Was Bush Speech Scheduled To Pre-empt The View?
ABC show set to feature 9/11 truth heavyweights cancelled in favor of Bush's Al-Qaeda obsessed press conference

Did master political strategist Karl Rove schedule and script George Bush's speech in the Rose Garden yesterday to pre-empt the possible appearance of 9/11 truth movement heavyweights on ABC's The View?
That's the suspicion many people outlined to us in e mails and calls yesterday.
Though we learned privately that guest appearances by William Rodriguez and the Loose Change crew on the show hosted by Rosie O'Donnell were cancelled at the start of the week, the ABC website still listed their names as being scheduled.
Presidential news conferences that take place in the daytime and do not relate to any kind of breaking news or national event do not cut into regular programming on major non-news channels, and yet ABC chose to air the speech in its entirety after The View was cancelled for that day.

Many 9/11 truthers now suspect that this was a Rovian ploy to distract attention or in effect completely displace the subject matter raised by Rodriguez and Loose Change that was set to be aired on The View.
In his speech, Bush re-hashed dated and questionable "intelligence" about Al-Qaeda and entered into a sophomoric rant about how the terrorists want to kill our children, invoking the phantom group no less than 19 times.
"Just about everything else that came up during the hour-long news conference was traced to bin Laden's terrorist network," writes Dana Milbank today in the Washington Post.
"They are a threat to your children, David," he advised NBC's David Gregory."
"It's a danger to your children, Jim," Bush informed the New York Times' Jim Rutenberg."
"This last warning was perplexing, because Rutenberg has no children, only a brown chow chow named Little Bear. It was unclear whether Bush was referring to a specific and credible threat to Little Bear or merely indicating there was increased "chatter in the system" about chow chows in general."
Was Bush's relentless propaganda pitch about Al-Qaeda scripted to coincide with the slated appearance of 9/11 truthers on The View, a show that enjoys 30 million viewers over the course of its air time? Was this a Rovian scheme to neutralize 9/11 truth?
In between his 10th and 11th mention of "Al-Qaeda", a sparrow stepped up to the plate to challenge Bush on his crap and put the cowardly Washington press corps to shame by pooping on his shoulder.

I don't watch the show either. BUT about 3 million people do,
Which tells us that those 3 million people have no brains and have no lives.
It's a very sad commentary about the state of affairs in America.

I say hooray for President Bush! He found a good way to prevent a one-sided propoganda viewpoint with no rebuttal from being broadcast to the millions of idiots sitting on their butts in the middle of the day while the rest of us worked for a living.

Anybody want to hazard a guess as to why no one else other than Rosie wants to step forward? .....................................I didn't think so.

What is up with this huge fascination with Rosie?
What she says and does are discussed on this forum constantly.
Every day it seems she's on the news (why the doings of celebrities are newsworthy in the first place is also beyond me)
I punched "Rosie" into the search box and got over 800 returns!!
Try it yourself.
It's beyond me what it is about her that makes her just so interesting.
I have yet to hear about her saying or doing anything of any interest at all.
Yet there are pages and pages and pages about her at ATS.
Is ATS turning into the new Rosie O'Donnel discussion board?
Can someone please enlighten me about this?
Management and sources close to Rosie O'Donnell tell us that the host of The View is incensed with what seems to be a deliberate campaign to discredit her before she exits the show and that Rosie may cut short her contract and leave early next week.
The show was again in the headlines this week following O'Donnell's blazing row with Neo-Con Stepford Wife Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
Prominent 9/11 truth activists William Rodriguez and the Loose Change crew were set to feature on the ABC broadcast as guests yesterday, but the entire show was cancelled in favor of carrying a Rose Garden Bush speech.
We are told that ABC always knew Rosie wasn't going to host the show yesterday but misleadingly failed to alter the schedule stating that the 9/11 truth representatives were set to feature.
Now we understand that there is a deliberate effort on behalf of the show's Neo-Con producer to drag Rosie's reputation through the mud in the final weeks of her hosting appearances.
This is an orchestrated attempt to discredit O'Donnell and make other TV networks think twice about handing her a new show.
O'Donnell is deeply incensed by this move and is considering walking out on the show early next week. She is meeting today with ABC chiefs in an attempt to resolve the matter but could be gone within days.
O'Donnell has consistently sparked controversy for being the lone voice on daytime television in speaking out against the war in Iraq and questioning the official story behind 9/11.
We also understand that Rosie is seeking another forum to go fully public on 9/11 and present more evidence that directly contradicts the government's version of events.
