HAHAHAHA. Brit is taking on Levin regarding the political progress in DC as opposed to the political progress in Iraq. I love Brit.
###### Dissonance @ NYTimes -> Reporting success, deciding on failure.
###### NYTimes and The Islamists The Connection. The Islamists believe we can’t win; so does the New York Times.
###### Incredible Shrinking NYTimes's Paul Krugman and The Deficit.
###### Fact-checking NYTimes! -> NYTimes Distorts al Queda Links.
###### Actions & Consequences! NYTimes bond rating cut to Junk Status by Ratings Services. Meanwhile, Economy is Booming All-over..
###### Time Magazine Decapitates -> President / Troops in Photo.
###### Dems Ran from Fox-debate but can't hide from Fox Microphones.
###### Ethics in atleast one newspaper! Richmond Times-Dispatch suspends two reporters for making political donations (30 days without pay).
###### MSM Dictionary 101! How to become a Key Republican Senator.
###### Poison for CBS, but Feast for ABC! CBS fired General John Batiste from military analyst-ship for appearing in anti-military ad. But ABC sees no ethics-problem inviting him on GMA to bash Iraq war.
###### Talk-Radio's source of news -> is underestimated for Americans of all ages. 60% of Teens don't follow the news closely.
###### Fox's Major Embarrassment Garret is beaten by ABC's Jake Tapper.
###### No Controlling Authority here: Wash.Post -> National Labor Relations Board said the Wash.Post management repeatedly violated labor laws, beginning in 2006, by failing to negotiate in good faith with the Washington-Baltimore Newspaper Guild, which represents more than 1,200 newsroom and commercial employees - also charges that employees were not fairly paid for work they contributed to Washington Post Radio.
###### PBS under Investigation by inspector general of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting for liberal bias (need investigation or action?)

*** Trading Carbon Credits to fly in Private Jets - that was so yesterday. Speeding Drivers Trading Licence Points to avoid prosecution is almost here today! Just Don't tell that to An Inconvenient Youth!
*** Cheney Speaks to Stephen F. Hayes On Clinton's pardons, 9/11 & more. Required Reading in full.
*** Former ABC WH correspondent Jessica Yellin will replace Ted Koppel's media-daughter Andrea Koppel, who was kicked off from CNN.
*** Joe Kildea, has joined ABC's "This Week with George Stephanopolous" as a segment producer. Kildea? - former WH press assistant & "war room manager" for Bush-Cheney in '03 and '04.
*** Sirius Satellite Radio makes Sense...... -> The Conservative Channel is called -> "SIRIUS Patriot".
The Liberal Channel is called -> "SIRIUS Left".
Ugh. Carl Levin’s on now...giving us his best Ben Franklin impersonation.
Five seconds into it: “There has been no progress....” and then names all the political short falls of the Iraqi government. He’s ripping into politicians in Iraq.
Wow. Pot...meet kettle.
Brit’s now talking about how the Dimms in Congress have not met their own benchmarks and asks: “Does this make you a failure”.
Levin: “We’re making progress”. ;^D
Webb gets very angry, says Lieberman attacked him this week, interrupts Graham. Twice. Three times. Nasty little smirk on his melon looking face.
Brit to Levin: “Do you think AQ gives a fig about political changes in Iraq? Do you seriously believe if the oil sharing bill was passed into law, etc...that AQ would go away in Iraq?”
I love Brit!
Television prevents the proper execution of war by the United States.
So did you get a medal for serving so near the slimy dogs? That definitely fits the criteria of above and beyond the call of duty. ;-)
Brit to Levin: “How many troops are necessary to fight AQ in Iraq?”
Levin to Brit: “We have not made an estimate.”
Agreed. Goebbels would have thrived in this media era.
Wow, don’t miss this Donnybrook between Webb and Graham. Webb is a nasty piece of work. Webb accuses Graham of not having been in Iraq. (He just got back.) Tim is absent from this fight.
Levin really is a fool and shows it completely today. Brit is excellent in his interview questions.
I loved the how many remaining troops do we need? We haven’t decided that.
LOL; too funny.
1.That Maliki will get his act together a little quicker,although instant govts. are hard to create in the best of circumstances --these things take time,
2.The surge will work even better than it already is and
3.That Petreaeus is given a chance to explain just how well it is working and
4. How nothing happens overnight in a country that measures events in terms of hundreds of years and
5. That Iran won't get the nuke any time soon.
I’m just glad it wasn’t up to congress to estimate how many soldiers would be required for the D-Day landings.
Thanks. I’ll take a preventive spoonful of Maalox. ;^D
I wonder if Levin thinks those glasses hanging off his nose gives him gravitas.
LOL: Do you think we will be in the land of milk and honey in Iraq if we adopt your proposal (or something like that).
He keeps up with the Civil War meme, even when it is not a Civil War. Dumb jerks.
I also liked how Levin kept saying the glass if half empty rather than half full....always looking at the deep dark side of things rather than the hopeful progress that has been made to date.
Fools, all of them.
The dems are not afraid to do it to us, ever hear of BDS--its all they do. We have to go on the attack against them and big time or lose it all.
You are going to need it. Webb accuses Graham of being a "politician." LOL. What is Webb then? Anyone know where Webb gets his poll that only 35% of the military in Iraq agrees with the current strategy?
