Thanks.

When I started posting this thread, there was only around 2-3000 active posters. Sometimes you could go 10-20 minutes without a single reply to any thread on a Sunday morning. I had always watched the Sunday shows (the only one that was any good was David Brinkley) and spent a lot of anger yelling at the tv, etc. So it was extremely wonderful to share my thoughts with others, and also listen to the (IMHO) brilliant analysis of the shows by intelligent, capable, CONSERVATIVE minds here on Free Republic. The fact that Free Repulbic grew so much over the years and this thread now gets hundreds of posts with a contest for the best posts is somewhat overwhelming, but the reason I stick with it still comes down to my happiness at being able to vent about the shows and read the great analysis!

ACK! Sidney Blumenthal is on Fox and Friends! And Kirin is STILL pushing that "win by losing" idea for the Republicans, and even BLUMENTHAL says it's an unproductive idea!

LOL. I've said it before, Alas, finding this thread saved my sanity and my electronics.

Well, this thread is a haven for me. It helps maintain my sanity when confronted by the crap that the Sunday shows generally are.

Thanks.

I rarely comment on your thread, but I always read it. There is always something to learn here.

I used to watch the Brinkley show too - wondering who was the conservative POV betwn, Sam and Cokie - when David retired and turned it over to those two...

actually even coming from a famous Democratic family, I thought Cokie used to be fairly thoughful in her remarks, although her husband is horribly vicious about anything not raging liberal... but even Cokie has gone to the dark side...

I can't watch any news any more, except for the Snowman's pressers and this thread every week.

thanks for doing this, I do run through it every week - saves my blood pressure.
