peter jennings fucking hanan ashwari--i know it inspires nausea--but at least its factual

kelly

"Considering that Bush's biggest blunder is his Iraq war..."

No blunder at all right war, right time.

One of the biggest decisions GW and his people had to make after 9/11 is to keep wmd away from the terrorists who have no alegiance to any country. Who was saying fuck you to the US during three presidential terms. Who was harboring,financing and promoting jihadists? What rat in the ME had wmd and was'nt afraid to use it or quite possibly sell it...bingo if you said king saddamite himself.

Even the liberal biased 9/11 report said AQ had relations with the SADDAMITE. Many still think his intelligence agency conspired with RAmzi Yousef an Iraqi in the first wtc bombing. Who the fuck knows. Sometimes you just have to exterminate the rats.

These asshat terrorists have been dictating the terms for thirty years and GW said enough is enough... to which I say amen!

It seems the left has a short memory of history.

Sleep tight and don't let the saddamites bite.

Kelly Cooper says:

I've found a new hobby: surfing conservative blogs and posting comments – little Easter eggs of dissent. It's awesome. I've already been told I'll be wearing a bhurka soon, puking up blood, and am actually "Kelly Bundy"…whatever that means. See? It's fun. Here's a few sites for getting started:

Jackass leftist twit who thinks its fun to bait people.

Is it awesome dude?

"young peter jennings fucking hanan ashwari--i know it inspires nausea--but at least its factual"

Eegad! Too lazy to masturbate, no doubt.

Excellent!

Propagandistic cheerleading is what we see from Michael Moore, with his analogy of the Iraqi cutthroats to Minutemen, or from ABC itself in the kind of demonizing and content-free piece that you see as an effective counterpoint.

Maybe abc should just cut out the middleman and allow michael moore to replace peter jennings. Why prolong the charade.

Then these are the same LLL who ridicule the "fair and balanced" motto of Fox News.

Kelly's baiting efforts are a child's scribblings compared to the awesome might of Operation Indy-Borg, which has turned the lefty fifth column portion of the net upside down and inside out; without the mumia-cong hordes even suspecting it.

Want to see what passes for enlightened lefty blogging?

I pooped my pants today.

I pooped my pants about 12:45 PM today.

I was sitting at my desk, eating some crappy Chinese food, and I felt the urge to fart. The neighboring cubicals were vacant, so I tightened my butt cheeks to quell the noise a bit, and out came a malodorous, viscous liquid. I ran to the bathroom, removed my pants and boxers, and scrubbed as thoroughly as I could with toilet paper dipped in freshly flushed toilet water. Only a small bit got into my actual pants, so they are safe. However, I'm currently not wearing any underwear. I peeked out of the bathroom stall to make sure I was alone, wrapped the boxers in paper towels, and tossed them into the trash can. I liked those boxers, too, but it was either throw them away or carry around poop-stained boxers all day.

True story. Honest to God.

And Kelly Cooper's mouth does just about the same thing.

#55 Geepers

Just GAZE the troll.

Let it wallow in its hatred and irrelevance.

#59 Freedom Fan

Then these are the same LLL who ridicule the "fair and balanced" motto of Fox News.

Of course, they wear their hypocrisy as a badge...

@Kelly

Damn, boy, you're 33 yo?

I'd have figured you for a late teener. If you're as f00ked as you are at your age you're truly f00ked. Don't worry, death comes to us all and it will release you from your pain.

Kelly Cooper sez:

"and am actually 'Kelly Bundy'…whatever that means."

Isn't that the slutty airhead daughter from Married With Children? It seems an effective counterpoint to the narrative the pop-culture conformist power-structure wants to present, and an accurate analogy.
Ted Bundy might be similarly effective for those who champion serial-killers like Saddam, Zarqawi, and the whole Palestinian authority.

(One of my advantages over the enemy masses is that I know more about their gods and authorities, pop-culture, than they do about reality, which is admittedly not saying much.)

Geepers

Yes, there seems to be quite a few who have crossed the absolutely gross out, totally crude line... Do they wonder why they have no social life, no friends, family that has disappeared, or are they so fixated on disgusting bowel habits they are totally unaware of our reactions and think we think it's funny too.

Not!

Athos (#62),

Yeah, there's 10 minutes of my life that I'll never get back.

