After slamming Bush on trade issues during a speech to the Iowa City Foreign Relations Council Edwards was asked how he would try to evolve governments such as those as Russia and it's eastern European neighbors.

Talking about Putin Edwards quipped, "I know George Bush looked into his eyes and saw his soul, that gave me great comfort.," adding "I wonder if he saw in his soul that he was going to completely take over the governement."

Edwards went on to talk about how he once met with a Russian presidential candidate who was faced with the challenge of campaigning with no access to major media as it is controlled by the Kremlin.

Said Edwards, "It would be like running against Bush when Bush owns the media you know," adding," they do have Fox News.

:rofl:

1. Which is a great reason for all Dem candidates to refuse to recognize Faux News

as a legitimate news outlet. They are not.

They are tilted so far to the right I'm surprised they haven't rolled over. It's pure propaganda 24/7. If the FCC were doing their job, we'd have a Fairness Doctrine in place that would put a stop to the Faux bull.

It's a disgrace. If I'm somewhere where there's a television on, I ask for the channel to be changed to something other than Faux News. And sometimes they will change it!

2. Edwards should know by now that it is more than just FOX that BushInc controls

You would think he would have noticed it back in 2000 and 2004.
