2. You might not like them but they seem to reflect more popular opinion than

the news sites.

3. Well they leave out massive segments of the population

But they're great for feeling the Boomer pulse. I don't think I've ever met an X-er or Millenial that uses AOL.

5. Wouldn't it have been something had the media ignored the book?

That's been the general pattern since bushco took (literally)
office. I'm so GLAD something has finally come out that nails
bushco and his murdering thugs. I love watching them squirm.

:applause:

I only wish it had come out years ago. :(

7. It is a start but real progress would be if they reported Vince Bugliosi's book

"The Prosecution of George W Bush for Murder"

Even Keith Olbermann is keeping far away from it.

10. I know he had tough questions about RFK's murder...

very reasonable questions, with no forthcoming answers.
And I believe he's written a book about JFK's murder
(apparently 20 years in the making)

I'm surprised Keith is staying away from it-- are any
television hosts interviewing Bugliosi??

Have you read it?

11. I haven't read it yet but intend to do so soon. I have heard a radio interview with Bugliosi

and he believes he has layed out all the facts and all that is needed now is for prosecutors to arrest Bush.

There were several threads about the book on DU a few days ago. Just do a search. The articles go into detail. There is also a video of Bugliosi on youtube discussing the book. That is posted in DU under politcal videos. Here is the link
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=385&topic_id=138379

To my knowledge, no one in MSM has interviewed him and he said in the interview that I heard, that they are keeping far away from him.
