Perhaps the Political Suicide Club Conservatives might want to consider this. In all the political wet dream fantasizes that "Conservatives win by losing" what do they think happens to their slim chances of taking BACK the Congress if the Democrats follow up this with a reinstitution of the Fairness Doctrine?
The Fairness Doctrine would totally destroy Conservative Talk Radio. Without talk Radio the Conservative ability to win the Congress back goes from slim to nonexistent. This wacko wild butt guess that by losing the Congress the Republicans would be "forced" to more to the right is the dogma of political Know Nothings. This "idea" shows a complete ignorance of the powers of incumbency and the very real damage Democrats could do even if by some miracle they only held the Congress 2 years.

My blood is boiling.
Loved her in "They Shoot Horses Don't They?" Hated her since "Annie The Ack-Ack Gunner."
I used to kid my mom about her being such a QVC junkie. Then last Christmas she gave me a box of their crabcakes. YUM YUM YUM does not even begin...~!
Any thing to get Bush. It's really disgusting.
Man, I miss this thread for 30 minutes and its already past 150?
Perfect!
No offense to Eeevil, but do you think we could get Rush to run as AHun's VP?

Interesting point on the round table last night.
Powell may have told Armitage to keep quiet, before Fitz was ever in the picture, to try to save face for the State Department.
I am a stay at home Mom and I change diapers FREEP to the sound of your (uh she said voice not music) voice.....
there- fixed it....
whew! forget them diapers!
I'll bet Hanoijane has never really listened to Rush. Her pea brain couldn't take it, all right. The Truth always scares commie-libs.
Kofi will be out in December. He neglected to fill out his financial disclosure forms; however. Seems there is a loophole which Kofi has taken advantage of, what a surprise.
HEY!! Why would THE ARMY want him???
Oh Really? That is good to know. I love crabcakes.
Interesing.
Rush already took a call at 23 after the hour. He's hot on this Fonda interview.
Hey CT were are over here. Did you not get pinged?
Even better. No diaper butt.
Look Rush why do we care what this old traitor thinks?
Location: Los Angeles; Celebrity: Jane Fonda; Restaurant: The Ivy
My daughter who works in the film industry was treating her Mother (me) to lunch at The Ivy.We were just about to be seated when I heard this loud, famous voice behind me say"Fonda, table for four) demanding to be seated.The host looked at us and I just made a sweeping motion of my hand to indicate let them be seated.I did not do this out of deference to Fonda but I saw no reason to cause a scene!
