The farouche and feral media czars of the White House moved in for the kill to take Fox News down, but the MSM stood up for them. Amazing stuff happening right now. Fox and few others are covering this.

Psst, one of Glenn Beck's secret phones rang. Anita Dunn's husband is supposedly getting a new job. Mr. Dunn's name is Robert Bauer. Keep watch.

I think Mr. Bauer (Moaer?) is replacing Greg Craig as White House council.

Good Morning. You will appreciate this one........I was having dinner with little three year old Miss Ava, who has not slept through the night in over a week, and told her we could plan an outing the first day she stayed in bed all night and didn’t toddle into mommy and daddy’s room. I found a message.........I better gas up the car and plan to pick her up THIS morning. LOL the little stinker played me BIG TIME. but mommy and daddy slept soundly. it will probably cost me a toy at wallyworld and lunch out. do I have SUCKER stamped on my back or what?

I think he ran eight times. I'm suprised he's not dead yet. He was an old crackpot back in the 80's.

I’ll bet farouche (which sounds like the name of a French author) is from where we get the word “ferocious”.

Someone on the left will make the farouche claim that barring Fox News is Bush’s fault. My expectation is Helen Thomas.

this last time?

I remember him running from jail in either 88 or 92, probably 92. Had the whole half hour infomercial for him including where he called Queen Elizabeth the world’s biggest drug dealer.

On the kook scale from 1 to 10 he has to be a 15

I’ve looked into it, but there appears to be no direct linkage between the two, even in the original Latin the spelling is different... but I’ll keep looking between other things to do here in the office.

ok, so you’re not a pedophile, but i still have no respect for men who screw leftist women or even WOULD hypothetically, if they were the last woman on earth etc. I prefer to think we are more than the sum of our biological urges!

It is the left that declares that the personal is political.

The heart wants what the heart wants, opposites attract, etc.
