Hunter is just a media whore.

^^^^

Sadly, he just seems to be a really angry man, who is not working in anyone's best interest now.

[snugs]

Or lunch in my case very unhealthy one, Cargrilled BBQ flavour Doritos and a Guacamole dip.

[Bahbah]

WSJ's political reporter John Harwood forgot his day-job & behaved like a dem. at Hillary's National Press Club meeting which is against WSJ ethics.

Now that is an intriquing little tidbit. I would love to know to what it refers.

[BigSkyFreeper]

It's all too fancy. So many options, so many buttons, so many choices. I memorize only what I need to know to navigate where I wish and to record what I wish...lol.

LOL! Someday soon I will be joining the "Tivo" revolution. DISH Network has some really nice digital video recorder receivers out now. I've been waiting for the prices to come down on them before I make the plunge. I specifically want to get one with dual tuners so I can have the TV in the living room and a small TV here in the computer room hooked up to the satellite dish. :)

As long as there's Brit Hume, there's one pom pom waver for ya.


Ever stop to think about the fact that knee jerk criticism and unthinking anger at the Republicans is every bit as intellectually indefensible as "pom pom waving"? Brit merely reports the facts rather then just regurgitating the spin. The facts don't change just because some people don't want to listen to them.

Cargrilled BBQ?

Cargrilled?

I've heard of cooking a salmon on the engine block while you drive, but Doritos? 

(grinning, ducking and running away)

P.S. how's your dad?

The funniest bit ever that Bernard did was years ago, about 5 in the morning...he "called" itot he overnight sports talk show..which precedes Imus on the station in NYC..doing his home-boy imitation, ranting that hockey was racist, because " all the players are white, and they beat the crap out of the BLACK puck.." It was a hoot..

[snugs]

My oh my that did make me laugh out loud and I can just imagine the way it was delivered the pair of them's timing is better than a lot of the so called professionals.

[Gipper08]

Pence really believes we are in danger of losing our majority if we do not deliever on the promises of 94.He has taken his case to leadership behind closed doors for years,but like Reagan said if you want anything do get done you have to take your case to the people.Pence and his rebels will make the party as a whole stronger not weaker.

[anita]

Which is why people are poking some fun at Congress

###### Brit Hume, the Washington Managing Editor and his wife Kim Hume, Vice President and D.C.Bureau Chief, are profiled - "At home with the Humes" - in the latest issue of Southern Living Magazine.




Oh how wonderful! We get SL delivered.

[MNJohnnie]

BSF: Hey Mr. Schieffer, yer tie is not on straight!

Schieffer: GAK!! [Bob Schieffer's face turns blue]

:)

NOW THAT is a great idea! We can even have a lottery to determine who gets to be the tie straightner. Think of the money we would make!

[BigSkyFreeper]

I prefer the Salsa Verde Dorito chips, eliminates the dipping sauce. ;)

[maica]

I heard a report that Buchwald also has kidney failure, and has decided to stop his hemodialysis treatments. Perhaps, he wants to explain his decision to millions of others who are undergoing the same 3x weekly procedures.

[Morgan in Denver]

Me too! Congrats Anita, OldFriend,Samantha and all the good posts from last weekend.

[onyx]

They'll give you a rebate which will bring he price to zero.

[snugs]

There are some quite funny jokes reported from it over the years and very funny routines. The President and the VP have both done very funny sketches in the past. It is shame that no cameras are allowed.

[onyx]

LOL -- Bernard is hillarious. He does the dialects perfectly.

[Seattle Conservative]

Good morning everyone!

I agree w you. I was a bit surprised w Hunter's stance on this as IIRC he's usually been fairly supportive of the Prez, especially on war issues (he has a son in the military that was/is in Iraq, too). I've always liked him when I've seen him on TV, except over this issue.

[snugs]

Yes he did not stand for reelection last time it was widely believed he would not have been reelected.
