I Watched The Gibson Interview of McCain Last Night
and I noticed neither one of them was wearing a flag lapel pin!

I became so enraged as to almost pull an Elvis and shoot the television!

I couldn't help but wonder is this only a requirement for a democratic candidate for President as proof of patriotism?

I know McCain got his plane shot down and was captured by the enemy during the last war based on lies, but why does he hate the flag today?

As for Gibson how can a card caring member of the corporate media go on national television in front of hundreds of millions of people and not wear a flag lapel pin? Why does he hate America, isn't that what the A stands for in ABC; America Backs Corporations?

3. Well for some reason during the interview,
after watching Gibson, I was reminded of the teenage girl's behavior when the Beatles first came to America, they weren't subdued in their enthusiasm and neither was he.

6. NBC's Brian Williams squirms in his seat and bubbles whenever he thinks of McCain
On Tuesday night he celebrated Obama's big night by reading lengthy passages from McCain's book and asked how "real Americans" like auto racing fans will regard this match up. "I'm really curious how my favorite focus group (some Friday night auto race in MT) feels about these two"

Well...duh.

7. These people take the focus off
of everything it should be on in order to obfuscate or divide the American People's attention, they're so obvious in their single minded devotion to manipulating public opinion, that watching them has become painful.

I kept hearing Foghat's "Slowride" in my head.
