"We Have Made Remarkable Progress" — GWB Video Smackdown

Viral videos have a power that partisan media lacks. If a video succinctly makes a point about Bush's record in Iraq, thousands or even millions of people, regardless of party affiliation, may decide to spend a minute and a half to check it out. All it takes is a click of the mouse.

An excellent article in a magazine, however, requires finding a copy and reading for half an hour. Too often, the people willing to make that investment already agree with the article's point.

You tell me. What catches your attention — the video below (spotted on TAPPED) or this article?

Why do the Democrats keep voting to give Bush the money? What hypocrites. Vote for Ron Paul.

Some of us may never know the answer to that question.

I, for one am nauseated by the sights and sounds of the idiot in chief. I mute or change the channel on TV when he attempts verbalization of anything. Changing the channel entirely saves me from watching him smirk.

Fortunately, on the internet, I can choose not to venture in to be subjected to the above.

Right on, Bill! I started doing the same thing years ago...every time the First Fool comes on the tube I change the channel..muting isn't good enough, since I can still see his squinty-eyed chimp-smirk. Bush is the villiage idiot, and Cheney is his dark overlord Rasputin...I am sicked to hear the crappity-smack vomiting from the mouths of shrub's 25% of the nation supporters. Every day a few more of the shrub supporters go quiet...but we need to institutionalize the hard-core koo-aid drinkers that choose to stick with him...
