And this is why I don't watch the news!!!

From the Carpetbagger Report:

Wow.
During the July 17 edition of ABC’s Good Morning America, co-anchor Diane Sawyer falsely claimed that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) “vows to filibuster, talking all night to close out all topics besides a vote on Iraqi troop withdrawals.” […]

Additionally, on the July 16 edition of Fox News’ Special Report with Brit Hume, Weekly Standard executive editor Fred Barnes asserted that Reid is “filibustering his own bill.”

(bangs head on desk)


I can almost understand Barnes screwing this up; he has to earn dog biscuits from Karl Rove somehow. But Diane Sawyer has been a professional political correspondent in DC since 1978. Before that, she worked in two Republican White Houses. She must know what a filibuster is, and she must realize that the Senate Democratic leadership hopes to defeat a filibuster, not engage in one.

With Chertoff alerting us of a possible terrorist attack from his "gut" feeling, the falafel guy from Faux Noose running around like a lunatic attacking blogsites, and distorted news reporting from Diane Sawyer, it makes you rethink and consider living in a cave and tune out the media!
