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.

Democrats Call on News Networks to Balance Stories TVweek ^ | September 13, 2006 | Ira Teinowitz

Top Democratic congressional leaders are complaining to network and cable television news executives that the networks are giving the party short shrift in national security stories.
"Until now, there has been a complete absence of balance in the news coverage of national security issues," House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. and Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said in letters sent yesterday to top news executives at NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox News Channel and CNN.

Coors Brewing Co. is making a record spending push for the company into the gay market.
Its new print effort, a Coors Light campaign that plays off Grant Wood's painting "American Gothic," marks the start of a bolder effort by the country's No. 3 brewer to capture a greater share among gays, a group prized for their brand loyalty and high disposable income levels.
"When you have your biggest competitors investing heavily in a very brand-loyal beer drinking audience, you need to be there. You just can't ignore that," said Joe Landry, publisher of The Advocate.
Previous gay-targeted efforts by brewers, including Coors, tended to be either general-market ads placed in gay publications, gay-oriented promotions, or general-market ads with the addition of the six-color rainbow flag, an emblem of the gay community.
Good luck, hope you do!
Considering the memo is is utterly insane for Rowley to be such a wack job political Leftist.
LOL!! thank God I do not look like my mom...love her, but....
I have NO SELF CONTROL when it comes to FOOD!
I LOVE FOOD!
on Monday- I ate a whole plate of nachos by myself.. then met some friends elsewhere and couldn't decide which flavored wings I wanted... so I ordered a plate of 50... 10 of each flavor....
of course, I also had to eat everyone esle's pickles, and fries on their plates too....
;-)
I was just talking to a guy in White. He's trying to get me into carp fishing. Right now it's bass, muskie and catfish for me.
oh my
pleading the fifth a lot today...
;-)
I was quoting Rush.
No Miller...
No Coors...
what's left?
Rowley is currenlty a wacko far Leftist Cindy Bansheehan type runing as a Democrat for Congress. Hoping she brings the ditch witch up here to campaign for her.
Religious leader Ali Badda Kolu said the Pope's comments represented what he called an "abhorrent, hostile and prejudiced point of view".
I'm still trying to find these same Muslims condemning the 9/11 hijackers; or indeed, any of the Islamofascists murdering "infidels" in the name of Allah and Mohammad.
Old Style?
LOL!!!
NO WAY!
YOU called you a RINO!
I CONTRADICTED THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ROFL!!!
When's the fatwa going to be issued to try and murder this guy? That's real Islam. Someone says something about Muhammed, supposedly good Muslims try to fatwa someone to death. They'd really hate me if I was in the public forum. I'd point out the historical fact that Muhammed was an out of work womanizing gigolo, taking advantage of his wealthy widowed sugar momma, and was drunk in the sand one night when the "Angel" supposedly came and revealed the "Koran" to him and told Mohammed that 3000 years of men and woman got it all wrong, and Mohammed would be the ONLY man chosen in history to get God's word right. THAT is the fact of Muhammed. The insane brutal nature of Mohammed and all the slaughtering and raping and torturing he did for decades converting by force, killing the unwilling, proves that.
Smoked carp is half way edible, but is no where near the taste of pan-fried battered catfish.
Busch?
Me too...I think he and Cheney and Tony Snow are very effective when they stay tough.
Go W!!!
Oh I dunno, I don't drink beer. Well maybe one, once a year at a bbq, but other than that, too many calories.
