Oh yeah...this guy is a straight arrow (laughs). I still couldn’t pick him out in a line up. Never ever saw him.

[Hoboken]

So long, Squinty. You served Obama with honor and distinction.

[RegulatorCountry]

Looks like one of the brothers from that house show to me.

They live in their own little deluded, self-aggrandizing world, don’t they?

They consider it a national tragedy when one of their own succumbs to anything, from overdosing in bed to dying somewhere near a combat zone sipping on a Perrier. All the while, American soldiers are out there alone and unafraid trying to make friends and be kind to locals and duck and cover from rabid mujahedeen blasting them with RPGs under impossible ROEs. They make me sick.

[Gaffer]

Well, there you have it. I bet he knows Shep.

[Red Badger]

He’s waaay too short at 5’ 10” according to Wiki.

They are 6’ 4”, IIRC................

Inside and out.................

  "You know, I wanted to sit on a jury once and I was taken off the jury.
    And the judge said to me, 'Can, you know, can you tell the truth and be
    fair?' And I said, 'That's what journalists do.' And everybody in the
    courtroom laughed. It was the most hurtful moment I think I've ever had."

Probably.

[Red Badger]

There does seem to be a resemblance.................maybe 'dad' got around....................

[BillyBonebrake]

Maintaining vapidity is exhausting work. .... Take a rest Diane!

[woodbutcher1963]

Maybe the crew got sick oft he SOFT FOCUS lens they needed to use on Diane every night. Some evenings she was so blurry I would wonder if there was something wrong with my TV.

[rjsimmon]

I had heard this morning that Ms. Sawyer was diagnosed with breast cancer. If true, probably why she is stepping down.

[lee martell]

I don’t understand what you just said. The words you chose, and the lack of punctuation has thrown me off.

[Red Badger]

HighDef does seem to bring out all the little ‘mistakes’ in skin cosmetics....................

[Red Badger]

Could you translate that into English, pleas? or any other recognized language..............

[lee martell]

A most Golden Moment! I believe she was stunned at everybody’s doubt of her ability to be honest.

[lee martell]

I had actually thought that whole interview was staged, until now. Maybe it wasn’t staged. Maybe Hillary was mouse trapped into making a fool of herself the way it looked. What? they can’t handle their own truth either?

[SampleMan]

They had to cut her, the soft-filtering had gone beyond the limits of human technology.

I was flipping channels the other night and saw her in a split screen. Her image was totally washed out. I couldn’t even discern whether she had a nose or eyebrows, while the other talking head image was perfectly normal.
