Please check out Phsstpok’s EXCELLENT Sunday Talk Show PRE-Thread.

It’s a great way to hear analysis on why the Driveby Media (DBM) picks the guests, what they’ll probably discuss, and other pertinent facts. Also, check out his blog!

We all used to post these back before the election of 2006, in honor of the genius (not to be confused with Phsstpok!) that was Karl Rove...

I’m watching cspan, Clara Jeffery from Mother Jones is on the air. What an anti-american weenie. Since I honor their request to only call in every 30 days, I’m refraining this morning. However, I did send an email asking where is the balance? She is spewing dnc leftwing anti-american talking points for the entire segment and its disgraceful that cspan doesn’t have an opposing position on the air.

A few good republican callers this morning taking her on, but in large measure she is just spewing propaganda.

Shame on cspan.

It looks today is “Rove Sunday” on the talk show circuit.

Funny thing is, joe average has never heard of Karl Rove, the one time Bastard known as Magnificent.

And how in the world is there going to be a Democrat Debate on a half hour show?

Thanks, AB & Good Morning to EveryOne! Congrats to last week's topsters!

All networks can rush to Rove now, but NOBODY can beat Rush in interviewing Rove, may be the MSM could learn a thing or two about true journalism from the Mega-Talker.

It is strange to see how NBC go out of their way to boost the liberals. They provided telephone directories to boost the height of Tom Daschle.

Now we know that last week, NBC put pillows on Koshack's chair on MTP so he wouldn't look so short.

It looks like it was NBC's effort to boost his image than the other way.

If Russert shows up... MTP could be worth watching.

Here is what I sent:

With all due respect to Washington Journal, your guest today is a left-leaner who presents NO objectivity to any argument. She is merely spewing the leftwing talking points, without any context.

Unemployment is at historical lows.

The market is at historical highs.

More homeowners than ever in history.

America is the greatest country.

Just because people she supports (John Kerry) calls the United Stated a “periha” in a foreign land, doesn’t make it true.

Pretty shameful display of one-sided anti-american bias by CSPAN this morning.

Thanks for listening.

I liked the comic after Rove wasn’t indicted of him as Moby Dick and the Dems as Captain Ahab.

I’d say take a drink every time a Democrat candidate says “Karl Rove” during the debate, but passing out before noon on the Sabbath might be bad form.

The host was pretty mad about my email and talked about how the next segment will present the opposite view; The host just stated: Tim Carney is coming up to present “another point of view”.

ON a personal note, the host DID pronounce my name correctly...which is a hardship for a lot of people. HA

No doubt Hillary will play the victim yet again about Rove’s comments that she is a fatally flawed candidate. It’d be fun if Obama and or Edwards agreed but they won’t because they can’t afford to be seen as agreeing with the lib anti Christ Rove.

LOL... read this piece on Rove. It was in the LATimes under 'Politics'... but it could have been the feature story on Clinton's website.

Clinton may be a target of Rove's reverse psychology

Thanks AB for the thread as always and what a brilliant pre-thread.I have always liked and respected Rove. One can only imagine the slings an arrows sent his way over the past few years, probably more than any mortal can stand.
(Sure have missed this place over the past week)

Here 's this sunday's Media Nuggets

###### UNREPORTED Poll! A surprising 94% of Americans say they are satisfied with their lives, according to a new survey by The Harris Poll. What 's amazing is it was in the 90s since 2003 but never reported by the MSM.

###### Associated Press' dumps it's Credibility! to Save Obama. AP wires an article, written like a campaign press release to save Obama.

###### Ratherism is still alive in the Media! -> Terrorist Propaganda Picture of the Week.

###### U.S. Army Corps of Engineers = 1, TIME magazine = 0 ! TIME magazine's cover story, "The Threatening Storm," contains many errors and misrepresentations of facts.

###### Rupert Murdoch's climate crusade! News Corp.'s campaign against global warming includes free light bulbs, subsidized hybrids and babes in green.

###### Fox caves-in! The #3 Rated 'Half Hour News Hour' will be axed soon. Reason? Liberal Newscorp president Peter Chernin didn't like it.

###### 2 faces of News Corp. Fox serving as a mouthpiece for NYTimes & NYPost exposing the NYTimes.

###### A University Press Stands Up — and Wins -> against libel thuggery by "Islamic charity".

###### MSM Newser arrested! -> in bank robbery.

###### MSM Reporter Charged! -> With Murder.

###### Ethics Panel Subpoenas Reporter! -> in Scandal surrounding democrat Gov. Eliot Spitzer.

###### Newspapers Cut 900 Jobs Since April -> Since April, more than 900 U.S. newspaper jobs have been cut due to Declining Circulation and Shrinking Ad. Revenues.

###### Rather to Address Magazine Bosses ! -> Dan Rather will moderate a panel, "Handicapping the 2008 Presidential Election" at the American Magazine Conference. Well, he tried it during last Prez.election & failed miserably & lost his hob.

###### Rest in Peace! -> Stuff Magazine.

B u z z .......

*** Haditha Massacre: -> Media and Terrorist Hoax?

*** "Late Edition" Senior Producer Lee Brenner leaves CNN to join News Corp's MySpace.

*** Pat Robertson extends his influence to Hollywood.

*** Hillary Clinton's friend expelled from Tunisia -> Arafat’s widow Suha Arafat that is.

The only worry I have about the Petraeus Report is how it will be spun by the drivers-by.

Once again it will fall on us to ge the truth out as the dems-- bent on defeat will lie their sorry asses offff about just how effective the surge is, has been, and will be.

Sad thing for the dems is that we are always ready and willing to take them on and bounce them off the wall yet again.

But guys like Petraeus and Crocker — who live in Kevlar vests, floss the sand out of their teeth at night and make daily life-and-death choices — may be prone to stretch the truth. That’s why my fellow Americans put their faith in the men of CNN; men who employ people to choose their neckties, who wear earphones so others can tell them what to say and which way to turn.

LOL. Thank you, Scrappleface.
