NBC is knocking the GOP speech over and over and over.
“He is newly minted ..” “only 11 days”... over and over.

NBC is alQaeda’s very best friend (after the NYTimes).

So in other words, I didn’t miss anything.

“I thought I read that Joe Wilson was giving the rebuttal!”

Not as far as I know. I saw Wilson interviewed by Cavuto today. Very disappointing. Weak, IMHO.

You can sleep after listening to this crap?
