As always, soliciting FReeper comments, observations, and opinions.

I was at a laundromat this morning when Meet the Press was on with the Hildebeast. I didn't have to say anything negative about her--all the other patrons had a few choice words about their dislike for her (and this was in Maine, too!).

Carl Levin, maroon, just said Saddam would be more likely to fold if he knows the whole world is after him......how do people like this get elected

There is no diffenence between the world or the US....it will be us that does the work......

Did anyone notice that This Week Without David Brinkley decided to put little Georgie Stuffingenvelopes on a chair that was about three inches higher than the three others? Georgie was made to look bigger than life.

He could actually aquire some stature if he would fess up about his remarks about Flight 800 being a bombing......but, he won't.....because he's just another liberal tool punk. Anyhow, maybe next week they'll have him on a step-ladder to look down on the others. What a crowd!

FWIW, by my count from the transcript, The Hildebeaste said, "You know," 36 times.

And the pacing of the "You knows" is interesting. She seemed to say it most often when she was talking about campaigning. Here's an example:

You know, I’ve been up to Ft. Drum, you know, you know, in upstate New York. I’ve shaken hands with the young men and women who wear our uniform, many of whom have just gotten back from Afghanistan.
