AND NOW . . . amidst billowing clouds of fragrant, aromatic first- and second-hand premium cigar smoke. . . it is time for . . . that harmless, lovable little fuzz ball, the highly-trained broadcast specialist, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have, from behind the golden EIB microphone, firmly ensconced in the prestigious Attila-the-Hun chair at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, with talent on loan from G-d, at the cutting-edge of societal evolution, with half his brain tied behind his back just to make it fair, the all-knowing, all-caring, all-sensing, all-feeling, Maha-Rushie! America's Anchorman, Truth Detector, Doctor of Democracy, and Chief of the Patriotism Police. He is the man who runs America. He knows the Democrats like every square inch of his glorious naked body. He is ready to do what he was born to do--That's host. Get ready to what you were born to do--That's listen (and post your comments on the Rush Limbaugh LIVE Radio Thread).
Hmm...
The campaign had so little money to advertise, Marttila recalled, that Biden’s army of volunteers had to get mailers to voters by walking neighborhoods around the state. But Biden eked out a victory.
A month later, as he was in Washington interviewing candidates for his office staff, the fatal accident occurred. His wife and three children had been out shopping for a Christmas tree.
Biden didn’t want to take his Senate seat, said Ted Kaufman, another longtime friend who worked on that campaign and would serve as Biden’s chief of staff for 22 years.
Waiting for his sons to recover in the hospital, Biden wrote in his 2007 memoir, “Promises to Keep,” he would take long walks around the seedy neighborhoods nearby. “I liked to go at night when I thought there was a better chance of finding a fight,” Biden wrote. “I was always looking for a fight. I had not known I was capable of such rage.”
The loss also shook his deep Catholic faith. “I felt God had played a horrible trick on me,” he wrote.
****Montana Sen. Mike Mansfield, the Democratic leader at the time, convinced Biden to stay in the Senate. *(He was sworn in at one son’s bedside in the hospital.) But Biden resolved not to be separated from his family. He gave up a house that he and his wife had planned to buy in the capital and instead went back to Delaware every night.
“The rule in the office was if the boys called, he was to be interrupted no matter what he was doing or who he was talking to,” Kaufman said. “He was never out of communication with them.”
Biden’s father, a proud man who had made his children talk about foreign affairs around the dinner table, would frequently come down to the Capitol to see the young senator, sitting in on his son’s hearings and other meetings. “His dad loved it,” Kaufman

Tragedy shaped Biden/Vid of son’s intro
He decided not to the office, my sons need a father... BUT, he was convinced and was sworn in by his bedside... HENCE it made him strong. Is it me?
People who can't see a clear distinction between these two should have their voting privileges revoked.
You need to understand that McCain is stuborn and as the MSM attacks him and his choice of VEEP, he will dig in his heels and become more and more the President we want.
ROFL!
EXACTLY
WE MUST NAME NAMES!
WOW. GO RUSH.
Good for Rudy and Joe! I loved the short segment I saw of the convention last night in which Sean and that idiot Alan Colmes were interviewing Rudy. Alan was trying to play "gotcha", as usual, and his question was so stupid that Rudy was openly laughing as he listened.
And when he answered it, his amused disdain for the question was evident. Darn, I can't remember what the question was!

WE MUST NAME NAMES!
Where was Biden? Why can’t he control his daughter? He shouldn’t be out campaigning, if she’s going to do a thing like that.
His family wasn’t properly vetted.
There is no “Rove Effect”, is just another deranged liberal illusion held by folks barely holding on to sanity themselves.
EVERYTHING bad that happens to the lib agenda is a “Rovian Plot”.
Meanwhile, I ask what came first.
The ROVE? Or the CLINTON??
“If the world hate you, you know that it hated me before it hated you”
It’s the age old battle.

OBrien is quick to give credit to her team of helpers at home. I have a wonderful nanny and a bunch of young women in college who are my baby sitters who help me out here and there. As you know, pregnant women take a lot of naps, so it helps to have them come over and play with the kids.
Oh, boy.....
And Nancy Pelosi.
Well now we know WHY Biden was out there yesterday saying “children should be off limits! It’s a question of decency!”
Explains it all.
We are seeing the end of network news imho..
“I’m sure Davis is hoping Barry loses big time in November. “
What I thought. But even if BO wins they will work to undermine him. It is kind of like the end of Deliverance when the arm of the dead guy comes up out of the water.
Yeah...thank ya kindly :)
