Anybody want to start a campaign to get CNN to deny
that Bush had the questions before his interview with Malvaux. Either the whole thing was scripted or he had all the questions ahead of time. There is no way that Bush can put a coherent sentence together let alone speak in paragraphs. I know that he usually demands the questions as a condition of an interview (recall his interview with the Irish reporter) and Wolf got to say that she asked him difficult questions. How sleazy!

I posted this in general discussion and it sank like a rock. Maybe other people didn't agree with me that it was scripted but I'd sure like to put Wolf on record denying it.

1. I have a lousy record of starting campaigns that take off, but...
if anyone can think of a way to do this, I'll pitch in.

6. I say we just start with emails to Cafferty and Blitzer
It's easy and if we can get enough people to participate by talking it up here and on other liberal blogs, we can start creating enough of a buzz that if they don't address it, they are, in fact admitting it. Even if they do deny it on the air we have at least planted the seed of doubt in people who don't trust anything the corporate media says.

That your topic did not take off. Everything Bush does is scripted. He has somebody help him use the toilet and has to call cadence when he walks. They probably leave a note on his shoes: "Toes Go In First".

And he's still smarter that those who voted for him, but not as smart as those who stole two elections for him.

My Economist neighbor has never said "I went to the same college as George W. Bush" and neither has my Attorney, even though they both did.

3. I think we should start a campaign...
to get people to stop watching the crap these "news" channels are airing. Damn, if I see one more thing on any of these networks about American Idol I swear I'm going to go Elvis on my television.

But seriously, I don't know how to start a campaign, but you have my support.

5. I'm in.
Can you imagine the publicity if Clinton demanded to examine the questions in advance?
