IT MAY BE "1% DOCTRINE" of truth but CNN runs it, like 99% PROPAGANDA
Edited on Mon Jun-19-06 02:38 PM by Jeffersons Ghost
Okay New York subway riders it's time to "DUCK AND COVER!"


It's so highly newsworthy that every time I scan by CNN I hear the story of an exciting new book about how terrorist "might" have abandoned the stupidest plan I've ever heard of to put cyanide in mason jars and release it into subways several years back. I guess His Ass-Holiness the Dope saved us again!

Now that they've put Anthrax the Coulterbeast's book on the best-seller's list, they're pushing another up with free commercials in the guise of news.

I want to write a best-seller and I know how to get CNN to help. I'm going to write about a prize tomato I view with pride every morning, as it ripens on the vine. I covered it with white poison to keep cut-worms and other critters from nipping at it but I could claim the international village idiot is keeping Bin Laden from stealing the red wonder.

In other news: thousands of US troops are dying in a war to keep the North Koreans, who we are still technically at war with, from nuking my two bell-peppers with their new missiles.

1. Actually...
I'm not sure if this is good PR for Bush or not. I happened to catch one of the stories CNN was running, and they basically said that it was stopped because of Osama calling it off -- not Bush and co. foiling their master plan, or something. In fact, as a sad commentary, CNN said that intelligence officials didn't even know if any of the people who were going to pull this off ever made it into the USA or not.

3. duck and cover has worked for years to rally neocons and they're...
more plentiful down here than boll weevils in high cotton. I can just hear the damn war-mongers now. If they can't find good news, they'll just create some scare-tactic crap I guess.

Oh, I forgot to add, the terrorists wanted my tomato badly but our fearless draft-dodging leader who must sneak into Baghdad like a thief in the night, made them change their strategy with his forceful words.

2. Why would terrorists want to attack New York again?
New York is one of the most anti-Bush enclaves in the country.

And according to the Repukes, Democrats and Terrorists are on the same side.

So, it's no wonder they've withdrawn security funding for the Blue Urban Archipelago-- Republicans see the cities as nests of terrorist sympathizers.

In case you haven't noticed, Republicans see us as the enemy, too.

They hate us for our verified paper-trail ballots.

I'm not wasting anymore money on 7-dust. I'm going to place PR stories in local media to divide and conquer the little nasties!