And since he admitted point blank that his only reason for coming here was to take a crap on LGF and call it "art". I hope Charles bans him.

What a waste.

#67 Geepers,

I agree that with something that worthless, a ban is deserved.

Of course, he may crap on LGF and call it "art" - what I think he realizes deep down in his BDS despondancy is that life has taken a crap on him and called it well deserved.

#27 Miggie

The MSM is circling the drain because of their objectionable bias. I'm a news buff but I don't watch TV news, except for Fox Network... mostly the panel discussions. The only reason I get a newspaper at all is because my kid wants the funnies and the wife likes the local section. I get my news from the internet and all the articles from all the magazines I want. I also get interesting takes on interesting articles thanks to Charles at LGF.

Yeah, I just got a copy of Hugh Hewitt's new book Blog for my birthday. True, true, today is my birthday; the same day as muhammad's unfortunately.

The Blog is now my main source of information and I'm hooked on LGF. Although someone can post a falsehood, a team of knowledgable people will tear it apart with logic and links to other informed individuals, pictures, events. So this is where to find the truth, whereas the MSM is where to go for propaganda. Your choice.

Kelly Bundy is what Ed Moran nicknamed Kelly.

Then Kelly Cooper showed up spouting similar crap and he thought they might be the same person.

Thanx {{{Bubble Girl!}}}

Wish I were multi-lingual, but although I took Latin and Russian, I promptly forgot both.

Certainly sounds festive tho! Goes good with a pinata and a keg of draft beer.

That's the type of music I played last year when I was a D.J./Sax player at a Mexican-Italian wedding.

Athos (#68),

LOL.

Bubble Girl (#66),

Have ya ever noticed how "artists" who want to "shock" you with their art have go no talent?

I am surprised ABC did not balance its Bush's inaguration coverage with fake (but accurate) military funerals.

WTF?! Is Halperin working Mike al-Moore's snubnose like the pro he is?

Happy B-Day Freedom Fan.

And you bought a book about blogs? WTH? ;-)

#75 Asylum Aleikum

I am surprised ABC did not balance its Bush's inaguration coverage with fake (but accurate) military funerals.

Yeah. If nbc can stage fake exploding trucks, and seeBS can do fake documents, then I suppose abc could stage fake military funerals. Waiting, for real events that match their agenda to present themselves, can be so tedious.

Freedom Fan

You're welcome. Can I inquire how old you are? Feel free to say no...

Geepers

Quite right, Shock Art = No Talent and a bad habit of putting out hideous objectionable crap meant to piss people off, from those "deep" artists, using Barbie dolls and toilet lids... Alot, alot of crude too, Jesus in the Urine comes to mind. Perhaps holding the artist's head in a bowl of urine could be considered Shock Therapy Art...

Thanx Geepers!

Since were talking about talentless "artists"

Watch Mary from last nights American Idol! Holy crap, what a freak!

Geepers

Wow, you get around... What is the art called where they do it live... cannot think of the name...

Geepers

Okay, now it has popped into my head - Performance Art...Have you gone to any shows?

Didn't ABC News' head say something very stupid just after 9-11? I vaguely remember some story.

Bubble Girl (#83),

Gone to any shows? Shoo, I do my own:

My evil twin, you're going to far too much trouble.

I'd simply lock him in a box and hang it over the Thames. Then pull up a lawn chair, pop a cold one and sit back and watch while his body turns to itself for sustenance. Heart palpitations, hallucinations and loss of sight would be par for the course; even if he survived, the reintroduction to food could cause sudden death.

Now that's performance art without even breaking a sweat!

When you click on the ABC link now, you get some type of error message. Apparently, they quickly realized the effect of really bad publicity and are conducting damage control operations...

As a military spouse, I am thoroughly disgusted by the idea of anyone soliciting information about the death or burial of any military member - a father, mother, son, daughter, sister, brother...your friend or mine...for the explicit use AS A FILL SPOT in their almighty news lineup.

ABC? You'd be smart to fire whatever TOOL you have employed that took it upon themselves to fish for that information at all - much less online - for the clearly stated purposes YOUR network published early in the game because this issue is not going away...trust me on that one.

I am so angry...

Remember "the CNN war"? Yeah...Desert Storm...the phrase "INCOMING!" with reference to scud missiles was popular back then...

Heads up ABC... "INCOMING!"

Some shock art is better than other.

