I just saw Blitzer outlining the coming events that are designed to totally destroy the chances of the Republicans retaining congress, and he was obviously full of glee at the prospect.
I watched as Dan Rather anounced that Al Gore lost the election. I thought he was going to cry. LOL!
YEAH, remember how SHOCKED and I mean SHOCKED after the elections the mediaWHORES with along with the RATS were when they finally figured out that the silent majority were the so-called CHRISTIAN FREAKS!! I LOVED IT!! And I already have the bubbly chilling for the shellacking we are going to impose on the DIRTY EVIL FUDGING VOMITS FROM HELL...DA RATS on election night....AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH that felt good!
Yet,
Nothing about how the Dem's have said they've wanted it
that way since 1994....
Or,
How how they're planning to make Bush a Lame duck, along with our
entire Government for the next TWO years.
/Salute
It has always been a wonder to me that Republicans have always been just as zealous to cover up Democrat debacles and scandals as Democrats have been.
The message should be America, and not just President Bush.
Rush should get this message out.

Campaign finance reform was designed to stop a sitting *president from taking illegal contribution loot from a sworn enemy - right?
Well, I hope the dwindling CNN audience here, along with their brothers in Syria, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen, enjoy their spoon fed mush.
I don't get that either, heaven knows that the favor would not be reciprocated. Dems gleefully exploit Republican missteps.
several points here
pMSNBC is wall to wall with all the usual suspects starting tomorrow morning at 6 a. m. my time.
Muslims IN AMERICA demanding this and that and vote democrat and them having a TV station.
Mark this 51 yr old's words
we will fight muslims in our streets
Red Dawn is coming and in a couple years is my guess.
My advice ? Buy a hi speed reloader and teach all
your family how to use it. Like minded neighbors too.
I have video I recorded on my comptuer from Nov in both years... I should post at you-tube as a teaser for this year.
It was hilarious, and very entertaining for a few days there when they actually questioned what they were doing before they completely forgot any lessons and reverted to same mantra, the same playbook.
He's saying that the liberal media gave the Dems a billion dollars in free advertising during this election cycle, and McCain/Feinmess did nothing to "regulate" it.
I have to agree.
I never did hear what the outcome of this was, but in the Peoples' Republic of Seattle, here's what happened to 2 conservative talk show hosts that discussed an initiative:
KVI talk upheld as donation (KVI=local Conservative station)

OLYMPIA — Comments made by radio talk-show hosts this past summer supporting anti-gas-tax Initiative 912 should be considered in-kind political contributions, a Thurston County Superior Court judge reaffirmed Wednesday.
Judge Chris Wickham also found that the I-912 campaign had complied with his ruling by reporting the contributions to the state and closed the case.
The ruling was called a blow to free speech by the law firm representing the I-912 campaign, which is seeking to overturn a 9.5-cent-a-gallon increase in the state gas tax. They vowed to appeal to the state Supreme Court.
"Campaigns and media figures are going to have this in the back of their heads. 'Am I too close to this, am I talking about this too much? Should I be having lunch with this guy from the campaign?' " said William Maurer, executive director of the Institute for Justice Washington Chapter, which represents I-912 in the case.
Others, however, say Wickham's ruling was narrowly focused and does not infringe on free-speech rights.
"We did not ever want to be in a situation where anyone felt that their speech was limited," said Michael Vaska, a Seattle attorney who helped bring the case. "We just wanted people to have the right to know who was paying for this campaign."
The issue stems from a lawsuit filed by San Juan County and the cities of Seattle, Auburn and Kent. It sought to force I-912 sponsors to fully disclose the identities of contributors who gave money via the Internet and to disclose what they considered in-kind contributions from the talk-radio station KVI.
The plaintiffs argued that KVI hosts John Carlson and Kirby Wilbur were actively involved in the initiative and used their shows to promote the measure.
Wickham entered a preliminary injunction in July requiring I-912 backers to report Internet donations and in-kind contributions from Fisher Communications, the parent company of KVI.
The judge's ruling Wednesday essentially reaffirmed his initial decision, but he also specified that the ruling dealt only with the roughly two-month period from when the initiative was filed to when it qualified for the ballot in July.
Limiting the time frame set aside concerns raised by I-912 backers that the state could come after them for violating limits on in-kind contributions during the final weeks of the election. No such limits were in place during the time period specified by Wickham.
Doug Ellis, assistant director of the state Public Disclosure Commission, said his agency considers the matter closed. The I-912 campaign complied with the court ruling by reporting the KVI commentary as in-kind contributions. The I-912 campaign has listed five in-kind contributions from Fisher Communications valued at $20,000 each.
Carlson said he doesn't believe anything he or Wilbur said on the air should be considered a contribution. "I disagree that openly supporting a campaign for any cause or candidate constitutes a political contribution," he said.
