"Who's watching this circle-jerk on MTP???"

Not me. I turned it off as Timmy quoted the Newsweek Poll

[jrlc]

Nobody's watching MTP -- except for the LIMOUSINE LIBERALS in the Beltway -- like John Kerry. The news from the show -- which nobody will report -- is that McCain said he would VOTE FOR BUSH. LIMOUSINE LIBERALS.

[Hand em their arse]

YOu're right, nobody will ever report that, however, did you notice McCain actually didn't come right out and say he would. I'm becoming such a cynic of some of those in our own party, I'm watching how even they answer questions.

Russert: Will you vote for President Bush

McCain: I support President Bush and continue to do so...


Why can we not answer a question with and actual answer to THAT question???

[maica]

Speaking of eyes glazing over, anybody ever watch the folks that Kerry's speaking to. Nobody cracks a smile or a grin, they all look "dead." Compare this to pictures of Bush speaking, where folks are smiling and it's a stark contrast.

Here is a little Easter present for the stalwarts who watch and comment on these depressing Sunday morning shows.

Hint - the musical background is Hail to the Chief

I usually do not watch the weekend bunch either. I just had the TV on to get ready for FNS. Juliette DID ask about the Aug 7 memo. Then the time ran out.

[Pharmer]

OK Its over. Bush is toast. He's going to lose big as proclaimed by Timmy's panel and the Newsweek poll. Wake me when Kerry is inaugurated...ZZZZ.

[jrlc]

MTP was a liberal LOVE-IN for John Kerry. Guess NBC doesn't care about being "fair and balanced" Maybe NBC ought to just register as surrogates of the DNC.

[jrlc]

Oh, I forgot, I though Timmy on MTP was extreme left, pro-Kerry -- even worse is Chrissy Maththews -- is there no end to these LIMOUSINE LIBERALS of the BELTWAY?

[McGavin999]

Tim's panel was positively embarrassing to watch. When a network has comentators who have obviously not done their homework that network is in trouble. When the viewers are more informed then the pundits the show is useless.

I'm not even going to bother to watch Russert anymore. If I want dumb, I'll watch Sponge Bob.

[mathluv]

That is one of the reasons I don't watch or tape MTP anymore.

What mainstream press outlet ISN'T a surrogate of the DNC?

[Pharmer]

"If I want dumb, I'll watch Sponge Bob"

Hey!!! I like Sponge Bob!!!

[McGavin999]

Well, he probably IS more politically astute than the group Russert had on.

[TomGuy]

This is worth reading:

Bush Failed to Stop al Qaeda During Clinton Years

lol

[McGavin999]

They should just all put on Vote For Kerry buttons and make it official.

[Miss Marple]

Well, I find SpongeBob to be an excellent commentary on our times. LOL!

I will have to read the rest of this later, as we are off to Easter brunch.

Christ is risen, indeed!
A blessed Easter to all!

[ride the whirlwind]

President Bush's taped remarks from Fort Hood coming up on Fox soon.

[Carolinamom]

President Bush is w/our troops at Fort Hood, plans to visit wounded later. Where is Kerry, and is he taking communion today?

[unixfox]

Richard Ben-Veniste running for Attorney General under JFKerry administration!

Yep, just another DICK!!

[unixfox]

Russert: Will you vote for President Bush

McCain: I support President Bush and continue to do so...

Why can we not answer a question with and actual answer to THAT question???

If McCain had ANY balls he would have asked Russert if he was voting for Kerry. What a chicken sh!t.
