I've personally never held that EVERYTHING is Bush's fault. The campaign to eradicate porn, tax cuts for the richest people in America while more families and children are living in poverty than at any other time in my life, an ill advised war in Iraq that was shoved down our throats by a propaganda machine that KNEW GOD DAMNED WELL that there were no WMDs in Iraq.....sure.....but not EVERYTHING.

BTW, you think that documentary would be getting aired if Dubya wasn't in support of it? Think again.

Essentially this is tantamount to a multi million dollar campaign contribution in my eyes. And for the record if the tables were turned I'd still think it was BS. Unfortunately for our great nation most people are too stupid to disbelieve what is said on TV, as if there's some all powerful fact checker preventing TV producers from lying in their broadcasts. We have turned into a nation of sheep waiting to be told where to go and what to do next.

I can respect the position of a Bush supporter that he shouldn't take all the blame for something like this happening, as long as they can respect my position that a man who signed up for the National Guard to dodge the draft then essentially went AWOL from the National Guard has no business criticizing another man's war record one way or the other, and Bush did start the name calling on this one.

I honestly believe that everyone, including TV networks, has the right to voice their opinions. I happen to disagree about that being the case here. IMO this is yet one more attempt by the "entertainment machine" to pull the wool over the eyes of voters with misleading info and/or outright lies. That really pisses me off, no matter who's getting trash talked about them.
