Oh my.

The primitives can be creative, in finding things to bitch about.

We are getting ready to attack Iran, and THESE are the most popular stories on CNN?
   
http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/TV/05/01/people.winfrey...

Tom Cruise talks Scientology, Suri on 'Oprah'

http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/TV/05/01/american.idol....

'Idol' down to final 4 after latest elimination

http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/TV/05/01/people.cher.ap...

Char: I dated 'shy boy' Tom Cruise

http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/04/30/grand.theft.auto/ind...

'GTA IV' could keep 'Iron Man' audience at home

Out of CNN's "Top 10" stories, I saw only one that was remotely relevant, and that was about Michelle Obama saying that we need to get past Rev. Wright and get back to the issues.

This administration is preparing to go to WAR with Iran over a new pack of LIES, and nobody really gives a shit! We all know that a war with Iran would have disastrous consequences. Maybe it's a good thing that we've devolved into a sedentary society with our television, DVDs, internet, and videogames - pretty soon nobody will be able to afford to drive anywhere! And skyrocketing gas prices are just the beginning of a whole horde of problems we'll soon be facing if we attack Iran.

WTF?

WTF?  No mention of skyrocketing marijuana prices?

1. Cable news has turned into a supermarket tabloid
   
Apparently it is easier to peddle celebrity gossip than to do hard-hitting news stories. No wonder I've turned off my TV to news for years.

3. If memory serves, these were the top "popular" stories right before 9-11
   
Danny Almonte, age 14, caught lying about his age for the Little League Worlds Servies.

Gary Condit, Congressman, under suspicion for the disappearance of Chandra Levy.

Nothing new here.

9. Yes the MSM has once again assumed we are zombies. I shut the crap off yesterday
   
COULD NOT TAKE ANYMORE!!! Arggg. I'd rather go on DU, at least real news is being talked about except for the Primaries. Over there they are freaking out over every little tidbit the MSM spills their way. Anyone catch Jon Stewart last night? The ice cream and Rev. Wright bit? Hilarious but true.

10. we have been preparing to attack Iran for 2 or 3 years now
   
So we should stop all other news for 2 years???

It was a big conspiracy theory here that we would nuke them on 6/6/06.

That's all there is to this bonfire right now, but I'm reasonably certain the primitives are going to gang up on the LSD primitive soon.

It is to laugh.  The residents of Skin's Island are the last idiots to turn to if one wants news about the world.

I caught a thread earlier asking who gave the military "permission" to do the air strike in Somalia, the one which killed Aden Hashi Ayro, a brutal terrorist leader.  The little goons wanted to know when congress authorized the strike.

One has to assume the DUmpmonkeys have no clue anymore what the title "Commander-In-Chief" means.  I don't remember the wacko left having a problem understanding the title while Bill Clinton was president.  I don't remember the rattlebrains insisting on a congressional role in every presidential decision during the Republican majority's time.

Still no story on Rove being frog-marched out of the White House?

Right wing media strikes again.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Which attack should they be covering?

Every time a carrier is moved within a few "business" weeks of a new moon the DUmmies think the attack is on.

25 years ago we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash and Bob Hope.  Now we have Obama, no hope and no cash.

Glad it's not the Saturday or Sunday morning programming, I couldn't take six hours of "Obama, Descendant of the Prohet" (Saturday) or "Obama, The Messiah Is Come!" (Sunday).
