Socialist Screed About "24" Cites Olbermann
February 3rd, 2007 7:25 PM
I just caught this, originally posted on February 1 to the Web page for People's Weekly World. It's from a diatribe against the Fox television program "24" by PWW's John Wojcik.Notice how the writer goes on to explain just why terrorism is such a bad thing.

Hillary's Time Machine: Wouldn't Have Started War if She Were Prez in
February 2nd, 2007 7:13 PM
Hillary has gone John Kerry one better. The junior senator from Massachusetts of baleful Gallic mien merely voted for the $87 billion . . . before he voted against it.That's nothing.
