It seems like she has a coughing spell every time see appears on FNS.

She's had a cough for years now...I remember once Brit saying--I see Mara has her cough drops. What's up with that?

[STARWISE]

He’s a lethal weapon ...

Speaking of weaponry (HRC thinks she’s got a topnotch campaign
tool in her ex-pres escort), this jibberish is priceless.

Clinton says wife’s schedules out soon (Archives issue)

Can’t you just hear him drawling these ramblings in your mind’s ear? LOL

The more I think about this dangerous duo, the harder time I’m having picturing that his pathological narcissism could tolerate her achieving the same standing as prez and in the world that he has.

I can easily see him very subtly sabotaging her run somehow. Imagine: the newfound wealth that now greases his prestigious, carefree, bimbo-loving, princely, egomaniacal lifestyle that would suddenly end and be under 24/7 scrutiny and a platinum leash. I’m having difficulty picturing him giving up his golden existence.

I often wrap fish in foil after covering ...

I thought the only proper fish wrap to use was the New York Times.

What do you expect, the entire Dem Establishment is behind the clintons. The Establishment doesn’t want to lose to an uppity Black Man.

You know, you bring up Democrats and mantras. It reminds me of an op-ed I wrote back for the 2004 elections.

"Nina not bad for a leftie"

It would help if she would dye her roots a little more often.

[Bahbah]

the harder time I’m having picturing that his pathological narcissism could tolerate her achieving the same standing as prez and in the world that he has.

I have had the same thought.

[advertising guy]

get this then............Our Arizona Republic( a pos newspaper) has two Black female reporters.They told me they “act” as if interested in Hillary but since voting is private,they are voting Osloppymama

I’ve heard that from several this year

[bray]

DNCNN should have to redo the debate with Republican questioners and no UTube garbage. Let the RNC run the thing.

Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters

[Miss Didi]

Any mention of Ms. Oprah?



RUSH: Did you see Hillary? No sooner does Barack Obama announce that The Oprah is going to hit the campaign trail than Barbra Streisand announces she's going to go out for Hillary. Mrs. Clinton, I know you know Barbra Streisand. I know she's actually not a friend of yours. You kicked her out of the White House once when she was in there when you were gone. Remember that? Barbra Streisand was in the White House overnight in the Lincoln Bedroom when Hillary was out on some junket somewhere. But it's time to bury the hatchet on that because now Barbra Streisand is back as an endorser.

Well, she may be a friend of yours, Mrs. Clinton, but she's no The Oprah. In fact, ladies and gentlemen, I have a poll here, the latest poll of Democrats since Oprah and Streisand were announced. It's an overnight flash poll. Check these numbers. Question: "Who would you rather have lunch with, Oprah or Barbra Streisand?" Answer: Oprah 80%, Streisand 20%. Next question in the poll: "Who seems friendlier and nicer to you, Oprah or Streisand?" It's Oprah 80-to-20 again. "Whose book recommendation would you read, Oprah's or Barbra Streisand?" Oprah 94%, Streisand 6%. "Whose political endorsement would you more likely follow?" Oprah, 60%, Streisand 10%. The other 30% laughed too long to offer an opinion.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: You know, yesterday on the Drudge Report, these two headlines consecutively listed are just a riot: "Clinton Relying on Elderly Women to Help Her Win Iowa." "Streisand Endorses." (laughter)

[Alas Babylon!]

Cool! I remember during Desert Shield/Storm we couldn’t have all that banned stuff there. So we just ensured we brought the weber grill with us on the C-5 from Ramstein AB, Germany. We had a large case of brats, pork, and Bitberger Pils in the unheated cargo area towards the back.

We cooked and drank them right on the ramp at King Kalhid AB (I believe it was that base). I think it was a nice smell to add to the Holy Kingdom!

[jmyrlefuller]

By the way, thank you for filling in what happened on the rest of FTN for me. Not that there was much to cover.

[Bahbah]

Huckabee is not doing well with these “give things to illegal immigrants” questions.

He wants states to rely on the Feds to determine what kind of identification will be needed to vote???

I simply cannot follow him on this.

[STARWISE]

Well, not knowing what that says about me: he has succeeded in becoming a legend in my mind as a political tactician.

++++

All:

Just hearing HRC saying on MTP how grateful she is to law enforcement in the campaign office kerfuffle.

Anyone who knows about her disdain for those in the military
or law enforcement uniform all her years in the WH KNOWS full well those words are lies, and calculated to appear as if she’s a compassionate .. a real normal Mommy-type person. Lies .. all lies.

[snugs]

I wonder if you can get pork in Israel probably because there is a Christian community there.

[CedarDave]

Regarding Rep. Chris Van Hollen:

A person I know who works in forensic psych told me years ago that I should beware any person who constantly touches me. He said they were trying to disarm and manipulate me,,like a sociopath. I have often found that to be true with men. Women are natural born touchers but a touching man is seeking power and manipulation.

Chris Wallace on Fox News Channel just said that Van Hollen was constantly touching Rove during the interview and Rove was getting angry with Van Hollen.

[jmyrlefuller]

I don’t think Huckabee could follow himself on what he supports. We pretty much have determined he is adamantly pro amnesty but he’s spinning it like he’s a moderate and it’s just not working.

[NautiNurse]

Any mention of Mrs. Clinton getting booed in Iowa???

Not a peep about Clinton booed at Iowa forum during today's discussions.

[Miss Didi]

The more I think about this dangerous duo, the harder time I’m having picturing that his pathological narcissism could tolerate her achieving the same standing as prez and in the world that he has.

I believe Bubba's "Operation Sabotage" is in full swing.



Clinton: Pathology or Sabotage?

[norwaypinesavage]

"Will Fred Smith of FedEx say anything that I will be interested in hearing on FNS?"

I don't know. I turned it off and came here when he went on the air.
