I just heard CNN anchor say "Clintonista"
Say what? A code word directly from Rush Limbaugh.

Context: describing the new staffers in the Kerry campaign. Clintonistas.

27. read the new thread with reply from Miles O'Brien
defending use of the term...

CNN is hardly 'slipping' every damn day with their bushbuttlicking...

28. Of course,
I am speaking to what others see. They do not yet all have the perspective that we do.

Friend, consider where you would spend our energies.

...And I prefer the Shoto, not the kool-aid.

4. Oh man.
When will they start with the Hitlerys and the femi-nazis? Will they start giving "mega-dittos" to Bush's campaign speeches?

12. I think it was Candy Crowley who used it with Donna Brazile
I was a bit shocked too until I realized who said it. Crowley is unrelentingly anti-Kerry. She'll ask one question after another of a Kerry supporter that suggests something negative about his campaign and allow only a few seconds for an answer. To balance out her coverage, she will then bring on a Bushco minion, ask them one softball question, and then let them have the floor for an extended Bush political ad free of charge.

19. Search the DU archives for some stuff Miles O'Brien has said
...some of you with search capability :)

He has been known to let loose a few freudians now and again.

22. But I like Miles when he's talking about Mars and stuff.
Aw, dang, is he another Bush-bot Rush Limpballs fan?

And Daryn Kagen's actually dating Rush too?

CNN is just crap now, isn't it? Faux News II. :argh:

24. Remember, Eason Jordan wrote me that there is "no anti-Kerry bias"

on CNN. My rebuttal letter to him keeps getting longer and longer.
