And Laura Ingrahm had Evan Thomas on her show today, gushing over a book, and being nice as could be.

We could caption that photo and have lotsa fun.....

Foley: "Mine's this big.".

President Bush: "In Texas they're this big!"

Some pictures just write their own captions.

I read the article that Evan Thomas wrote about this Foley thing....and he had a fact that I hadn't heard...

That the Fordham guy that used to work for Foley, but left him...and is very gay....and is one of the "sources" against Foley...was having lunch with Foley on THAT Friday, just as Foley got the phone call..that basically ended his career.

Coincidence???

I can't stand it when she starts gushing about how she likes so and so--how nice they are to her. BARF!!! If they could ruin her and get her off the air all those "nice people" would do it in a heartbeat.

"I like Chris Matthews, he is always so nice to me."

Only reason I listen to her she is a tad bit above Mark Davis who I turned off years ago.

Well, that was probably the most embarrassing picture they could find, so that's why they used it. I quit reading TIME and NEWSWEAK a long time ago because they're essentially DNC mouthpieces. They're gullible about any foreign tyrants and cynical about Americans. They're hostile to the way most Americans live our lives.
