In all fairness, I can't imagine watching C-Span. The novelty wore off a number of years ago. I think the last "guest" I ever watched was Molly Ivens. She proved she had two talents worth mentioning (although I wouldn't waste time writing home about them). She proved she could giggle and spit, sometimes in a single thought, well part of one, since she never actually completed a thought.

The other thing that eventually affected you like a toilet paper commercial was the incessant callers starting some question with, "Thank God for C-Span." What drivel. It has to be 4 or 5 years since the last time I stopped at that insipid station. Thank God there are real outlets for news these days.

All due respect, but you have to be crazy. Where else can I go to get the full unedited broadcast of the President's speech on the Michigan case, and the full, unedited coverage of the opposition's response, etc.? With another chance to see it again later on in the evening?

Brian Lamb does some real excellent, patriotic, informative, constructive work. CSPAN is great.

I watched the other FR patriots rally on C-Span once. I skipped past the piecenick part.
That's the only time I've ever visited that station. Why bother?

I stopped watching when the call-ins became politically balanced.

A Demon line and a GOP line.

At one time it was East and West. And you could tell who the intelligent callers were. Who knew the facts, and who could just babble.

CSPAN made Demons look very bad during the early years.

And we can't have that!

For me, I refuse to bother with cable, so C-Span is only something I see or hear about outside of home. Why subscribe to cable companies that are big contributors to the Left and promote all manners of Leftist propaganda?
