That is so funny, and of course true about the most Gawd awful POTUS in the History of America. I think you could have slipped Amy in there as his biggest/most important adviser next to Rosalyn. Looks to be a really lousy day on the Sunday Talk shows, lousy by their standards is total loser trash by ours. Really great thread last week, and lets make this one even better. The New Media is great and has much more greatness ahead, the DC DBM is in it's last feeble Years. They only survive now as the Full activist, America Hating Partner to the DNC.

I'm surprised he said that with a straight face.

Yet another case for term limits.

How I wish, but our self-appointed royalty will never allow it.

[snugs]

IMHO this is pointless speculation I know that the media have to in order to keep an interest but Lieberman is not going to cross the aisle.

[mainepatsfan]

This is embarrassing to watch.

[TomGuy]

I cannot even get away from it with Sky News either it just seems to fascinate News International but then they do own one of the trashiest tabloids in the British Sun.

Back in the old days of only the 3 networks (CBS, ABC, NBC news), I could always tell when it was a slow news day when they had a 'new' report about JFK or Marilyn Monroe or Elvis. I suppose that was a technique to draw in viewers and keep them through the broadcast. Princess Diana joined that group on her death. I guess now, Anna is a member.

I'm surprised he said that with a straight face.

The Clintons aren't the only ones who lie with ease.

CW: What do you think of Obama?

CR: boilerplate approval

CW: Do you think he has enough foreign relations experience to be president?

CR:...I know he is on my committee...

CW: Your committee?

CR: The Senate Foreign Relations Committee


&&&&&&&


I love it!!!!!! Secretary Rice calls a bunch of Senators who live to give her grief "her committee.""

Take that Senators Biden, Kennedy, et al.

[snugs]

No problem just sorry it is late - doctor has just rung back and a friend of ours is going to collect the prescription and get it dispensed.

[TomGuy]

This is why senators must not be elected President.

You may borrow my banner:

[snugs]

Absolutely

[Alas Babylon!]

I think you could have slipped Amy in there as his biggest/most important adviser next to Rosalyn.

What the.... You mean that WASN'T Amy????

[mystery-ak]

CW: Do you think he has enough foreign relations experience to be president?

CR:...I know he is on my committee...

CW: Your committee?

CR: The Senate Foreign Relations Committee







OMG

[snugs]

Good point and it is amazing that they still use the same names even to this day to draw viewers. These people somehow have universal and non ending fascination with people it must tap into something.

[Bahbah]

Dowdy is not in the studio with Timmy.

Timmy is going through the history of the dust up over Geffen.

Dowdy calls it the big tiff in tinsel town. Geffen gave voice to what lots of dems have been worried about...she's polarizing, calculating and over scripted. Geffen broke the dam of nervousness over those problems, including the horn dog.

[Morgan in Denver]

At the risk of being accused of copy and paste, I mirror the compliments sxpressed.

Thank you, Snugs! And thanks to Rodguy911 for doing the hard selection work, and special thanks to our winners, Ali Veritas and Tx Radio Guy!!!!

(Great posts. I especially liked the Democrats at the Alamo.)

Get ready to hear about some senators having the rest of their hair fall out when they hear (are told) what Condi said.

LOL as Chris Matthews leads his Sunday show with the Hillary-Geffen battle. Dan Rather says it shows Hillary will fight back. Nora O'Donnell says it shows Hillary does not want to be judged by her husband.

"Brilliant strategy" says some black NPR reportterette named Michelle Norris... it. shows how the brilliant Hillary turned this Geffen spat away from her and Bill, and onto Obama. (Norris indulging in some wishful thinking here)

Bill Clinton is the best thing Hillary's got, says Dan Rather, in agreement with the financial guy Jim Cramer who says he associates Bill Clinton with finding an AIDS cure, not Monica. Voters have short attention span says Matthews

Dan Rather knows about being rehabilitated.....there he is on the Chris Matthews Sunday Show. treated like some kind of sage.

"Boom or Bust" Matthews asks about the 2008 economy. "Fantastic economy" says Cramer. Rather says good economy won't help republicans, it didn't help Gore in 2000.

Jim Cramer made fun of John Edwards as knowledgeable on the economy.

On 2008 election, "it's Iraq, stupid", said Dan Rather, who felt a need to refute everything Cramer said.

Dan Rather just back from Afghanistan, interviewed their president...who knew? who cares?

Nora O'Donnell thinks "Little Miss Sunshine" will win Best Picture. I repeat myself....."who cares?"

Matthews wrap-up rant... Will Al Gore run?
O'Donnell says no.
Rather says a possibility

[Bahbah]

LOLOLOL.