When I was in grad school, I got to know a freshman art student who lived in my apartment complex. One day I was in his apartment and he showed me his latest work: a model guillotine.
It was about 1/12 scale and beautifully crafted, except that the colors were off and very bright. Instead of brown, the woodwork was a hideous purple shade, the blood on the blade and basket was a vomitous green, the blade was matte-black, and the basket itself was day-glo orange.

He asked, "wondering about the colors?" I said I thought it was some sort of symbolic statement. He said, "nope" then turned the lights off and turned on a black-light (UV). The colors turned true then. It was one of eeriest things I have ever seen, the whole room bathed in the surreal light of the lamp, with a perfect true-to-life little guillotine seeming to float in the middle.

Soley aimed at embarrassing the President on his Inauguration Day. Jennings is behind this! I'm so ashamed of this man.

#87 YourLastFour

Thanks so much for your post. I'm pretty pissed off about this too, this is nothing more than Ratings, and the dufus' who don't have a freakin clue...

#88 Shiplord

Wow... Wonder what he's up to today... I think about the Art Design in Stage Plays, it is so fantastically inventive... But then they have more mediums to work with, than say 20 years ago...

Time for me to grab some Sack Time. Night all.

A little off topic, maybe, but here's a little item that's indicative a the MSM's sick wishful thinking (or plain stupidity):

Last night on the local evening news (San Francisco's KRON-4, an independent station), the anchor was describing the size of the new Airbus jumbo jet. The graphic? A photo of the White House with an Airbus looming over it.

Don't you think they could have picked any other landmark for a size comparison?

Kelly said:

, it certainly presents a counterpoint to the narrative

"a narrative counterpoint" = Po-mo deconstructionalist b's'hter.

I don't think I'll bother with the rest of the thread.

Barf Alert:

CNN: Meanwhile, sources on Capitol Hill said some Democrats plan to make a symbolic protest by trying to delay the vote on Rice's nomination when the Senate convenes Thursday at 3 p.m. -- three hours after Bush's inauguration.

Aides said Boxer and Robert Byrd of West Virginia plan to give long speeches opposing the nomination in an effort to extend the debate until 7 p.m., when the inaugural balls begin.

The aides said Boxer and Byrd hope some GOP members will not want to stay and debate the nomination, and the vote will be pushed back until next week

what bitter envious thumbsuckers!

I was watching local news last night about the snowstorm when they went to national news. The anchor was showcasing the lastest terrorist attack in Iraq, of course. And he couldn't have made the terrorists happier if they had produced it themselves. These people are scum and they deserve to live in an islamic "republic".

It's funny how the LLL claims that it's their opponents who are bloodthirsty, yet they are the ones who are energized by death. The ones who practically trip over themselves rushing to dance in the blood of fallen soldiers and civilians.

I take it back. It's not funny. It's sad.

73-Rayra- Yeah Sob's all of them. They all need a GI joe with a kung fu grip.

To let these "back-turners" go un-opposed, is when we become like Eurabia. They laid down and became a prayer mat for the muslims. We must not do that.

Tho in a class at my church last night, one man brought up Theo Van Gogh being killed by the Islams. and he said that the EUropeans were lamenting that they gave the Islams advance placement for their own shops. tha it takes ten years for a Dutch citizen to open a business, but the islams were moved to the front of the line and this is what happens.

Anyhow I was delighted that that message got out to just regular folks.

Also I remember that ABC news director Mark Halperin bias towrd JeffK (how do you feel now Marky?)
That f*cker, In the not-so-old days, these gutttersnipes fell down or tripped by accident, you know.

#52 freedom Fan---"to msm, you now have adult supervision"
I agree. Bunch of mendacious,dangerous spoiled brats that need way more than a 'time_out"

GodDAMMIT these people are fucking twisted.

If I was in the military, I'd go out and beat the shit out of the first newsman I saw.

They are using soldiers as fucking propaganda tools. The more dead the BETTER, to our pacifist enemies in the "media"

Speaking of ghouls…remember the Germans? You know…those wonderful Arian peoples with blond-hair and blue eyes? The ones who in the 1930’s and 40’s brought forth the National Socialist Movement and let the world know, once again, that in the wonderful tradition of self-proclaimed European Enlightenment, it was Germans who were, indeed, the ’Master-Race?’

