I actually think Fox does it on purpose. They get the most unappealing Lefties to argue the Leftist line. It's smart. No matter what-- Estrich and Jackson can't sway anyone.

I notice when the commercials ended we had Rita and other reporters. Geraldo and Susan seem to have disappeared.

Gee, I wonder why?

Well, Susan has made me glad to see Rita Cosby. That's an accomplishment.

Oh-oh...Geraldo is back. I hope he goes back to positive coverage.

Odd that some people have such a strong revulsion against her. I can take or leave her - she's got a good voice and she was there for VN troops - that's certainly OK by me.

Why bother listening? Here is my handy-dandy condensed version of the liberal response:

No WMDS! Bush lied! Condi Rice lied! Of COURSE we're against Saddam BUT...! Rumsfeld met Saddam in the 80's! We MADE Saddam! Fascist! Nazi! No blood for oil! Haliburton! Abu Ghrabe! Rush Limbaugh makes policy! Police state!

There, I just saved you one hour.

Iraqi's in the USA can vote in their country's election- what... up to a day before the Iraqi election, and possibly on the day of the election ?

Too bad the US military forces that made this possible cannot vote while in Iraq for the election in the USA- up to a day before the election, or on the day of the election...

Ironic...

Best part is, it requires NO batteries.

Maybe that's Estrich's problem...

She needed her neck bolts tightened.

Christine Amanpour's not happy unless she sees misery, death and failure. The Left, not just the Democrats but their water carriers in the legacy media as well have made an emotional investment in another American defeat and it must be painful to them it isn't happening. I'm an optimist and always felt things will be better than they seem. And they are! I don't know how liberals can go through life being negative and disparaging about everything. That's not the America I know and love.

I don't think so--I just Susan Estrich on Fox and she said that "so what" there are big lines, what about tomorrow, the next day?

In other words, the election is no big deal in their minds because our soldiers will still by "occupiers" in Iraq and she even made the remark that "the troops couldn't even get close to the polling places", then asked Geraldo if that was the sign of a successful election---

I guess she wasnt' watching when it was explained that the American troops are deliberately staying as far away from the actual polling places as possible, so it won't look like an American imposed election.

The swimmer is up, he's the spokesman for the insurgents...Baghdad Ted. He just had a press conference and said people are not voting, the Americans lie.

I like her because Barry Sadler did. Sadler's endorsement is good enough for me. May Barry Sadler Rest In Peace.

It must be the weekend crew getting lucky and the jackson just mugging for the cameras to capture any face time he can grasp. (ironic considering that jackson would be the type of person to curse fox, that is until it is pointed out fox has better US ratings that the other networks combined.)
