All day Rats and RINOs, for the second Sunday in a row.
We can expect to see all Democrats and RINO’s unless and until a Conservative Republican enters the presidental race.
2012?
Good morning AB! It is always the same rats and rhinos every Sunday! They just rotate them from one show to the next....lol.
Reruns, RINO’s and Democrats. Cable TV, what a deal!
Good morning, AB.
Time to put on a pot of coffee.
Hayden may be interesting. The Congress still hasn’t fixed the FISA situation and we are more and more endangered every day that passes.
BREAKING NEWS: Al-Sadr calls for an end to Shiite revolt in south Iraq. More soon ..
But, but, but, hasn’t the media has been telling us that Al Sadr is winning this battle.......
LOL... Exactly right. And with them in the background MaClame of course looks like a member of the "extreme right!" :)
“The Congress still hasn’t fixed the FISA situation and we are more and more endangered every day that passes.”
I’ve got a fine, fat twenty-dollar bill that says all those stiffs talk about is (shudder) waterboarding or other “torture” techniques that those villains apply to their beloved terrorists.
FISA? You don’t think the MSM would want anything like that around, do you? Somebody might overhear an actual criminal conspiracy to kill Americans, prevent it and then the MSM wouldn’t have a story line about the incompetent administration to run.
(Sorry about being so sarcastic, but got a couple of nephews over in ME right now who nobody’s heard from for the past two weeks. I’m sure they’re okay, but that news and then having to listen to these traitors here has got on my last da** nerve.)
At the same time I was reading Bill Roggio's report on how the Iraqis and the MNFI was kicking the beejeesus out of them, I was listening to David McDougal on Fox telling us how formidable a force the Mahdi army was, blah, blah, blah.
I knew who to believe :)
Has anyone heard from Anita? Her media nuggets was one of the most interesting posts on this thread and I miss it and her!
I’ll be watching bits and pieces of all the shows; I think Hayden may be the most interesting, but I do expect some interesting talk on the current situation in Iraq. I wonder if the dem guests will bother to even comment on the breaking news about Basra.
Maybe he and Hillary can swap war stories?
Understood. And God bless and protect those boys.
Are you telling me that an independent reporter is doing a better job than the mainstreamers, including FNC, who always report the bad and not the good? Roggio and Yon put the mainstreamers to shame.
Jamal Simmons is an Obama supporter, Carville supports the Heroine of Bosnia.
I would love for Simmons to call Carville a "typical white person."
It looks like a Sunday for democrat Pennsylvania voters only.
I’ll wait for the summaries of thses shows to find out who aligns with HRC and who favors BO.
Yup. It would be hilarious, if it weren't so deadly serious.
I could tell we were kicking butt and winning after about 3 or 4 days. The Iraqis weren't backing down and were taking few casualties compared to what they were inflicting. They knew when to call in help from US air power and British artillary. They stayed focused and coordinated. Yet I continued to hear from the media how everything was going to hell in a handbasket.
Morning AB, ALL....
.....Got some thoughts on Hillary and hey, I think it’s beyond that she’s a liar. I truly think this woman lives in her own little world and they treat her very nice in there.
For she’s got to be delusional, nothing less.
Also, am really excited that they found what is likely DB Cooper’s parachute just cause...well I like that sort of thing.
Wondering why they don’t get rid of that fat Mahdi fellow once and for all but we shall see.
Finally, I post a book review of a book by an up and coming Delaware politico....possibly Governor but I speculate.
I gave a good review of the book but I elaborated on how she stiffed me for an interview and hey, I thought it was rude.
Now she’s begging me to please give her another chance (this all came to pass almost a year ago but just this past week she finally read the thing) and once again I am in trouble although I rarely even leave my house.
Question..anyone know if MTP has its political roundtable in the 2nd half of the show. I’m trying to decide to Tivo it or not?
I think on the second half. Hi Ken...haven’t seen you in a while.
Yet I continued to hear from the media
((((
On abc radio this morning: fighting in Basra is much more difficult than expected, the situation is basically the same as it was a week age.
LIARS!
Love your tag line, maica.
