Default oh my f'ing *political thread*

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5758982/

i dont get it.. i specifically recall news reports saying that Bush denounced that advertising against Kerry. so where is this bullshit coming from?

i also find it funny that Kerry is demanding Bush renounces the advertising in light of all the bad publicity against Bush. Kerry doesn't have a movie out against him.. and one that outright lies on top of that. is Kerry going to denounce that?

and on top of that, this article has this line:
In a campaign shadowed by the war on terrorism and in Iraq, Kerry’s valorous combat experience is a cornerstone of his campaign.
is that objective reporting? that's a subjective statement. it's implying that Kerry is right and those veterans are wrong. not to mention that the entire article is heavily skewed in Kerry's favor, emphasizing his side of the story. it's also interesting to note that the article specifically refers to those veterans being funded by "republican" groups, implying that Bush has something to do with it. but they conveniently neglect to mention that organizations like moveon.org are funded by democrats. the implication being that it's a bi-partisan organization, which it obviously isn't.

biased media? no way.

From May 1, 1972 until April 30, 1973 -- a period of twelve months -- there are no days shown, though Bush should have logged at least thirty-six days service (a weekend per month in addition to two weeks at camp).

Yeah, I mean... you would never vote for a guy whose military records were questionable, right?

out of everyone that served with him only 1 person will back him on his "medals"

everyone else says he whined to get them. there are lots of accusations that show he probably didn't deserve any of them.
