I'll amen that as well. Does anyone know exactly why the blog world calls Mathews "Tweety?"  TIS Because he tought he taw a putty tat.  I'll bite .. why? And while we are at it lets gag Russert, Hannity and Tom Brokaw. I thought Brokaw retired. He should get out already.

Actually I don't know why Tweety. I was wondering if anyone else did. It's funny though. Back to the media for a moment. A lot of people (bloggers) are slamming the media for reporting that John Kerry is supporting Obama, and that the Culinary union in Nevada as well. These people claim it's to sway voters. I'd like to think voters aren't that gullible.....but then Bush was elected twice. I think, to a degree, this is important no? I mean I'm sure soon Carter will say who he is backing, along with say Ted Kennedy or anyone Dem Or Rep, of importance may say who they are backing. Is this something that you take as the media's fault?  Should it not be reported? In other words what would be considered news without bias and just plain news? TIS

First, the media reorted with cerainty that the Culinary Union in Nevada was going to endorse Obama. I have not heard about John Kerry. Whatever the case it is not clear the Culinary Union's endorsement was contingent upon Obama winning the NH Primary. This fact was omitted from all news accounts I saw.
The reporters are supposed to report THE FACTS. I remember the morning of the Benezair Bhutto Assassination when Mika Brezinski was hearing stuff in her ear about the developments and she kept saying to the director ...Can I go with this? Can I go with this, and then she said first that there was a "report" that she could not verify that Bhutto was hit and in hospital. Then she said there was a "report unconfirmed that she was in grave condition" then a "report she had died" and finally a confirmation from Reuters that she was dead. Thats how developing news is reportd properly. You tell the listener, or viewer or reader what is going on. The "unconfirmed report" tells us that we cannot rely on it but that is what is being said. Once it is "confirmed" then we have the facts.
Here they jumped the gun on this Culinary Union thing which is inexcusable, even if they wind up backing Obama. The news was they were considering it, but there were conditions.
As for Kerry's endorsement, I doubt it does much good whether true or untrue. I dont think endorsements mean much. As far as Kerry not endorsing his former running mate, be reminded that Gore did the same thing to Lieberman in 04 when he endorsed Dean.
In both cases there is no love lost betwen the former running mates. Lieberman, who is one of the sneakist lying weasels on th lanet stabbed Gore in the back during the Florida recount, and of course later on he stabbed his own party in the back when he refused to play by the rules. As for Edwards, the Kerry people think he tanked the debate against Cheney and basically ran a lazy campaign with the idea he could get national recognisition to make his own run four years hence if Kerry lost. I do not think these guys are even oon spaking terms. I have also heard that Edwards had some unkind things to say about Kerry's wife.

33 Senators Voted Against English as America 'S Official Language June 6, 2007

Senators:
Your vote against an amendment to the Immigration Bill 1348, to make English America 'S official language is astounding. On D-Day no less when we honor those that sacrificed in order to secure the bedrock character and principles of America .
I can only surmise your vote reflects a loyalty to illegal aliens.
I don't much care where you come from, what your religion is, whether you're black, white or some other color, male or female, democrat, republican or independent, but I do care when you're a United States Senator, representing citizens of America and vote against English as the official language of the United States
Your vote reflects betrayal, political surrender, violates your pledge of allegiance, dishonors historical principle, rejects patriotism, borders on traitorous action and, in my opinion, makes you unfit to serve as a United States Senator... impeachment, recall, or other appropriate action is warranted.
Worse, 4 of you voting against English as America 'S official language are presidential candidates: Senator Biden, Senator Clinton, Senator Dodd, and Senator Obama.
Those 4 Senators vying to lead America but won't or don't have the courage to cast a vote in favor of English as America's official language when 91% of American citizens want English officially designated as our language.
This is the second time in the last several months this list of Senators have disgraced themselves as political hacks... unworthy as Senators and certainly unqualified to serve as President of the United States.
If America is as angry as I am, you will realize a back-lash so stunning it will literally rock you out of your panties... and preferably, totally out of the United States Senate.
The entire immigration bill is a farce... your action only confirms this really isn't about America ; it's about self-serving politics...despicable at best.

I'm learning towards McCain and Huckabee at the moment. I don't really like anyone else. I still think it's early, but I'm holding out hope for an Edwards/Obama or Obama/Edwards ticket on the ballot. If not, I'd seriously consider voting for Bloomberg, if he decides to run as an independent. I'd vote for McCain over Clinton, but if it ended up Romney or Huckabee against any ticket with Clinton on it, I really don't know what I'd do.

Rumors of him being a big time sexist would leave me leary though. I don't think that'll be much of an issue. I mean, he's won right here in "Carrie Bradshaw" territory twice. Then again, I'm a guy, so what do I know?
