Note to the corporate media

The conflict in Georgia does not help Bush McCain. It in fact hurts him because it highlights the failure of conservative Republican foreign and military policy. If we were not stretched so thin by the illegal and immoral war for oil in Iraq then we'd have troops to send to Georgia if necessary.
Oh, and one more thing, he hurts his campaign immensely when he claims that the hostilities in Georgia are the first conflict of the 21st century. It shows, yet again, how out of touch he is. Perhaps you folks in the corporate media who love shim so much could show him how to use the internets to keep up on things.

Or you could quit parroting his talking points and just give us the news with out trying to get your man elected.

Or even better, you could all do serious stories about the problems America is facing and then do some stories on folks who are trying to tackle those problems.

But what you'll do is continue to focus on what a "maverick" Bush McCain is, how John Edwards infidelity hurts Obama, and of course you'll also continue to ignore the recent cases of domestic terrorism such as the church shootings in Knoxville and the cold blooded murder of the chair of the Arkansas Democratic party.

It's no wonder people turn to the web and to blogs to get the real story of what's going on in the world.

I'm not sure which is worse Dr. Monkey, a presidential candidate saying the conflict in Georgia is the FIRST conflict of the 21 century or the nations TOP lawman saying not every violation of the law is a CRIME!! We are living in strange fucking times mate!

I remember McCain saying he knows how to win wars, but no one asked him exactly which war he won.

The media is about the process - the campaign. That's theater. That's sexy. That's sport. There's a winner and loser. It's easy for them to frame things.

Policies aren't so easy. Or sexy. They don't sell advertisements apparently.

The corporate media sucks ass.

Here's an idea! How about a watchdog press as outlined by our founding fathers? John McCain is a doddering old fool and should just retire right the hell now.

I find your tagging style very similar to mine... LOL!!

McLame said that the hostilities in Georgia are the FIRST CONFLICT OF THE CENTURY??

Holy shit that old dude is out of touch. Maybe he should use the internets tubes and google "Iraq WAR" or "WAR in Afghanistan."

If this doofus wins we are soooo done for.

I keep seeing and hearing McCain referred to as a "maverick." I've yet to see it with his @ss-kissing ways.

If he was a true "maverick," the Republicans wouldn't support him.
