definition of fraud (Webster) - deceit, trickery

The bush SS tour IS a fraud: pre-screened and REHEARSED audiences, planted questions, canned answers, exclusionary, calculated. It IS deceit AND trickery.

yet the Dems will not call it what it is. sheeeeeesh.

1. Every time I catch a blurb of him on tour
I think to myself...Does he think he's still running? He's city hopping to sell his plan. He's the freaking Pretzeldent! If the idea had merit, he wouldn't have to sell so hard.

3. the job of Dems at the national level
is to PRETEND to be an opposition party, while forcefully representing the virtually identical corporate interests as the repukes.

4. "Dean slams Bush on town-hall meetings"
http://www.thehill.com/thehill/export/TheHill/News/Frontpage/031005/dean.html


What you're doing is a common trick. Take something outrageous that the republicans are doing, and use it to attack dems.

Much of the voting activism is the same, by the way. Channeling people's anger at the election result, away from the republicans and onto the dems, for "not doing enough".

6. Hear! Hear!
Dean says that Bush's excluding Dems from the town hall meetings is not American.

I think Dean's statement is clear as a bell.

8. The problem, of course, is that the MSM doesn't report this.
Yes, many Dems are standing up to the fascist insanity and Draconian social programs of smirky but if the media doesn't report the dissent, it's almost as if it doesn't exist.

7. Why don't Dems stand firm against Bush's SS piratization?
Oh, yeah, that's right, they are doing that.

9. 60 day circus
fradulent freak show, with the snake charmer.
Under the big top, where 'magic' happens.

I hate to say it, but bad news episodes like the press frenzy
24 hr news fests covering a pj'd tardy jacko, and killer court escapees help in at least the corporate media whores don't cover any live feeds of bu$h murdering social security.
