I think you could well be right
Brit Hume just wimped out!!!
He told the panel they had to say who the nominee would be, and he just went against Gonzalez with Fred....LOL
BTW, Juan was WAY to complimentary of Gonazalez, so I KNOW we don't want him....
All the Dems have been this week ...
I suppose they think we all forgot how they TRASHED Gonzales the last 4 years ... and especially during the AG voting process
I agree ... that's what gets frustrating with the news/media ... they are always days behind us
Indeed
The other day he was reading some of his hate mail messages on the air, and as he introduced one, he said it was sent to him by someone who withheld their name, then he went on to say, but it was sent to me from the email account of the receiptionist's desk at such and such a school district.
LOL.
Who knew???
These pundits should have learned from Rathergate, to be sure and use FR for "show prep" as Rush would say!!!
Could minor Ambassador Joe Wilson himself have been the source in blowing his own Wife's cover?
It is distinctly possible, (though it may be unlikely that Joe Wilson himself directly was NY Times Judith Miller's source), since Joe Wilson himself evidently routinely bragged openly to strangers about her CIA employment, prior to such "cover" being "blown" in the press.
Here's an example of Joe's apparently routine and open bragging about Valerie being a "CIA agent," which became known directly to me over a year ago:
He certainly bragged about it per a famous and highly reliable source's (named below) account of his own face-to-face encounter with Amb. Joe Wilson prior to Valerie Plame's "outing" as a CIA agent/employee.
Based upon a personal conversation (we were in a small group eating; it was NOT an "off the record") I had with eminent historian Victor Davis Hanson (we were at a luncheon table together during a trip to Europe), it appeared entirely possible that Joe Wilson himself was the (or one source, if not the original one) possible source in revealing his own wife's status as a CIA agent or employee.
Victor Davis Hanson (Wilson presumably knew Victor Davis Hanson wrote regularly for NRO (National Review Online), had done OpEds for the Wall street Journal, and other publications, and had his own Website with a widespread following) said he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were both in the same "Green Room" before a televised debate-discussion on Iraq, etc. and Joe first warned the TV make-up person not to get powder on his $14,000 Rolex watch, then he bragged to Victor about several things (possessions and trips to Aspen, etc.), like his expensive car (I think it was a Mercedes), and then bragged about his beautiful wife who, Joe Wilson said (braggingly) was a CIA operative.
I asked Victor Davis Hanson Why he didn't write up this account.(?) He replied that Joe Wilson would probably simply deny it, since only he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were in the Green Room together before the broadcast.
However, it is now easy to surmise that Joe Wilson is a crass, materialistic, self-promoting, vain, egotistical, bragaddocio-opportunist, so this account is perfectly consistent with Valerie Plame's TWO photo shoots in Vanity Fair. (Or was it Vogue? No, probably too crass for Vogue, n'est pas?)
All these pundits discuss is the days headline, why don't they do a little research or at least have someone on that has...for crying out loud, all they have to do is log onto FR...did ou hear that Brit!
LOL--I guess WE do now!!!!

Hey ya'll check this out...it is the speech that Reid gave on the floor for that TERRIBLE amendment aimed at getting rid of Rove's security clearance!
OOPS--it didn't come out like I planned (I am a real amateur at posting links!)
Anyway, the post that has Reid's speech is #86 on the page is DID post!!!
Sorry!
Great! I do believe that the public is starting to wonder just how "covert" this lady was and Joe Wilson isn't helping it any. The more he talks, the more he digs himself in deeper.
Thanks for posting this about Rove .. this proves that Rove is not going anywhere .. and contrary to media reports .. his relationship with the President has not changed.
"They cannot accept the voters decision, and they want to continue arguing until everyone comes around to their superior wisdom and leadership."
You are so correct. The liberals do not believe you are smart enough to know what's good for you .. and it's up to them to make you do what's right. The fact that you rejected their candidate tells them - you're even more stupid than they already believed.
When they lose again in 2006 and 2008 - I'm hoping the msg will finally get through to most of the sane dems and they will throw the bums out and try to remold their party after the Zell Miller's.
I sent one after his Thurs. and Fri. "My Word" segments. It began with, "You are my hero!!!"
Perfect! ;*)
After seeing the Anchor Man today .. when I think of Wilson, I think .. Ron Burgundy.
