Democratic congressional candidate Mike Dickinson recently promised to wage “war” on the NRA, Tea Party and Fox News. On Thursday, he was confronted by Greta Van Susteren in a tense exchange that ended with an embarrassing admission.

Then Van Susteren dropped the hammer by exposing a lie Dickinson once told about being CEO of a company.

“That’s really bad to portray yourself not as who you are, right?” Van Susteren began, knowing exactly where she was going. She then read a letter Dickinson sent to a Virginia newspaper in which he falsely claimed to be the CEO of Mid-Atlantic Show Clubs, a cluster of strip clubs.

I certainly agree with your comments at post #18. Excellent observations there, especially about O'Reilly.

Nowadays I listen to bit of Greta, then I pop in an Andy Griffith DVD.

Is adding the /s suffix really necessary every time? /s

Now, now. Not everyone is as blessed as you & I are.

“Saw it...it was most excellent!”

Yeah, me too! Thought I was watching a rerun of Austin Powers and this guy was “Fat Bastard.”
