		<description>Did any of you actually go investigate what Gibson actually said? Or did you just believe what this website says? He was criticizing an anchor from another network for his snobby attitude towards people who would rather watch the Smith coverage over the war in Iraq. We have the ability (and in my opinion the responsibility) in this country to investigate the things media tells us.  Ask yourself, what reason would this website have for distorting what someone says? Could it be that they want to make you feel a certain way about things, or change your opinion to match theirs?</description>

		<description>I noticed that Gibson gave the email writer&#039;s first and last name and city and state.  Gee, thanks for protecting our privacy.  How long until this guy is slammed by the Fox Noise faithful?

I had to break out in a laugh when I read the banner at the bottom, citing &quot;malicious misinterpretation&quot;.  If ever there was one tactic that Fox Noise Channel employs, it is &quot;malicious misinterpretation&quot;.

As for Gibson, he could have been investigating the Walter Reed Army hospital negligence of our wounded veterans instead of drooling over Anna Nicole.  If she didn&#039;t have huge implants, would Gibson even care her? 

No, the dirty little secret at Fox is that if you want to see scantily clad girls, Playboy playmates, Hooters gilrs, and girls in bikinis, then stay tuned to Fox News.  It will be on shortly.  It&#039;s amazing that a purported News channel would try to boost it&#039;s ratings selling tabloid sex.</description>

Cover the important news that affects more then 0.000001% of the population or get off the air.

Gibson = 3rd rate tool for Murdoch. Everyone knows they&#039;re covering Anna Nicole to divert attention from a bad war.</description>

		<description>#100 Juan C,
Thanks for the great post!
I was just reviewing a reply from Congresswoman Davis,-D to my call for impeachment.
&lt;em&gt;&quot;...We must reach out to our colleagues across the aisle and foster a new era of bipartisan political movement.  Because of this belief, I worry about the far-reaching implications of the impeachment process. Tearing the country further apart could potentially overshadow the new House leadershipâ€™s focus on moving forward.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

My response back to her: I truly understand the implications of the impeachment process, but do we ignore what may very well be the most egregious crimes a sitting president and vice-president have ever committed (do we need a blue dress) just because we do not wish to &quot;overshadow&quot; moving forward? What is moving forward?  Moving forward includes telling the rest of the world (who were stunned Bush was re-elected), that the American people are speaking loud and clear that we are a nation of laws.  It is the Constitutional duty of Congress to shed more light on the acts of Bush-Cheney. If we are to simply ignore these disgraceful and criminal actions for political expediency there can be no moving forward.
Tearing apart the country?  Jesus, God the president has torn apart the entire world via deceit, fraudulent twisted tales of intelligence and unbridled fear mongering.
If our Dem leaders don&#039;t wish to show some backbone and do what most of the country desires be done then they don&#039;t belong in Wash.
We can&#039;t move forward in darkness.</description>

		<description>Bill Maher: George of the Bungle

http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/bushvideos/v/maherbushbungle.htm

Mocking President Bush for general ineptitude, comedian Bill Maher delivered a funny rant as part of his &quot;New Rules&quot; segment on HBO&#039;s &quot;Real Time With Bill Maher&quot;:

&quot;Seriously, Mr. President, this job can&#039;t be fun for you anymore. There&#039;s no more money to spend; you used up all of that. You can&#039;t start another war because you also used up the army. And now, darn the luck, the rest of your term has become the Bush family nightmare: helping poor people.&quot; 

&quot;New rule: American must recall the president. That&#039;s what this country needs â€“ a good old-fashioned, California-style recall election, complete with Gary Coleman, porno actresses, and action film stars. And just like Schwarzenegger&#039;s predecessor here in California, George Bush is now so unpopular, he must now defend his job againstâ€¦Russell Crowe, because at this point I want a leader who will throw a phone at somebody. In fact, let&#039;s have only phone throwers. Naomi Campbell can be the vice president. 

