Thx. I do miss my great audience.

No. I am still at one of the wars and expect to be at my current pos for some time. In the last 17 months I’ve been in 3 war zones on two continents (Asia and Africa) and have only been killed a couple of times. I hope to be home on leave late this spring for the birth of our first grandchild and our 27th wedding anniversary.

"I think Fox News Channel should go back to news and start another channel for news-talk."

Which is why I now watch Fox Business instead. If you don't get it call your cable company and DEMAND it!

"Time to take down Comcast before they get a foothold. Anyone who doesn't know what's coming down is not paying attention. And everyone should prepare for the SOTU next week. 2011 will be the year of the takeover. No one left to fight them. And I mean fight them--not faxes, emails and speeches, ad nauseum. Keith was THE major voice. RM is next."-DU poster

Ahahahaha!

"I could just cry. My life has been turned upside down the last five months and, bellieve it or not, Keith Olbermann was my quiet refuge of sanity late night...I recorded his show daily. I am outraged at MSNBC (Comcast). No offense to Larry O'Donnell but he will not pull the ratings, imho, that Keith did. I'm afraid I'll regard today as the beginning of the end to free speech. No one gave us news as Keith so faithfully did."-DU poster

Forgetting that moron, Keith Olbermann, MSNBC & CNN need to wise up. I’m not asking them to become “Rush Limbaugh”. What American folks want is the truth in news reporting. It’s called balance in reporting. If they would just give “both sides” equal time to state their case and position, they would attract millions more of viewers across the board. Case in point!!! Do you really think Americans believe POTUS Obama has shifted to the right? Do you really think Americans believe that Bill Daley of “Chicago” and Jeff Immelt of “General Electric” will help private business??? Daley is just a Chicago goon and Immelt is just like Hitler’s “industrialist” Albert Speer. To believe otherwise just proves you are a dummy!!! Americans want and need to real skinny, the truth, the facts, the real thing, the straight scoop, period. Maybe Comcast gets it. We’ll see!!!

RE: “Levin’s “Countdown to NO ratings” meme is proven correct!”

*****************

YES! Whenever I happen to hear the name “Olbermann” I immediately think — ‘countdown to no ratings!’

Will Madcow be next??? .. or that vile Lawrence O’Donnell who is taking the maniacal Olbermann’s time slot?

[ I feel bad for Olbermeinkampf. Twice I made his “Worst” list: once in 1st place and once in 3rd.

OK, one of the above 2 sentences is a lie.

"The worst would be that rabid blowhard ed schultz. "

Knowing Special (Sgt. Schultz) Ed's background and having seen him in person before he got on TV, I find him to be a faux maniac. I believe it's all an act whereas Dobermann seemed to be the real thing.
