' Drudge better have some facts and quicko, or he's dead on the water '


The same way Woodward and Bernstein 'found facts' about President Nixon. The media gave them a pass on needing verification, Their story is currently in the history books, without any corroboration.

Meanwhile the great newspapers of the world are running these corroborated and undeniable facts, while the US media is too busy camapigning against Bush, running 'new' low confidence polls and AWOL allegations, I've not seen such a partisan media in my lifetime, its irresponsible and sickening.

The media is currently giving the biggest pass ever to Kerry, Drudge didn't leak the story General Clark did, this is a democrat infight.

There is no excuse for the US Media's sitting on this story while running the AWOL allegations against Pres. Bush.

We all have a valuable lesson to learn here, the media cannot print negative unvetted stories, unless their about GOP Presidents.

Yes, the media is more liberal than ever, given the HATE they have for G.W., and their desire for a one world government, U.N. as major honcho.

Yes!

There is no excuse for the US Media's sitting on this story while running the AWOL allegations against Pres. Bush.

No, and yes! There is a reason for the lamestream media to be closed-mouthed about this Kerry intern story. Nothing is verified yet! Right?

But, the disgusting hits on G.W. about the "AWOL" crap is totally all Liberal horses**t!

I have said forever that the mainstream media is the most influential, evil, destructive institution in the country today. I have been stopped by my own desire to my impression of today's mainstream media by the realization that I'd be suspended or banned from here by suggesting my characterization of the matter.

I love FR so much that I do not want to be sent away. FR is the best website in the country, no site is even in second place, IMO.

But, the mainstream/liberal/sycophantic/Democrat/mainstream media today in America is basically a group of a few very powerful liberal folks who have controlled the media for over sixty years.

The problem for me is, that when I SUGGEST who these owners of the media are, the producers of the media product, and the directors of the media's direction, I get in real trouble.

Just let me say that .......... if you look back to the short list of fellows who were permitted to buy up and own the three major television networks back at their inception, you will see a common thread, and today a similar group of people are deconstructing this country, on purpose - deconstructing this country with their control of the influence of American voters' opinion.

IMO, it is time, before this very important election 2004, to have the American voters realize who owns, operates, and directs the direction of the reporting of all political events in this country.

We are at a point in America where most citizens, thanks to the media, think that cuts in tax rates bring LESS renenue into the government...........and that is totally wrong. At this point, the mainstream media takes every opportunity to suggest that all our efforts in Iraq constitute a "quagmire". And on and on.

At this point in America, the mainstream media has taken it upon themselves to completely ignore the effect of the Supreme Courts decision on CFR.

The mainstream media has nothing to do but ignore what 'The Founding Fathers' meant as the intent of "The Press".......... a watchdog on government, an institution to keep the citizens up on the truth.

Well, I'm tired of it, and it's time for all of us to try to figure out how to get things right before a Democrat is elected this time around.

Sorry for all the meandering, I just care alot about this.

It is time to expose the mainstream media, because, along with the liberal courts and the public schools, they are the most evil institutions in the country.

It is a VERY partisan media, and that fact has to be somehow exposed to the majority of voters before November or there will be a Democrat in the White House......... maybe The Beast.

Sorry ........... I don't write real well, I just care.
