While Rush brewed up a fresh pitcher this morning for his Kool-aid drinkers, predictably turning on the “Liberal” Media because their polls now show a come-back for Kerry in the face of Bush’s disastrous performance last week. To swallow that notion, one would need to ignore all the media’s previous polls that showed Bush winning, ignore the poll of WaPo — one of the favorite “Liberal” media whipping boys — which still shows Bush leading, ignore the past three and a half years of demonstrably pro-Bush work by the entire Mainstream Media, and a whole bunch of Kool-aid to wash it all down. But Rush has nothing else to rally his supporters with for the moment, so every line old becomes new again.

In the wake of it all, those of us who know the real reason why Bush is heading back to Crawford have had some time to ponder it all.

Here’s four enlightening items I think you’ll enjoy. All of them very powerful. I suggest you look at each of them. Including the last link with one the best pieces I’ve seen explaining where we are right now and why the truth about George W. Bush is finally making it through the cracks in the armor.

My buddy, Fin of “What-We-Know”, has put together a terrific little video that hits the nail right on the head. He gets it. Most of you already do as well. But this puts a lot in perspective. Check out his “Lone Wolf” video. Especially you Rightwingers.

My other buddy, Jesse, over at the DCCC, has put together a terrific video compendium called “Miserable Failure” detailing Bush’s gaffes, lies, misleads, or whatever you want to call them from the first debate. Corrections to Bush’s, uh, “misstatements” are provided, along with some great Springsteen music to boot. Check it out. Especially you Rightwingers.

A group calling themselves “Real Voices” puts out an extraordinarily emotional indictment of George W. Bush’s war. It’s called “A Mother’s Tears” and features testimony from the mother of an American soldier killed in Iraq – for no apparent reason. It packs a wallop. Please check it out. Especially you Rightwingers.

Finally, Digby puts into perspective precisely why George W. Bush now finds himself exposed and in trouble in a piece called “Two Faces. One Public, One Private. One Phony, One Real.” It beautifully sums up the last four years of the Bush scam to a tee and why America may finally be starting to “get it”. I can’t recommend enough that you give this piece a quick read. (Thanks Bryan for the tip!) You may as well learn the truth now rather than waiting until after the election and wondering what happened. Particularly you Rightwingers!
