x marks the republican slime machine

everyone's been talking, blogging about the x'ing of darth 5 deferments cheney. it has been proven to be a technical glitch. (thanks to the dan report) however, that isn't stopping one california p.r. firm from claiming it was intentional.

"team hollywood, inc." has sent out a press release saying that callers were told by cnn that it was done intentionally. the "founders" of the firm then called in and apparently taped cnn staff telling them it was done "intentionally".... "amongst political statements being made by the network were the words that the "x" was intentional, as an act of free speech by cnn."

the thing that "team hollywood, inc" didn't let on is that kevin finn, one of the "founders" that supposedly "called up cnn", is a republican "operative"

kevin finn recognized by national republican congressional committee

the national republican congressional committee (nrcc) announced this week that kevin finn of santa monica, california has been selected as a recipient of the 2005 ronald reagan republican gold medal. - usnewswire

kevin finn is also the founder of a company called terroralertsaferoom (run out of the same santa monica address as team hollywood, inc. but incorporated in delaware). preska thomas, finn's partner in both ventures, claims on terroralertsafefoom's website that ""it is also factual that prior to 911, both china and russia warned america about the twin towers and the threat of chemical and biological agents. 911 did happen."

yes, ms. thomas, 911 did happen. but "factual" that china and russia warned the u.s. about 9/11? where are those facts ms. thomas? probably out in the garbage can like the "tape" of the cnn newsroom saying that the x was intentionally done.

so proof is in the pudding republicans reward liars, fear mongers and slime machine operations.
