CBS Has Allowed McCain Campaign Aide To Advocate For McCain On Air (Think Progress, DC - May 12, 2007)

I swear this is the woman I saw this morninging on MSNBC. She was filling the Pat Buchanan slot against Peter Fenn (yes, they have Buchanan as the Republican, amazing, isn’t it), so she was supposed to represent the Republican point of view. She said that neither Giuliani nor Romney were electable and then went on to say positive things about McCain. It was really pretty surprising for an alleged Republican political analyst.
I’m just sticking this comment here because I really have no other place to do it, but I just saw Oprah Winfrey who was giving a commencement address and she said it meant so much more to be honored by “her own.” It was at traditionally black Howard U. Guess I’m not part of Oprah’s group.
Ain't it amazin' that it's everybody else who is "prejudiced"? I bet she doesn't even think when she makes statements like that.
It’s just very revealing, grey.
And then there’s this:
“The Republican Party never learns. Time and again, apparently on the theory that real conservatives just can’t win against liberal Democrats, party bosses seem compelled to support wishy-washy, moderate-to-liberal Republicans over solid conservatives in primary elections across the country.”
I think the fact is that there is a large part of the Republican party that just doesn’t much like conservative. Just how much help does Tom Coburn get for his fiscal positions? Almost none.
What I wonder is why do WE have "party bosses"? That has such an ugly connotation of corrupt dems down through the years. Was this quote from a lib source? If so, I'm sure the slur was intentional.
It’s from this piece that Phsstpok posted above.
Feeding The Mouth That Bites You (Post Chronicle - May 9, 2007)

Thanks. Hadn’t had time to look at all the links.
Looks like another one of those weeks where if there is any news we will be making it!
How many believe in, not climate change, which has been happening since the world existed, but in global warming as a solely man made phenomenon, and why is that? It's David against Goliath, but this time Goliath has figured out PR and brainwashing.
I was thinking, tonight while cooking dinner, that if Hillary was elected — with a Dem Congress and Dem Senate — after eight years we could see the Putinization of America.

Liberal money talks
By Phil Kent
May 8, 2007

The liberal wealthy super-elites who control private tax-exempt foundations have discovered success in controlling politicians and bankrolling activist organizations ranging from open borders advocates to radical environmentalists. It is especially frightening, though, to witness a recent phenomenon whereby just one of these amoral financiers, George Soros, manipulates the media by stifling and smearing center-right political voices.
Mr. Soros infamously said “the main obstacle to a just and stable world is the United States.” Mr. Soros’ motivations, and that of the Open Society Institute and his other foundations, are hatred of Christianity and his notion that “fascists” and “right-wingers” must be counterbalanced by a more powerful left.
The billionaire George Bush-hater is perhaps best known for massive funding of MoveOn.org, a group that opposed the 2003 Iraq invasion and supported Sen. John Kerry for president in 2004. Its mission: create pressure upon the Democratic Party to move it more to the left. But Mr. Kerry was defeated, so new tactics were required by the left-wing elites to hasten the changing of America.
Mr. Soros and his colleagues at the Tides Foundation see themselves akin to a beekeeper. While all the bees in the hive — the news media — fly about in many directions, the left-wing financiers believe they have found a way to simply move the entire hive to the left.
That is where the Soros-funded, D.C.-based MediaMatters fits in.

two or three years, not eight.
I realized I was being generous. The thought is enought to make your blood run cold.
Good article... wish more people read the Washington Times.
