Welcome to The Levin Lounge Step in and have a FRink.
Will we hear
Welcome all, to the most FUN LIVE THREAD on FreeRepublic!
Steve Malzberg should do the morning show, and Mark should do the evening news.
Well speaking for myself, I'm pretty happy.
Have you seen the "I told him so" tour that James Baker is making??
He keeps starting all of his interviews saying that all of the people that were for the Iraq War...NOW know why he and 41 did NOT go all the way to Baghdad in the Gulf War...and he has this self-righteous laugh after he says it.
I have seen him do that 3 times in 2 days....ugh.
There was that time when, ah....oh yeah they got reelected and pardons by Clinton.
...how about when......ah nevermind he won re election.
Nope, cant think of anyone in the Dem party that even have the shame, to think about resigning.
I thought it was great...but, I heard it on the darn radio.
I want to see at least Fox News put it on TV...with Saxby saying that. sheesh
And I can see Ali as head of Research.
Ugh, indeed. My prayer is that Iraq suddenly comes aright, and all of these people will have to eat large helpings of crow.
More Wild Assumptions in the Latest AP/Ipsos Poll?
The latest AP/Ipsos poll shows that George Bush's approval rating is 38% among registered voters, and 39% among likely voters. (Poll results here.) (Pdf file)

The poll also shows the Democrats enjoying a 16-point lead in the generic congressional ballot among registered voters (54%-38%), and a 10-point lead among likely voters (51%-41%).
Asked if they would rather see the Dems or Repubs control Congress -- regardless of their vote -- registered respondents preferred the Dems by 21-points (55%-34%), with likely voters preferring the Dems by 17 points (53%-36%).
This does not appear to be good news for the Republicans.
However, a closer look at the composition of the poll's respondents reveals that when asked which party they leaned toward, the respondents broke down 54%-38% in favor of the Dems among registered voters, and 51%-41% among likely voters.
In other words, the composition of the poll's respondents -- in both registered and likely voters -- matches exactly the results of the generic congressional ballot.
For historical comparison, in the 37 presidential elections since 1860, only three Democratic Party presidential candidates have won a majority of the vote with a margin of 10% or more: FDR in 1932 and 1936; and LBJ in 1964.
3 out of 37.
Yet the AP/Ipsos poll assumes such a breakdown of the electorate exists today.
That's interesting, non?

Yes, I heard him. His premise is that it would be so very hard. God bless you, Dubya, you aren't afraid of things that are hard to do. We need more of your kind. But did you hear the story of the Queen and President Reagan on the horseback ride. My heavens, I am still laughing.
Oh Ali. You know how I get crazy when you speak French!!!!!!
I just went over to ABC's web site a little earlier tonight. Seems to me that Ross is sort of back tracking on his story some. Here is a new piece of information I had not seen before. This is not about the IM's but about the email (I know the difference!!!). Anyway, apparently the email was addressed to Danielle Savoy. She is a staffer for Reynolds. This is the first I have seen a name of to whom the emails were addressed. Is this new info to you also. I don't think it really matters, but it is new information. I think Ross is getting the impression that he was had by some dem operatives, the question is, if it turns out he was made a fool, will he identify from whom he received the information?
I've been to the Lancaster PA area a lot in my life. My dad had an aunt & uncle who lived there - not Amish, Methodist! lol
Mr.FF and I were just there last over this past Labor Day weekend. You can pick out the Amish houses on the backroads, they're the ones with the dark green shades pulled down on every window. They have made concessions lately tho, every few houses or so there's a little wooden shed that matches the house and is the same size as those old telephone booths... and that's what they are. They can have phones now, even cell phones, just not inside their houses. And they can ride in cars or vans, as long as someone else (someone "English") drives. Believe me, in the Amish world, that is HUGH.
Darn...that is what I get for missing F & F!!
Thanks...glad that he did say it on TV...
Just saw that Fox News Sunday is having on Marty Meehan ..ugh.
Why didn't THEY get Saxby Chambliss...
That's why I got so darned mad at Brit Hume yesterday. Right before the Hastert press conference, he came on and said, "There comes a time in every scandal in Washington that the pressure just gets too great, and someone has to take the fall. We may well be at that time now."
Well, that's a big fat lie. When did a democrat scandal ever end that way? NEVER, that's when.
He knows the polls are weighted on the heavy side for the dems.
Someone start the countdown to Ray!
I heard Baker tell that story about Reagan, the Queen and a horse... I'm still laughing too! God bless and rest Reagan's soul.
I like it. Steve is so great.
He does not WHINE, like so many others do! Did you here him Rap this morning! He was a riot!
He and our Markee, what a team.
Steve lives in N. Jersey, last time I heard.
Do you know how hard it is to type with a 20 lb white fury dog's head on your keyboard?
