[saveliberty]

Wow! Thanks AB!

[saveliberty]

LOL! Aren't you supposed to tell us that you were being sarcastic? ;-)

[Just mythoughts]

For those who have not heard the 'global' message, bjclinton speaks from the mountain top. He says that he and McCain are not married, among other things.

Last Sunday on Meet the Press, Lukegate takes hold.

RUSSERT: James Carville, before you go I understand that politics may be part of your past, that you're going to go on XM Satellite Radio and do sports?

Then comes news - "James Carville and Luke Russert (son of Russert) To host New Sports Talk Show for XM Satellite Radio".

---

1. How would Russert "grill" Hillary if his son is co-hosting radio show with Hillary's campaign manager - Carville? (Conflict, Ethics matter?)

2. Can you promote your son's show on your own show & another late-night show on your network?

3. How XM offers the job to a sophomore at Boston College?

4. You don't need experience in radio or broadcast journalism, if you have a famous last name (Isn't that they were saying about W?)

These type of questions will be asked & explored by the media, IF HE IS SON OF HUME OR HANNITY.

[Just mythoughts]

Oh I don't know about sarcasm, if MacCain isn't on it's not Sunday Morning. Some people go to church others just watch Sunday Morning. (yes sarcasm)

[mainepatsfan]

I'm more worried about his son's bias towards the Bills.

[Morgan in Denver]

Morning AB and everyone. Should be a fun thread today, but I'll be missing some of it. Rats.

I hope posters will put the best parts of Dean's demise on FNS on the thread.

[gov_bean_ counter]

I just glanced over the article. Something about Clinton, McCain and the ass age. Didn't know if they were talking about climate change or Brokeback Mt. May need to reread after a cup of coffee.

[mainepatsfan]

Any Sunday morning Dean is on has the potential for some great sound bites.

[anita]

Aw no MacCain, how will we make it through a Sunday Morning?

He is already shouting

With the same madness.

After this debacle, Russert is addressing a media ethics conference which, many are questioning.

Big fuss over claims about Little Russ - NY Daily News.

"Inviting Tim Russert to keynote a conference on journalistic ethics is like having Jack Abramoff keynote a conference on lobbying reform."

Tim Russert will be out at Ripon College in Wisconsin keynoting a conference on media ethics. - Just One Minute is not happy. (Worth reading in full.)

Entirely different angle

Russert, his buddies at NBC & Media are toast.
Batten Down The Hatches At NBC News - (Both interesting reads)

Re: For those who have not heard the 'global' message, bjclinton speaks from the mountain top. He says that he and McCain are not married, among other things.

Yep, that is not McCain...

[G.Mason]

Am I to assume that as jimmy carter is scheduled to be on Late Edition, that he is still alive, or is this a taped program?

[Peach]

The President is on CBS today? He's a more forgiving man than most.

[Just mythoughts]

Thanks for the links.

Howard Dean: Time to paint Indiana blue

EXCERPT

Another part of Dean's strategy to win voters is to convince Evangelical Christians, who have become the steadfast voters for the Republican party, that they are voting for a party of "selfishness."

Taking a line from Genesis, the first book of the Bible, Dean explained the first question ever asked by anyone was, "Am I my brother's keeper?"

"In the Democratic party we won't forget that," Dean said.

When Bush took over in 2001, the Intifada was in full swing, and there were regular and frequent terror attacks against civilian targets in Israel. Today, the terrorist groups are engaged in a civil war with each other in Gaza and attacks on Israel are relatively rare. It's not clear to me that there is a downside to what has happened. What could be better than to have positioned two enemies to fight amongst each other? This is like Japan and Germany fighting it out during WW2. Lao Tzu himself would have to be impressed.

I mention this because I hope that somebody in today's lineup points it out lest we drift into this "Bush's Peace Process Fails" meme about the whole Middle East and especially Gaza.

[Just mythoughts]

LOL they are up ON a mountain, seems to fit, must have created some 'heat'.
