Charlie Gibson: Coming up, poll show doubts about Obama's foreign policy readiness.
Edited on Tue Jul-15-08 05:36 PM by ErinBerin84
Ok, motherfucker. Still eight points ahead.


I know these posts are annoying, but I am extra irritated today, and my mom always insists on watching ABC nightly news (thankfully, she is still a Democrat). When I visit her house, I always start screaming at the tv, I don't quite think that she knows that Charlie Gibson is a hack yet.

2. I used to like him when I was much younger, I don't know why.
Was he always this bad? I only noticed it like 5 years ago. Also, was Peter Jennings always this bad?

Hairboy "moderated", if you can call it that.

Then he came out with some whiny crap about how unfair it was that Obama had so much more money for the campaign
than McLame...never was concerned that Dubya had WAY more money for his campaigns than the Dems. Wonder why.

on edit: Oh, and Peter Jennings is dead.

5. Never forget that the 1st person to hire Charlie Gibson was Roger Ailes (Nixon, Reagan, Fox News).
So, he learned from the best right-wing propagandists.

6. Poll shows doubts about Gibson's journalistic readiness.
Shows instead that he is a useful tool of a bought-and-paid for PR operation.

13. I turned on MSNBC a couple times today
and each time, they were talking about the commander in chief/foreign policy numbers that McCain got in regards to the ABC poll. I literally did not even know if they tracked the numbers nationally until I got here I read about it, because they never mentioned that Obama still had a 8 point lead in the poll.

18. Still, why is McSame winning on this issue? There is no way in hell that he should be winning
on this issue?!?!?! It's baffling to me. Why aren't the Democrats pounding on McSame? I only see John Kerry out there. Where are the Democrats?
