Awards aren’t up yet for last week. Post them directly to this thread, please, when you get them!
Right now on C-Span, Maj. Gen. Rick Lynch from Baghdad.
So on Meet The Press, the media will interview themselves and cut out the middle-man. How convenient. At least it provides all the regular suspects a chance to go back to the districts or states that elected them and see if they can remember how to get around town.
Talk about some softball questions on today’s MTP!
I hope Feingold and Newt are on together. That could actually be good.
He is doing GREAT!
“Let’s be realistic. The reality is that every successful operation against insurgenies took 9 years. NINE YEARS.”
EXCELLENT!
Let me guess
Arlen Spector will lead the charge for impeaching Bush’s SC justices.
As usual, Wallace chose guests who are making attacks to get on sunday shows.
Pathetic. Gingrich called Republican candidates - bunch of pigmies. He 's angry that except FOX, MSM ignores him.
Sen. Russ Feingold? - We say Bring it on!.
Ah! Another balanced lineup!
Yeah, thats the guy.
I swear someone has pictures that he doesn’t want seen.
With this line-up many will lurk on FR and not watch.
I keep thinking the guests will improve with some real balance.
Silly me.
Frankly, anita, Specter has been doing things for a while now that cause me to question his mental balance.
In the past he has managed to find at least a cover of rationality for his attacks on the President and on conservatives, but this nonsense about going through the confirmation testimony is off the rails. He can read legal opinions. He knows that both Roberts and Alito have been exactly the kinds of jurists they said they would be, not driven by ideology, but by the law and the Constitution.
So is there something about that that he finds objectionable.
Oh wow is Meet the Insane a complete waste of time today.
Summer doldrums. Wonder what they are going to do for guests when Congress goes on it’s 6 weeks vacation starting next week.
Eeevil!Big wet sloppy kiss! Great to see you here.
Yes! The Constitution!
Amazingly, the callers are asking reasonable questions and General Lynch is giving sterling answers.
