Thanks, Jeannie, I’M SHOCKED! Not only is your BDS showing, but your bias against the Republican candidates in general.

Brat on January 3, 2008 at 8:40 AM

BDS…bias

C’mon, Brat–there are plenty of examples of that to be found w/o imagining it. It was a good clip.

I’m not imagining it – I just know that it is always there especially on CNN and sometimes it is very subtle.

Just look and listen to the clip again. Compare and contrast. Notice the audio. Don’t listen to Jeannie. Listen to the candidates. Notice what they let you hear from Obama and Clinton compared to what you hear the Republicans say.

Also, by the way, Bush is not a candidate this year so the only reason they showed that was to make him look bad.

What? No nose-picking Aussie pols behind any of our candidates?

“… and challenge ourselves…” THUD.

LOL!

And maybe, just maybe, they showed it because it’s hilarious.

Someone should have taken that kids off the stage.

Esthier on January 3, 2008 at 9:56 AM

Um…why is she reporting on the actions of kids? Kids are NOT interested inpolitics, and anyone that sees that as odd is an idiot.

This is CNN, of course.

She is Andy Rooney in a dress. Yawn, indeed.

RobCon on January 3, 2008 at 1:15 PM

Haha, good stuff… The kid from the Bush speech was still the best.

RightWinged on January 3, 2008 at 2:44 PM

Doesn’t anybody have proof-readers anymore? “Moost Unusual?” sheesh

The kid at the Bush speech was definitely the funniest part.

lan astaslem on January 3, 2008 at 2:58 PM

Her last name is “Moos” or some such. I agree that kid was hilarious! I can’t believe someone didn’t escort him off quietly.

OMG CNN BIAS! BIAS! It’s in there SOMEwhere, I just KNOW it

Lighten up. Wasn’t excactly ‘hard news’, and 70+% of the examples were from Dems anyway