No…the Europeans have learned their lesson, there’s a new European Enlightenment, it doesn’t produce that pesky problem of ‘national guilt.’ There’s none of that that local quarreling with ‘final solutions’ cut short and they don’t even have to get their hands dirty. All they had to do was become a full-fledged members in the ‘Save the Dictators, Tyrants and Mullah's Club‘ - and they did.

So does it come as any surprise that on the eve of the President Bush’s Inaugural ceremonies that Germany’s Sueddeutsche Zeitung publishes a ‘Fantasy Obituary For George W. Bush.'

It was, after all, this same upstart nation of 'cowboys', the U.S., which blew previous Reich’s plans and ambitions to pieces. So what does this same upstart nation do again today? They go and threaten the world by continuing to respect and protect the nation of Israel and Jews! (h/t: Davids Medienkritik)

Get our troops, people and business' out of Germany and Europe! Gawd….I can’t believe we continue having anything to do with these damn people.

the whole of the MSM are lying sack-of-shit leftists and DNC operatives.

Sooo...ABC is stepping up to the plate where CBS left off...

Attention blogoshere: clean up in aisle ABC!

Now if it were 2 Ee-rocki's and 4 syrians or 2 Ee-rocki's and 4 saudi's, that would make more sense. Even 4 el salvadorans! But where is the al Qaeda - China link?

Goodbye, Dan...Hello Peter, welcome to the new world...we'll be right with you...

This ANN COULTER piece fits in very nicely.

Hollywood liberals could not be reached for comment on the cost of the inauguration because they were being fitted for gowns and jewelry worth millions of dollars in anticipation of Oscar night.

Speaking of which, I just remembered: George Soros is worth $7 billion! Couldn't he get by on, say, $1 billion and donate the rest to the tsunami victims? If gun owners have to explain why they "need" a so-called "assault rifle," shouldn't Soros have to explain why he "needs" $7 billion? Last year, Soros announced that the central focus of his life would be removing Bush from office. Would that Soros could refocus that energy on alleviating the suffering of tsunami victims.

heh

"The Kennedys began pushing him harder and harder. Every day Bobby would call up McNamara, telling him that the war was terrible and immoral and that he had to leave. Two months before he left he felt he was a murderer and didn't know how to extricate himself. I never felt like a murderer. That's the difference."

Hey, LGF made the comments section on the blog you posted:

@ Richard E. Sykes: Calling David's venerable Blog "the Rush Limbaugh of Blogs in Germany" isn't very nice. Next thing someone will call it "the german Little Green Footballs". However much i may disagree with many of the sentiments expressed here: the "Medienkritik" is (and will hopefully stay) a bit above Limbaugh and Footballs.

He he he.

Am I not getting it here? How does one intellectually arrive at the conclusion that a soliier's funeral is the counterpoint to an inauguration? I could see airing a democratic protest, or shuttered Kerry campaign offices or even Michael Moore spewing a little venom. There is a complete disconnect here for ABC, explained only by bias. Contrasting an inauguration with a soldier's funeral is like contrasting the tsunami disaster with Oscars.

Words fail me, beyond, "Thank you, Charles", and thanks to God for the blogosphere.

Yes, this has been going on since I was a little boy. This was very common during the Reagan era.

Fortunetely now we have alternative sources of news and ways to desiminate information outside of the LLL filters.

I really don't think anyone should be surprised by this stuff

Bernie Goldberg explained all this in BIAS - his expose of CBS news

Basically - you get an idea for a story and then you go out and find the footage and interviews you need to support the story

For example - if you want to do a story about how US troops don't like Rumsfeld - you just go and interview 100 or 1000 soldiers - however many it takes - until you get 2 or 3 who will say what you want to hear

Then you broadcast just those few with commentary "many US troops hate Donald Rumsfeld"

OT but related. Check out this piece of crap from the Minneapolis Star-Tribune:

Minneapolis Star-Tribune

That's weird about D'Onfrio. Not long after 9/11 "Law & Order" did a show about Muslim terrorists plotting to attack a parade. It wasn't very PC at all, and D'Onfrio played his part to the hilt.

But then, Viggo Mortensen is a moonbat par excellence, despite the fact that he played a hero rallying the West to war against an onslaught of barbaric evil in Lord of the Rings. I guess he thinks Bush is Sauron and Blair is Saruman.

