Porkbusters is a lot more popular across party lines than you might think.
Do you mean the polite Dan Quale who did not challenge the incorrect spelling on one of the cards given to him by the teachers to use for a spelling bee photo op? The DBM so seldom put that part of the story in that very few people know about it.
Check this out re: Iran and Wes Clark, through the Vote Vets Clinton Anti-War tentacle, attacking Rudy re: draft
Yep. Thanks k.
“Michelle Malkin exceeded O’Reilly in ratings on his own show...”
She was fantastic! She ripped that Black attorney a new one! Go Michelle!
I SWEAR he uses FR for part of his show prep sometimes! LOL
You bet, Sleuthie. All the great analysis, terrific posts, and fantastic URLs make this thread "one-stop shopping" for everyone interested in the Sunday Talk Shows.

Very funny, unfortunately it is also ... over the line. "nappy headed" is and always has been used as a racist slur by those who are of that persuasion. I know you didn't mean it that way, but it's one of those things that just has to be avoided, even as part of a joke. That's even more true now as the psychos have proven that they can "bring down" major media types by hyping any slip that they make. Media Matters and the rest of the Soros inquisition are out to get folks like us and we have to be extremely careful not to give them ammunition.
But it is funny.
There are things that we shouldn't do or say because they are offensive to people who we don't mean to offend. yes that's PC, but it's also being considerate of others. My grandparents (including my namesake, who died before I was born who was also the sheriff of Neshoba County Mississippi for one term in the depression and got kicked out because he wouldn't tolerate the Klan) wouldn't have approved. My other grandfather, a BIA agent, would use the phrase (which my mom also used) "you smell like an Indian" when I'd come back from scouting trips after standing around a camp fire. That wasn't an insult in any way, shape or form. It was the simple truth from his experience. He would also catch me up by the hair if he thought for an instant that I was being condescending or insulting to anyone from The Nations. My grandmothers would both just have looked disapprovingly at me, which would have been far more devastating. That's what I'm drawing on, not the current doctrine of political correctness.
The Don * bit is hilarious, however.
OMG - I agree with you on this. I go to a Chinese restaurant in my neighborhhod, and seemingly every few weeks there’s new help there. They also send MASSIVE amounts of $$$ back to China (Western Union). I live near Carnegie-Mellon U, and they do some work for the DoD. There’s also a high amount of high tech stuff done here and I assume all of these “waiters” are doing more than just serving Fried Dumplings. I honestly don’t understand what’s wrong with the President. The Chinese showed him what they were up to within a few months of his inaugural, and yet we are flooded with these Chinese. Something doesn’t smell right.
I had to LMAO today with Chris Wallace on FOX when Al Sharpton had the nerve to complain about McCain/Feingold and how unfair it is (now).. guess he doesn’t realize this is the same rocky road we are headed down on Free Speech thanks to him and Jesse and their railing against Imus and getting him fired.
~LOL~ one of my favorites, too....
And the libs happily call Joe McCarthy a “witch hunter.”
All you guys must go listen to this Shout Out to the soldier broadcast. So far, so good. Music interpersed with President’s speeches, soldiers comments from WWII to today.

... he should be purged from Fox News and replaced by Michelle Malkin!!!
IIRC, Mr. Sharpton has a judgement against him, but has not paid. One old article, perhaps in the NYPost, said that Sharpton has his finances arranged in such a way that he doesn't own anything, not even his very expensive suits. He is smart, though, he really rolled over Wallace, who was not prepared. The FoxNews staff could have come up with a more inflammatory statement by Sharpton concerning the Duke case.
I am disgusted with the number of times Chris Wallace said REVEREND Sharpton, especially since he will not put the words President and Bush together more than once in an entire interview or discussion.
Someone like George Soros may just write them a check.
