The Weekend Talk Show Preview Thread is up

It has been posted at FreeRepublic at

It will also be cross posted (sometime soon) to my blog at

Here's a sample of  my usual witty more sober than usual commentary...

Like last week when discussing Iraq there will be as little said about the surge as possible.  Certainly a consensus that it's working won't be allowed to emerge.  Far from it.  In fact the emphasis this week will be on the four year anniversary of the start of the war and of the "huge cost" of this "misadventure."  Watch for all of the shows to highlight all of the conventional wisdom about the "mistakes" and "lies" that are the foundation of their narrative.  With the likes of Kerry, Leahy, Murtha, Brzezinski and the rest of the "back to the sixties" crowd being trotted out you know that we are going to be treated to the tired old rhetoric of of the so called "peace" movement.

<snip>

I know that the world is an imperfect place but I am increasingly worried about the extremes on the left.  They are tottering on the edge of full blown madness (and straying beyond it in too many cases).  The things that seemingly sane people say and actually seem to believe about the world today and particularly about the President are truly frightening.  I think the "scandal du jour" mindset has taken hold to such an extent that if they don't somehow bring down Bush and Cheney that they will drive a large portion of their "base" to acts of violence and there's no telling who will be made to pay for that bit of madness.  The Dhimmicrats and the DBM have been promising "bread and circuses," with a finale of the heads of Bush and Cheney of pikes.  But all they've been delivering is the message to "let them eat cake."

I went to my surgeon today and he "opened up" the scar on the graft in my eye a "little bit."  You know that whole thing about a "beam in your eye?"  Well, I think I now fully understand the difference between a speck and a beam in my eye.  Sorry to be so late in posting, both this and the awards for last weeks Sunday thread.  Once I get this going I'll finish that up, but I probably won't be participating much the rest of today or tomorrow (famous last words).

Thanks, again, for the heads up. Not sure how much I'll be on tomorrow or today. Darn it, having to work. Rats.

The one item I would like to mention is this. All the questions about terrorism and supporting the troops are scripted by GOP candidates.

I want to know this. WILL the candidate enforce the laws on the books now? WILL he prosecute Democrat wrongdoing? WILL he resolve the Jefferson of LA debacle? WILL he hold Democrats, as well as Republicans for that matter, accountable for their actions and responsible for what they do? I have not commented on Gonzalez as Attorney General but the performance of that whole department sucks.

Frankly, I'm sick and tired of the left pulling stunts and NEVER having to pay a price for their duplicity. I don't care if Chuck Schumer screams bloody murder, I would love to see a non-partisan investigation into what he knows, does and supports. Then, damn-it, make it public. President Bush has the power but lacks the resolve to fight THIS war of political ideals and philosophy.

(Okay, I'll go quietly to my room now.....)

But I wouldn't be a bit surprised to hear Abu Ghraib compared to Walter Reed at least once this week.


#####

One of the Dem committee members at the Valerie Plame exposition brought up Abu Ghraib, so we can be sure it will pop up anywhere.
