Why did Ted Kennedy wait so long to report the fatal accident at Chappaquitic? Why did the Clinton White House wait so long to report the "suicide" of Vince Foster?

I got stuck in traffic last night and was listening to some POS radio program from DC, the idiots on there were claiming Chenay was drunk, the he had to be sadeted after the shooting, the radio announcer tried to compare the 18 hours Cheney took to get in the news to the missing 18 minute of the watergate tapes. It was hilarious until I realised these people were serious. Crazy, they are all certified Loonie Tunes.

Giving or receiving... Don't ask, Don't tell.

That depends on whether it was Dan Rather or Monica.

Hypocrisy is thy middle name of the democ-rats. Call me nuts but I could have sworn I heard someone say Teddy "Chappaquiddick" Kennedy even got into this as well, saying something about the "delay". Can you imagine? If you thought hypocrisy had reached it`s highest level with the drunkards questioning of Alito, this has got to be the sky shattering ulitimate.

"errr *hic* Whyy did the Vice President delay *hic* making this public *hic*? Whyyy did he let her drown in the car *hic* ooops, I mean why did he *hic* take his time to ahhnswer questions? *Hic*"

Upon realizing he had just shot Mr. Whittington, Cheney should have rushed to a microphone. If necessary he should have been airlifted to the nearest TV station with a network tie in and made the anouncement. That was much more important than getting medical help for Mr. Whittington, in fact, by getting his priorities screwed up and immediately getting aid to the shootee he cheated the honorable members of the press out of a significant story.Whittington should have died in order for the Press to be able to report something of substance. It's all bush's fault and his running dog Whittington.

Not when you give them the proper finger...Even if you give them that one in the New York way, at least three fingers are pointing back at your palm.

Google now lists 4,468 recent news articles on this controversy. It's beyond insane.

the White House is under fire

With cap guns and wet caps. The antagonists have to yell bang bang real loud.

"Honest" Hillary has just proven herself to have the most gigantic steel testicles of anyone in public life, male or female!

Have you ever heard the adage that there's a find line between arrogant stupidity and guts?

I think that Senator Cankles was asked for a comparison to these issues and responded that "she couldn't recall".

I've been ABC free for 6 six years and never felt a relapse coming on. Also true for CNN, NBC, CBS etc. We should honor the brave individuals who monitor the sewers for the rest of us.

"Can you imagine? If you thought hypocrisy had reached it`s highest level with the drunkards questioning of Alito, this has got to be the sky shattering ultimate."

And they get a pass with their double-standards of what is bad taste, as well.

I heard Leno make a "joke" the other night that the only problem with the Cheney accident is that it wasn't President Bush he was hunting with.

received an e-mail joke last night that summed up my thoughts pretty well: "I'd still rather go quail hunting with Cheney than driving with Kennedy."

Rush is the one that said that originally, on his Monday show.
