[Morgan in Denver]

Good morning AB and everybody. It's cold in Denver and a good day to learn.

[LadyBuzz]

Thanks for the thread -

News breaks out that USArmy placed TRUE stories in Iraqi press & Russert immediately book McCain hoping to get him say SOMETHING against Rummy or the admn.

Amazing. For more than a decade, CNN chief Eason Jordon spreading LIES about Iraq just so he can keep a handful of his "journos" with his 5star hospitality there. He publicly admits it that he was speading these LIES and media didn't care.

Then comes the news that our Military is spreading TRUTH with the help of Iraqi press and our so-called "journalists" are angry. When Saddam cature of Saddam was announced, the Iraqi journalists erupted in applause & cheer. If Bush announces Bin Laden's capture, our "media" definitely will not cheer or applaud. They would immediately question whether he is treated fairly or would permit IRC's visit. Shameful, but true.

For Russert: 9/11 commission is DEAD. Congress REFUSED it's extension. Bush administration REFUSED to provide ANY documents to it anymore. Furthermore, it lost every bit of credibility when Sandy Burglar STOLE all relevant documents [that would implicate Clinton's mishaps] right under its' nose & never questioned about it. Also, having Gorelick on it's panel instead of as a witness & ally of a crime. Letting Clinton of the hook even after it became public knowledge that Bin Laden's head was offered in a platter & the offer was refused by Clinton.

What percentage of MTP shows in 2005 didn't have McCain or Biden as guests?

[txradioguy]

Good morning AB and everyone here!

Merry Christmas to you all!

Counting down the days til I come back to the states!

Alas...thank you for the thread.

[Bahbah]

Good morning, Alas. I see we will be treated to the opinions of King Kean and King Hamilton and Wolfie is going to have the Bugar combo. I am always sorry to see Lugar on tap to represent the Republican position, but Biden is so loony it may not be too bad.

[txradioguy]

Julian once again shilling for the Libtards on F&F Weekend.

[Just mythoughts]

How cold is it in Denver, I am south of KC,MO. and my monitor says we are 16 degrees?

Where is global warming???

[Miss Marple]

True. However, those birthday gifts have been pretty funny, especially since Julian doesn't get that some of them are insulting.

[Morgan in Denver]

Only in America would lies by the press and media be more revered than truth. The left does not want truth, they are hoping for political issues to further their agendas.

[samtheman]

Meet The Press with John Kerry will start off with this warning:

These contortions are being performed by a professional. You should not attempt to perform them in your own home, without first consulting your physician.

[Bahbah]

Merry Christmas, radioguy. I hope to see you again before the blessed day, but I don't mind saying it several times. Coming home, are you? That is good news.

[tiredoflaundry]

Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif.; Douglas Owsley, division head for physical anthropology at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History.

There is a joke in there somewhere ! ;-)

[anita]

It will be interesting to see if McCain start to realize that he should BEHAVE as a republican, if he has any aspirations about being a future President.

A Web Of Hypocrasy Must see Pic.

Media (Russert in particular) & democrats have been critical of republicans for their connections to lobbyist Jack Abramoff, democrats have their own connections with him too. Mr.Russert, will you call their bluff? Here 's the list (all dems), if you need any help.

1. Nancy Pelosi
2. Harry Reid
3. Tom Dashle
4. Byron Dorgan
5. Tom Harkin
6. James Clyburn
7. Bennie Thompson
8. Dick Gephardt
9. Gregory Meeks
10.Michael McNulty

Straight talker McCain is conducting committee hearings and the ranking member of that committee is a co-conspirator.

[Morgan in Denver]

Mid teens here as well. Colder there since we don't have the humidity you do.

Yep, global warming is going on around the country. It's just that the warm stuff is coming out of the mouth of the left.

[rodguy911]

Morning AB thanks for providing the thread as usual.

Ohhh NO00000!!McCain f'ing,sen. plugs,nagin, and muuuurrrttuuuhhh--I quit. I' gonna commit Harry Carey.

At least MNJ will never get to 1,500 posts with this crew. Thank God I didn't want to live in an igloo anyway.

[Morgan in Denver]

I'm convinced FOX hired Julian to make Juan Williams look good.

[Just mythoughts]

Think maybe McCain has this covered under his 'anti-torture' amendment? Will be interesting to see if McCain advocates Lieberman for Sec. of Defense like Willy Kristol has been this past week.
