I really enjoyed the show yesterday. Your co-host really bugged me though by constantly talking about "Joe Scarsboro" and "Mitch Romney." It's Scarborough (no "s" in the middle) and Mitt (no "ch") Romeny! That was so distracting from the points he was trying to make.
I jumped up and pumped my hand when you got onto the "it's the primaries" notion towards the end of the show. The time to make a difference is when we can get conservative Republicans (or Democrats) in as the condidates, not when we're forced to choose between RINOs and Dhimmicrats. I'll always choose the RINO (...well, not in the case of Chafee or McClame, I guess) over the Dhimmicrat, but I want to have a different choice, and that argument starts November 8th of this year.
I have to tell you I'm not willing to climb on the "Hastert should have known" bandwagon yet. There has been too much "evidence" that has later been contradicted for me to be willing to accept any source as definitive. I'm checking with lots of sources, both public and private, and will form my judgement accordingly. I will say that my usual contrary nature kicks in when both Nancy Pelosi and Pat Buchannan want Hastert's scalp. Talk about an unholy alliance!
ROFLL!!!
I know what you mean! On all those points!
Poor John-- he is a brillian guy-- mostly with numbers...
kinda like those book smart people vs common sense...
His "sources" bother me too! LOL! When He said Mitch- I about died! He also referred to Pat Buchannon and Joe...as you point out... UGH!
As we get more comfortable together- you will begin to see us actually argue and debate each other.. this is where we both want to eventually go... the funny thing is that regardless of how different we are- we have a chemistry that is really weird. We actually like each other.. and have a lot of fun- laughing, debating, etc- over the phone...
I am hoping to really use the FREEPers to help call him on his sources-- and challenge him.... Just as he challenges me-- and he does...but we both like being challenges on things and don't get mad...he is more patient to listen than I am though- LOL! I have to give him that...
I understand totally about waiting for more facts.....
eeeeeevil...I love you passion..and always enjoy reading your rants.
Where I have a problem is that I have been reading the whole thread today..and I have read several of samantha's posts re: Foley...and the way I read them, IF Foley had not sent the over-friendly e-mails to pages...and the disgusting (I haven't read them) IMs to pages...
He would be the kind of Representative we would all LOVE to have..gay or not gay.
Having said that...I posted the other day that these people are ELECTED by their constituents...and they are ADULTS..which means that they shouldn't need babysitting, and I am pretty sure that the job description for Speaker of the House does NOT include, reading the personal correspondence of all 500 something Congress people...and from what I have read...when told of Foley's "friendliness" towards pages...he was told by Hastert through aides to STOP..and Foley said he would.
Until/unless more comes out that would implicate Hastert or any other Congressperson in a concerted effort to not deal with Foley, KNOWING about the IMs...I just don't see how we can sit back and watch the security of our country be in jeopardy...because of "political gotcha" games.
I remember it was just about 10 days ago...that the dems thought the NIE report would take down Bush and the GOP....I haven't even heard a word about that report since then.
IF we all just think of NOW, this next month..and that election...there will be plenty of time for self-flagellation by the Republican Party..and conservatives.
