Okay what happened politically today that the news is not covering?
Edited on Fri Mar-11-05 08:00 PM by Nikepallas
Not that it wasn't a serious event--The shooting in Atlanta GA..And the little bit of American news I have heard I have yet to hear anyone bring up the question: With all the money and time spent for homeland security and protecting everyone;how the hell could this guy get out of the courthouse let alone take this long--or longer to be found.

But my question is what is BUSHCO telling the media not to bring attention too?

3. Former GOP party head sentenced to seven months

Too bad they haven't caught any of the culprits from last year's Ohio selections yet. That third rate burglary story from Cleveland was a good one that should have gotten more mileage.

4. It's several days old, but Theresa Heinz Kerry, in an...
interview with Vanity Fair (?) said the reelection of Bush was suspect 'cause of Ohio irregularities, voting machine tampering and hackability, etc.

Read about it on DU, and haven't seen or heard it mentioned anywhere else.

7. With BUCHCO... God only knows.
It's getting so I'm afraid to turn on the news for fear of:

12. It's been a big news day
Light Up the Darkness has had reports of multiple items of significance. In the last day or so they include:

Why it is unsafe for liberals to watch TV news (except for John Kerry when he is on C-SPAN Sunday night).

Two separate reports on absurdities out of Bush on Social Security, and a refutation of pro-Bush claims from Factcheck.org.

Another conviction in the New Hampshire vote tampering scheme, and the possibility Bill Frisk may be implicated.

Republicans benefiting from the porn industry.

Bush receiving failing grades on airline safety from pilots group.

Bush's court appointee reruns are as bad the first time.

Support for Kerry's Kids First plan.

Koffi Annan criticizes suppression of civil liberties in war on terrorism.

Alaska oil drilling.
