Good morning, Alas.
The Edwards' campaing has its own blogmaster, and she is a real peach (no reference to our very own Peach):
How to become a leading Democrat's blogmaster (Silky Pony's new Blogatrix)

What? No Joe Biden?
Good morning AB and everyone. Thanks again for your efforts and congratulations to last weeks winners.
Did anyone catch the FNS promo? Chris Wallace called Graham Bush's biggest vocal supporter. You could have fooled me....
Morning AB, all....
Singing in the choir today but will be back later.
Make it interesting so I can catch up.
Quick question about Edwards: Do I have the summary of his experience correct: He was a practicing attorney and a one-term Senator?
Thanks.
Binky Edwards is on MTP.
[It would be interesting to see a blink count comparison between Pelosi and Edwards.]
We are also priviledged! Lindsay Graham AND John McCain on the same weekend. Don't we feel honored. {lol}
Freeper comment......
It's zero degrees and wind chill 20 below here in northern Ohio, would appreciate some global warming Mr.Gore.
MTP:
Edwards admitted that Congress DID get "detailed" intelligence reports.
[Recall all the cries before the 04 election that Congress did not get the same intel reports as the President?]
.
Thanks as always for the thread - bit late here today lots to do up the garden.
Who was it that advanced the theory that there are really only 100 people in the world?
And how many on Sunday Talk Shows? Ten? Fewer?
Can I say this here? Jim Webb is an arogant a--hole who needs to be knocked down a peg or two.
bttt
I thought that Webb completely forgot about Iran's view of Israel. It sounded to me that Webb wanted to sell Iran as a would be ally on the WOT but then President Bush called them evil and they backed out of a helpful position. This tells me that Webb is anti Israel, therefore a typical liberal heathen.
Mark Kilmer has posted his excellent summary and review of the Sunday morning shows over at RedState. Here's the opening

The Sunday Morning Talk Shows - The Review
By Mark Kilmer
Sunday, February 04, 2007
Talking to FOX's Chris Wallace, Jim Webb made the case for negotiating the future of Iraq with Tehran; after all, he argued, Iran had backed off after the President gave his Axis of Evil speech.
Lindsey Graham made the case for the surge and added that some of those Republicans who were pushing for the sense of the Senate resolutions were "worried about how this will play out in '08." Chuck Hagel came to mind, and perhaps Hagel needs to turn again to Joe Biden. (I'll leave this "fluffernutter" nonsense aside.)
John Edwards on MTP blamed his vote for the ouster of Saddam in part on the former Clinton Administration officials to whom he spoke, who had told him that Saddam had WMD and was an imminent danger. He said his real mistake, though, was what seemed to be getting it wrong on a parental conundrum: should the President have been trusted with the authority to invade Iraq?
On TW, John McCain was interviewed first. He called those who support the Warner-Levin resolution (S.Con.Res. 7) "intellectually dishonest," because they express disapproval of the troops and their mission but refuse to do anything about it. Hagel, interviewed next, said that McCain was intellectually dishonest for trying to set benchmarks with no consequences if they are not met.
Without missing a beat, Hagel has switched his support to the Warner-Levin resolution and argued as if that one were the resolution he'd always supported. It calls for pulling the troops out of the cities. Hagel said that he agrees with David Brooks, who evidently wrote that the next generation won't care about ideology. (I want to meet these naïve and idealistic waifs!)
On FTN, host Bob Schieffer discussed with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell that the Super Bowl was the most valuable sporting event in the world. Phil Simms later boasted of how great it was to win a Super Bowl, and Dan Marino countered that he wouldn't trade his spot in the Hall of Fame and long career in Miami for a lousy ring.
On LE, Diane Feinstein said that the Senate should remove the President's "authority to authorize the use of force." She was outraged that the Republicans would block debate on the sense of the Senate resolutions. Dick Lugar said that the resolutions were meaningless, none would pass, and there were more important things that the Senate could be doing.
