Do we have a ping list for those of us who HATE THE WEEKEND FOX AND FRIENDS CREW?
To kick off the weekend, get a load of this from the Wash Post:

Jack and Juliet, Sittin' in a Tree?
Fox News babe Juliet Huddy's buddy-buddy relationship with failed Illinois Senate candidate/alleged sex-club-goer Jack Ryan has tongues wagging at Fox News's headquarters in New York.
The duo were spotted holding hands and "gazing adoringly" at each other in the lobby of the cable network last Friday, our spies tell us. "They weren't exactly trying to hide anything -- it was pretty obvious they were together," one eagle-eye tattled. It's no secret that the perky "Fox & Friends" weekend anchor is a big fan of Ryan. "I have enormous respect for the man," she wrote in June on her "Fox & Friends" blog.
Add to that the fact that Huddy, 35, is recently separated (note from ACR: Didn't she recently get back from her honeymoon?) and Ryan has been divorced since 1999, and the peeps at FNC just can't help but put two and two together.
Ah, not so, says Huddy. "Unequivocally not true," she told us. "He's a friend of mine. He has a girlfriend. . . . That rumor has been going around for a while, by the way."
Ryan called us yesterday to clarify: "Not true. I know I've never held her hand in my life, though I wouldn't be against it. We're just friends."
Huh. So our spies didn't see you two holding hands? Says Huddy: "This person must be hallucinating. Seriously, that blows my mind! It's almost funny. If I were dating somebody and trying to hide it, I wouldn't do it in front of the Fox lobby."
Fair point, Juliet, but who said anything about hiding?
Insomnia for me tonight, actually this morning. I've been reading the threads. Lots and lots of panic. And a lot of new people posting, very negatively. Lots of handwringing that because President Bush didn't decisively win the debate, he's lost the election.
