Tweety And Friends On Hardball Were Just Talking About Manipulation....
of the American people to get them to vote for a particular candidate. It's clearly manipulation at its best. They lay it out there so we could see how we are going to be manipulated. So we know we're being manipulated. And lo and behold - we American people fall for it every time and we get manipulated.

How stupid are we?

4. Manipulation by who? And does he see HIMSELF as one of the manipulators?
Edited on Wed Mar-08-06 07:40 PM by rocknation
Or MSNBC? Or the national media in general? And what is he going to do about it? Can we count on him to point out stories are being manipulative from now on?

5. It's shows like "Tweety" that "manipulate us" and so it's always been...
I like to think that the internet had a chance to save us from our misery and capitulation since St. Reagan threw out the "Fairness Doctrine" for our publically owned airwaves...but it seems that in Tweety's "Fairness" he somehow loses the "point of it all" doesn't he? :-(

6. They always do that.....
They'll cover a story not worth covering...and then 2 weeks later, after the story has been covered to death....they'll sit round a round table and talk about how they covered a story not worth covering to death.

It appears that "they" feel that if they say it themselves, then it means that everything is peachy Keen!

That's why they are so dangerous....cause they are goddamn crazy and make absolutely no sense!
