CNN just exposed the "ranch" and FINALLY admitted that the
haybale, etc. is the neighbor's ranch, and they are about 8 miles away from Bush's ranch. Can you believe it - THE TRUTH.

3. I won't be happy until they refer to it as a PIG FARM which is what it was
being used for when Bush purchased it.

It is not a "ranch" and besides, Bush is AFRAID of horses.

I'm sort of partial to the term 'Compound W', read in another

12. It was actually old Wolfie's show. The lady reporter stepped
back and showed the neighbor's house, etc., and then said they were 8 or 9 miles from the "ranch". I think Wolfie's mad about Cindy's situation.

6. Calm before the storm
I live out on the prairies just off a Tornado Alley. People around here keep an eye on the weather in the summer.

There's a moment when everything goes really, really quiet. Even the birds stop singing and the crickets shut it down. You look off in the distance and there's this big, green (yes, green) ugly cloud coming.

The news agencies know where they bread is buttered (geez, I'm mixing my metaphors today). The 60's political turmoil were great for ratings.

10. I remembered those days when I lived in Kansas.

Scared the bejaysus out of this California girl. I really find earthquakes much less scary than an impeding tornado.

8. CNN got within 8 miles of the Bush Crawford Ranch....
...that's probably where the rest of the MSM are as well. What about Cindy Sheehan, where is she actually positioned? Is she even close to the Bush Ranch perimeter? Crawford is only about 30 miles or so from Waco, correct?

9. The haybale is not on the ranch??? That's straight from "Wag the Dog" --
trickery! Only in this instance, it's our press that's deceiving us.

I always knew the haybale was a prop, but didn't know it was miles away from the "ranch."

13. geez, even I didn't know that
Did you know that? I knew it wasn't a real ranch, that he built it as a Potemkin setting for his 2000 race, no animals, it's not his truck, but I thought the hay bales were on his property. What a slimeball.

15. If Sheehan is arrested for standing around, people might wonder
why the reporters aren't.

I think that's why they mentioned it, personally.

16. I wonder what their punishment will be?
Exposing the fact that the emperor has no clothes will not sit well with the cabal. Maybe they'll sic Babs on CNN. "Y'all leave mah boy alone!"
