A Voice in the Wilderness: Clinton's supposed meltdown on FOX, the Faux Cable News Network

A Voice in the Wilderness

As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there's a twilight where everything remains seemingly unchanged, and it is in such twilight that we must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness. -- William O. Douglas

Clinton's supposed meltdown on FOX, the Faux Cable News Network

**I would love to say more regarding these events but the truth is these three videos speak for themselves. Enjoy ...

Comedian Jon Stewart's analysis of President Bush's 9/11 Anniversary speech

Personally, I think Clinton fared pretty well.

Furthermore, I am amazed that a hard-hitting news reporter like the famed 60-Minutes journalist Mike Wallace could have such a chicken shit as Chris for a son - proof positive that integrity isn't necessarily genetic.

I suppose this is what happens when you have a famous father and you ride his coat tails into the business - but don't really have what it takes - so you end up being a hack who prostitutes your journalistic integrity by working on the Faux news channel.

**NOTE:

The links to YouTube have been disabled by YouTube with the notification that they have been eliminated due to what they describe as of "Terms of Service" Violations.

I find it curious that YouTube was purchased by Google - the purchase was announced today [10/10/06]. Google is a Republican supporter -as evidenced by articles where Google has made donations to Republicans for their re-election [NM Republican Heather Wilson has received money from Google for her re-election].

I am disappointed that the censorship could take place so quickly after YouTube's purchase. This censorship makes it clear; Google is going to silence anyone who makes the Bush Administration look bad. What a shame.

I hope some other enterprising entrepreneur comes up with an alternative to YouTube and Google.

I had only seen clips from the Clinton interview. Of course, the clips chosen were those that made Clinton look beligerent. Although even in those, Chris Wallace comes across as an ass.

Watching the entire interview is enlightening and deepens my respect for the former president.

I was also impressed with Keith Olbermann's commentary. It is unfortunate that we do not have more journalists like that.

When will the citizens of this country wake up? Probably not any time soon - they are too distracted by cheap gadgets from China and the latest gossip.
