Joan Walsh is totally letting the McCain campaign off the hook or easy just as she does as a panelist on MSNBC.
Look at what they (McCain campaign) have been doing all along, the Paris Hilton/Britney Spears ad, accusing him of being unpatriotic, accusing him of wanting to lose the war which is totally beyond the pale and she thinks they were not being racist in this little charade that Rick Davis pulled yesterday. Andrea Mitchell also did not pummel Davis either.
I believe that Barack knows what he is doing and he will not let them pull what they have done in the Kerry and Gore campaign but what is going on here now with the McCain campaign has Karl Rove written all over it.
I agree about the news media covering her as much as they do as I certainly don't consider her newsworthy. However, I don't have to watch the news segment do I.
I think it is a shame how our news media is turning into nothing more than the National Enquirer. They don't seem to cover any stories that are really news relevant (anyway to me) or stories that require some good investigative work and techniques but easy stories such as ship kidnappings that go on for months, etc.
Greta, Nancy, several MSNBC programs not news but sensationalism type stories. However, I guess the ratings are calling for it so maybe this is what America wants instead of important news.
It also amazes me that Paris is called an actress. If I was a legitmate movie actor or actress, I would rather resent this.
Nothing new. Well duh, thats because the theft has not changed. We may not have all the facts yet but it is quite clear what went on in Ohio and also I will always remember Diebold's owner and contributor to Bush who stated he would deliver Ohio & the election to Bush. Even though he changed his story after the remark, do not believer he changed his goal.
Thank you Mr. Kennedy for writing this story & making everyone aware of what did happen.
