I agree with Ray's first post. This is a stupid topic (that makes no sense) and was a waste of everyones time who had posted in it.
To the original poster: I'm not a fan of Bush nor the war we are in. But this is meaningless drivel. Bush is the Prez. like it or not, and posting stupid things like "omg! he isnt the pres." is just stupid.

What do you expect when flaim-bait like that is hung out in view?
When he posts something reasonable I'll debate - and I have. He even got me doing some research once - just to find things out for myself. When there really is evidence of a serious problem other than conjecture or heresay, I'll listen. But to bring up something like this 2 years after the fact and have no victims to parade, no means of verification of the allegations.... Simply wreaks of political muck-raking. Nothing more than an attempt to muddy the waters & put up a smoke screen & you know it.
Now if the election was two weeks ago & people were on video or TV being denied ballots, I'll listen. 2 years later???? C'mon! They're just throwing bombs & I can't be bothered with it...
Did caltour or anybody else post objections in 2000 when the Dems tried to have a recount in a closely contested county but at the same time throw out the military absentee ballots that were not counted because they knew they would be predominantly for Bush? Made national news ya know. Did clatour or anybody raise a flag & call a halt to the witch hunt on the media sponsored Florida re-counts in 2000? You know the ones that were done in February & March after everything was settled. The ones that CNN & CBS paid for in an effort to effect a change the outcome of the election. The ones that ONCE AGAIN confirmed that GW had won, but the results of which were not published or announced by the media that sponsored them. The same media that instead fell lock-step behind the view that GW was 'selected not elected'. Frankly, as a matter of service to the public good the media should have announced those results one way or the other, to place the support behind the winner of the election - whomever it may have been. But instead they preferred to keep the doubts & suspicions alive.
Seriously, I don't know, I wasn't a member of CEG in 2000.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Originally posted by caltour2: Your satire is not far from the truth. The mainstream media is owned by very wealthy corporations, which are owned and run mainly by Bush supporters. As a result, very little gets reported that the business and political elite don't want us to know.
Are you freaking kidding me kidding me?? Do me a favor, and go turn on the TV. Start flipping through the news channels and actually listen to the content and then come back and tell me that media is run "mainly by Bush supporters." I can only think of one news station that is not totally liberal, Fox News.
If these "business and political elite" are run by said Bush supporters, I wonder why they haven't showed us more evidence/documents supporting reasons for the war in Iraq. I had a friend (liberal mind you) that did some deep digging for his thesis to find out if there really was any concrete evidence/reason for going to war. Well he certainly found some things that changed both his stance and reinforced mine on the subject.
I know I'm straying far from the topic but to say that media is run by Bush supporters is assinine IMO.

No, I'm saying they are the least biased news channel I have noticed. Local news channels and most national seem to be lefties, not to mention the radio stations.
