Thanks, Phsstpok. But I stole it from Glenn Beck, who used it on his show.

[maica]

Love your word - Nontroversy. Consider it adopted!

[rodguy911]

You have just posed "the " question of the day what to do about Iran. Obviously we can send our warplanes over and decimate a lot of real estate and whatever real quick,the problem seems to be that wackmennenjob is almost begging us to do so, it all seems so surreal.

And since we already know not to trust anything they say or do what is their real objective?

And then there are those who are concerned about the down side, trouble is you have to draw a line somewhere, but where?

[maica]

She was/is? a career prosecutor who wanted to make her bones by hitting a tobacco company for $113 BILLION dollars. Apparently her bosses told her to chill.

Chris Wallace showed his liberal roots when he asked her: How did that make you feel? [Being told what to say in her summary to a jury, IIRC[

[Bahbah]

F&F is discussing the effect of having good hair on getting elected President.

This is at least as important as what Russert is covering today, so I am better off listening to this nonsense than to his.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Brit's about to lose it with Juan.

[Mo1]

Diane Feinstein resigns [from Senate subcommittee]

I know exactly where you are at Bah, trouble is you can't look at a DBM production as anything other than that or you get discouraged quickly.

I look at it only as an opposition viewpoint. I want to know what they are thinking and what their latest stalking points will be. You always get a birds eye view of that on some of the shows MTP in particular.

If you look at the shows from a viewpoint of "fair and balanced" you will always be disappointed, it's only a matter of degree.

[Bahbah]

She was/is? a career prosecutor

She has previously been involved in efforts to damage the Administration. I was reading about it yesterday, but I can't remember the details or where it was.

[Mo1]

Even the Judge basically told her to chill by saying she couldn't ask for that much money

She didn't like the Judge's decision in the appeal

[Carolinamom]

In addition to adding a date certain for our troops' pull out from Irag, it is obscene IMO that the House added billions in pork to the bill. Traitorous, greedy, and conniving dems should NEVER be in leadership positions.

[johnny7]

Shame on some so-called conservatives & republicans who are glad ti throw stones along with the media & dems.

It burns me up as well... they forget 8 years of the Clintons and the Carter nightmare. I disagree vehemently with Bush on a couple of issues... but I know full well what I'd be getting from a DhimmicRAT or a sell-out RINO.

[maica]

WOW!

Perhaps she resigned from MILCON because she could not take the heat generated by the Bohemian's exposÈ of her ethics (which was partially funded by the Investigative Fund of the Nation Institute). Or was her work on the subcommittee finished because Blum divested ownership of his military construction and advanced weapons manufacturing firms in late 2005?

[Bahbah]

If you look at the shows from a viewpoint of "fair and balanced" you will always be disappointed....

It's been years since I had any idea of fairness or balance on these programs, but this is over the top. Russert claims to be a serious "journalist" but he blows this "nontroversy" (great word) up when he knows there is nothing to it because his goal is to do damage to McChimpy Bushitler. That he would treat this thinnest of gruel as a real issue diminishes him to the point of non-existence for me.

[Alas Babylon!]

Very good point! Snugs, I know you're not here, but when you get a chance, an award of recognition for Mo1!!!

Several vitally important things are going on in the world concerning Iran: The UN Security Council imposed new sanctions, and the illegal capturing of British sailors in Iraqi waters. The UK has drawn up their Cobra team. Things could get very hairy, and soon. Nancy Pelosi rams through a vote cutting off funds to our troops in Iraq while porking up spending in the USA to get Representative's votes. The President vows to veto and fight.

But what is the driveby media's focus this Sunday?

Same as it always is: Get Bush!

These navel gazers would rather devote a whole show to the nontroversy of the Attorney General legally replacing US Attorneys only because the democrat party told them to make a "crisis" out of it.

Once again, I challenge the credentials and professionalism of today's television media journalists. You Sirs are clowns! You are political hacks pretending to be Fourth Estate paragons!

[Mo1]

Fox is replaying Major Garretts news report of Gore's appearance on the hill

I am ROFL

[Right_in_Virginia]

"For Vice President and Oscar winner, Al Gore..."

ROFL

[Mo1]

BTW ... did you know that Gore's new grandson is named .... drum-roll please .... Oscar

[rodguy911]

Yeah I know the choices are somewhat lacking(that's probably why I am watching Wild Cindy on espn2,nothing phony about her,there is just something about a gal who can fight a marlin and then jump in the water with him afterward)

[Bahbah]

Because I need a smile.