&quot;Now I kid, but seriously, Mr. President, this job can&#039;t be fun for you anymore. There&#039;s no more money to spend; you used up all of that. You can&#039;t start another war because you also used up the army. And now, darn the luck, the rest of your term has become the Bush family nightmare: helping poor people. Yeah, listen to your mom, the cupboard&#039;s bare, the credit card&#039;s maxed out, and no one&#039;s speaking to you. Mission accomplished. 

&quot;Now it&#039;s time to do what you&#039;ve always done best: lose interest and walk away. Like you did with your military service. And the oil company. And the baseball team. It&#039;s time to move on and try the next fantasy job. How about cowboy or spaceman? Now, I know what you&#039;re saying, you&#039;re saying that there are so many other things that you as president could involve yourself in. Please don&#039;t. I know, there a lot left to do. There&#039;s a war with Venezuela, and eliminating the sales tax of yachts, turning the space program over to the church and Social Security to Fannie Mae, giving embryos the vote. 

&quot;But sir, none of that is going to happen now. Why? Because you govern like Billy Joel drives. You&#039;ve performed so poor, I&#039;m surprised you haven&#039;t given yourself a medal. You&#039;re a catastrophe that walks like a man. Herbert Hoover was a shitty president, but even he never conceded an entire metropolis to rising water and snakes. On your watch, we&#039;ve lost almost all of our allies, the surplus, four airliners, two trade centers, a piece of the Pentagon, and the city of New Orleans. Maybe you&#039;re just not lucky. I&#039;m not saying you don&#039;t love this country, I&#039;m just wondering how much worse it could be if you were on the other side. So yes, God does speak to you, and what he&#039;s saying is, &#039;Take a hint.&#039;&quot;

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bill Maher: George of the Bungle</p>
<p><a href="http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/bushvideos/v/maherbushbungle.htm" rel="nofollow">http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/bushvideos/v/maherbushbungle.htm</a></p>
<p>Mocking President Bush for general ineptitude, comedian Bill Maher delivered a funny rant as part of his &#8220;New Rules&#8221; segment on HBO&#8217;s &#8220;Real Time With Bill Maher&#8221;:</p>
<p>&#8220;Seriously, Mr. President, this job can&#8217;t be fun for you anymore. There&#8217;s no more money to spend; you used up all of that. You can&#8217;t start another war because you also used up the army. And now, darn the luck, the rest of your term has become the Bush family nightmare: helping poor people.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#8220;New rule: American must recall the president. That&#8217;s what this country needs â€“ a good old-fashioned, California-style recall election, complete with Gary Coleman, porno actresses, and action film stars. And just like Schwarzenegger&#8217;s predecessor here in California, George Bush is now so unpopular, he must now defend his job againstâ€¦Russell Crowe, because at this point I want a leader who will throw a phone at somebody. In fact, let&#8217;s have only phone throwers. Naomi Campbell can be the vice president. </p>
<p>&#8220;Now I kid, but seriously, Mr. President, this job can&#8217;t be fun for you anymore. There&#8217;s no more money to spend; you used up all of that. You can&#8217;t start another war because you also used up the army. And now, darn the luck, the rest of your term has become the Bush family nightmare: helping poor people. Yeah, listen to your mom, the cupboard&#8217;s bare, the credit card&#8217;s maxed out, and no one&#8217;s speaking to you. Mission accomplished. </p>
<p>&#8220;Now it&#8217;s time to do what you&#8217;ve always done best: lose interest and walk away. Like you did with your military service. And the oil company. And the baseball team. It&#8217;s time to move on and try the next fantasy job. How about cowboy or spaceman? Now, I know what you&#8217;re saying, you&#8217;re saying that there are so many other things that you as president could involve yourself in. Please don&#8217;t. I know, there a lot left to do.

		<description>More Cow Bell:  Just so you know, that shit has been on every station.  I have digital cable (about 70 channels), and about a week ago, I flipped through the stations just to count how many Anna Nicole stories were on at the same time.  It was like 7 stations, including: CNN, MSNBC, and E!, among others.  Sorry to piss in your Wheaties, but that story was blown up by all the stations.</description>
