THanks for the thread as usual AB.

The talking points will flow today.I hope there is someone here who will pick them off. I am on vacation and will be heading from The Villages to Savannah and then to Tennessee for my first vacation in over ten years.

I will miss Freeping but gotta get away.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Morning all!

Looking forward to the shows and banter today.

Thanks for the thread AB.

[Old Retired Army Guy]

Between Plouffe and Wasserman-Schultz this Sunday is going to be agonizing. Wait a minute. ESPN Has a Football Preview at 10 EST. Keep hope alive!

Can it be? The Sunday Morning Talk Show Thread 25 September 2011
is missing even one interview of Mr. Herman Cain,
THE landslide victory in the Florida Republican Straw Poll.

The Sunday Morning Talk show moderator and pundits
show THEIR racism while trying to project and 'paint' their evil onto others.

Good Morning All. Doesn’t Graham anything better to do on a Sunday morning? We’ve got 500+ members of Congress and the only one we ever see repeatedly is Lindsey G. Okay, maybe there a few more, but you get my point.

FACE THE NATION (CBS): Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, head of the Democratic National Committee; Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee.

&&&&&&

Can we expect a repeat of the highly entertaining Gillespie vs McAuliffe appearances of a few years ago? Will they sit next to each other, or will they be in separate ‘booths’ and states? Will we learn how to pronounce the RNC chair’s name? So many questions! I will have to check my tv schedule to see what time this program airs.

If you get a chance catch this Senate hearing(starts at about 20:00 mins, goes for 70 mins)

Good morning AB/All.
Have been lurking later in the day, first time I've
been able to be here live.
****
I've commented how Mitt reminds me of a
used car salesman at a N/E Rolls Royce dealer.
****
Rick needs to sharpen up on his rebuttal skills
****
Michelle seems to go off on a different track rather
than a true focus on the question/topic
****
Sarah throws the spears that hit true to the topics
and has rebuttal ability better than the rest

Just this Three Putters views & ideas...

[Hoodat]

At least they picked one true conservative. Too bad he also happens to be an Israeli.

MTP

Bloomberg says that the Buffet stuff is ‘theatrics’, that Buffet’s money is from capital gains, not regular income, and that is why his Secretary has a different income tax rate than Buffet.

Gregory asks Bloomberg whether a 3rd Party is necessary because the current crop of GOP wannabes aren’t demonstrating much leadership capability.

Bloomberg responds that a 3rd Party is NOT the answer.

Gregory: Can Obama be reelected in the current climate.

Bloomberg: Yes

Another thing I heard on
Bill O’Reilly: What Presidents Obama and Carter Do Not Understand
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2783231/posts

O’Reilly “This is not a partisan analysis. When President Obama took office, I knew he was an income redistribution guy. In fact, I challenged him on that in our first interview during the 2008 campaign. But once elected I decided to give the president a chance to see if his economic vision, big government management of the economy, could turn things around.”

FNS

Wallace makes a big deal about Cain winning the FL straw poll, ignores that Bachmann won an Iowa straw poll.

[Straw polls are about as useful as non-scientific polls on the Internet.]

Didn’t Paul win a staw poll a few weeks ago, too?

[TomGuy]

FNS Panel Question:

Will Kristol be pushing Cristie?

None of the candidate seem up to it, per Kristol.

[One debate does not make a candidate. Many earlier polls were showing ‘other’ getting 70%, however.]

[TomGuy]

FNS

Hume says Perry showed himself as no conservative because of his position on illegal immigration.

[Trouble is, most of the GOP field score a D on illegal immigration issues. They resort to the same ole canard: ‘secure the border’ (whatever that means), go to the end of the line, pay a fine, yada yada yada.]

[Friendofgeorge]

Just watched panel on FNS. They talked about the current field and the possibility of someone else getting in.

They absolutely made a point of not even mentioning the name Gov Sarah Palin....what a bunch of A HOLES they all are

Only one they mention is the fat RINO Christie. They continue to disrespect Gov Palin, who is on the verge of announcing her run.

They figure if they ignore her she will go away, I think they must really believe that

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Sad state of affairs, that when a Black man of conservative bent wins a major straw poll by a landslide, and......changes the political game overnight, not one, not one of these Sunday morning shows moved to put him on. Well, American Black folk, you have now witnessed your allies, the liberal, Democrat media at work, keeping you folks down on the economic slavery farm!!! Hopefully, some day, you will wake up and realize liberals, Obama, the CBC and the NAACP are no friends of the American Black community!!!

[Leep]

Who they really need to interview, other than Cain, is John McCain.
NOW THAT WOULD BE A GREAT INTERVIEW
They need to find of what McCanin thinks of Cain without actually having Cain on....why would they want to interview Cain..shesh../s

They should ask Wasserman Sargeant Schulz what she thinks of Cane..haha..and is she aware he is black?

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Oh gee, I see ole Wassername is on again. What a vile, nasty woman!

[mountainfolk]

Regarding the latest Republican debate and subsequent straw vote won by Herman Cain, I think that voters have gotten sufficient opportunity to evaluate each candidate as well as good insight into their potential acceptance as the candidate most likely to succeed in winning the GOP presidential nomination. I watched George Bush rise in stature each time he debated and I became a supporter because of his ability to learn fast and articulate his position on various matters of concern to voters. I was not, and am not, fussy about speech delivery if it makes sense to me. Unfortunately for Rick Perry, he has done the reverse of Bush and gotten worse with each debate. I have to conclude that Perry is a good governor for Texas but not the in depth national leader I know this country needs at this time. Romney remains pretty static and predictable and capable and is definitely the establishment pick which puts me at odds with him from get go. I am grateful for Newt being present because of the strength and maturity and self assurance he projects which bolsters the performance of all of the debaters. Herman Cain won the straw poll because he concentrates on his own points and does not waste precious time digging up bones and trying to raise himself by cutting opponents down. I think the debates have proved that any new candidates who show up for presidential consideration need to have as much exposure on the public stage as have those who have already declared. It has not taken all that much time for me to make a judgment as to character, political smarts, intellect, agility in combat (think democrat opponent) and a slew of other considerations including love of country and total loyalty to this Republic. I have not overlooked any of the candidates, they all contribute in their own way to informing the voting public on topics that need airing. I wish them all well but I will not decide just yet whom I will support financially and otherwise.
