You're right. The smell emanating from Cheney would be either the drying blood of his victims, or more likely, the stench of decaying flesh common to the undead.
I find myself, for once, agreeing with the moronic pachyderm-(woe)man. Please Joe, state your true calling as a GOP'er! Disavow the so-called Democratic majority. I'd rather the fire cleanse the big tent of pseudo- and stealth- Republican'ts than allow that orally submissive fuktard Reid play the supplicant foil to Fuktard-in-Chief, Shrub.
Then I find myself confused. I find myself thinking about me, myself, and I, more than anyone else, which puts me high in the running for the role of Joe Lieberman. Maybe I should run for President of Israe- I mean - 'Murica. I think that I am what we (I) should be for us (me), which is to say, I know what we (I) need, I mean, I know what we need to save us (me) from the horrors facing Isra- I mean, Amurica.
"Bush was, rather, driven by misinformation from within his own government;..."
Wrong.
Shrub knew what he was doing and still believes it to be the right thing. Bush isn't stupid, he's smart. He's smart and he's still wrong.
We can play semanitics all day long, "evil", "stupid", "ignorant", doesn't matter because we can't know his intent except as he chooses to reveal it.
What we can do, and must do, is judge him by his actions. He led us to war on false pretenses, then had the gall to mismanage that same war a in foolish gambit to annex the majority of the world's oil reserves. He committed multiple felonies by his own admission (FISA). He has exhibited bad faith and dishonesty at every turn during his rule.
The Congress should impeach this lying sack of shit. Not because he deserves it, for he deserves a frog march to The Hague at best. Nor should The Congress impeach him for political gain. The Congress should impeach our lying sack of shit President because it is their duty and they owe it to any future generations that survive this travesty.

In this case, the invisible hand speaks truth: Fox's popularity is congruent with their true worth.
You said, "Fox is obviously entitled to broadcast whatever propaganda it wants...."
I must disagree. Murdock, Ailes, and Wallace are free to felate Shrub anytime on their own time, not mine.
Fox, like every other broadcaster, uses our public airwaves and agrees to serve the public good as a condition of access. While I concede that particular clause is the appendix in the body of FCC regulation, that doesn't mean they are entitled to do using the public airwaves.
Perhaps it's time to exercise that portion of the regulation with regard to their license?

[Thus spake the corporate shill], "the letter was not a letter to the editor... It's a press release from the Clinton campaign."
Because the M$M would never act as stenographers or propagandists.
That he said it, or that he's right?
"I have absolutely no doubt there will be distortions and falsehoods spread about BOTH candidates from the fringe elements of the respective parties."
The GOP *is* a fringe element.

Can one bash Bush too much? I think not. In fact, one might argue that for the sake of our country he hasn't been bashed enough.
.. they shall receive nothing but mindless drivel. So, the Gozilla vs Megalon of all horseraces is over, and the "news" networks still can't deliver substantive content. So much for the Invisible Hand working it's marketplace magic.
Would it be too much to ask for a just a little substance? Is that too difficult a task? Is Obama the only person that's realized that after years of brain-numbing dissemination from the The Decider and his enabling minions that people, maybe, just maybe, can handle being treated as adults?
All this time I was thoroughly enjoying [insert correct possessive pronoun here] posts, thinking that ER was doing a parody of a right-wing idjit.
Just goes to show how hard it is to be a satirist these days. Among other things.

I'd change this to:

Oh they love to talk about themselves in the most trite of ways that define narcissism, but rarely does the discerning eye of a critic go unpoked.

I like Rove's version of Subliminal Man:
Scott wasn't in any of those meetings, (that I recall).
I didn't break the law at all (that I recall).
I didn't do anything evil (that I recall).
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
The accountability imposed by another country for the CIA's kidnapping and torture reveals much about our own.
Fox News' morning show plays to type, talking about whether Muslims in the Army should face "special debriefings"
The survivor and author is upset about comparisons some on the right are making to genocide
Once seen as a lunatic fringe, reactionary anti-women groups are courting respectability
