Chris Wallace blew a good opportunity. Feinstein, remarking on the great accomplishments of the Democratic Congress, mentioned ethics. Wallace should have asked her about her ethical dilemma, funnelling contracts to her rich husband and his buddies. But, why put politicians on the spot?

I guarantee you that if you confronted Wallace about this he would give you a blank stare and tell you he didn't have any idea what you were talking about.  And he wouldn't be lying.  He has admitted numerous times in the past that he doesn't know anything about current events that his staff doesn't brief him on and I'll bet you anything that his staff hasn't ever mentioned (or looked into) DiFi's "little ethics problem." 

The identities, background and politicial affiliations of all of the people involved with these shows should be immediately available for review, by law, so that people can be informed about the institutional bias and downright bigotry of the dinosaur media.  After all, they are profiting from the public airwaves and are licensed and required to provide information in the public interest.

MTP is doing a Hillary for President ad....

I wonder if we (with the help of competent lawyers, such as we know we have here from time to time) can make the case that this was an illegal "contribution in kind" to the Clinton campaign?

The MSM has to maintain the fiction that there are some other serious challengers

And they have chosen Mike Bloomberg????

I'm not even pretending to keep up with the thread today (or this week), given what else is going on (plus RG just let me know I'm on duty today, so I've gone back to post #1 to start doing the honors) but this post has me ROFLOL.

Thank you.

Apart from the political junkies I doubt the ordinary folkes are that interested in the article and I suspect the only people that probably watch Cspan are political junkies on both sides.

It's our job (the new media) to catch these things and explain it to the "great unwashed" so that they don't make their decisions in the intellectual vacuum created by the DBMs lies.  That's not a snarky comment, that's really how I see what it is we are doing.  We've got to get better at it than we are, though we've already had a major impact on the entire system (witness DiFi and Trent ganging up to try to silence us) but this here is the beginning of the next 100 years of political discourse and we're a big part of it (if we can just avoid fratricide).

We disagree with you Bray, we don’t hate you. At least I hope that’s what everyone’s position is.

I do admire your tenacity, even though I think you’re wrong.

It’s so good to see that conservatives can discuss the biggest issue of the day and not resort to thuggish namecalling./s

Who cares if people don’t like me, they resort to those thug tactics since they cannot answer how you going to replace the workers after they are deported. They have no answer so they attack you personally. It’s the oldest tactic in the book.

Bray’s intellectual dishonesty, his penchant for polluting fair debate with false choices and his eagerness to resort to the name calling {which he then whines about when he’s the recipient, thereof} make him a fair and inviting target.

But when, after advocating the promulgation of human suffering and the effective dissolution of our borders and, thus, our national sovereignty {which many have died for} he ends each reply with a sanctimonious prayer request, he establishes a whole new class of hypocrite, a class inhabited only by bray.

Thanks Phsstpok , CDB. My pleasure and I am flattered. I don't have a blog & feel free to use anything I write or link (I always link when I can), with or without attribution. I am just sharing things which interests me & feel others would too when they come across.

My work is challenging as well as rewarding. So, when my bosses think I exceeded their expectation, they reward me, this time they gave me 4 days off. So I am @ my Grandpa's to practice horse-riding, which I enjoy very much.

Have a nice week & see you all next sunday.

You make my point of thuggish behavior far better than I ever could. You have no answers so you have to shut down any dissent from exposing your empty dogma. You fear that more than one will have the courage to stand up to your mob.

Hypocrisy? Perhaps you should stop eating since all those evil farmers are exploiting your poor Mexican proletariet. Course you are going to help them by throwing them back to their Turd World dirt farms. If you are so concerned about hypocrisy you may want to avoid mirrors for a while.

We can go at one another forever. However,it's a lot harder to see the other guys point of view and then try and deal with one another in a more adult manner.

In-fighting is a real negative to me since it reminds me all too much of how the dem/rats solve all their arguments. Especially when we have them pinned to the ground. They come up complaining and cry-babyin instead of making intellectual arguments which is really more FR style. Just my opinion.

Don’t include me in your lecture. I only responded after the 10th attack. Perhaps you should clean up your little friend.

anyone notice trent lott AND diane feinstein both said that the voters against the I bill ‘don’t understand it’
so did gutteriez,also the consensus that the talk show hosts didn’t read it.?? does that show what they think of the voter and of themselves? sessions was the only one who said that he will read the bill to the people so they know just what is in it, the others just want it passed because they know best. i sincerely hope this doesn’t pass. also, in the NYX the small town (midland tx) where supposedly bush got his caring for the illegals is now over run just like many of the states.

No complaining, no crybabyin’ here, rodguy. My only regret is that I have but one keyboard to give to the cause!
