Clip on Fox and Friends this morning from Kelly Wright in Baghdad showed an Iraqi Christian church in worship with positive comments from the minister, who had been imprisoned during Saddam's regime for preaching the Gospel. It was a very positive piece, and I don't know if this came from the Fox News Sunday presentation or not, but it was very good.

[Alas Babylon!]

I don't blame you! What a bunch of screaming media faces. All retreads from a thousand Sunday shows. vBlah, blah, blah, yada-yada-yada. Knowing each one, you could almost write the dialog for them. McCain, Biden, Levin, Hagel, Richardson, and Joe Wilson. We've heard from them a million times. Isn't there anybody NEW out there, Tim, Bob, Georgie, Wolfie, and Chris?????

I see the rat tag-team, Biden and Hagel are out again today.....

[Just mythoughts]

Thanks. I appreciate those willing to monitor the liberals and the media orgy planned for today.

The line-up is as disgusting as the "photos", I will be boycotting this "abuse" today. My visual will be all these liberal liars and crooks with pink undies on their heads.

That would be the "Bagel" according to Laura Ingraham who, btw, has become my favorite talk show host.

Steve Harrigan on Fox News interviewing Nicaraguan guy who has been in army for 8 years. Bullet went right through his helmet but he wasn't hurt. Asks him if he has anything to say to the folks back home. Guy looks into the camera and says: "Hey, INS! I have been in the army for 8 years and I still can't get my citizenship papers!"

LOL!

"I need some Pepto just reading the lineup!"

Isn't that the truth. Could you not write the script without even listening?

[Bahbah]

"Could you not write the script without even listening?"

I said this before getting to your post. Honestly.

[mystery-ak]

Mike and I just saw that...didn't Dubya give an EO months ago for those who are serving to be given citizenship?....we are racking are brains here trying to remember.

Harlan Ullman, Analyst for Center For Strategic & International Studies,
is on C-Span this morning. He said, I did not call Condi Rice a jerk. What I said to the GQ reporter was, "Condeleeza Rice is no jerk". Ullman said I've written a letter of apology to her and I called the reporter to protest the misquote.

Of course he's written a book he's pimping, that's why he's on. He named the people he especially admires in congress, they are McCain, Hagel, and John Kerry.

If FOX Sunday Friends get any sillier, I'll puke.

Two thumbs down to Face the Nation. Another perfect example of 'fair & balanced,' liberal-media style.

A Dem to bash W 'balanced' by a 'Republican,' Chuck Hagel, who will also bash W.

[olde north church]

Ya' know, this whole "only those who've been there can comment" line is wearing pretty thin.
I was looking forward to some peace and quiet from the PITA "you don't know what it was like to live through the Great Depression" people all finished dying off.

Fox & Friends just ran a report from Steve Harrigan in Karbala. He said the troops were befuddled that Sadr's "militia" members ("troops" would not be an adequate description) would be so stupid as to just come at them (my words, not his). Harrigan said that they're using anti-tank mines in & around the area. He ended with an interview of a soldier (if he was a Marine, Marines forgive me) who'd taken a bullet through his helmet. It sounded like the bullet came in the front, got under his scalp and came out the back of his neck. The soldier was from Virginia, but was from Nicaragua. The soldier's message was to the INS--said he'd been in the Army for eight years, but was still having trouble getting his citizenship. F & F hosts said they hope his request could be expidited. I muttered something that was a lot less polite than that :-))
