Wasn't Graham a pro-choice, McCain supporter?

He definitely was not pro-choice, nor is he now. Very pro life. He has explained his primary period (2000) support of McCain and most people in SC have chalked that one up as a mistake of naivety. He backed away from McCain the more McCain drifted toward his partnerships with Teddy K. and others. I don't think he will be that naive again.

I read it on a thread last night but don't remember whether it was a post or a link. Will try to find it.

[chiller]

More proof that North Korea wants nothing more than publicity and to be considered a "player." LOL

Its a much needed PR campaign because they are the lowest and least important pond scum.

[RobFromGa]

thanks, no big deal, if you come across it...

[Chi-townChief]

Mike "BJ" Farrell looked a little shaky going one-on-one, didn't he?

[tuna_battle]

Fred Thompson (R-TN) was a riot, when he first arrived on "Meet the Press". "Hollywood is full of leftists?” he wryly questioned out loud. "Who would have thought that? Gee…”

I've noticed that the Hollywierdoes are starting to wind down on the war talk. Two weeks ago, you couldn't turn on any channel without seeing some of them blathering on and on. But now, I think maybe they're figuring out the american people don't appreciate their interference in our governmental policies.

[Floratina]

Did anyone catch this comment that Brit made about Gulf War I during the round table? He was talking about the naysayers and this group included a certain news anchor (he worked with) who was rather vociferous with his criticisms.

He didn't name names, but he did work at ABC, didn't he. Could he have been referring to Peter Jennings?

[demkicker]

"When asked what the war will cost, I'm waiting for someone to turn to the questioner and ask "What's the life of your wife worth? What's the dollar value you're willing to put on your kids?"

Thank you! This is without a doubt the best "talking point" retort to give these (take your pick) commies/liberals/American haters/utopians.

I hope everyone in the media who wants to counter such an idiotic question will respond with, "What's the life of your wife worth? What's the dollar value you're willing to put on your kids?"

PERFECT RESPONSE!

I'm watching The Chris Mathews show with this trememdous comedian Kristina Vandenhoval...I've only seen her occasionally but she's always funny

I don't know if she has any video tapes of her at the comedy club, but If you get a chance to see her, she's really very good.

Her shtick is to make believe she's a serious editor of a make believe magazine called "The Nation", and she spouts unbelieveably dumb things that are just too funny.....

[marajade]

You know nothing is ever good enough for the Dems, including Biden... but what exactly did Clinton accomplish other than being serviced in the oval office?

They delivered a letter to every senator seeking questions in relation to Estrada and Biden is out there lying saying that Estrada is refusing to answer questions... Has Biden asked him any?

[Alas Babylon!]

Bingo! You got it. They are nothing more than Democratic party shills. Barbra Streisand garners millions of $$$ for the Democrats. The Hollywood anti-war types are nothing more than Democratic operatives and funders.

[marajade]

"Saying right now that the Vice President was right, going to the UN was a trap."

We're being accused of being aggressive anyway so why did we bother? My guess is Powell said to Bush he could deliver and he hasn't...

[chiller]

I caught it. Clearly about Jennings' predictions of the first Gulf War, which all turned out to be wrong!

[lawdude]

"Well, Tim, we know inspections work."

What part of the inspections are working? The purpose of inspecting it to inspect the prior recorded destruction of his arsenal. NOT to force the piecemeal destruction of a very, very small percentage of the weapons we know him to have.

[marajade]

What I don't get is why the Dems feel in relation to Iraq it has to be multilateral and in North Korea unilateral? And then you have Howard Dean who doesn't understand the meaning of either word... I'm not as stupid as the Dems think I am...

[marajade]

What is it with her anyway? She complains that Bush gives a speech to a conservative think tank and then further complains that he doesn't force the media to carry it... Give me a break! Is this the best arguments they can make?

[hole_n_one]

5th paragraph from the bottom......

Diplomatic contacts between Paris and Washington DC have grown increasingly frosty, culminating in an acrimonious telephone call between President Bush and President Chirac early last week, which ended with Bush saying firmly: "President Chirac, we will not forgive and we will not forget

[jwalsh07]

I heard Congressman Andrews state today unequivocally that Iraq and Saddam Hussein "were not a threat to the United States". Might make a good poster.

[marajade]

"If I had to guess, he has probably been in Turkey as well."

Geraldo stated that elected officials are already getting calls that they should have voted differently because their country is really in economic trouble... I guess we were the only ones willing to go to bat for them with the IMF in relation to a 16 bil loan and our own 30 bil gift. Their stock markets had already figured in that it would pass and now that its failed its going to be a wild ride tomorrow...
