Randi taking a repug to school.
He is talking about how US media is great and is fooling the Iraqi imsurgents. Randi's telling him who owns the media outlets and he needs to see where she gets her info.
This guy is a real tool.

9. We must march against Fox and the rigged election.
Don't forget that Randi called for mass action — strikes even. What we need is marches. Not talk. Action. STREET action. Action in the STREETS. Huge public protest. A joint protest against the rigged election and Fox right in front of Fox World Headquarters in New York with the chant, “Rupert Murdoch, tell the truth! Fascists rigged the voting booth!” Fox is headquartered in mid-Manhattan on the SECOND floor. We’re going to be right outside their windows by the thousands screaming our guts out where they can hear us. Bad vibrations? Too bad studio soundproofing isn’t perfect. We must deny them legitimacy at all costs. Bush didn’t win. His election is a fake. Vast numbers of Americans still don’t know this because Bush shills like Fox cover it up. Fox must be targeted. Their headquarters are in New York. The other papers and media in New York will cover this protest because they all hate Fox’s living guts in New York. See this blog:

A Call To March On Fox
For refusing to tell the truth about the rigged election! —

http://acalltomarchonfox.blogspot.com/

Read it. Read it all. Contact the blogger there to get involved.

Go to this thread and participate in the discussion — A call to march against the rigged election — includes extensive discussion about the planned march on Fox/rigged election:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x2688242

Add your comments there, keep that thread kicked. There’s going to be a huge march in New York combining protest against the rigged election and the Bush shills like Fox who cover it up, a double whammy. After that, the cat will be out of the bag and Bush will have lost legitimacy.

Why is that important? Because legitimacy is essential for de facto power. Official or “de jure” power is not enough for a leader to maintain control. He has to also have the INTANGIBLES of legitimacy — de facto authority. That’s why presidents can become lame ducks in their second term. Bush must be denied LEGITIMACY. His whole presidency must be publicly DELEGITIMIZED. People in other countries will hear about the march too. This will add to his difficulties diplomatically overseas. To deny legitimacy we must march against the rigged election.

Where? At the number one shill covering it up — Fox. Fox Headquarters in New York. Fox may or may not admit we are in front of their New York offices but the other New York news organizations will because they hate Fox. See the above blog for full details on that and the whole march plan. See and post on the above thread to get involved. Keep that thread kicked.

5. Well, apparently CNN tricked the insurgents...
into believing that the assault on Fallujah started three weeks earlier than it actually did.

It must be a piece of cake for our media to fool the repugs, they're such half-wits. :-)

4. the guy was a smirking chimp, you could hear it in his voice
and you can tell he was thinking he was going to stump Randi, or teach her what's what.

And instead he sounded like the ignorant idiot he so obviously is.

6. They Might "Trick" Them On The U.S. Body Count
Still one weeks worth of Fallujah casualties still unreported.

8. Yeah and this guy is a nut case from Maine
Shame on him.

He said we were justified to attack Saddam and Iraq because Saddam killed 300,000 people. :eyes:

Isn't it funny how they all forget all the lies--all the lies about the WMD, the mushroom clouds and all the rest of the crap they sold to these pogeyheads?

Now, all those lies have gone the memory hole and it is a damn shame that they were NEVER brought up during the whole campaign. NEVER.

Now we have death, and more death and more death and it is all justified because Saddam killed 300,000 people and we had a right to take him out--along with 100,000 civilians most of them women and children.

With napalm.

Randi squashed him.
