CNN's Begala using 'CrossFire' as a paid TV commercial of the DNC! Shameful!

NOVAK: Paul, Pat Buchanan is one of the most skilled television people I know. He can handle any job. Can you imagine ABC putting him as the anchor of "This Week" on Sunday as they have a left wing ideologue such as George Stephanopoulos?

What a bunch of bull$hit Begala, Carville and that whole show Crossfire is. I can't believe that CNN thinks it gains any credibility with paid democratic politicos spouting off - but I guess CNN doesn't want credibility!

Begala was probably trying to take some of the heat off of Ted Turner for his idiotic remarks about Israel being terrorists...that's the only logical explanation I can think of. But I guess CNN just wants to keep pushing its liberal agenda...

Novak argues the issues. Team Carvala rant about the Republicans and praise willy-jeff... no matter what the issue is. Half hour was hard enough to watch, an hour is way to much to ask of anyone!

Interesting that two Clinton kneepadders would use "Suck Up" as part of their book title.

Why do you watch CNN? What has anyone ever learned from watching Paul Begala or James Carville other than obtaining reaffirmation that the two are schills?

I don't watch CNN now that I've got FOX. When CNN was my only 24 hour news station I only watched if there was at least one bona fide conservative on the program.

Roger Ailes isnt a right wing crackpot. A right wing crackpot would make a religion of not allowing Geraldos or Van Sustrens to pollute his channel. He is just right wing with good business sense.

You nailed it - good business sense - but good political sense, too. Greta has become much more conservative since she's been on FOX. I could not stand watching her on CNN, but she's been very good on the 'terror' issues (including profiling), the Chandra and Smart cases, etc. While I am sure I still disagree with her about quite a few things, she's much better than I expected, and in some ways is more conservative than O'Reilly.

The correct reply to Begala is that the viewers determine which network has the better 'slant', and ole Rog is killing them. LOL. I love it.

I seriously doubt that Crossfire's producers would let anyone not left of center go on the show and show up Begala or Carville. It seems their revamping of the show was meant to be a one sided diatribe from the beginning. No wonder the ratings are terrible (who cares?)

I've been saying this ever since Campaign Finance Reform became an issue. Begala and Carville on CNN, and now Stephanopoulis on ABC, while shutting down all criticism 60 days prior to an election, is equivalent to giving the DNC free airtime every day and twice on Sundays.
