News

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that complete SHIT passes for news in this country?? It must do:
- Britney (Shitme) Spears has a baby. Who the fuck cares???
- Rene Zellweger has split from her husband after 5 months. Don't bother wasting space telling me unless she has said that she's coming to knock on my door!

What WAS big news during the week was something that was reported on by the overly inept media of this country but they seemingly missed an underlying fact in the whole story.


Mr Bush acknowledged the horrible suffering in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and said he was ultimately responsible for Washington's widely criticised response.

What was the point that they missed? Quite a large one, in fact.
It seems to me that the only people in this country who really have an opinion about George W Bush are the same ones who say that he is an illiterate moron. These are the same people who are easily led by the nose and bindly follow the one-sided (so-called) reporting that occurs in the (so-called) news media in this country.

Had they sat back and actually LISTENED to what he said (regardless of how he said it or if he stumbled or had it in big letters written in crayon) - they would have realised that he was being A MAN!! He took responsibility for the actions of people that he had no direct control over but, due to the nature of his office, the buck stops with him. He knows his position and he accepts it.

Let's start a short list of who WOULDN'T have taken responsibility nor acted like a real man?
- anyone with 'Kennedy' in their surname.
- anyone with 'Clinton' in their surname.

Seems to be a bluish trend here....
