"She is a candidate to end up converting to our side."
While true, I hope she doesn't. As a "D" working inside the belly of the "Republican propaganda machine", she carries a lot of weight with the Libs. If she converts, her voice to the insane will be lost. She is EXACLTY where she needs to be. She causes pain to us from time to time and keeps FOX honest, both of which are important. But, she causes 10's of 1000's of libs to stop and think from time to time, and THAT is critical.

Still no explanation of why she was drunk on election night...

No, you have it wrong. It is the Morlock from the original movie "The Time Machine"!

Then there's Brian Wilson's great sin. In his case, the problem wasn't NOT asking a question, but trying too hard to ask tough ones of the Senate minority leader and the party chairman, who had joined together to make it look as if there was no problem when there very obviously was. That, and using a swear word in answering a question from a Washington Post reporter Brian himself later admitted that he wished he'd known it was a Post reporter.
I missed this. Anyone know what happened with Brian Wilson?

I was hesitant for that very reason to post this article. But I feel sorry for her when people impersonate her voice on the radio-Laura Ingram. She also seems to me to be a very unhappy person deep down inside.

Yes! I thought I was the only one who thought that about her.

What happened with Kinsley? Estrich thought Kinsley didn't have enough women writing op-ed pieces for the LA Times, released some E-mails, and suggested that Kinsley's Parkinson's disease was affecting his intellectual abilities.

Never have liked what Susan stands for, but I have usually respected her.
Every once in awhile she goes over the line, but basically, she stands for what she believes and does it rather well.
To: thoughtomator
Susan Estrich is the only liberal I know who came out and decried Gore's tactics in Florida. Agree with her or not, she can, actually, be fair minded.

I scanned Estrich's book in the bookstore, and like with that Kinsley exchange, find her to be silly about feminism. She was spinning like crazy against the Swift Vets - being an advocate by unfairly painting them as liars. So I wouldn't say she's the
paragon of fairness. But a more or less stand-up liberal. She doesn't give x42 a pass on his being a sexual predator.
Do any liberals listen to Estrich in a way that makes them appreciate what it takes to be fair? I doubt it.
To: coffee260
Susan hates the unborn just as much as any feminist I have heard from, but this time, for once, she is speaking straight.

But .. I don't appreciate the fact that such an irrational leftist is able to have that much sway over producers at FOX. Maybe that's why I get so disgusted and just turn it off sometimes. And .. don't forget she's at a university teaching our children her brand of garbage.

Estrich wanders into and out of the "honorable liberal" category for me. Sometimes she drinks the Kool Aid like other liberals but she does have a limit and can be quite honest at times.
To: upcountryhorseman
Except when beating up Michael Kinsley at the LAT back in February and March when she was upset about the representation of liberal women on the Op Ed section. Eventually she starting making public attacks about his fitness to serve based on his illness.
Here's a link from Cathy Seipp, who covered this story
