The Sunday morning talk show freepers are all postimg for next Sunday’s awards. Same old, same old. Don’t rock the boat.

I watched the program and thought Rudy lacking in truth and substance. He was especially weak regarding Kerick. Roody claimed not to know his background when he nominiated him for homeland security. So far as I am concerned, Rooty was either incompetent or naive (stupid). He was pathetic on this issue.

Excellent points----I hoped Russert would remind Rooty that he gets paid big bucks as a “security expert.“ Vetting people is part of the security services Rooty sells.

Also, Russert should have mentioned Kerik was Rooty’s driver and bodyguard before Rooty promoted him.

Rooty knows plenty about Kerik----AND----Kerik knows where all Rooty’s bodies are buried.

That really is an assinine comment.

First, you’re stating that anyone posting on the thread, since Phsstpok and Rodguy911 give out awards, are only saying things the judges like to hear. I think that will be news to Phsstpok, a true Tennessean and Fred Thompson supporter, and Rodguy who is not for Guiliani (I don’t know who he’s supporting, but it’s not Rudy). So do not denegrate our integrity like that. That’s how democrats argue.

Second, we have very few Rudy supporters on the thread. But so what if there was? Last I heard, JimRob is not banning Rudy supporters. I don’t expect any FReeper supporter or detractor of a particular candidate to state falsehoods to make their point, do you? If they do, call them on it, but don’t put motives into play that aren’t there.

Third, we don’t like Tim Russert. He’s one of the most biased newsmen out there, and that’s saying a lot. So if we’ve mistated anything vis-a-vis Russert’s interview on Sunday, we’d come down hard on Russert everytime.

Fourth, no one is lockstep on any Sunday thread I’ve seen. Disagreeing happens as much as folks agreeing. The only difference is we try dang hard to be civil. We sometimes fail, myself included, but we try hard not to.

Finally, the next time Guiliani is on ANY Sunday show, please come to the thread and post your review. We’d love to hear it.

......Rooty was either incompetent or naive (stupid). He was pathetic on the Kerik issue...........

Everything Rooty’s said so far is a contradiction of what he said (or did) in a previous life...........his memory underwent an Extreme Makeover.

Giuliani’s “values” wouldn’t fill a thimble. He worships at the Church of Whatever Works For Me.

This egomaniacal braggart thinks he can force on Americans the irrational mindset stinking up Mideast hellholes.

Nothing, sir, is stopping you from stopping into the thread and voicing your opinion. We don't like Russert. It's not that we like Giuliani, although some of you here on Free Republic are so blinded by your myopic, deranged hatred of him that it makes you look like utter fools. Our point of view is that of the media analyst and critic; we look at both the host and the guest. Yes, we have a tendency to be particularly hard on the hosts, but we have no problem criticizing RINOs on the thread (I know Huckabee has earned my wrath numerous times).

I assure you, this is not an old boys club-- I've been winning the "awards" (they're JPEGs for crying out loud!) for the past few weeks and I only joined that thread a couple of months ago. My second week of posting there got me "first prize." We are not some sort of cabal that looks down upon outsiders as scum. The Thompson and Hunter supporters made visits to the thread when their candidates were on the shows, and save for a few who acted rudely toward the other posters, we have never had any problems. If you have something to contribute while watching these shows, you are welcome to show up and voice your opinion.
