Anyone else notice our "liberal" media got the word? They are such good little puppy dogs for the Bush administration. Ain't they?

1. The irony is the Argentinians probably know more about what he is doing
than his own supporters.

The same simple minds that would believe it is an 'anti-American' protest wouldn't be able to tell you as much about what Bush really stands for as the man in the street in Argentina.

2. I found an honest caption at Yahoo...


Thousands participate in a demonstration against the presence of President Bush at the 4th Summit of the Americas in the center of Mar del Plata, Argentina, November 4, 2005. (Carlos Barria/Reuters)

4. Not only that twisting of the truth but they are also using the phrase..
urged on by the "leftists". It all has me more furious with the media than I usually am.

5. this is another indication that MSM takes talking points from the GOP
the protests are ANTI-BUSH but the meme is Anti-America.

I loved the pictures of Clinton walking thru the crowds when he attened the summit during his tenure, but bu$h is held captive by layers of armed guards, just like at home.

6. Clinton used to jog from the White House to a D.C. McDonald's regularly
Can you imagine Chimpy doing that?

9. Can I imagine Chimpy doing that? No, but oh how I wish he would.
He just might hear somethings he wouldn't like, but definitely deserves to hear.

8. Exactly. The administration wants riots
They can use them as "Evidence" that the world hates us.

Of course, thanks to Bush, it is true now that much of the world hates us.

But, when these protesters speak out against Bush and the actions the US is taking, the administration just translates that to "they hate America".

Most Bush loyalists already know that these countries "hate America". This just reinforces that belief, and ensures that they rally behind Bush.

It reminds them that "the world is against us"

They do hate Bush and his supporters though. I just wanted to clear that up.
