X Marks the Dick

I meant to write about this earlier, but was busy with other things, like having a baby and changing a baby and changing a baby and, uh, changing a baby:

At 11:04:45 AM ET Monday CNN was airing Vice President Dick Cheney's speech live from the American Enterprise Institute in Washington -- when a large black 'X' repeatedly flashed over the vice president's face!

Wow, I think the exclamation point really makes that sentence, don't you?

The 'X' over Cheney's face appeared each time less than a second, creating an odd subliminal effect.

So odd, in fact, that it wasn't subliminal and was apparently quite liminal or superliminal or whatever the antonym for subliminal might be.

Let's go with this one: "obvious."

One top White House source expressed concern about what was aired over CNN.

"Is someone in Atlanta trying to tell us something?"

Yes, they're trying to tell you and a lot of people in the rightside wings to stop tilting at windmills.

Note: I think there are to be made valid criticisms of left-leaning views in the mainstream media. I also think this isn't one of them.

Note 2: I do think, however, you should check out the picture of my newborn son just below this post.
