Please check out Phsstpok’s EXCELLENT Sunday Talk Show PRE-Thread. It’s a great way to hear analysis on why the DBM picks the guests, what they’ll probably discuss, and other pertinent facts.

Good morning, and thanks again for this weekly thread.

Lots of (R)'s after the guest names this week. It's almost like the election over and it's safe for the media to let Republicans talk again.

Morning AB,all.
Remember what that famous NYC sage Yogi said. “It's not ovah until it's ovah.”
Maybe he was right who knows. Anyway the Manchurian quest of who is this A-holll continues. Here:

I cannot watch them Alas - too many orgasims for Obama going on. I was back in upstate NY for a funeral last weekend, and the local paper had color centerfolds of Obama, his staff, and Michelle to pull out of the newspaper.

I think the media will be asking them “What went wrong”? I have never seen the media try to destroy anyone with the thrills they did this year.

The Dem rats are excellent con men but Capt. Zero is their greatest accomplishment yet,he will loot anyone with any resources for 4-8 years while slowly installing at least 300 new socialist judges,destroying free market capitalism and incrementally creating a Marxist/Socialist paradise.

His small army of volunteers will carry out his every whim and by the time the nation figures out what is going on it will be almost too late.

If you are a conservative American and care about the country it is time to stand up and be counted.

I understand completely. Picked up my local rag for the Sunday store ads and their front cover is a glorification of the One. Photo like yours.

Luckily, I have a full morning of Mass (Church) and will glorify Him rather than this imposter.

The Republicans should all bring mirrors and if asked, hold them up so Tom, Bob, Stephie, Chris and Wolf can all see the real reason. Of course, that is if they don’t hiss and shrink at seeing their own reflections!

First, recall all the “smoking guns” which were certain to drive Clinton out of office.

Then remember Yogi also said, “This is like deja vu all over again.”

Not all of them would see a reflection in the mirror - I remember that part of the movie. Empty suits would also just see the wall behind them in the mirror.

Morning everyone,

This could be a different case since Alan Keyes has standing as a candidate. That was the out taken before that is overcome with this. Could be interesting, to say the least.

I don’t know, Morgan. All Obama has to say to a court is, “Aside from the birth certificate I showed you, I have no other proof that I was born in the United States. I still make the claim that I was. If you can not find any evidence showing otherwise, I ask for summary judgement.”

I’d say it would be very difficult for Dr Keyes to proceed after that. A court (even the Supremes) is not going to second guess the president-elect, sadly.

MTP; Brokaw grilling Sen. Levin (D-Mich) and R-Sen Shelby from Alabama, pro v. con. None of the 3 cite union contracts specifically...even Shelby only obliquely mentions it. The greater issue seems to be the type of cars they build, rather than how much it costs to build ‘em.

You’re probably right, AB, but I hope the court will at least review the case for future candidates.

I personally don’t think much will come of this, but I’ve been wrong enough to never say never.

Except that he said in one of his books that he “found his birth certificate folded among some things......”

That is the birth certificate that needs to be made public. The one that is sealed in HI. Not too much to ask, right?

On Fox, Pawlenty just stated that Minnesota has a history of fair elections, blah blah blah, —— which sounded very much like a concession speech and a welcome Senator Al Franken speech to me.

Not too much to ask, right?

Yes, noot too much. Like Clinton's medical records, or Kerry's military records. We'll never see them.

Let's focus our energies on proving Obama is bad for America, becuase the ideals and the policies of the dems and media are wrong.

At the same time, let's start to purge the milque toast, chamber of commerce RINOs out of OUR party.

We have a lot of work to do.

My focus is on the driveby's. I blame them for constantly barraging us with bias--the anti-Palin rants and attacks, the coddling of McCain UNTIL he became "our" (spit) nominee, and the never-ceasing dismissal of good ole fashion middle American values while promoting the values of New York/Hollywood/San Fransisco neo-intellectualism and cynicism over-anything-good-about-America.

Obama benefitted by that and therefore won the election with their overt and tacit help. How much, percentage-wise of the electorate, does this pormotion bring to the dems?

5%? 10%? 15%?

Factor in those discouraged enough to stay home, too. That truly has been our Achilles heel these past two national elections.

See my # 41. Pawlenty needs to go. He’s useless in the clutch. What NON-leadership!!!!

Franken’s ascendary to the Senate gives the dems 60 current seats, a fillibuster-proof super majority. Woe is us! We should be fighting this tooth and nail for this reason alone! Not to mention everyone can see the obvious cheating to obtain it. All Pawlenty needs to do is simply call in a heavy law enforcement all out action.

“Not too much to ask, right?”

Liberal Dems think that only us FR types are interested in things like this.

And to make sure of that...they offer shiny little worthless trinkets like “tax cuts for 95% of the people”

Very likely here,and that is also probably why Greg Craig Greg,Craig Graig is coming aboard. No one can twist the judicial system any better than this slime ball.

Rumors are that Hawaiian officials have already produced a BC that they will proffer. What really happened is irrelevant,the true BC will never see the light of day, where he was born is also irrelevant only what will pass DBM muster.
