I detest CNN hypocrisy, embodied in Bill Schneider.
CNN pretends that the discrepancies between the exit polls and the ballot tabulation evidences the invalidity of the exit polling. (Not the e-voting, of course.)

Nonetheless, they air Bill Schneider pontificating (pimping for the Reich) at great and repetitious length about how 'successful' the Republicans were at gaining the votes of Latinos, the young (18-29 yo), and women.

Based on what?

Those invalid exit polls, of course!

3. Once again
Why are you watching. I am no longer going to watch any of the media outlets that contributed to the distortion of George W. Bush as a great leader. They were a big part of the problem. In spite of them we had a valiant effort, defeated in the end by at a minimum questionable voting practices and at most by outright fraud. They wont't touch that issue with a 10 foot pole. Stop watching. We should all stop watching.

6. Stop aiding the enablers!
The cable media whores are nothing more than enablers of the Bush regime.
It has been that way since the very beginning. They bent over and let the RNC define the agenda, they suspended all critical thinking in the run-up to the war, they failed in their duty to their country and to their profession.

My resolution after this debacle is to stop watching cable talk/news shows and to get my information solely from CSPAN, newspapers and NPR. No more Judy Woodruff, Chris Matthews, Wolf Blitzer, et al. I bid them all adieu!

Regarding Bill Schneider: he is a member of The American Enterprise Institute which should be reason enough to disqualify him from making political commentary on a supposedly "unbiased" channel.