To Kelly: Yes, war is hell. It certainly makes me sick to my stomach. I actually cried and was a devastated wreck when we started bombing Afghanistan. But the way the world is, sometimes you have to suck it up and do things you don't like. I would be more than happy to leave these people alone in peace (if you can call life under Saddam and other Mideast dictators "peace") but they have been attacking us and calling for our destruction since long before Iraq, Afghanistan, and 9/11. Running away and trying to appease them just makes them bolder.

We are dealing with people who glorify war, terror, the destruction of innocents, and martyrdom, all in the name of their god. We are dealing with people who despise the concept of individual liberty and representative government. We are dealing with people who want to continue Hitler's genocide of the Jews. We are dealing with people who want to turn things back the way they were in the 10th century. They have to be destroyed, or the world is going to fall into a deep, dark pit of ignorance and barbarism.

There's nothing we can change about ourselves to make these guys like us and stop attacking us, short of becoming radical Muslims ourselves (and considering the way Muslims fight each other, that might not work either). The Dutch do everything you want America to do--embrace multiculturalism, be energy efficient, not meddle in world affairs--but it hasn't made them immune to attacks.

Yes, war is awful, and I want us to always hate it and be reluctant to engage in it. But if circumstances force us to fight, then I hope we will fight, fight with ferocious, overwhelming force, fight to win, and fight until the enemy is exhausted and sick of war and sues for peace. That is the way to end the fighting as soon as possible, save as many lives as possible, and restore the peace. Not doing so simply prolongs the conflict and wastes lives.

Message to ABC:

Dear Sirs:

I would not ordinarily talk to the media jackels, particularly ABC, but will make an exception in this instance.

If there are no service people being buried today, contact Dan Rather. He will be glad to arrange coverage of a fake (but accurate) military funeral.

Alternatively, Peter Jennings, your Canadian anti-Semite front-man for the PLO, might be able to figure it out for himself.

Late the the party, as always... too inebriated celebrating W's win to comment eloquently... but this just SUCKS!

So it's not only me about L&O! Whew!

Unsuspecting gullible viewers never realized that the MSM news is politically designed from the top down. First the MSM ask themselves what they want the mood and opinions of the gullible public to be. Then they look for "news" that can do the job that they want done.

In this case, ABC wants to build on a theme that is in the petition on the Kerry website. This theme, which mentions that Rumsfeld doesn't sign letters he sends, seeks to convince the public that this administration does not care about the loss of American lives in Iraq. That is the theme that ABC wants to pound on. It wants to convince the public of this, and is looking for ways to do it.

So they chose the day of the inauguration to strike. This, of course, is a festive day. So their plan is to show funerals of Americans dying in Iraq, and then cut to the festivities of the inauguration. The subliminal message of seeing these two things juxtaposed is that the administration is celebrating the deaths of our boys in Iraq. ABC doesn't have to say this. All that they have to do is first show the funerals, and then cut to the celebrations.

So then the word went out to try to find the "news" that ABC needed to do the political work that they were trying to accomplish: find the "news" of a funeral of an American soldier in Iraq, so that it could be used in this way.

Now that we have a clear picture of the way that the MSM designs the "news" to achieve a given desired political effect, we can understand what happened with the CBS manufacture of "news" in the Rathergate scandal. First CBS was in distress over the political impact that the Swiftboat Veterans for Truth were having, concerning the Vietnam War era. So they wanted to counter this by dredging up a decades-old accusation about Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard during this same general era, in order to take the spotlight off the Swifites and off Kerry. In the end, they could not find anything that could pass for news, so they settled on forged documents.

Likewise, ABC went searching for the funeral "news" that they could juxtapose with the inauguration ceremony to make the viewer feel that the administration is heartless.

The revelation is that which we thought was sheer coincidence was not coincidence at all -- it was by thoughtful political design.

Same with MSM reports of troubles in Iraq. There is a purpose to those reports, just as there is a purpose to omitting the successes that are being scored in Iraq by our side. The MSM news is tailored to bring about a certain reaction on the part of the unsuspecting viewer. And in the case of Iraq, the desired reaction sought by the MSM is the view that the situation is hopeless. That is the desired view that the MSM wants you to have, and that is how they filter the news and select that which they figure will bring about the desired mood and opinion.

EE - What an eloquent summary! True to the core...
