Sunday Morning Talk Show Thread ping list. Let me know if you want on or off the list!
Thread is up.
Another boring Sunday. RINOs and Obamabots...
Hi there AB! Thanks for the thread and a happy VJ (Van Jones) Day!
Well Newt is usually interesting, Giuliani and/or Ford may talk about running for office, and Pence and sometimes Pawlenty can be pretty good. No McCain or Graham at least.
Thanks for pinging me...as always yours is the first thread I check Sunday...Looks like you have become part of my Sunday AM, coffee, paper, ritual. ha.
and....HAPPY VJ (VAN JONES OUT!) DAY!
This has to be the C or D list of guests, because of the holiday weekend.
Tim Pawlenty on CNN is probably the only person with something new to say.
I have been spending time watching very old videotapes - before Fox News was on air - many of the cast of pundits of those days are still on air, and more disconnected from real life than ever.
You got that right. I’ve been watching the Sunday shows since I was a child, long before cable tv!
I also watched PBS—Washington Week in Review, Louis Ruckheyser’s Wall Street Week, and even remember watching the very first McLaughlin Group. Jack Germon and Eleanor Clift. Just as wrong and stupid then as now.
My father watched all the Sunday Talk shows when I was child. Like you, I grew up on them.
Me too- weaned on all those shows.
The best though, was my grandmother forcing me to watch Willima F Buckley and John Kenneth Galbraith debate on Firing Line. I tried really hard to worm my way out of it- but she wasn’t someone you said no to:) It was years before I confessed to her that I was grateful!
Axelrod might be interesting today- he’ll be covering for Van Jones.
I’m sure the shows will be wall-to-wall coverage of Van Jones being thrown under the bus.
N O T!
They are exactly the shows that my mother taped and saved!
Another boring Sunday. RINOs and Obamabots
Anything to get the Barak Eddie Hussein Haskel Obama Health Care bill across the finish line
Don’t know when these shows were taped. They may all be yesterday’s news.
Morning AB and everyone. I’ll be lurking for the most part but it’s a glorious day with Van Jones resigning. Only FOX covered his radicalism so I’m sure something will be said there. I wonder if any other network will finally recognize the situation now, since they ignored it this whole time?
Good to see you here NN, usually you are too busy with the Hurricane threads this time of year, but we don’t even have a tropical depression in the Atlantic.
Happy VJ Day to all !! Glenn Beck is the BEST !!
One down .....many more Czars to go including King Czar Obama !!
Gregory better ask Axelrod about VJ this morning ....I want to know how a VJ could happen !!
Education Secretary Arne Duncan
I wonder if they will ask the BOE and superintendents were bypassed in seting up this speech.
I also am curious about WHO wrote up the initail proposed follow up discussion with the children.
Sunday morning for me was Berie the Bunyup.
Good heavens, they’ve got a scientist on FOX News channel proposing a manned mission to Mars — a one-way mission!
Morning AB, ALL...
...am singing at the church this morning, yes it’s that time of year again!
Will sing that the Lamestream media has finally been brought down. Yes it’s been falling free-fall but this Van Jones story is the turning point. For the so-called “BIG MEDIA” could NOT keep the story of a Communist burrowed and comfortable in this president’s administration down.
From now on, Fox, Blogs, talk radio and our own fine citizen selves can expose that which the NY Times and WAPO kept hidden.
I ask before I sing so you all might think on it...WHERE THE HELL WERE THE REPUBLICANS??????
I got a feeling he was talking to a lot of the folks at FR.
Yikes! Your tagline is going to be my earworm today.
Good morning, Alas!
To them God has chosen to make known amonng the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the HOPE of glory.
The biggest story in the last 20 yrs is the Tea Party Revolution. We’re witnessing the largest crowds protesting the gummit we have seen since Vietnam. The difference w/these protests is they are not organized and financed by the communist Party and these are people that work and pay the taxes. This was started by a reporter in Chicago just mentioning the Boston Tea Parties and the movement was begun. This movement has stirred the hearts and minds of America and is being witnessed around the World as they silently cheer the courage and passion of true patriots. This is the biggest story in the last 40 yrs.
When President George W Bush was President if a half dozen deadbeats showed up for a protest there would instantly be over 100 protesters. Never mind that 90 of them were like minded reporters and cameramen, the numbers of the protesters were always inflated in their size. The reporters would breathlessly report as they used the protesters as props for their pre-written stories. Now to underline their corruption they completely ignore the biggest story of this century due to the politics of a Country in revolt from its citizens. The last thing that the Establishmedia can comprehend is that real people would take to the streets protesting their world view.
Not only are they a disgrace to journalists throughout histoir like Ben Franklin, they are a disgrace to the human race. How does anybody who draws a paycheck to record history dare to ignore the biggest revolution in the last 60 yrs? The reason they are a disgrace is that this is Freedom Loving Americans fighting against the tyranny their corrupt Establishment is trying to enslave us with. Every member of PravdABDNC should look in the mirror and ask themselves if this is what they worked their entire careers to do? Do they continue to allow FOX to record history and do they continue to be the Bernie Madoffs’ of journalism. Or do they do they do their jobs and become curious about the corruption that surrounds them? Either way, the anti-establishmedia is exposing it.