So timely :)
MSNBC was the first with the breaking news (that I saw posted on FR btw) regarding Sadr wanting to call it quits. But just now on MSNBC, the hostess just asked her guests:
“Won’t the continued fighting in Iraq hurt McCain?”
So, they tell us Sadr wants a truce, then they tell us he fights on.
The media are a bunch of psycho’s....(although I will say at least MSNBC was talking about it, FNC was talking about a Cheetah attack in FL).
Should pipe these shows into Gitmo. It break the terrorists faster then anything else we might do to them.
Timmy saying that there are reports that Maliki miscalculated re Basra.
Hayden is telling him that we have been criticizing them for not stepping up and now he is doing that. (Of course, we are still criticizing them.)
LOL. Timmy asks if the goal is to have Basra controlled by the Iraqi government.
LOL. Hayden says “Of course.”
The hazards of a “fast food” news cycle and political posturing makes this entire current MSM/Dem discussion of the War in Iraq kind of futile.
Courtney I’mablond was reading headings on Fox&Friends this morning. She inserted her own commentary by saying she tried to google something yesterday and wondered why the Google page was black.[Duh! Google had a statement on their page indicating they had ‘turned out the lights’, thus the black page.]
How where oh where has our Anita gone, oh where oh where can she be?
I wonder if Timmy has a picture of the map of Iraq in his mind, and can place Basra on it?
Wallace starts out with the continued fighting in IRaq and then mentions that Sadr has called for a truce...up first:
Graham and Reed.
Graham starts right out with Maliki showing strength by going after Shiites in the South...says it puts to bed the BS about Maliki only going after Suni and Kurds.
Reed says the effort against Sadr is political and shows the fragility of the political situation there. The key is not our presence, but their own ability to step up to the plate. GIves them NO credit for doing so. He says that in the long run, this situation will go on, and will reinvigorate the civil war (not his words, mine).
Graham (in response to a rather negative comment from Wallace) says that WE have improved the situation. He finally says that Iran is backing Sadr.
Wallace asks: The surge is working, now its not so, is the situation better or worse? Reed: the situation is getting worse; Graham immediately turns to the fact that Reed/Obama/Clinton pulling the troops would create chaos, as has been evidenced. We are winning, and we should pursue victory. Again Graham mentioned Iran and its destabilizing initiatives.
LOL. But she is awfully cute.
On MTP, Timmy is asking the most slanted questions I think I have ever heard from him...and that's saying something.
Yeah, but did you know that sKerry was in Vietnam and hill was in Bosnia?
Reed bashing our troops; says that this is NOT a fight against Iran and says that that statement is BS. Says the Achmadinajod was just warmly welcomed in Iraq so it proves he is a good guy and not a bad guy. What a dolt!
Reid talks without moving his mouth. Weird!
The dems are in a very weak position re the situation in Iraq, no matter how the Sunday hosts try to spin it.
Graham taking over the show telling Reed wake up your sorry clymer — the Iranians are killing our troops, you dimwit.
Hayden tells Timmy that al-Qaida has established a safe haven in the Afghan/Pak border region and they are bringing in for training operatives that would not catch Timmy’s attention if they were in line with him at Dulles.
Think about that.
Whoa..
Morning Bahbah, AB and everyone. I’ll be lurking again this weekend, for the most part. I’m looking forward to what I can read before FNS begins here.
FISA will not be fixed anytime soon, unless the Democrats focus groups and polling indicate they are losing in the polls. Plus, we have the competition between Hillary and Pelosi going on, as each wants to be the queen bee. I just don’t see anything changing for now.
Pretty interesting, no!
And Hayden very much wanted to get that out.
Senator Graham was very good today. He was given the final word, after mealy-mouth nebbish Reid, and said that America will be judged not by when we leave Iraq, but by what we leave behind.
A great soundbite!
Love your tagline!
Timmy: “Is waterboarding torture.”
They just can’t get off it.
Hayden refuses to answer whether it is or not. He says they don’t do it.
Says the problem with using the Field Manual list of permitted interrogation techniques is that it limits them from using other perfectly legal means.
Scarey! I was going to watch reliable sources, but I may try to tune in when Hayden is on. Is he on for the full hour?
