The secret of Bush's* appeal revealed
OK, who else on the board besides me can't resist occasionally stoppin on the Xian network on cable while going back and forth? Even spend more than a half a minute on the 700 Club?

I finally figured out, during the MTP interview this morning, Bush's media personna. He is a perfect clone of Pat Robertson in terms of his delivery and general demeanor.

His smarmy, smirkiness is all over the Xian Taliban shows. It is a proven seller, as shown by the financial success of these faith-based shakedown shows.

I tried to keep an open mind watching MTP, and I came away with the impression that a lot of casually engaged Americans would come away with a favorable impression of the guy. I'm not sure he doesn't get some bounce out of this.

Unless and until the media start to pressure Bush* the way they pressure our candidates, Bush will continue to be the Rev. Uncle Sam, and win the hearts of a significant number of people. He needs to get pushed off his cool.

1. Bush is even starting to look like Pat Robertson...
The older Bush gets, the more he looks like that idiot Pat Robertson.

4. check out this website:
http://www.TheocracyWatch.org/

What you've observed is not a coincidence, but is a symptom of the fact that the GOP is bought and paid for by the Religious Right...

The website lays it all out in black and white, in their own words.
