wall ass putting words in Mulvaney’s mouth. Still, Mulvaney comes off as a bit over his head. Now wall ass has butty juice. It’s all smiles and softballs.
Ahhhhh......that’s so sweet (blush).
Butt-a-gigidy...Isn't he that queer, baby-killing "moderate" RAT?
I watched her Norfolk VA performance on C-SPAN. She was asked one of those generic softball questions by some shill in the audiene, something like what was the one thing that most impacted your life.
First she paced up and down the stage rubbing her nose. She said "besides marrying George?" or whoever, forgot the name, she was pointing to her husband. The audience booed. They dislike marriage I guess. Then she caved and said, it was the thing I talked about, referring to her previous jabber about how she was 19 and married to a different guy but decided to go back to school instead of becoming a housewife or something like that. It wasn't really an answer to the question because it wasn't a "one thing" And she kept staring and pointing at the questioner even as she didn't answer the questioner. It was creepy..
Then she morphed from that anecdoatal drivel into her memorized wrap up speech which was this: other politicians told her that she should not get wonky with her audiences. They said that was too hard for people to understand. Warren then relates how it was too hard for abolitionists, suffragettes, civil rights workers, "LGBT asterisk" advocating for "real marriage". And thus it isn't really too hard for people to understand her leftist wonk talking points? No, people know exactly what that is: leftist dogma.
In other words a bunch of progressive crap that has nothing to do with her style as a boring progressive wonk who nobody relates to (except 22 year old female college students). It's ok to rub your nose and spout liberal talking points when you have a friendly audience. But in a national debate she has to answer the questions with an answer that is actually related to the question. She has to relate to the working class Trump voters. She can do neither.
Unfortunately Mick twisted the transcript in a reply to questions asked him to suggest that there was a quid pro quo with the Ukraine potus and worse yet that it happened all the time.
Not how the transcript of the actual call read at all.
He’s a moron.
I watch the Rush Limbaugh show (Dittocam version) each afternoon once it is posted to Youtube. I’ve already told you this I know, but others might want to try. I do a lot of work on the computer in the afternoon/evening, so it’s great to listen. The video posters will cut out all the commericals, traffic reports, news, etc., and just play Rush. I can fast forward thru the ads on Lifelock, Norton VPN and Simply Safe (and Bolen Branch).
BTW, I am a Rush 24/7 paid member, so don’t think I’m stealing... He really needs to cut all the extra stuff out of his website videos.
Once that’s done, I will watch The Five on Youtube while I eat supper.
I always fast forward through Whine Williams or Donna Brazillenut.
I second Liz! You’re the BEST!
HEADS UP!
CSPAN will reair PDJT’s Dallas rally today at 4:30 PM ET.
Tomorrow night, Hannity will have an interview with POTUS on FNC.
Ah yes, young Master Beta.
You can't be in radio without selling your soul to spots.Sponsors are always first,never second. We just don't realize it. That's why Rush will always tend to slide in a commercial whenever or wherever. It's what we are taught.
Anyone in talk radio is told more or less "we don't care what you do just get all the spots in."
In today's market with the internet sucking up more and more content it's even worse.
I can only imagine the pressure on the top talkers to slide in as many spots as possible. If you want to see how intense it can get listen to wiod 610 am in Miami the morning show with Jimmy Cefalo former dolphin football player and beloved in South Fla. No one combines lots of spots with loads of info for the South Fla. market as well as Cefalo. This guy is the best of the best.
For sure. FR Liz is the best and it should have been obvious even to the most casual reader that I was not making any reference to her.There are lots of ladies named or nick-named “Liz”...

Interesting take here on Russian/Putins influence in the mid east.
You make a very interesting point that I've observed too. Although it's all pretty obvious now the MSM doesn't even hide it's bias, the weekly network entertainment shows push the narrative in a more subtle way -- although not so subtle any more.
The shows have a way on injecting bias into the opinions and actions of the characters, and the overall story line of the episodes. This past week in addition to the White Supremacy stuff, there was a very pro-abortion episode of Law & Order SUV. The pro-life people were cast to look like radical kooks.
Frankly with all the bombardment of bias in both news and and entertainment, I'm surprised our side is still able to compete in elections. We're all radical kooks too don't you know

I saw a short clip of Pelosi re the Doral issue. She was almost blue in the face yelling that Trump was “not going to be allowed to hold the G7 at his facility. She would withhold any funding.”
I think it was a mistake for the Trump team and Mulvaney to even consider this and bring it up to the rabid press.
Mulvaney also did muddy the waters with his statement re withholding funds. He talks a mile a minute and just did not explain this clearly. It was easy to twist his statements into something else.
I’ve enjoyed Cefalo on WIOD for a week or 2 every August. He once spoke of retiring, iirc, getting involved with wine making. We missed this August.....glad to her he’s still going strong. Did I understand correctly ?....i thought I heard him mentioning a pending retirement 2 or 3 August’s ago.
OH HN!!!!
I saw that Special Victims’ Unit show and it was do damn obvious their intent.
First, I’ve always said, forgive me please yon readers, but abortion will NEVER, not ever, be abolished. I do not wish to argue that it should be and for sure there might be time limits and such.
But what did I say?
The libs will show one young adolescent female impregnated by her father or stepfather. Then said young female will be forced, after the pain and suffering, to bear that credtin’s child.
Which is exactly, hell I could have written the script, what happened on the SVU program aired 10/17/19.
The adolescent character was 13 years old. She was impregnated by her stepfather and ran away from home to get an abortion.
Her mother was an idiot and with her stepfather were some kind of religious fanactics.
so you got these characters all fighting to keep that child from aborting her unborn baby, tears, hysterics.
What are the odds of this scenario? The girl’s mother, the nut job, kept arguing that the unborn baby was her grandchild and should not be murdered in her daughter’s womb.
The religious people were depicted as crazy loony nut jobs. The SVU had to take it to court to get the child an abortion, something about difference states and different laws...one state demanded parents of the impregnated underaged give permission while the other said it was the adolescent’s decision.
Serious.
Of all the abortion scenarios they come up with a plot line featuring a nut job mother who demands her young daughter bear her creep turd husband’s baby that the unborn not be murdered.
HN, that story was created just to show what banning abortion is going to come to.
If the libs know nothing, it’s how to use fiction and drama to make the common sense among us look extremely dumb.
Hmmmmmm....
