f'ing says he has photos.

A few people have posted this line -- I keep wondering: Photos of what? A young John F'n leaning against a street sign saying "You are now entering Cambodia,(dated)12/25/68"?

[Carolinamom]

I was just about to post the Breaking News that Beckel just said that he didn't understand why any democrat would criticize this election.

[BigSkyFreeper]

I hope FNC repeats FNS at 5pm ET like they usually do. I normally don't watch on Sunday morning. I got a couple of TV preachers I like to watch, then I watch MTP.

[rodguy911]

Uhhhhh Minnesota, is that near Ft. Lauderdale?

[finnigan2]

"That question redeemed Russert in my eyes,,it was just amazing to me that he asked it."

- I'm sorry, it didn't redeem Russert in my eyes. He should have been asking that question three months ago - when it mattered.

[Claytay]

I can't stand Bob. Most of the time he says the worst stuff.

[rodguy911]

That could easily be it.

[Bernard]

I googled KR - it appears they began in 1970 - which would be after skerry was there. They were compatriots of the VC, not us.

That would explain why John Kerry thought he was in Cambodia - he must have been on a secret meeting to help organize the Khmer Rouge.

[BigSkyFreeper]

God I hope the alphabets carry it. But, since it's a Sunday, I kind of wonder if they'll pre-empt sports programming for the speech. ABC has a Thug Basketball Association game at 1:00 ET, CBS will have College roundball, NBC has Arena Football, and FOX has some NFL Special.

[Carolinamom]

I can't either. But his comment was just off the dem reservation. Wasn't he the one who gave a personal check to a prostitute?

[freeperfromnj]

You think the alphabet channels will carry POTUS's speech?

I doubt it. They didn't even think the elections were important enough to break in with one minute of coverage last night or early this morning.

[Claytay]

I think but I am not to sure.

[onyx]

I need a nap, but I am waiting
til Noon, although I tend to agree
with you... I doubt the alphabets
will cut-into their silly sports
for POTUS.

[rodguy911]

Beckel had to pay by check prostitution is a legitimate write off in the rat party.

[rockrr]

"Kerry said "I'm sitting in the wrong seat, aren't I?""

The correct response should be. "Yes, these seats are for American Patriots. You'll have to leave!"

[onyx]

Right.
I am NOT optimistic, just hopeful.

[daisyscarlett]

FNC has a special schedule today...both Brit, Cavuto and O'Reilly are having special shows so I don't know when there repeat will be. I would like to see it too as I missed Condi so as to watch Kerry for a bit on MTP. He is so arrogant, thinking the election was close and thinking he has a chance to be renominated. And that statement that he is for parental notification of teenage abortion, provided there is a filter in between! What nonsense!

[maggief]

Nah, it's a suburb of Canada.

Land of Liberals.

I'm a guy. Very heterosexual, happily married with one lovely daughter. Women such as Condi are rare. They can think in both linear terms, like men, and they can think in non-linear, relationship terms, like women.

Condi knows the effect these little boot shots will have on her Main Enemy (psychological dislocation) and on her base male voters (extreme applause). She's at the point right now where she has to lay down markers and force Hillary to start doing stupid things like adjusting her hair.

One of the things Condi understands is armored warfare. One of the keyes to being a successful panzer skipper is to dislocate your opponent, not to destroy her. 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.

Hillary struck too soon. Her affirmative vote for Condi was a shoddy bit of maskirovka that fooled no one. Boxer shouldn't have been the lead dog, because of her ralationship to Hillary. Hilly should have gotten a dimbulb like Mark Dayton to carry her water for her.

One last thing: more and more Pubbies are going to start saying that Condi looks awfully easy on the eyes and would make a great candidate in '08, especially when you look at our rather thin bench going into that year. It's the little visual things that will seperate her from the crowd. Watch as she makes speeches across the country (in Battleground States, of course) to civic groups about foreign policy in an age of Unrestricted Warfare. Which is what Karl Rove had her doing last year in a dry run during the 2004 campaign.

Nothing is done by accident by Condi Rice.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

[section9]

Oh well, perhaps you should have rung Condi up. She could have given you some advice!

Be Seeing You,

Chris
