THE folks at Msnbc are talking to former Republican presidential candidate and former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Alan Keyes about hosting a 10 p.m. show up against Fox News' new hire, Greta Van Susteren. Meanwhile, Van Susteren, a lawyer before her O.J. Simpson commentary turned her into a CNN star, reportedly has penned an eight-page memo detailing CNN's demerits. She plans to keep the document secret as long as CNN doesn't try to paint her as an ungrateful traitor.

...yet they refuse to discuss what they do that is so offensive to others...

What, that he speaks clearly with regards to abortion, homosexuality, constitutional issues, and the moral cesspool that has become our nation? He discusses it. I'm willing to try. Please cite top-down examples of gop leadership regarding any of the above. That is, from mouth of GW. To my knowledge, there is none, but I'm willing to be corrected.

..."Now if that doesn't say that Gore is better than Bush at making his point then nothing does!"...it certainly doesn't say that Gore is a better person than Bush, nor more handsomer, or taller, or wittier....or even that Gore would make his point more truthfully, or in a more truthful manner.

Check your facts man, some of us do save threads that get nuked, you know...

What I stated is that Keyes threads that none of your crowd post to are generally relatively free of flaming at the President or anyone else. If you have an exception, please post away

[seattlesue]

He said he would join other Republicans to unite behind Bush at the party’s convention in Philadelphia next week."

This is saying Keyes would support Bush, but wanted to make certain the pro-life plank remained in the party platform. If find his conviction admirable.

[EternalVigilance]

Uhmm...sir...I was the floor manager in Philly for Dr. Keyes...in fact, he did release his delegates.

Your credibility as a FReeper is going to take a terrible beating if you all keep this up.

[carenot]

All I know of is rdf and Clinton's a liar, are there more?

[Torie]

Actually I am on Keyes' payroll (at least when I am not Torie Clarke working for the pentagon (or as Arator says pentagram) as some believe). I just take a more subtle tack. Cheers.

[nopardons]

Unfortunately, this what the Keyes supporters ad fringers just don't get at all. They, after all, have their " principles" . If that means that their chosen candidate NEVER gets elected to ANYTHING, it doesn't matter. Just so long as they can keep claiming " political " purity ; winning means NOTHING !

Show them a glass containing some liquid, and it is EMPTY ; 1/2 full or 1/2 empty doesn't even register. : - )

[Howlin]

Now, I will send money for that one.

BTW, LOVE the email address.

[rwfromkansas]

hmmm

[Benighted]

This seems quite the spectacle. Bush's name is nowhere to be found in the article, so what's the attraction? (Is it always like this around here?)

Keyes is irrelevant...and, still, they're here talking about him.
Keyes lost their support long ago...and, still, they're here talking about him.
Keyes couldn't get elected as dog catcher...and, still, they're here talking about him.
Keyes said something that offended them two years ago...and, still, they're here talking about him.
Keyes is a self-promoting, Bush-bashing loser...and, still, they're here talking about him.
Keyes is disliked, despised, and hated by them...and, still, they're here talking about him.
Keyes will never have a show on MSNBC anyway...and, still, they're here talking about him.

(Oh, the irony.)


Remember that in New York City, police officers, firefighters, the mayor and private-citizen volunteers were running toward the danger, while in Washington, the president, vice president and Congress were running away from it.

Thank you for setting the record straight!

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

All I know of is rdf and Clinton's a liar, are there more?

I know one other for certain (does not post frequently) and believe there to be one more of which I am not absolutely sure. I am not going to post names because I was told about one in confidence and the other is speculation.

BTW, there are several used-to-be workers (I think mostly volunteer) who have left him and rebuked him soundly. They have the most interesting stories to tell but it's usually via Freepmail and usually not shared with Keyesters because their denial is so fixed.

[carenot]

Who?

[Torie]

In case you missed it, this piece in the WSJ today regarding Daschle was quite amusing.

[Sunsong]

I'm talking about what is offensive about Keyes and his supporters --- their arrogance and put downs of others.

Are you willing to discuss that???

I find it so noteworthy that people who are rude, condescending and arrogant talk about others' supposed lack of morality. Don't you???

[Howlin]

All the evidence is to the contrary. See even the post above yours to me.

[EternalVigilance]

Here's another if you like:

Bill Salier U.S. Senate Committee - P.O. Box 109 - Mason City, IA. 50402

The media choice in the primary to oppose Commie Tommy Harkin is Congressman Greg Ganske...a RINO. He voted with Clinton instead of the Republican Caucus 4 times out of 10.

Bill is a great conservative...charismatic, well-spoken, a farmer, ex-Marine (I still hate typing that...don't think they're ever EX-Marines...LOL)...and can take the battle to the socialist warrior Tom Harkin.

Do your own research...but Ganske is trailing way, way behind Harkin in polls...and Harkin has made a habit of eating moderate Congressmen for lunch on election day.

Bill's grassroots network is gonna surprise the establishment...rank and file Republicans don't like Ganske.
