thanks for the bump and compliment
I think, if I try to do this again next week, I'm going to have to reformat it as seperate posts on each show, with an "executive summary" post with just the memes, by themselves.
What I really need is to come up with a JAVA app like the "web" thing over at David Horowitz' site. I wonder how that would work in an FR thread ;^>
As to who is doing it, to me it comes back to "the network" of inside the beltway chatter. Those in the network of "players" know what they are supposed to be saying. The cocktail party and lunches rounds during the week are all about setting the agenda for things like the Sunday Morning shows.
As part of lobby reform we should demand that the guest lists of all Washington cocktail parties attetended by media players be published, along with all meals that they have with players inside the beltway. After all, their "contributions in kind" to the left in this country are worth billions. Where's CFR when you need it?
Good post, rockrr. Local Democrats I know are, indeed, buying all the Bush lied and should be impeached rhetoric, hook, line and sinker. Their hatred overshadows any common sense as they jump from one complaint to another. They do NOT want to even hear the truth and they have no desire to learn it or understand what's happening to them.
SUPER DUPER JOB, PHSSTPOK!
I just knew your pre-Sunday talk show thread would be good...and it seems you turned it into a great "outline" of what to expect.
I look forward to next weeks as well...I really enjoyed it, and hope to participate more...(busy weekend for me, this week)....
Congratultions again!
He sounds so reasonable and decent and is one of 12 children, and that in itself is experience for herding cats. LOL! I am one of 11 children and I sure can relate to that.
Which we see monthly as subscriptions, investments and advertising continues to shrink away from old media.
No. Many Freepers are pissed. Most Voters simply do not care one way or the other. Look at the state by state polling data on Senators? Only 16 out of 100 have approval ratings uder 50%. Many are in the 60s and a few even in the 70s.
There
Next think you know, rodguy will try to get Jim Robinson to install and timer in the corner of the screen, counting down the time to 24!!!

During the month of February six lucky "Factor" viewers will be flown to New York City or Los Angeles (depending on which city we're broadcasting from) with hotel and meals paid for by us.
