He will, however, remain as one of the favorite moderators of the Commission on Presidential Debates!! gag
What a BIG LIB!
Definitely a big annoying, misinformed lib, but I have to say, I loved the skit he did with Dave Chappele about the blind black white-supremest.
Hilarious.
52 years of a wasted life! Goodbye and GOOD RIDDANCE you leftist media prick!
Is there a special old folks home for lifelong, anti-American, propagandizing Commies....oh....say in Boston or SanFrancisco?
Good riddance to the Baggy-eyed Bolshevik.
MSNBC?
They will replace him with McNeil
I truly enjoy the News Hour.
Good debate from people who aren’t the pretty talking heads you see on most cable news, and nobody yells at anyone else. Polite and thoughtful.
Of course, I’m one of those people who isn’t afraid to hear differing viewpoints.
Those who disagree with me aren’t evil, just wrong — and if I want them to listen to me, I’m willing to listen to them. Educates me for persuasive debate.
Oh, he’ll be back in time for the next presidential election.
What happen? His eyeballs explode? Can’t stand that creepy lib.
Good riddance.
The next way to improve the show would be to push off that old windbag Mark Shields. He beautifully illustrates that there is no fool like an old fool.
After that, get rid of David Brookes (R-Lite) and get a real conservative.
He’ll still be a talking corpse for the libs. Not only is this senile, old fart be around, probably obama will tap him to be a seniors czar.
After 52 years in journalism...
Any Guesses as to what his PBS pension will be?
David Brooks, successor to Paul Gigot as the token consertative. Gigot destoyed the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal. It was all amnesty, all the time with him.
