The Weekend Talk Show Preview Thread is up

It will also be cross posted (sometime soon... maybe) to my blog at

http://wizards.townhall.com/

Here's a sample of  my usually witty commentary...

... The real meat of this weekends shows is the complete control of all the levers of government by the Dhimmicrats.  They are in charge and Nazi Pelosi, The Nation's Mother In Law, along with Dingy Harry, can dictate the terms to McChimpy Bushitler.  There's a new politburo in town and he better not step out of line or he's toast!

Add to that the huge scandal that will bring down... who was it this time?  Oh yeah!  That sniveling weasel the attorney general.  How dare he know about a legal act on the part of those nasty people in the White House?  There must be a conspiracy and a cover up somewhere that they can uncover, evidence to the contrary is not to be allowed to get in the way.

And of course there's the humiliation of those dumb British types.  That of course is all Bush's fault.  All the more reason to trash McChimpy Bushitler and his poodle, Blair.  Boy that Ahmadasahatter guy is really a gold mine for the DBM.  Hours and hours of Bush bashing fun can be expected.  He must be built up and praised for his glorious act of defiance against the evil that is America. ...

Good evening, my friend.

Impressive work as always. Going back to read up, but I want to point out that Snuffalupagus has a real adult lined up, Jon Kyl.

Yeah, but I think it's because Jon is "coming around" on immigration reform.

I will tell you why Huckabee is on. They want him to comment on his statement last week that if "candidates" (meaning Guiliani) don't have to answer for their marital history then Republicans owe an apology to Bill Clinton.

Of course, how could CBS resist a two-fer: bashing Guiliani (by a conservative) AND rehabilitating Bill CLinton. Of course, Huckabee's premise is 100% wrong, since as far as I know Clinton was not impeached for his sexual behavior, but for LYING.

I think Huckabee has made a big error here. I imagine it is because some in the Southern Baptist Church are making anti-Guiliani noise and citing his divorces.

As I said, I am not supporting anyone, but I think that most Americans aren't very comfortable with attacks on someone's personal life unless it involves actual criminal behavior. Clinton didn't seem to be hurt one bit (of course he has no shame, so maybe that's why).

I wonder what the spin will be for Pelosi. Can't wait to hear it.

As far as I know, Giuliani has never been accused of raping anyone. And Clinton has not stayed in his marriage because of his high regard for the institution. Huckabee sounds silly.

I wonder if Chris Wallace will use up Newt’s time to bash Pelosi or the Dems regarding the war supplemental by asking him about his “faux pas” regarding the English language..and “the ghetto”???

The spin for Pelosi is the GWB has done such a terrible job of international relations, someone has to take over, the Constitution be damned.

Nevermind that I never voted for Nazi Pelosi and wouldn’t even under threat of torture.

I heard that. Now Logan must be invoked. Forget this shadow or "alternative" government nonsense. It's a coup that happened here.

Yes, and it must not be allowed. Surely someone in the Administration realizes this.

I didn't include this article in any of the shows since Nancy isn't on this week, but I linked to it in my discussion of the Journal Editorial Report where I mentioned the Logan Act.

Illegal Diplomacy
Did Nancy Pelosi commit a felony when she went to Syria?

a couple of excerpts (is that OK from Opinion Journal?)

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi may well have committed a felony in traveling to Damascus this week, against the wishes of the president, to communicate on foreign-policy issues with Syrian President Bashar Assad. The administration isn't going to want to touch this political hot potato, nor should it become a partisan issue. Maybe special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald, whose aggressive prosecution of Lewis Libby establishes his independence from White House influence, should be called back.

<snip> 

The Supreme Court has spoken clearly on this aspect of the separation of powers. In Marbury v. Madison, Chief Justice John Marshall used the president's authority over the Department of State as an illustration of those "important political powers" that, "being entrusted to the executive, the decision of the executive is conclusive." And in the landmark 1936 Curtiss-Wright case, the Supreme Court reaffirmed: "Into the field of negotiation the Senate cannot intrude, and Congress itself is powerless to invade it."

Ms. Pelosi and her Congressional entourage spoke to President Assad on various issues, among other things saying, "We came in friendship, hope, and determined that the road to Damascus is a road to peace." She is certainly not the first member of Congress--of either party--to engage in this sort of behavior, but her position as a national leader, the wartime circumstances, the opposition to the trip from the White House, and the character of the regime she has chosen to approach make her behavior particularly inappropriate.

The author is Robert F. Turner.  Here's his background as listed at the end of the article: 

Mr. Turner was acting assistant secretary of state for legislative affairs in 1984-85 and is a former chairman of the ABA standing committee on law and national security.

Pretty good credentials, as far as I'm concernced. 

Nancy, you got some splainin to do.
