12. for those who follow hockey....

/yeahyeahyeah I'm a Canuck, but hear me out.

This is very similar with what is going on during the NHL lockout. On almost a daily basis an NHL player will talk to the media and say somthing like "I agree with the owners" or "I will become a replacement player if it means playing" The next day a spokesmen for the Players Union will say that the player was misquoted, or didn't understand the question or what not.

It seems everytime Bush says something they have a spokesmen who needs to clarify what he then tells us HOW we are suppose to interpret what he said.

In the case of hockey we called shenanighans, and we (fans) have lost trust and most likely will not return to the game for years. However Hockey is a game and is not important. Bush is the worlds most powerful man, everything the republican party touchs seems to be a mess from foreign policy to the environment to voting fraud (x2) when will you guys call shananighans are you afraid you can't? Look at Ukraine, they called shananighans and overturned an election....all it took was some action.

The Orange Revolution was sparked by a Network TV channel that did some actual reporting on what was really going on with the govn't. Maybe if Networks in America reported about the Govn't and for the Govn't we would see more action in the usa.

/In Bush's speech he mentioned Freedom 27 times.
