>>>Fineman-Condi's performance today cost President Bush the election.

Really. Par for the course, or should I say par for the "discourse".

Howie Fineman is a Matthews lackey and has an agenda. Russert is not the fair minded pundit he claims to be. Matthews worked for Jimmah Carter and Russert worked for Mario Cumo.

JFTR. The Aug.6, 2001 PDB, was a memo on historical background of Al Qaeda. It wasn't a threat warning or even a threat analysis.

The Librats are desperate and want to regain power, at any cost.

" Howie Fineman is a Matthews lackey "

A couple of years ago,I was channel surfing and came upon a C Span event, being televised from ,of all places, Margaret Carlson's kitchen.
The event was a party in honor of the publication of a book by Chris Matthews and the C Span cameras were in the kitchen .
It was fascinating and slightly voyeuristic at the same time, to watch Matthews, Carlson,
Fineman, Andrea Mitchell,
Ben Bradlee and other DC media regulars interacting.
Obviously they were all long time friends and completely comfortable in each others presence.
This was obviously not the first time they had broken bread.
At some point,someone in the kitchen had forgotten about the C Span camera and started the obligatory Bush bashing. As I recall, it was Howard Fineman who shushed them and reminded them that there was a camera present.
They are all buds and social friends, in addition to liberal Democrat shills.
