Something else....all last week the MSM tried to portray McCain's criticism of the Clinton North Korea policy as something new. The MSM didn't want to have to say Hillary started the war of words, by blaming the NK nukes on Bush, so they declared this was the beginning of Clinton v McCain 08 presidential race.

BS alert!! McCain has been on Bill Clinton's NK policy going back years and he wasn't about to let Hillary get away with ignoring his long held position. We might have taken comfort in McCain rushing to the defense of Bush, but in truth, McCain was defending himself. Read the following eye opener written by McCain in 2003:

Residents in Western Maryland and on the Eastern Shore say there are many whites among them who will not vote for a black candidate

Note, however, that the whites they interview say they WILL vote for him and they are REPUBLICANS. Republicans do not, by and large, care about your race.

At home making and eating her gin-soaked raisins???

#160,that is telling it RG be positive and ignore the slimeball DBM and heir minions. They are trying to depress the vote of the Pubbie Base while trying to pump up their base(some of which are actually legal and get up before noon),but even by transporting them sometimes they still mess up. You can lead a horse to water,but they sometimes do not follow instructions. LOL! The Rats have tried to run as Republican like in a lot of districts,and they have stolen so many of the 72 hour GOTV plans,and strategies from the Pubbies,but they do not have much to work with, they are not very bright. Sometimes I think the Rats are so devoid of their own good ideas they just go about stealing Pubbie ideas. The most striking thing about the Rats is how they will push anyone with little or no experience as long as they can say that he/she was in the Military,even if they just swept the floor at the Pentagon. Tells a lot about how they are perceived on Defense.

LOL! That WAS a hoot!

The should be upbeat even if privately they feel that seats might be lost but they fear if what they think privately happens if they have not said it on air it they will thought of as living in a dream world the so called bubble.

Surely they realise people are not that stupid that they would prefer them to be over optimistic but encourage all to get out to vote.

[Seattle Conservative]

ROFLOL!

Juan showing his does not understand how the various branches of government work

[snugs]

I believe that when you get him on a show that he does not have to be partisan I in fact enjoy listening to him.

[penelopesire]

or handing out cake in New Orleans....?

[longtermmemmory]

George Stephanopolos is during a pure fluff piece for Ford in the senate race.

The fact he puts the 10 commandments on the back of his campaign business card as a political ploy is a really sick.

[Seattle Conservative]

Thanks for posting. I remember seeing that before, but forgotten all the very many connections. Truly amazing isn't it?

[eeevil conservative]

Amazing the lengths that reporters will go to- in order to find some small town, invoke the KKK, etc- and then find one idiot willing to talk about whites being racist....

but they can't bother with any REAL investigation into real issues and matters that effect elections.

I have a feeling that Steele would be hurt MORE by racist blacks (who cling to failure as black pride and success as "turning white") than he would be hurt by racist whites in the election.....

even Bubba hates her. He will do the minimum required by her highness

Actually, he needs her to be elected to the WH. Then she would be in a position to cement his spun legacy. He needs her there. With her there, all the questions about his pre-911 inactions would vanish, and Bush2 would get all the blame. Bill's legacy would be rehabilitated as Hillary builds her own.

Warner is an idiot. Anyone who believes that GW does not know what he is doing regarding the war needs to go here:

(scroll down to Thursday 13, hanson)

A piece by Victor David Hanson entitled
Do we have a strategy in the war?

Hanson lists 6 reasons why we do:
1. Beef up recruits at home.
2. Kill terrorists here and abroad.
3. Take out authoritarian regimes.
4. Support Democracy worldwide.
5. Wage war of ideas..freedom of individuals.
6. Keep moving on.

Hanson also states many other ideas of brilliance. This is an article that defies a summary, every point is so strategic it cannot be summarized.
Jihadists/leftists aim is "an insidious weakening of the spirit of resistance".
Hanson also asks the big question that haunts all of us who want to see victory in Iraq and elsewhere:
"Will we have the will or vision to see the war through to the bitter end?"
This is a typical V.D. Hanson work of art and shows his sheer genius once more time. It is the classic good vs. evil story.

M. Novak has an excellent article today:

Did you end up watching Kerry?

I did. I noticed something. He always slips in a little comment at the end of the main comment. This is said fast in a lower tone of voice and it is a lie.

Well, a more outrageous lie.

I noticed something else. He's learned to talk a little faster and not pause for breath as much. Chris Wallace had a hard time getting him to stop at the end so he could ask him about his presidential ambitions.

It was amusing to hear him cite Nixon as a loser who finally came back and won.

He says he wouldn't be swiftboated again. Wonder how he can avoid that? Maybe by finally releasing his records? Don't think so.

We are, the New Media, we are fearless!!

Any wonder why, then, that both Hillary and JohnnyMc want [need] a gatekeeper for the Internet? JohnnyMc has already tried one piece of legislation that got knocked down. He has vowed to try again.
