Spinning the news cycle

Anyone want to bet that on the Fitzmas Day (or Patranakka, if you prefer) the 1600 Crew announces

  • the capture of bin Laden
  • the capture of the #2 al-Qaeda guy in Iraq
  • the retirement of Darth Dick
  • the invasion of Syria
  • the invasion of Venezuala
  • the nationalization of The New York Times
  • that Harriet Miers is stepping aside, and Neil Bush will be nominated in her place, because of his long-time relationship with the Preznit and his moral fiber
or some variation thereof to gain control of the news cycle for another 24 hours while they get suitable lies about everyone in America processed. After all, what they do know can hurt you and now's the time for them to prove it.

Incoming....

I would not be surprised if they pull a stunt. I'm sure they're dusting off plans to bomb Syria for Harriri's death. These guys are drunk with power and they don't want to give it up.

Yeah. I expect something exactly like that to happen.

Imagine if these people put all the energy they waste on gimmicks and games into actual stewardship of the country.

I'm putting $5 on the headline:

"Patrick Fitzgerald IS Abu Musab al-Zarqawi!"

Just posted something over at my place to the effect that if Fitz slaps these guys with real felony charges--perhaps treason--you'll see the noise machine switch to a new frequency.

Expect to hear a lot about "national security," I think.

Kinda like Bill Clinton launching a cruise missile attack on Iraq every time Monica Lewinsky farted in public.

Oh yeah, speaking of the Clintons, will the Vince Foster murder shocking revelations be coming out in the next 2 weeks, too?

I figured Neil would have got the Fed Chair nod! Being so astute in ripping off the country in the Silverado Savings and Loan scandal!!

You have a future in politics, it seems!:)

I know one headline that the 1600 Crew WON'T use to spin the news cycle (since when has the Iraq invasion been "news"): their greedy war has killed more than 2000 soldiers!!

I'm thinking some sort of elevation of the Sesame Street Color Terror Chart.

Hey, Bean. You know Clinton was shooting at Osama bin Laden, right? While you right-wingers were distracting us with that Lewinsky nonsense, he was trying to prevent a terrorist attack.

I'm anxious to see your answer to that one.
