David Gregory is saying that some in the WH think the President is like George Clooney and the president can skate

[eeevil conservative]

Matthews wonders if Bush's religion is at fault. Rigid, won't change, sure he's right, are Matthews' examples

Hey Chrissie...

It's called LEADERSHIP and INTEGRITY

This means standing up for what is RIGHT....

even if it means standing alone..

for you media types, don't try this at home....it takes a REAL MAN to pull it off......

I swear he's a eunuch.

WE CAN NOT LET THIS HAPPEN!

I think that is what Rodguy said when he say we cracked the 1500 post barrier last Sunday.

Good morning

[Seattle Conservative]

ROFLOL!

I'm watching Howie Kurtz; asking Nic Robertson if he went on the Operating Swarming mission at the behest of the White House so they could get some good news out of Iraq (paraphrasing, but that is how I understood his question to Robretson, CNN correspondent). Unbelievable. What a joke Howie is. Egads, these idiot reporters think the war should have been over in 24 hours -- they just don't understand. Acting like arm-chair generals make them look really silly.

[snugs]

Good morning

[maica]

Thanks for the recap, but even reading it makes me vow never to watch Matthews.

PS: Is another WH pastry chef resigning, or is Bumiller a year behind the news? A Frenchman resigned last year.

[eeevil conservative]

GOOD MORNING MY DEAR FRIEND!

Dick Durbin this morning: "Chris, 96 senators have not been briefed on this program. Only 8 members of the senate know about it."

This dork apparently doesn't know how many senators are in the senate.

[rodguy911]

You gotta drink a lot of rum before you can sit out in that.

[Mo1]

Thanks for the summary

[anita]

Good catch Carolinamom. That proves that they are outliers spinning to hide their frustration.

Timmy Buffalobutt testifying under oath having already done a telephone interview will be very interesting. This time it will be a defense attorney looking for any microscopic bit of evidence that he lied to the Prosecutor albeit not under oath, and he will be sweating bullets trying to keep his lying butt out of jail. One little mistake in what he testifies to could pull the pin on this hand grenade sitting in his lap.LOL!

[Morgan in Denver]

No, Juan gets the "pre-release" of DNC talking points so he can use them to see if they make any sense. That's why he's the DNC Crash Dummy. If the talking points fail, we don't hear them during the week. If they sound okay, rest assured the Democrats will be using them.

[Seattle Conservative]

Tony had Peters on but IIRC it was someone else who is still over there - Peters came back recently, but had good things to report, too.

[MNJohnnie]

"Has anyone on these shows mentioned the 48,000 boxes from Iraq yet ???"

They should talk about if if for no other reason for the revolutionary new idea of open sourcing them. Govt BY the people indeed. Bush's fault!

[Laverne]

Howie Kurtz is pushing that Operating Swarmer was a "wag the dog" mission; sickening. He is pushing the David Gregory question about doing this mission to support Bush's poll numbers. Unbelievable.

[Mo1]

Geez .. there is that keyword again

Incompetent ..

I guess it's to replace calling him stupid, loser and failure

[Redneck Limey]

If President Bush is so wrong Senator Durbin, why are you doing NOTHING about the NSA program?

Durbin actually admitted why the briefed congresscritters couldn't do anything about the NSA programme...it's (as he put it) because they would have to break the law to leak the details to the press. My question....just how is it that the existence of the NSA prog came to light and exactly who should we we prosecuting for breaking the law and leaking it Senator Durbin and will you stand in the way or assist in the successful prosecution of this law breaker?
