Great Picture!

First I though it was J.R. Ewing (Larry Hagman)

Go Fred, go.....

No one knows how to react to clear and honest talk from a politician.

I try to apply a Heinleinian 'axiom'.

The greater the zeal to hold public office, the more likely the candidate is mentally unfit to hold it, regardless of apparent qualifications

Cases in point are abundant in the House & Senate...and in the Clinton Crime Family

Ewwww Jill Lawrence - failed reporter - has a striking resemblance to very young Helen Thomas.

Similar temperment it would seem.

Is there a new cloned variety of angry white woman emerging from the liberal laboratories?

See, this is what I don't understand. The flow of information is no longer uni-directional. There are more fact checkers out there than ever before. The quality control of the drive-by-media practitioners has never been high. Now the quality checkers are swarming around the Jills of this world, and the putrid product they produce looks less and less appetizing the longer it's examined. They claim to have "fact checkers" and, in fact, disdain the blogosphere for not having them. So why do the "fact checkers" (the MSM QC people) let this sort of junk get published? The answer is simple, really, the fact checkers are as clueless as the Jills of the world. The sort of idiocy that Jill wrote would strike a reasonable person as highly suspect and worth checking out. But to the sort of people who "fact check" this trash, given their ideological homogeneity, this sort of thing is, to their mind, "natural," coming from a Conservative. To them, conservatism is uncharted territory and they have no feel for what real conservatives say or do.

There is good in this. The fact that the leftstream media are starting to lie about Fred and distort his message suggests that they have reason to believe that their previous tactic of ignoring him completely, isn’t working.

“Bill Clinton’s “fire in the belly” ended up on Monica’s dress.”

You really had to go there didn’t you? I now have to shower to wash off the stench. :)

Did you see her "Jill Lawrence page"?

What exactly did you see, and what did you want to see?

I always though Mike Huckabee looked like the disgraced President Charles Logan on the series “24.” Am I the only one that sees the physical resemblance?

“My guess .. the journalist is a Hillary supporter.”

Hillary Lapdog.

As in ‘head in her lap’.

I saw a page from the paper but nothing with her name. However, after that, I came back to the thread and saw her picture posted and that's all I needed or wanted to see.

Great post, a.
