Great stuff will you keep us apprised as this thing moves along,you obviously have some really good sources.

[Laverne]

I watched the replay of FNS last evening; the biggest absolute slapdown by Brit to Wallace I have ever seen. Even bigger than the old Brit to Juan slapdowns. When Brit told Wallace it is “our responsibility as journalists” to be clear, you could really see the anger in Brit about how Wallace was spinning for McCain. Brit was NOT a happy camper with Wallace.

I just hope Rush is reading all this, eventually if he can document it, I think Rush would go with something like this. I really don’t expect to read much about it in the DBM. They only go after us and ignore everything else.

[rodguy911]

What about all the FBI files she has on toooo many people?

One must always ask what pertinent piece of information is the MSM omitting?

%%%%

The omission of any graphics about abortion is a very good example. Not even on the Channels devoted to health issues can anything pertaining to abortion be seen. Do you remember the furor when Drudge showed the photo of a baby’s hand on a doctor’s finger while the doc was doing intrauterine surgery. That beautiful photo was a breakthrough of the truth which caused NARAL + Planned Parenthood to go apoplectic.

What is chosen to be shown and what is omitted is the greatest power that Big Media has. Fox news has joined Big Media and I hope the dropping viewer numbers reflect their decision to move more to the left.

Thanks for the link. Another example of hiding the news. We were told of every word and action of Ms Albright, virtually nothing about Secretary Rice. I wonder how many times a Secretary of State has attended the Davos meeting? and how many times given a SRO speech?

[Beagle8U]

“If the alternative is learning to speak Spanish and almost having to adopt an hispanic family would they still not vote for Mitt or Rudy? Just askin’”

No. No more than the NRTL would vote for PP. It just ain’t happening.

[Beagle8U]

“The folks in more absolutist groups, like some of those in GOA, are trending towards Ron Paul, of all things.”

Both the NRA and the GOA like Huckabee also.

[Phsstpok]

Both the NRA and the GOA like Huckabee also.

Not the NRA folks from Arkansas and the surrounding states. They know him too well and don't trust him.

And the pardons issue really bothers folks from this area big time. We remember the games he played, and the rapes and murders that happened because of them, all due to the Huckster's "compassion" for the criminals and lack of concern for the victims, past or future.

[KansasGirl]

Good point, or something for LIB LOSERS to be jealous.

[Miss Didi]

Sorry to have missed the thread. For those who weren't tuned in to Rush on Friday:



Sly Stallone Rings Rush on Rambo

Thanks for the links, Chgogal, that was a masterful address. I just wish she had taken a scythe through Foggy Bottom and culled about half of the parasites therein.

The Media never tells the whole truth, commission by omission is their stock-in-trade. I did find the following about Maddie Notsobright ^:

PARIS: Secretary of State Madeleine Albright's personal efforts staved off failure at least temporarily in the Kosovo peace talks last month at Rambouillet, France, but her intensive, often improvised, diplomacy raised concerns that her entry into the talks clouded the prospects for settling the civil war between Serbs and ethnic Albanians when the two sides reconvene on March 15, according to officials in Europe and the United States.

"Her energy was impressive, but her performance injected new uncertainties into the situation and sowed doubts about the seriousness of U.S. diplomacy," said an American ambassador in Europe.

Like other diplomatic practitioners, he considered her Rambouillet performance to fit a pattern of what he said was the Clinton administration's propensity for downgrading U.S. objectives in a foreign-policy crisis and settling for any result offering the appearance of success or at least forestalling a media verdict of failure.

Robert Zoellick, a conservative U.S. strategist, said that Mrs. Albright "seemed to concentrate so hard on tactics that she lost sight of U.S. strategic goals, and even her tactics seemed imperfectly adapted."

Albright and Clinton never had any US strategic goals -- only self-interested positioning.

Whenever I think of Albright I am reminded of the English woman who died about 10 years ago in her eighties, who had been a secretary at MI5 (or another British Agency) and had been giving secrets to the USSR all during her working life. Her obituary write-ups included the statement that she had done it because she did not think it was “fair” to have only one superpower in the world.

I truly believe that Maddy sees the world the same way. The Clintons only see personal power as an objective. Nothing ideological motivates them. Well, she is a communist, so I guess he is the one with no ideology.

[PerConPat]

...you could really see the anger in Brit...

Absolutely, that was quite a stare. The disgust was palpable.

[Chgogal]

Here is a link from the Fox Business Channel. It is an interview between Albright and Cavuto. Cavuto, the mild, lays into her like you would not believe. This is a must watch. You will have to put the name Albright in the search box and click to find the videos. There are two sections. It gets very good a few minutes into the first sections. It is wonderful! Chgogal’s rating - 5 Stars!!!!

[PGalt]

Thanks very much for the ping and link. I just watched parts 1 & 2 Cavuto Albright. Hooray Neil Cavuto!

[Chgogal]

I really think you will like these links. I should have pinged you earlier. Sorry. Condi Rice did us proud. And if you are a Jay Nordlinger fan you will enjoy his comments too.

[StarCMC]

Oh my GOSH!

What a GREAT find! Thanks for the heads up -- I linked it in my blog! I have loved Cavuto ever since he did a rant about the French declining to stand with us in OIF back in 2003.

[Chgogal]

I really think you will like these two links too. Condi made an absolutely wonderful speech.
