An excerpt from my usual witty commentary:

Having triumphed with a landslide win (hey, a 1 seat margin in the Senate and the smallest historical change in the House in a sixth year of a presidency is a mandate if they say it's a mandate!) the Democrats and DBM are now in full gloat mode.  They are trumpeting their plans to "fix" the country and undo all of the rotten things that the Republicans did since McChimpy Reagan defeated Holy Jimmy the C.  Now the masks are off and they can finally reveal what they really want to do and who they really are.  And they control the agenda!  Remember that.  Be afraid.  Be very afraid.

So, the die is cast, the dinosaur DBM has shown their true colors and they are thinking that they're going to get away with it.  They are wallowing in their illusion of ultimate victory, totally ignoring what actually happened on election day.  Even the most charitable interpretation of the election results shows an evenly divided electorate, yet they are operating as if the vast sea of peasants they think they represent has risen up and is ready to overthrow "the man" who has been keeping them down, totally ignorant of the fact the the DBM is "the man" to the vast majority of Americans.  Oh, are they in for a let down!

The best that can be said about this latest transplant operation is that it hasn't fallen out yet.  However, I have a feeling that this is proceeding exactly according to plan, but the last one was three years ago, so my mind has successfully edited out all of the bad stuff.

On the medical front, the pressure has come back up in my right eye so we're no longer thinking I might lose that right now.  I even got a new contact lens for the other eye on Friday and that gives me great distance vision, thought he reading vision is really for the birds, but that can be solved with drug store "cheaters," so I'm really encouraged.As always, all prayers are much appreciated.  However, I have to say that, as things go, my problems are pretty minor, so I encourage all to say their prayers for those in real need.  I always feel sorry for myself with my problems, till I see some of the folks who my doctor is helping who are far worse off than I am, and that doesn't begin to deal with the folks who are out there putting their lives on the line for the rest of us, so I feel blessed, no matter my situation.

apologies for the REALLY BIG TEXT on the opening post. I do that while I'm editing and forgot to fix it before posting. Sorry about that!

The Sunday Morning Talk Shows - preview

By Mark Kilmer

For Sunday, November 5, 2006

Meet the Press (NBC): Host Tim Russert talks to National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley, author of the Maliki Memo leaked to the New York Times. Then he chats with Carl Levin and John Warner, trading places on the Senate Armed Services Committee.

He also talks to Jimmy Carter, but that's immaterial.

FOX News Sunday (FNS): Host Chris Wallace talks to... well, it must be Christmas early this year. Wallace will interview Joe Biden and Lindsey Graham, John McCain's proxy on the send lots and lots more troops now! line. Then Wallace speaks with Mr. Justice Stephen Breyer while we watch grass grow and paint dry.. (Justice Breyer is pragmatic and progressive, yep.)

Face the Nation (CBS): Host Bob Schieffer talks to Hadley then to Chuck Hagel and Joe Lieberman. On the war, Lieberman is pragmatic, while Hagel's position is that of those who style themselves progressive. Hagel's the registered Republican, and he reminds us that he is conservative on other matters. Lieberman, of course, is lefty on other matters.

This Week (ABC): Host George Stephanopoulos talks to himself, among others. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will discuss Iraq with Steph, as will the exciting and excitable yet unflappable charisma-bot Evan Bayh of Indiana.

Late Edition (CNN): Host Wolf Blitzer talks to Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad, Saudi Ambassador/HIghness Prince Turki Al-Faisal, Senator Jon Kyl, and the rehabbing but not apologizing Senator John Kerry. And his usual cast of thousands.

It looks like another fun morning, and I'll have the report for you right here. Posted in Comments (0)/ Email this page » / Read More »

To: Admin Moderator; Alas Babylon!

will you please change the title of my thread to reflect the correct dates of December 2nd and 3rd?

Sorry, I'm dealing with post surgery issues and am not 100% (or at least that's the excuse that I'm using this week)

Thanks
