Tell you what, now that Gonzo's appearance was postponed...
(probably because of the media saturation surrounding today's news), if you ever wanted to know what color underwear the shooter wore, you are about to get your curiosity satisfied....

Leahy really had no choice, but now it's a contest of "how long can we keep up this 24x7 coverage". And, if Anna Nicole Smith is any gage, the answer is a long, long, long time.

1. Gonzo hearing only posponed until Thursday.
Hopefully the media will have calmed down since by then they will have covered, and reshown every film and interview of everything concerned with the VT shootings more than 5 dozen times each!

5. i thought today was monday.
But, I agree with the sentiment. If he IS working on this case, as he suggests, then all his training will leave his limited circuitry that shit for brains has in his skull.

6. consider this scenario - your home, out of Iraq early because you got hit -
you've been homa awhile and have been watching the news. Let's say you have your limbs and some strength and you can sit up and catch tv between sleeps. It's been two months and there hasn't been much to do, but the tv is always on. And even though you are quite interested in the news, you're limited.

You wonder about your buddies, your unit, and you hear that there was just a big hit in the area you were last in.

Today, something jumps out at you - the intensive coverage of the deaths at VT compared to the 'un-coverage' of Iraq.

Then, you also notice during the two months that George Bush goes on tv often to complain about Dems, but never participates in talks to the soldiers or about soldiers.

Then, you notice the drilling that reporters are giving the officials who are speaking before the camera at VT - but you never hear reporters shooting questions like that except at the WH press conference which is only carried by c-span and you have to share the tv.

7. Say...you don't think that could lead to an exaggerated (warranted) sense...

that your vision of reality is 180 degrees out of sync with your surroundings... :shrug:

8. Well the good thing about this
that the little worm gets to squirm a few more days and worry and buy more Depends garments for his appearance.

Look at it like Kkkkaren will - a few more days to polish his lies...if he can keep them straight.
