No Liberal Bias To See Here Move Along

Headline from AFP:

Bush: 8,000 US troops to leave Iraq

That's AWESOME!!!!, right? Here’s a sample of what Newsbusters found for alternate headlines for this reality:

MSNBC: Bush to keep troop levels in Iraq for ‘08

Times Online: President Bush to maintain US troops in Iraq until almost last day in office

AP: Bush keeping Iraq troop levels mostly steady

Washington comPost: Bush to Keep Iraq Troop Levels Steady Until After He Leaves Office

USA Today: AP: Bush won’t reduce Iraq forces until early ‘09

Financial Times: Bush to withdraw 4,000 Iraq troops

That Financial Times doesn't know that 4,000 is half of 5,000 really makes me wantto use them as a reference in the future.

Lamestream Media Workin' It's Mojo

Courtesy of the New York Slimes:
"American consumers, uneasy about the economy and unimpressed by the merchandise in stores, delivered the bleak holiday shopping season retailers had expected, if not feared, according to one early but influential projection.

Spending between Thanksgiving and Christmas rose just 3.6 percent over last year, the weakest performance in at least four years, according to MasterCard Advisors, a division of the credit card company. By comparison, sales grew 6.6 percent in 2006, and 8 percent in 2005."

But... Uh......"even after sales increased almost 20 percent over the last weekend before Christmas, Chicago-based ShopperTrak RCT Corp. said yesterday."

Funny how I read about how shitty the sales are and that is front page news, then a few weeks later, a new estimate is released showing robust growth. I am so sick of it.

FECK THE MSM: UP THEIR CHOCOLATE WIZZWAYS

I mean that.

"ABC News' Barbara Walters sits down with President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela for an interview in which Chavez shares his views on the United States, President Bush and America's 2008 presidential elections."

WHY THE FECK ARE WE ALLOWING THIS MAN A PLATFORM ON OUR MOTHER FECKING EVENING NEWS?
WHY ARE WE GIVING ASSHOLE DICTATORS THE TIME OF FECKING DAY??????
