So the issue starts to lose traction because of the silence from the press, figuring it must not really be an issue. The thing that amazes me is the administration and its supporters pretend that the press is hounding them because(all I can think of) is the press isn't singing their praises 24/7. Just ignoring their failings isn't enough, they should actually be copying their talking points regardless of the facts. I think their intent is to so cow the press, the press does whatever they want.

So, pound them into the ground, and have a good hearty gut laugh while you are doing it. They are the traditional playground bullies. All they care about is winning, not the end result. The problem that comes up is that their real life policy is flawed. And their dogma is driving down the country into a dark pit of debt and despair. But they don't seem to care, do they? They are winning. John

Re: The thing that amazes me is the administration and its supporters pretend that the press is hounding them You have to spend some time studying the psychosis of the angry white male. Then all the crap that emanates from O'Really(?) and Limburger makes perfect sense. These twin angels of evil understand perfectly how to manipulate the seething resentments of the underachieving white working-class male. Both frauds, O'Reilly and Limbaugh, are perfect populist mouthpieces. They cater to the ignorance, prejudice and hatred of white trash. And they are turning white trash into George Bush's most important political asset. It is stupid white trash that votes for Bush. It is stupid white trash that dies in Iraq for Bush. It is stupid white trash that is enslaving the children they have that aren't cannon fodder to pay for George Bush's follies. White trash! It's George Bush's secret weapon for destroying America! And don't tell me you haven't seen the scourge of "white trash" on SI. They are an infestation here. They are the morons who lost all that money in the Internet bubble. They are the morons who show up day after day telling us that "if only I'd set a stop", "if only I'd taken my profits". They are the morons that fuel the American dream.... of rapacious global manipulators who have established their hedge funds where angry white males can't touch them. GOD BLESS THE AMERICAN MORON! He's about as vulnerable as the buffalo in 1880, and hasn't a god-damned clue that he's about to become George Bush's lunch.
