Passions Are Divided (Aaaarrrggggh )
This is the headline on the front page of wash post
http://www.washingtonpost.com/

with these words under it

<snip>
On the trail, the reception for Kerry is warm; the reception for Bush is akin to that of a rock star. – Dana Milbank
<snip>

the article inside

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A25440-2004Oct11.html

gets even worse

Bush is idolized and kerry is ABB

I am so frustrated with people who are not paying attention - the usa is asleep

how any one can possibly vote for bush - yet the media is doing their damdest to make it so

the questions to kerry about what will he do - drive me nuts - and then their answer - well he isn't going to do much different than bush

How the hell can he know what he will do?
Bush is covering up the real mess he is making and no one notices or cares and anyone who does care is SLAMMED

Kerry will have to decide and take action on Jan 20th - what bush will do between now and then to screw up this country and the world is beyond me and beyond kerry

congress rolls over for bush -

the whole country may need to fail in order to succeed - this government has become so corrupt it may be beyond repair -

and the rw - are hate mongers and inspire hate against them by any decent people

2. I used to expect more from Milbush
Bush has handpicked crowds signing loyalty oaths while Kerry still has thousands of very enthusiastic supporters cheering him on. Maybe they're not brainwashed. Ever think of that Milbank?
Jesus, this pisses me off!

3. A rock star whose audience is pre-screened
to ensure only fanatics need show up...

Try to turn your anger into action. Despair doesn't help anything.

5. Fuck the media.
Stop watching them. Don't give them your money or your attention. Spend that time talking sense to someone who still claims to be undecided. Better yet, spend that time convincing an 18-29 year old woman to vote - they almost never do.

6. Well of course he's treated like a rock star - the audience...
All gave him thousands of dollars!!

These people have obviously never been to a Kerry rally. At least here in PA, the crowd goes INSANE!!
