NBC Meet The Press (Tim Russert)
Below are the topics and guests announced for this program, along with my take on the "memes" that the show is trying to push. With each guest's name are a series of links that I found in a web search that helped me get a handle on who they are and what their likely positions will be when they are interviewed.
- Meme:
- Yes! The right (left) party is finally back in charge! All Dhimmicrats will now fall in line and support the DBM/Soros/MoveOn.ORG agenda... what was that you just said?
- No matter what you think, the Dhimmicrats are not "cutting and running," they are insisting on an orderly redeployment to the safety of somewhere in Southeast Asia, or so says
The future President of the United States the Senator who should be Secretary for the Redistribution of Wealth, Jim (nothing I wrote was inappropriate) Webb (it's much more accurate to say that they want to negotiate a surrender in Iraq and slouch away, in any case) - Listen to the wisdom of the old media as put forward by elder statesmen such as Dan (down but not out) Rather and this weeks guru, Ted (I know how to deal with Iran, America Held Hostage, day 9,877) Koppel
- Topics:

Of course McC is burned out. It's not easy changing positions, bashing the President, bashing republcans, and watch for him to praise his hero General Shinseki too. PUKE
Af for Kaye Bailey Hutchison. She once announced that she would support a woman democrat against a male republican. That tells me all I ever wanted to know about her. At least she'll never be Governor of Texas.
Not a bit of difference between an America hating dem and Miss Lyndsay Graham, more blech.
Frankly, I'd like to watch Webb doing contortions. He has nothing to offer and represents nothing but perversion. He disgusts me. Feel free to tell me it's just a novel, I disagree.

Makes me gag at what committees they put the 'newbie' Webb on...
And, boy did they sock it to Montana...their guy will have no "pork" chances, or any other way to help that state much after the committees they stuck him on.
Actually, they probably took one close up look at Tester and realized they had a 'hick'....LOL
BTW..I had NOT seen that article in the WaPo about President Bush forming his OWN group to study Iraq...thus keeping Condi here, instead of with him....I LOVED it..because it shows to me that he is NOT happy with the leaked results of the Iraq Study Group.
I wish he would use this time to rethink Gates as well.

Great job as usual Phsstpok. Great comment on the "buyers remorse", they ain't seen nothing yet.
All the cry babies thought they bought a huge bag of groceries with the rats, wait until they start unpacking the stuff and find out it's all stones and rocks.
