I'm on XM channel 132...

[OXENinFLA]

Yeah, I've still got him on.

[Doohickey]

Tar baby comment is traced back to war.

Actually, he said "American lore". You're doing a terrific job. Thank you!

[Carolinamom]

C-Span I has it now.

[FreedomPoster]

Very much so. Nothing wrong with that.

[Bahbah]

Asking why he has the yellow band on his wrist. It sounds like Tony is struggling with an answer on having had cancer. I can't see him but he says he's having an Ed Muskie moment. I'm starting to cry. He talks about the great advances in cancer treatment. He gets applause.

[pinz-n-needlez]

I've got him coming in fine on the Senate CSPAN channel. They just rearranged all of our cable channels, so I don't know if it's #1 or #2.

Tony looks great and sounds better. If I close my eyes, it's like having him on radio again, patiently explaining reality to moron callers. lol

[Chena]

Me too. :) (but my screen is blurry now after watching Tony have his "Muskie" moment. I prayed for him and cheered him on. sob)

[HonestConservative]

I don't get CSPAN 3. But I do have it running succesfully on line. (like wearing a belt AND suspenders).

Oh, my he's tearing up. Bless him.

[Kieri]

He actually got some applause. I guess there are a few good people among journalists. Probably Carl Cameron.

[jazusamo]

He certainly is setting a new agenda for the criers in the Press Corps. Looks like the trashing is going to come to an end. I thought Tony would do it and he is!

[onyx]

That question stunned me. Goes to show how totally out of touch those people truly are.

I thought everyone knew...lol.

[A Citizen Reporter]

And Fox and CNN both missed that moment because they cut out early.

I was tearing up here also.

[RetiredArmy]

And you sent this response to me why?

[Spunky]

Having gone throught this last year was the best thing that ever happened to me. I lost my mother last year to cancer. Whatever we say about the health system I had the best care (paraphrase) And I feel it is a miracle.

He was very emotional.

[Peach]

Black female reporter: Black Americans need to walk to the table...

Tony: How does this pit ...

Black reporter: Employers are allowed to give jobs to immigrants because others won't take them. Some say those others are African Americans. President Fox said it.

Tony: Well, Pres. Fox has to defend that.

Black reporter: Sheila Jackson lee is saying...

Tony: SHe's a member of Congress. Of course, she's saying...

[dotnetfellow]

I wonder who that was? Hmmmmm....?

[retrokitten]

If I close my eyes, it's like having him on radio again, patiently explaining reality to moron callers.

LOL!! They make his moonbat callers look rational.

[pinz-n-needlez]

Bless you, Peach! :-)

thanks for capturing this in real time.
