Where's the Outrage, Hispanic Office, Peaks, Freepers, Keywords
The Onion said it best with their article about the nations liberals suffering outrage fatigue. And yet I was rendered speechless this evening while watching the Daily Show. I'm rarely home anymore to watch the news - so I rely on Jon Stewart as well as the net to keep me informed - these things happen when your campaign has no Cable TV. Anyhow, Stewart gave the Douschebag of Liberty award to Robert Novak for calling on CBS to reveal their sources for the memos... yes... THAT Robert Novak. I am appalled at how shameless these neocons act, though I suppose I shouldn't be truly shocked. But still - the hypocracy on the right is astounding. Why aren't people outraged over this?
The Kerry Orlando Hispanic office opens tomorrow - complete with a computer network installed by me today.
There was some discussion around the office today by us lower on the totem pole people regarding the recent polling data showing Bush with a lead. There's been an overall sense of frustration that the wingers attacks seem to stick, and we can't stay on message. But Tony reminded me something - the wingers can only go down from here. - which is not true for us.
So the Freepers got their little victory with casting doubt on the memos. My question - how come the White House had and released a copy of these "forged" memos? If they were fakes, why did the White House have them at all?
I'm quite amused by the keywords that have brought up my site. Apparently Laura Ingram is one of them - which I think is fantastic. If any neo-con bullshit artist deserves to be called out, it's her. She's a talk show host, and yet goes on diatribes about how other media figures should just shut up and sing. Laura - just shut up. I don't even want to hear you sing.
