Why did the media not make it headlines when bu$h was crazed?
Two weeks ago bu$h gave a press conference in the rose garden where he became enraged at David Gregory's questions.
Why did the media not make that headline news? But they sure made it headlines when Clinton handed a reporter his ass.

We need to put the two event side by side and compare, who had the real meltdown?

1. Because the corporate media has been shilling for GOPs since 1997.

2. Yeah that Bill is one mysteriously angry man huh?
Why indeed? I watched the whole bush meltdown live and I know who the real angry president is.

3. Because in Totalitarian Nations such as Amerika it is not permitted
to make a big deal out of the Fuhrer's Madness. Because the Fuhrer isn't mad, he sets the standard for sanity in the whole Imperial Amerikan World.

Only opponents of the Imperial Family are cast as mad, unstable or insane.

5. I thought the interview with Matt lauer was really scary.
Bush looked like he was coming unglued.

Edited on Wed Sep-27-06 06:19 AM by sam sarrha
Clinton has a righteous point to make.. it was an intellectual assault, Bu$h's tantrums are to cover heinous crimes.. and stupidity

8. Wouldn't want to get into why his meds weren't working!
That would lead to why he needed meds in the first place...

7. This "angry" nonsense...
... is just not going to fly. Anyone would be angry at being accused of what Clinton was accused of, and even the average American who does not really follow the machinations of this administration understand that.

Democrats need more anger, not less.

10. That's My Take, As Well
And if Bill and the other Dems were smart, they would simply say "Of course, i'm angry. Wouldn't you be?" The fuse is then pulled from the stink bomb,

9. Because crazed is normal for Bush**
So normal the corporate media could provide us with a daily itinerary for viewing purposes, a la Queen Elizabeth, except citing Bush**'s crazed moments.

10:30 a.m. - Coffee break, if aide forgets to add "nutritional supplement"
1:00 p.m. - Rose Garden press conference (bring your flame-retardent underwear!)
6:00 p.m. - WH, if dinner is late, or cold, or includes vegetables
10:00 p.m. - nightly tantrum on being told it's time for bed

11. "reports" are coming out about BC's "purple face" off-camera rage
but, of course, they don't have the tape ... BS ... everything these days is taped ... likely especially at Faux ...

I'm sure that they always have a camera trained on their guests, to catch them in an off-camera faux pas to be exploited later ...

Similar in situation to the congresswoman who "struck" an officer ... they never produced a tape which supported the claim that she was abusive, or defended themselves from her statement that she was grabbed ... yet they were able to produce, within hours, a video clip of two of the hijackers on 9/11 running to catch their plane at the last minute ... and that's not a "high-security area" pre-9/11/2001 ...
