1. I don't call them the New York Slimes for nothing.

They've been slimebags on Venezuela and the historic and amazing leftist democracy movement in South America that Venezuelans pioneered and inspired. They LIE about Chavez and other leaders of this extremely successful and democratic movement. They distort; they omit; they demonize; they lie.

They were slimebags on Bush's war on Iraq and share responsibility with the psychos of the Bush Junta for the horrible deaths of at least a hundred thousand innocent people in Iraq (in the first weeks of bombing alone). They LIED for the Bushwhacks!

That's enough right there. I don't need to know what else they're lying about, what other peoples and honestly elected leaders they are smearing, what other democracies they are trying to destroy with transglobal corporate-bankster-war profiteer propaganda, what other wars they are trying to start, what other broken legal systems they are supporting (international law, our Constitution) (oh, here's one: they WITHHELD damning information on Bush Junta illegal domestic spying until AFTER the 2004 (s)election because, they said, it "might influence the election"!), what they DIDN'T tell people about 'TRADE SECRET' voting machines in New York and across the USA, or anything else about this lousy, goddamned, snooty, arrogant, lying so-called newspaper.

They are NOT the news organization that published the Pentagon Papers. That's all over. They are indeed WORSE than Faux News, for their pretensions and SLIMEBAG disguise as 'journalists.'

I've had it with them. I don't believe ANYTHING they print any more. I even wonder about Paul Krugman--brilliant as he is--because his column appears in their slimy pages. Do they print him as cover for the crapola on their news pages and elsewhere on their editorial pages? Do they print him to give their kitty box liner progressive and intellectual creds, while sliming leaders who actually govern intelligently and on progressive principles? It's SO IRONICAL--the Latin American leftist democracy revolution has implemented many of the economic principles that Krugman avows and has created prosperity, fairness and inclusiveness in their economies and in their politics, yet they get lied about, smeared and slimed by his slimebag publishers!
