Bush Flip Flops
Even as his preferred campaign strategy is to diss opponents as vacillating prevaricators, here’s a long list of King Bush’s flip flops. My personal favourite?
“[If elected], Governor Bush will work toestablish mandatory reduction targets for emissions of four main pollutants: sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, mercury and carbon dioxide.”
VS
“I do not believe, however, that the government should impose on power plants mandatory emissions reductions for carbon dioxide, which is not a ‘pollutant’ under the Clean Air Act.”
the bush versus bush video from the daily show illustrates this nicely: http://www.comedycentral.com/tv_shows/thedailyshowwithjonstewart/videos_corr.jhtml?startIndex=13&p=stewart
I read a recent report that in January and February, The Daily Show was the most watched “News Show” on Cable TV, ranked ahead of any show on CNN or Fox.
That makes a lot of sense, somehow.
