Tick…tick…tick…tick…
If The Raw Story is correct, then the mainstream media should be breaking the “news” that George W. Bush is a confirmed deserter from the US military sometime in the next week or two.
Though my first, hopeful reaction is to think this will hurt Mr. Bush in the election–and it certainly should–my second, more cynical one is to think that it won’t make one damn bit of difference. Bush conservatives aren’t going to believe this even if it comes independently from the top five newspapers in the land. They’ll just dismiss it as more of that “liberal media” I mentioned not long ago.
Nevertheless, it’s always interesting to watch the frogs’ leg kick when you apply the electrodes…
