PingThe Weekend Talk Show Preview Thread is up
If you want on or off of my ping list please FReepmail me
It will also be cross posted (sometime soon) to my blog at
http://wizards.townhall.com/
Here's a sample of my usual witty commentary...
The biggest news this week was the debate over the debate on the Iraq surge. Republicans wanted to debate not only the anti-surge resolution of the Dhimmicrats and wobbly RINOs but also other resolutions and amendments... Dingy Harry Reid didn't want to allow debate on anything but the "Bi-Partisan Blame Evil America and Embrace Defeat Resolution" ... Guess how the dinosaur media reported it? ...
There were two other major stories in Washington this week, the Libby trial ... and the release of the report by the Defense Department IG report ... Now, the DBM got the story 180 degrees out of whack on the surge resolution debate, so you'd think they'd be a little more accurate in at least one of these other stories, just based on the odds. But then you'd be wrong... I'm no Foghorn Leghorn so I'll just stick to saying the DBM is a tad short on telling the truth in their reporting...
... I think I detect an accelerating trend. When they get this outlandish and demonstrably false in their reporting they are either desperate or they've lost touch with reality and have begun to drink the Kool Aid. ...
... There's actually some interesting things that could happen on the shows this weekend. However, the odds are that it will be frustrating to watch the version of reality spun out by the moonbats being accepted whole and promoted as definitive...

Hopefully John Boehner and Duncan Hunter can save the day on the shows for tomorrow..
Great job once again Phsstpok, you really have brought this thread to an art level.
(By the way it's your turn tomorrow, can't wait.)
I have been on the road all week. The spin, BS and other stuff is unbelievable.
My daughter bought me sirius radio for Christmas and I keep it on FNC. They should try and remember who brought them to the ball! I am so sick of hearing about how wonderful Baroke Alabama is going to be when he is nothing more than a wannbe super lib/rat.

"McConnell is emerging as a successful minority leader, having thwarted the Dhimmicrats surge for a surge denunciation. He managed to hold all of the Republicans together to continue the debate and defeat cloture" Here is a WOO HOO for Republicans holding together.
I can't stand Chris Wallace, since the beginning I've hated him. He has almost singularly ruined Fox News Sunday. I will watch his program today, ONLY because Mitch McConnell will be appearing on it.
