Keith's Extra Backbone
Edited on Wed May-18-05 05:51 PM by WhirlyGirl

Folks,
I love this recent e-mail to Keith, posted on the Countdown website:

- - -
Keith, could we collect some DNA from your spine and inject it into the
members of our free and independent media?

2. The media does stink .... W.G.
NBC & CBS news tonight ........ (head explode)


Congress is getting tough on steroids in sports. CBS lead story
Man I am so glad they are on that huge problem.

The grenade that did not explode got closer to Commandeer
Cuckoo Bananas. (I wonder if their any people who are pissed
@ C.C.B.?)

al Zawaki (sp.) had a secrete meeting in Syria (them Syrians hate
our freedom) ..... The pentagon told us about the meeting ..... I trust 'em :sarcasm:

The man who turned a blind eye to DEATH SQUADS is now in charge
of US intel.

Newsweek caused the riots in Afghanistan not C.C.B. (Commandeer
Cuckoo Bananas) taking forces out of Afghanistan so the Taliban could get back
in power ......... BTW what is the circulation of Newsweek in Afghanistan?

A laser system will keep small planes from getting into US Capital Air Space
(so as to allow longer bike rides by C.C.B.)

Not one word on one of the most powerful speeches ever in the Capital....
Galloway"s.

Some news jerk said that Iraq continues to be a problem but
the US forces are gaining control???????

This nazi germany circa 1936 ......

My country has been taken over by media manipulating thugs who
are working 24/7 to ruin it and gain total control over everything.

Up is down & black is white

I need a drink! :rant:

3. What they really need...
...is that extra vertebra of his!

I cannot believe that I am even seeing some media people I previously trusted line up and drink the aforementioned Kool-Aid as they shake their heads oh-so-sorrowfully about how journalists are just going to HAVE to do a better job of reporting in order to avoid having blood on their hands.

Not a WORD said, mind you, not a WORD said about an administration that starts a war by lying about the existence of WMDs having blood on ITS hands. Oh noooo! Never!

Oh, but I am expecting Keith to be unable to resist the siren song of the blog tonight. I guess our pal O'Lielly really laid into Terry Moran's "who are you, the editor of Newsweek?" statement to McCloddan (misspelling intentional) yesterday--said "I would have slapped him" and other lovely things. I can't wait for Keith to tell us--either on the show, the blog or both--about how much HE'd love to give old Bill forty lashes with a wet loofah!

5. It's on TVNewser.
Second story from yesterday (the 19th). Apparently Mr. Falafel really laid into Terry on his Wed. night show for the tone he took with McCLoser by asking him who made him editor of Newsweek. Said the "elite media" are just "lashing out" because they are "rapidly losing power and influence"!

Keith hasn't addressed Billy-Boy's comments yet, but perhaps his working the bit about the "1984 Channel" or whatever it was into last night's Countdown was his way of hinting at it! I wouldn't be at all surprised if he eventually does!
