Bush - the flip flopping hypocrite
Yesterday, after three years of intense, massive, international pressure from all across the political spectrum, Bush finally admitted that the "War on Terror" couldn't be won.


But, today, he says "we'll" win the "War on Terror".


C'mon media... can you say...

flip-flop??



Or doesn't that register on your pro Re-THUG-liKKKan bias meters?


Seriously, if there's any indy media station that doesn't prominently include the word "flip flop" in the headlines for this story, they should shut themselves down immediately. They don't deserve to be called "independent media" any longer...




We need to call the Kerry campaign and urgently stress that they include many references to Bush's flip-flop in his response to Bush's speech on Thursday, but that's no reason why they shouldn't jump on his flip-flop right away! That's the only way the media will pick it up, anyway. If not jumped on right away, the media will decide it's "stale".


This may very well be the final straw that broke the back of the lame camel that is the Bush presidency and will win us a Kerry presidency! But we need to force the media to call this what it is; a

flip-flop!

1. Welcome to DU
Nice post. I don't think it belongs in Late Breaking News. Don't be upset if it gets moved.

3. Heh. Well as long as it doesn't get deleted...
I hope that as many people see this as possible so we can start a media buzz... eventually the media has to cover what everyone is talking about... and everyone everywhere needs to start associating Bush will "FLIP FLOPPING HYPOCRITE" so that it will eventually find itself to the mainstream media, and not just the Daily Show.

and thanks for the belated welcome. I didn't get one when I first joined DU so better late than never :)

5. Will do, and believe me...
if I didn't feel that this was very important and the biggest flip flop Bush has ever done, I certainly wouldn't post anything that might not be construed as latest breaking news in that folder.


Oh, and thanks for the welcome!

6. I wish someone would remind the public
Of all of the various reasons given for going to war in Iraq, that changed everytime each reason was proven to be wrong.
