When Stuffingituphisnose was interviewing Condi he acted as tho Kennedy spoke for the entire country.

[Carolinamom]

They're all delusional. They're losing BIG TIME and I think they secretly know it. We, I think, are witnessing their political death throes. So be it.

[cajungirl]

Dang,,he did say he was delivering arms to the KHMER ROUGE,,HAS HE LOST HIS MIND?

[cajungirl]

Did anyone else note Kerry was hauling material for the Khmer Rouge? At least he said that. I am in shock.

Williams claims to be a Rush Limbaugh listener. It he is not lying, that may help with his perspective.

Not sure where Williams is at but lots of libs listen to El Rushbo. Many lefties have admitted that he is more entertaining and informative than anybody on the NPR-type radio shows. Some, of course, listen to see what they can trap him on.

[mafree]

I call FTN, "Discrace the Nation"

I call it "Fake the Nation," and then there's the one on ABC called "This Weak."

[Savage Beast]

I can tell the difference between those two. Francis the Talking Mule is smarter and makes more sense.

[CedarDave]

I saw Steve's (Fox's Harrigan) interview. I don't know why he has become so negative.

I speculated he came home from Iraq to find his wife has cheated on him or his girl friend had left him or both.

Either way, he needs to be treated for terminal depression.

[sinkspur]

I'm listening to a gutless Republican coward by the name of Lawrence Korb putting down the election. Saying it's nothing, that the low turnout in the Sunni triangle proves it's a sham.

Korb once worked for Reagan and now sounds like a Democrat.

Who is this cueball?

[YaYa123]

I noticed, but I'm shakey on my history so I've been trying to google info to find out who's shakier, Kerry or me. Here's this:

"Khmer Rouge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Khmer Rouge or Khmers Rouges ("Red Khmers") was the French name, also widely used in the English-speaking world, for the Communist organization which ruled Cambodia from 1975 to 1979. The organization's official names were Communist Party of Cambodia and later the Party of Democratic Kampuchea. The Khmer Rouge is generally remembered for its violent rule in which an estimated 1.5 million people died.

The Communist Party of Cambodia was founded in the early 1950s, although in its early years it remained subordinate to the Communist Party of Vietnam. In the 1970s the Party adopted the name "Party of Democratic Kampuchea," ("Kampuchea" being an alternative spelling of Cambodia), but became commonly known by the French name Khmer Rouge. From the mid 1960s the Cambodian Communists conducted a low-level insurgency along the Vietnamese border, mainly in support of the Vietnamese Communists in their war with the United States."

The CIA sneaking in weapons to the Khmer Rouge sounds implausible, but.........Kerry wouldn't lie, would he?

[somemoreequalthanothers]

NPR radio shows are not hard to beat, that's for sure.

[JonDavid]

Did anyone else note Kerry was hauling material for the Khmer Rouge? At least he said that. I am in shock.


Khmer Rouge did not exist in 68/69. Russert could have nailed Comrade Kerry but being an Democrat operative he didn't

[ariamne]

Excellent summation, counselor.

I worked at an environmental non-profit at the time of 9/11 and it was very evident that my liberal colleagues were far more disturbed by how the attack might boost the President and bring Americans together, than by the actual attack. We had a meeting on Sept 12 to discuss our "feelings" and everyone but a couple of secretaries, who were quickly shouted down, expressed anger at BUSH for the attack and anger at America for being such a bully that someone just HAD to do this. That disgusting experience ended my days as a liberal.

[CedarDave]

She wants to run against Hillary in 2008, that's what most folks don't realize. Hilly doesn't scare her. She relishes taking down a white girl.

Just darn. Sure hope you're right about that! Will really look forward to that. And after she's president, then she can be NFL commissioner.

[REDWOOD99]

I noticed AFTER you pointed it out very early in this thread. GREAT CATCH! I read through all of the posts hoping that someone would pick up on the importance of this lie. MTP is rebroadcast here in about 45 mins. so I can see it for myself. This moron just hammered the final nail into his own coffin. The right wants him bbq'd for being a traitor and the left wants him out of the way for Hillary. What we need now is for someone to hold his feet to the fire for the Form 180 comment and call him on delivering weapons to the Khmer Rouge. Don't be surprised if it's Dan Rather.

[section9]

Well said, ontos.

A simple googling of "Condi Rice" or "Condoleezza Rice" will lead you to the conclusion that the woman is hated by the left intelligentsia. That's okay. She was despised at Stanford because she took the job of provost seriously and wouldn't hand out tenure like it was rock candy. Lefties absolutely despise Rice, and consider her a cross between butt-ugly and a Bush toady.

It's early in the second Bush term. Rice is merely at the point where she's telling her Main Enemy that she will not be afraid, nor will she be intimidated. The gay fashion folk and the power women mentioned above are merely information conduits to the larger news media and the general public. They will generate buzz, heat, and publicity around Condi, and take it away from Hillary. This is part of the process of "dislocation" that I spoke of. Condi is not trying to attract the votes of the Fab Five. She is trying to use them as conduits to the larger public to get her name, her style, and her "look" out there.

When you rely on a fawning press and courtiers, what do you do when the lights go out? That's Hillary's problem. Condi can use her looks as a weapon. Hillary can't.

That's going to make a huge difference among men. However, the way she carries herself will make the difference among women.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

[cajungirl]

I googled KR and they existed then.They were the enemy!

[claudiustg]

Kerry's a Jona now, dragging down all who get too close to him. The Dems will move away from him and this will be his last term in the Senate.

As it is written, so let it be done! :^)

[benjaminjjones]

Welcome back Alas (after the little dust-up a week or too ago, LOL).

Didn't read the thread today or watch a bobble-head talk show.

Couldn't stand the thought of watching sKerry excrete lies for an hour, so decided to give Wallace Jr. a chance & watch Fox News Sunday.

But that was pre-empted by local coverage of the Patriots superbowl send off coverage. Go Pats, but it was just painful to see thousands of fans standing in a freezing parking lot for pretty much no reason at all.

After the early news of the success of the Iraqi elections, tuned out of all political news, tried to keep History or Military channels on something interesting.

Nice to have you back tho'

[OldFriend]

Korb has been a guest on John Gambling WABC radio show numerous times. He always criticizes Dubya and can never find a single thing he's done right.

Ought to change his name to Karp instead of Korb.

When he comes on I turn the radio off.
