Brit is doing what he is told to do

Really? I don't get that at all from Brit Hume. I only watch SRWBR and Neal Cavuto, but I've always thought Brit was not taking orders from any pied piper...

"I think it's hilarious how the MSM and democrats are conspiring to scare voters about faulty voting machines. You'd think they would see the irony, especially when one of their main talking points is how Republicans use scare tactics on voters."

So true. The polls are starting to look up for Pubbies (knock wood) so instead of the Blue Wave across the country, Dims and the DBM are now talking about voting machines and sending 1000+ lawyers across the country so, when they lose, they can scream fraud, the machines weren't right, etc. Same old playbook they used in the last 2 elections. Of course, as you said, they fail to mention the non-existent voters, missing cards, and, let us not forget the 1000s of illegal voter registrations put forth by ACORN in MO, Ohio and probably other areas.

Oh I think Halperin has an agenda to represent slightly left of center Dems but mandate far leftist points of view.

It was a question of degree.

Let's not forget that liberals have to use crazy talk to excite their base. But even then, they can't rely on their own to deliver the vote.

These days a definition of an American liberal includes the trait of belonging to a political minority, without understanding that liberals are a political minority.

Gotta tell you SC, I have learned volumes about political strategy this election cycle. We have been horn swaggled by the DNC/msm/old media with their we(Republicans) can't win mentality and it started months ago. We need to set the agenda next time and not let them get away with a thing.

Hearings, hearings, hearings.....We've been through this before. It's call obstruction. The benefit???? No time for new legislation and continuous negativity.

I found the "Private Investment" plan for SS in one of Bubba's State of the Union messages. Forgot which year.

MSNBC is hot today....Craig Crawford is on Chris Matthews echo duty.

Craig Crawford tells Alex witt that high republican officials have told him, (Hushed Tones), that this Saddam verdict is not good news for republican candidates, because any mention of Iraq reminds voters of the war. Martha Zoller disagrees, she's some kind of radio talk host I never heard of .

She must be a good guy, because everytime she starts to speak Crawford and somebody else named Greenfield, I think, try to shout her down. they really got crazy when she mentioned the economy and lowered gas prices.

3 ..this and that
4 that and this

I am afraid you are right about Brit leaving when his contract is up. On his show last week he made a joke saying, "Why I know I won't be in this business much longer." I thought that was very telling.

There was a thread yesterday that included Ruby Ridge. Deval Patrick (running in MA) was a prosecutor then:

Ruby Ridge revisited: Deval let sniper off the the hook
Boston Herald ^ | November 2, 2006 | Kimberly Atkins

Posted on 11/04/2006 12:16:33 PM PST by happinesswithoutpeace

As the Justice Department’s chief civil rights prosecutor, Deval Patrick made the controversial decision not to criminally prosecute an FBI sniper who shot and killed an unarmed woman as she held her infant daughter in her arms during a 1992 standoff in Ruby Ridge, Idaho.

I like Brit, but I would be happy with Jim Angle or Brian Wilson taking over Special Report.

Carl Cameron would be funny.

LOL

It may be a rag but it is still widely read. This is not a reason to fire Don Rumsfeld, who is doing exactly what he's supposed to do.

I read this is coming out. I disagree with it myself but it this is an executive decision that President Bush will make. Rumsfeld was asked to reform and modernize the military and he has done a good job of it, in my opinion. Yes, there are complaints but few alternatives offered, meaning different strategies to accomplish what needed to be done. There are some long time service people who resist the move to the more advanced use of technology and a leaner, faster fighting force. For example, one thing Rumsfeld did that upset some of the old guard was to mix separate artillery, infantry and armor units into one group. The traditional separation was resisted by those who did not want change and wanted to continue the status quo. I agree with what Rumsfeld did to consolidate these three elements into one fighting division that did not have to play political games in coordinating these necessary functions used in battle. Another element that Rumsfeld changed was the inter-service coordination to make the Army, Air Force and Navy closer to decision making in the field, and away from the bureaucratic oversight and interference that made success harder to obtain.

I have not read it yet but will. My concern is this is a normal evaluation and pro versus con concerning these changes and what would be the best way to accomplish the task given to the military. Sadly, it will be used as political fodder to score points without regard to what’s best for the military and winning wars. I am sure people who are anti-military and antiwar will use this to press their viewpoints without regard to accomplishing the goals that are worthy of attaining. This biased agenda makes political articles worthless as to being helpful in continuing to field the world’s finest fighting force. The goal, in my opinion, is to have the finest fighting force we can have.

Once Brian Ross interviewed over 40 Page's and figured out that Foley was guilty of not much more than buying them pizza, this became a non story.
