To swallow that notion, one would need to ignore all the media&#8217;s previous polls that showed Bush winning, ignore the poll of <i>WaPo<\/i> &#8212; one of the favorite &#8220;Liberal&#8221; media whipping boys &#8212; which <i>still<\/i> 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.<\/p>\n<p>In the wake of it all, those of us who know the <i>real<\/i> reason why Bush is heading back to Crawford have had some time to ponder it all.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s four enlightening items I think you&#8217;ll enjoy. All of them <i>very<\/i> powerful. I suggest you look at each of them. Including the last link with one the <i>best<\/i> pieces I&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/what-we-know.blogspot.com\/2004\/10\/lone-wolf.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/BradBlog.com\/Images\/BushWalksAlone.jpg\" hspace=\"6\" vspace=\"3\" border=\"0\" align=\"right\"><\/a>My buddy, Fin of &#8220;What-We-Know&#8221;, 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 &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/what-we-know.blogspot.com\/2004\/10\/lone-wolf.html\" target=\"_blank\">Lone Wolf<\/a>&#8221; video.

Corrections to Bush&#8217;s, uh, &#8220;misstatements&#8221; are provided, along with some great Springsteen music to boot. Check it out.

It&#8217;s called &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/realvoices.org\/rv\/tv.html\" target=\"_blank\">A Mother&#8217;s Tears<\/a>&#8221; and features testimony from the mother of an American soldier killed in Iraq &#8211; for no apparent reason. It packs a wallop. Please check it out. Especially you Rightwingers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/digbysblog.blogspot.com\/2004_10_03_digbysblog_archive.html#109686081397041799\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/BradBlog.com\/Images\/TwoFacesOfBush_small.jpg\" hspace=\"6\" vspace=\"3\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\"><\/a>Finally, Digby puts into perspective <i>precisely<\/i> why George W.

I can&#8217;t recommend enough that you give this piece a quick read. <i>(Thanks Bryan for the tip!)<\/i> You may as well learn the truth <i>now<\/i> rather than waiting until after the election and wondering what happened. <b><i>Particularly<\/i> you Rightwingers!<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While Rush brewed up a fresh pitcher this morning for his Kool-aid drinkers, predictably turning on the &#8220;Liberal&#8221; Media because their polls now show a come-back for Kerry in the face of Bush&#8217;s disastrous performance last week.
