MASSIVE STRATEGIC BLUNDER:

 

Cheney said this in his interview on CNBS last night:

 

"The press, with all due respect, (is) often times lazy, often times simply reports what somebody else in the press said without doing their homework."

 

Considering the absolute control which this administration has enjoyed over the press corps since 9/11, I think it's safe to say the gloves are now coming off in editorial meetings this morning.

 

Any journalist who is not offended by these comments deserves to be called lazy, and probably deserves to be fired. The laziness to which Cheney has referred is actually expressed in the press corps' willingness to accept governmnet propoganda as fact - and print it, without checking the underlying assertions to ascertain the truth, and the "agenda" behind the story.

 

Those days are over, and Cheney did it to himself.

 

STRATEGICALLY TONE DEAF

 

 

 

Cheney blasts media on al Qaeda-Iraq link

 

Says media not 'doing their homework' in reporting ties

Agree.

 

But I wonder if J6P reads editorial and op-ed pages.

Matrix Script Glitch:

 

The script called for the release of the (manipulated and delayed) PPI yesterday, supported by a day-long DOW and Ten Year Treasury buy program - and then followed up by a happy-talk interview on CNBS with Prime minister Cheney regarding the magnificent Goldielocks economy, brought to you by the Dear Leader.

 

Unfortunately, that interview turned out to be a fairly hard-hitting Q&A regarding Cheney's credibility. While the Asian markets were supposed to carry the ball forward following the Cheney happy-talk interview, they instead tanked...quite possibly because investors around the globe are increasingly frightened by our leaders' apparent disconnection from reality.

 

As a result, 990N has been buring through cash this morning in a desparate effort to turn the futures green prior to the open.

 

Time for a script rewrite?

An Ant:

 

These issues are moving beyond J6P. The rest of the world will respond to these matters in ways which have yet to be accounted for. Contrary to popular belief, we do not rule the world just yet. They may collectively decide to vote for our next President with their feet.
