2. My thoughts exactly!
His interview with Bev Harris had SUCH possibilities, if only he hadn't edited out the entire story! Plus his comment about that 20% who believe there were 'problems' with the Election. His accompanhying eye-roll entirely dismissing the validity of that 20% (us), I found SO condescening.
That plus his (AND other CNN anchors') reference to the poll that finds 80% (?!) of Americans happy with Bush and the direction he's taking us?!!!!!
The virtual crap on the news right now is truly remniscent of a Banana Republic! Dan Rather never fit in with that crowd anyway! :argh:

3. How and when was that "poll" taken???
My guess it was one of the online CNN polls that don't amount to diddley because it can be freeped easily with a bot.

4. Olbermann discussed the same thing...
Edited on Wed Nov-24-04 06:09 AM by progdonkey
He had on Zogby, and he mentioned the 20% considering Bush's "re-election" illegitimate. It wasn't in a condescending way, however, and Zogby made a point to say that 20% is almost half of the people who didn't vote for Bush, which is an unprecedented level of refusing to recognize a president's election.

This shows the great difference between Olbermann and the whores.

5. Stupid poll question--people should have been given the option
of "do you think voting problems that have been identified should be investigated?" or something like that. A lot of people are waiting to see what the investigations turn up before deciding about the illegitimacy. And probably many more know nothing of the issues of black box voting etc. because Aaron and friends have said next to nothing about it.

6. can't stand that man aaron.
I know some here think of him almost as a real journalist/reporter - whatever those hacks call themselves, but I have great distain for him. He's really Paula Con in a suit. Glad I didn't see the Bev Harris snippet and his eye roll or I would have gone ballistic.

Lou Dobbs is starting to piss me off too - hell, every corporate news talking head on the screen lately rankles me to no end. I hate that bunch so much - treasonist fuckers or ignornant fuckers with great responsibility, don't know which is worse.
