When you see a sensational event in the realm of personalities, like this thing with Imus, ask what else happened that day. You could also ask what else happened at Rutgers, and score a hit on Soaries there.
The day Imus was fired, two Washington Post reporters were suicide bombed. Normally if a suicide bomber sat down next to two people and set off his bomb, they would both be dead. Not this time. John McCain was brain-washed by South Vietnam. He came out like a manchurian candidate, saying that losing in Iraq is not an option. The Army extended tour length to fifteen months. Marines go six on six off, by comparison. In Vietnam conscripts could get out of the Army after eighteen months. Fifteen months is the longest tour since WW2 "for the duration". But the Imus story neuro-linguistically and quantitatively(by story and word count) blows away the fifteen months and McCain brain-washed Manchurian Candidate. The Imus story also unfolds day by day, while McCain's brain-washing and the Army's fifteen months were brought out according to "tell the truth once", only once, either at 4:00am Sunday morning or behind a sensational story like the Imus Springer circus. -Bob --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], RoadsEnd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Begin forwarded message: > From: "Alamaine, IVe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: April 13, 2007 10:08:09 AM PDT > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [ctrl] Walkin' Around Money > Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/ > April 13-15, 2007 -- Neo-con alert.
