“Alan Keyes Is Making Sense” to Air Weeknights at 10PM, ET Beginning January 21st
SECAUCUS, NJ- January 7, 2002- Former Presidential Candidate and Reagan-era U.S. Ambassador at the United Nations, Alan Keyes has joined MSNBC as host of a new one-hour commentary show, “Alan Keyes Is Making Sense,” weeknights at 10PM, ET. Erik Sorenson, president and general manager, MSNBC, made the announcement today.
“We're excited that Alan is bringing his highly-regarded grasp of global issues and his larger-than-life personality to MSNBC," said Sorenson. "This network has distinguished itself as the cable news channel for smart young viewers interested in knowing about their world. Alan's deep knowledge, incredible capacity to frame debate, and provocative views will be a great addition to an already-terrific primetime lineup.”
“Alan Keyes Is Making Sense” is a live one-hour talk show providing in-depth analysis and commentary on the issues of the day from politics, economics to the various cultural hot buttons. The program will originate from Washington, D.C.
Keyes received his Ph.D in Government Affairs in 1979 from Harvard University. He served during the Reagan Administration in the U.S. Foreign Service and on the staff of the National Security Council before being appointed Ambassador to the United Nations Economic and Social Council in 1983. He was the Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs from 1985-87.
Alan Keyes is also a two-time Republican presidential candidate and two-time Republican Senate nominee from the state of Maryland. His greatest public exposure came most recently through his dynamic and much extolled performances in the 2000 Republican Presidential Debates.
For the past 10 years, Keyes has reached a nationwide audience each day through his nationally syndicated radio program, “The Alan Keyes Show: America’s Wake-Up Call.” He is the author of two critically acclaimed books, Masters of the Dream: The Strength and Betrayal of Black America and Our Character, Our Future: Reclaiming America’s Moral Destiny, with a third to be released soon. Keyes and his wife of 19 years, Jocelyn, reside in Maryland with their three children: Francis, Maya and Andrew.

Thanks again...

Again, thanks so much....keep that computer burning up the net.
Will let you know later....but in the meantime, keep your computer hot and the wires burning.
Thanks....
Interesting, isn't it, that now they have to invent Keyes' words in order to have anything to talk about?!
It just goes to show you, it's all in their heads.
Will I win a prize? Will it be bright and shiney?

This is just about as funny and silly as it gets. I'm not a genius; but ya know, if I go to the ice cream store knowing I hate chocolate I'm not about to stand at the counter and argue with a clerk about chocolate chips in the chocolate or the merits of french chocolate over rocky road n cream chocolate. Rather than wasting my time over something I have no intention of buying, I'm gonna be at the counter looking and salivating over the prospect of consuming either the strawberry or peach that I love.
No rocket science required! So, with all these educated folks here, litanizing all real or imagined faults of the dear Dr., I've come to the following conclusion:
They are "CLOSET KEYESTERS"! Yep. They have to be.....who else in their right mind would go on a thread that was about a RUMOR that Keyes was going to have a television show and run it up to 797 posts long....at one point, around #780, JimRob had to lock it out to prevent more flaming!!
How else can you explain the frantic rush to any thread that has Keyes name with flagging to others, and no doubt FReepmail as well.
How else to explain, other than actually being a CLOSET KEYESTER, a poster named "Southflanknorthpawsis" admitting to 'disliking' him and to being an admitted 'Keyes basher' coming on a thread announcing a new television program featuring Dr. Keyes, and bumping this announcement TEN (10) times!
Logic would tell you if this poster REALLY disliked him, the poster would want this thread buried so no one would know, so no one would watch, so he could fail, so the poster and friends could chortle and shout with glee at the demise of the 'bad ol' boogey man' Dr. Alan Keyes! It surely couldn't be the other choice of reasons why--which would be to make an ass of themselves....Republicans don't do those sorts of things... :)
I'd sure like to see one of our Keyesters come up with an award design so we could honor these CLOSET KEYESTERS when they show their love and devotion to Dr. Keyes.
BTW, just so no one feels I've picked out the poster 'Southflanknorthpawsis' to rail against.....sorry....not true.....this poster has won the Conservative Poster of the Day with her TEN (count 'em) posts, which beat out harpu at NINE. Maybe next time, harpu.
Congratulations on being 'outted' as a CLOSET KEYESTER, Southflanknorthpawsis.
Bright and shiny, hmmmm.....like does it begin with S or W, or R, or B, or U, or ?(er, I can't think of all the mfg. names)...or are ya looking for a shiny 2002 penny?
Hope ya had a nice New Years and that the entire year is good to you. :)
I believe the word you're groping for is parody. That's what it was, and it was hilarious. Like most things that are truly humorous, there was truth in it. (I laughed my head off!)
Are you saying that 328 posts have been deleted from this thread?
Oh, you're welcome Rowdee. I quite sincerely hope you reach your goal, and I don't mind being here to express my opinion of Alan Keyes in the process. If I can help, I will do my best. You can count on me. (Good to know you appreciate WWII vets; I would have assumed so.)
Oh, absolutely! It will be interesting to see whether the public responds to: Blah blah blah blah blah, GRIN. Blah blah blah blah blah, GRIN. [Insert gratuitous shot at President Bush.] Blah blah blah blah blah, GRIN. [Pat self on back.] Blah blah blah blah blah, EXTRA-WIDE GRIN!! [Cut to commercial.]
