This goes right along with Gravel, Kucinich and Biden going on Faux to split the Dem party up come election time or to show its viewers that the Dem party is too radical, then they'll say 'The Democrat Party was fractured, that's why (insert Corporate Whore name here) won the primary', they will just keep on fishing for phony reasons for why the vote suddenly flipped until one sticks with the sheeple, right up until the election.
Eddie Bernays would be proud.

Floridiot: Just like the CMSM "floated" the false stories, later debunked, that Bush won because he got a higher hispanic vote (false story) and the young peoples' "get out the vote" didn't work (false CMSM story #2, to justify the flipped election). Remember THOSE 2 false/later debunked CMSM stories to falsely give us reasons why Bush won?
These stories usually "precede" the vote, to "prepare us" for the upcoming stolen elections! Keep an eye out for CMSM stories to "prepare us" for who is going to be "elected".

They even tried the "more blacks voted Republican this time" routine, if you remember. Then, these stories fade from the news, and then are debunked. I remember the false story about the youth not getting out to vote, that was debunked. Remember that? They're "preparing us" for the reasons we should think a stolen election went a certain way. Manufacturing consent.

Faux snooze all looks the same to me.
They reported having video evidence of Jefferson taking bribes and also reported finding $90k cash in his freezer (gives new meaning to cold hard cash) two years ago.
Rovian orders directed them to wait to move forward with the indictment until now.
The US Attorney on the case, a loyal bushie, followed orders.
Now, the good people of "that part of the world" were robbed of their right to vote out such folk.
As it turned out, since the DOJ bragged about having solid evidence well before the '06 election, but did not go forward, people doubted the government story. A lot of doubt about them is going around you know.
People thought to themselves, if your case is so strong bring it. We will vote his ass out if he is guilty ... so bring it.
Instead they waited and now the House has one less credible democratic vote.
The good people in the Katrina "part of the world" have been stormed on once again by the faux Department of Justice Just Us.

Dredd, brought out right after the second Dem debate with Conyers face instead of William Jeffersons (Clinton)
Watch Olbermans connections on C&L.

Excuse me to joke a little to keep my sanity.
WTF - Is the whole clip to be re-mixed by JiB/Jab now!
And they're bitchin that small people like me, can not be journalists. (I'm not a journalist by the way) But I bet I could have covered that better, even if it ain't my "thing."
I can't wait until there's multiple corruption stories (Insane noise level) going that nobody can watch this stuff and keep track of anything. Instead of Jefferson on ABC, CBS, NBC, have
Libby on ABC, Rove on NBC, and EVM failures, riggin an a crackin on CBS. Let em have Conyers being indited on "outFOXed." Maybe follow it up on PBS with REEL GUVMENT UFO's, FREE ENERGY, loud screaming matches on Mac G's, and some more of that educational PINK FLOYD CONCERT LIVE. Damn if that Univision, don't have a Uni -language still, where's the CC's?!
The power, so much power being wasted. The FCC are evil. Ready for Amatures on 700MHz-2.4GHz? Watch the whole floor of the spectrum raised up to pure white noise solid all the way across. Can't wait for my HDTV!
Although, you got to love that finger pointing technique. The dude smoothly looked back at the camera, then up with that finger.
That's technique, is the EXACT thing I was saying about gorilla style corporate media video freeway blogging. (without the freeway) Coordinate it externally, then be in the right place to stick that sign in black and white up into the shot saying,
(Hide it under your TUX or something...)
(One side of the card says.)
MEDIA BLACKOUT
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
ELECTRONICS IN ELECTIONS
FAST INVISIBLE ELECTRONS
ATE MY VOTE
(the other side of the card says...)
DEMAND
PAPER BALLOTS
PUBLIC OVERSIGHT
HAND COUNTED
Or whatever your soup/message of the day is. ;o)
I have to laugh, or I will pop a blood vessel.

Dan, doesn't it seem how Limpballs, Scammity et al say one thing a certain way just long enough for their audience to catch it, then about a week or so later repeat the same lie in more detail so the they all think 'yeah, I've heard that before somewhere so it must be true' ?

This was no accident on Fox's part. I know it. You know it. They know it. Anyone with eyes to see, and ears to hear, knows they are not a news outlet, but rather an elitist propaganda machine that, without conscience or regret, daily profit from brainwashing and misleading people. The haughtiness shown by the Fox corporation, especially in the way they go to work every day, "look us in the eyes" and knowingly feed viewers, listeners, and readers a line of complete bullmanure is infuriating! I don't think they've put an article about Tim Griffin's resignation, or voter caging, on their website yet [but I could be mistaken]. They sure as heck haven't responded to my [deviously] polite email asking where I can locate said article[s].
News!
Fair!
Balanced!
It's rubbish...pure, unadulterated, pompous, dishonest, depraved, provocative, rubbish! I look forward to the day when it's thrown onto the heap with the rest of the trash!

Don't you have anything better to do than keep a close eye on something you believe is totally (un/in)credible? Fox is not going to change and you are not going to believe what they present.
I'll bet most of their viewers(old farts w/bad eyesight) did not notice the "abhorent" slight(and "disrespect for people of color") to Mr. Conyers. The clip showed a full-face "still" of Mr. Jefferson which took up half the screen, while the incorrect shots of Mr. Conyers were from across a room as he is walking.
Making an issue of this "mistake" will only heighten their pleasure in thinking Fox has "done it again".
MUGZI has it right. Boycott them; get your news somewhere else, watch the Daily Show and see how a real comedy show handles this.