We are the Revolutionary Army of the 2000s protesting the corrupt Establishment using cyber-printing presses. The Left considers themselves anti-establishment since they always were fighting against evil capitalists. They have been doing it so long and have become ingrained in so many areas of society that they are now what they have fought against. So much so that they have corrupted themselves to hide the very fact that is who they are. They control the schools, gummit, administration, bureaucracy, media and news outlets. We are the outsiders who simply work and pay taxes and who are pointing out their corruption and incompetence in our barely organized yet passionately attended Tea Parties. We are the Minutemen of Truth and Freedom.
Not only has the Rallies and especially the Tea Party Express, exposed the absolute corruption of the news industry it shows the crassness of the Stalinist left. Reporters who are supposed to document histoir are attempting to unwrite the most amazing spontaneous combustion they have witnessed, perhaps ever. The same people who were using our brave soldiers coffins as Soap Boxes and Stage Props while bringing every plastic Starlet from SoddomWood extolling their pacifity, now protests are unseemly, and verboten. Really, how hard is it to be a pacifist? Oh gee, you don’t like war, how heroic! Well get used to Conservative Activism cause this is 1776 and there is a wildfire burning across America bringing Freedom.
The TP Express has 2 busses hop scotching America, driving patriots into the streets for peaceful demonstrations. How simple a protest could you ever imagine and the people are reacting. Not the Jesse Jackmail rent-a-mobs but real rebellion. It is growing as it gets closer to the East Coast while the passion of true Americans are touched. These are not masked street people but people who never protested in their lives willing to keep their Freedom over a lifetime of indentured slavery. These people represent millions of silent Americans who don’t take that stand but are willing to support them w/their votes. This is something that the Stalinists in the DNC and WH were not expecting and have no method of stopping. America isn’t Kent State yet so their army of Thugs at Acorn are not sure they want to enter this fray.
The Tea Parties has wakened much of America. While walking in our parade on July 4th you noticed that the people would look at us and our signs dumbfounded. Then as they read them about, out of control spending, they would smile and then applaud. It takes a minute for those of us in the Silent Majority to understand that it is ok to protest the gummit. We are not the type to protest it until we see something that is so outrageous that we will then change our minds to realize that it is ok to protest. That is where America is right now as the people are beginning to take a stand against an out of control congress and President.
This movement is beginning to sweep across this land like those Wildfires in the LA hills. This fire is burning bright as it destroys the lies of liberalism. As this fire grows, it won’t matter how many tankers of ACORN retard-ents, the fire will grow and burn brighter til the rocks melt into molten Bronze that form into Lady Liberty w/her Torch raising high, clutching her Bible above this scorching inferno.
Pray for the Tea Party Express
Hello, Alas Babylon!
I would like to be added to the ping list please, if possible.
Thank you!
Cheers,
save
Some credit goes to Pence, too.
Me too.
Many times before 1979, I lived in small rural towns where I could only pick up two to four TV stations.
Ruckheyser was one of the regulars I watched; McLaughlin Group for a laugh.
Van Jones is actually the 2nd to fall. Car Czar Steven Rattner went a couple mos ago on corruption investigations.
Pray for America
Is he volunteering?
I like Byron, and the bloggers did do their googling in this case.
A day without McC and Linseed is a good day!!!!
We deserve at least one weekend without the clowns.
I have used that tag line ever since.
Just hoping Newt does not do anything stupid. He can be brilliant but he can also be out of this world.
Heh.
Too true about Newt.
Rush Limbaugh made an interesting observation when he called in to Beck’s FoxNews program Thursday:
He said that most of the Tea Party types, which include Dems, Pubbies and Independents, are out because of their concern for the Nation. Most of the lib-type troublemakers are out because they are being paid to be there and make trouble.
“RINOs and Obamabots”
Which one’s Newt? Really, I’m asking
No. In his defense he is a little old for it. But he suggests that there would be volunteers. To be clearer, he is proposing a colonization mission, not a suicide mission.
Fox News Sunday —
THE VJ RESIGNATION - up front !!
“On the eve of historic fights for health care and clean energy, opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me,” Jones said in his resignation statement. “They are using lies and distortions to distract and divide.”
Axe Rod on MTP and no mention of VJ yet.
I’m betting it’s not mentioned for a bit yet, if at all.
Healthcare. Healthcare. Healthcare.
Wallace is interviewing Newt, Alexander, Dean, and Podesta simultaneously. This is a very bad format.
Howard Dean - Polls show the public wants a public option. Insurance companies have been “terrible” to the insured and doctors.
Huh?
Maybe funded with a little Medicare cost savings? Some ‘volunteers’ with expensive, slow-growing cancers?
Ya notice not one broken window or any violence on our side? Rather than tear gas the cops get tired of having their hands shook.
Pray for the Tea Party Express
Does not sound like the best recruits to found a successful colony!
