In Ron's defense, I don't see how he is any worse than any of the others. Ron could do "Hardball", and do it about as well as its present moderator. As clueless as he is, he is no more clueless than his colleagues.

Monica stated on her radio show last weekend that she was getting a new show on MSNBC that will be in the same time slot as "Connected". She wont have a co-host. I can't remember when she said it would start; sometime in January IIRC.

Reagan Jr. is a smarmy twerp... I can't stand him. But I liked Monica.... I expect we'll see her again.

The saddest demise of a radio show was announced yesterday. WOR radio fired Bob Grant in favor of a cooking show.

Despite Grant getting the highest ratings for the show, they preferred to go with higher paid commercial spots for so called niche programming.

Ron got too many of his Mom's chromosomes and not enough of his Father's.

Roger Ailes remarked that he really liked Aaron Brown. Thought his programs were 'edgy'.

In this incestuous world of broadcasting, anything is possible.

Monica is definitely a TV personality. Her radio show is kind of boring but on TV she is really quite good.

Hope she gets a real program of her own and doesn't ahve to have 'both' sides to every issue.

I'm surprised that Monica Crowley signed up for what was obviously going to be a loser program.

That must have been an interesting dilemma for her: does she stay at FNC or leave for a higher profile at a lower-tier network?

Well, if the dog show gig does not work out, I would suggest interior decoration with a speciality in tract lighting.

Sounds like ole Ron has to pack his saddlebag and mosey on back to Brokeback Mountain.

I'm out of the loop on this.

What's all this gay talk surrounding Ron Jr?

OK, I know he was a ballet dancer but is there something else out there? He's married too, aint he?

Yes, but teamed up with Ron Reagan, Jr? Monica must have suffered a momentary lapse of reason. She's probably been kicking herself for that since 15 minutes into the first show.

Thank God Reagan adopted Michael.

Amen. I haven't seen Michael on any news shows in a while, or not as often as I used to.

He's proof that genetics may have not as much as effect on children as people think it does. If I didn't know any better, after listening to both of them I would bet money that Michael was The Gipper's natural born son, and Ron Jr was the adopted one. Ron Jr. took so many pains to go out of his way to become the "Anti Gipper", that he looked like a human parody of a person. Rather than at least a lefty who buys his own BS, he was just a contrarian. Probably had the office next to the "Argument Clinic" for people who loved President Reagan to be abused. I bet Ron Jr. hates jelly beans only because Dutch loved them.

"We've spent the last year bringing you quality programming -- the kind of political debate show that you don't really see anymore."

THANK GOD FOR THAT

"Reagan now lives in Seattle with his wife, Doria, a psychologist whom he married in 1980 after much public speculation as to his sexuality."

You are correct. He is married.

(Apparently that hasn't stopped all of the speculation.)

"I'd be more inclined to belive he'd pitch Bare Essentials makeup."

Much better.

How about "L'Eggs" thigh highs?

"I've tried to watch the show...i really have..But
the longest amount of time that i can usually
stomach it, usually is about 15 minutes."

That's 14 minutes more than I could stomach.
