Thanks for posting this. I turned it on to hear lanny tell Gretchen to change her tease. she rebuffed him quite well I thought, but I didn’t know what the tease was.

I keep watching Fox and Friends because there is no better alternative, and it seems they get more things right than other morning shows. But you are right, Gretchen does not seem to be the sharpest pencil in the box. I have noticed several times that she doesn’t understand things correctly, points out things that are wrong or insignificant and clings to them. She does not seem to have a quick sense of humor and simply seems dim-witted and out-classed. I wouldn’t say I can’t stand her, but I agree with others, E.D. was much better, which is why she probably has her own show on now. As far as pretty - who cares, as long as a person does a good job.

Although I would not call her a twit, she was out of her league this morning.

That's the problem...she's out of her league most mornings. I can't even figure out what league she's in.

See post #22...that's her to a T.

As it stands now, it is clear that the woman did have insurance, that the hospital she went to was close by, that she was not refused care, and that the hospital did not require her to post cash up front for treatment.

Hillary Clinton told a pack of lies about Trina Bachtel.

The enormous deputy sherriff (what are the fitness requirements for the Meigs County sherriff's office?) is now saying that he isn't sure of all the details, that it was probably a different hospital than the one everyone else is assuming, and generally humiliating himself with further obfuscation.

Basically, Hillary Clinton repeated a tall tale she heard on the campaign trail as hard facts that require sweeping and expensive changes in federal and American society.

Trina Bachtel's parents are furious, claiming - quite rightly - that Hillary Clinton portrayed their daughter, who was a gainfully employed citizen with a managerial position and benefits, as some kind of impoverished, deadbeat welfare case.

Hillary Clinton is maintaining that President Bush "lied us into war" because of his belief in highly credible information supplied by British intelligence.

Is Hillary Clinton lying us into socialized medicine because of her belief in a rumor she heard from some random sherriff's deputy in Ohio?

One thing is very puzzling about this and the fact that they got the info from the sheriff... I thought we had all this wonderful privacy stuff from HIPPA and Hillery. I thought all our information was private and couldn’t be handed out like MSM candy to be used at will.

I agree. Lanny went to school with Pres. Bush, IIRC, and has always liked him, so he never descended to the nastiness regarding the president characteristic of his fellow dems. That alone made him more congenial. Plus, I think he is a lot fairer-minded than a lot of his associates. So if he’s unraveling, then I think you’re right that it’s an indication of what’s happening to the Hillary campaign.

The tone the last couple of weeks from liberals in general is angry and negative. Even more than normal. The Obamaites and Hilterites realize that a right of center country just is’nt ready for str8 up socialism. The national polls right now show both candidates taking a whacking in the national election. My Mother a FDR democrat in whispered tones says she realizes that Obama is their nominess and not 1 of her racist New York\New Jersey yentas will ever vote in her words..”For that colored guy”. McCain looks like a 40-45 state winner. An over by 10pm type election.

Holman's "first hand" account ...

http://www.athensmessenger.com/main.asp?SectionID=1&SubSectionID=273&ArticleID=9511

However, contacted by The Messenger, Holman claimed the hospital he was referring to when he spoke to Clinton wasn’t O’Bleness, nor an affiliate.

Holman said when he spoke to Clinton, he never mentioned the name of the hospital that allegedly denied the woman care, nor did he mention the woman by name.

Holman, a friend of an uncle of the woman, said his understanding from talking to the family is that she initially went to a hospital other than O’Bleness, where she was asked to pay $100, possibly because she owed money.

“The family thinks that whatever hospital she (initially) went to, she had a bill and couldn’t go there,” Holman said. He said he believes the woman went to O’Bleness after she was turned away from that other hospital.

Holman said that other hospital could have been “anywhere in Ohio and West Virginia.”

Holman said his understanding is that the family believed that if the first hospital the woman went to had treated her, something more could have been done for her. He said he did not accuse O’Bleness of any wrongdoing.

On the other hand, Holman said, Clinton is not necessarily lying either. However, he said, he did not think when he told the story to Clinton that it would get so much attention and that he thinks the whole issue has been “overblown.”

I stopped watching it mostly since ED WENT
brian kilmeade is clearly going for Obama

when they were pointing out some facts about oabma is left the stage, just got up and walked out in a childish huff, the they had a guest I think his name is bernie goldwater and when he pointed out the lies Obama had been saying Kilmeade tried to switch it to clinton but bernie got back on track so kilmeade got bernie up and his book and said come on sign this for me ,
This to get him off the stage

doocy is the only one who keeps the show going I think and Alison.

Last week not one Obama negative story unlike clinton was in a bad light every day

The show needs E.D. back on and it needs to point out about Obama who is the biggest security threat this country faces.
What with his connections to a terrorist at he weather undergound, his lies, his racist pastor, his far left radical friends, black panthers, nation of islam

All those would probably be invited to the white house and how many would use obama to get classified papers from the CIA, and FBI

I bet Obama can’t wait to get his hands on them and I bet our enemies nation al and international will be loving an Obama presidency

Wish someone would ask Beckel how the hooker was.

agree the show went down after she left, brian kilmeade is clearly an obama supporter , gretchen is clearly clueless.
the show is not what it used to be and maybe they should be a bit more factual about obama as kilmeade never lets anyone say anything negative about obama

EXACTLY! i was wondering if anyone else was galled by them asking reprobates like Beckel and Dick MOrris about Spitzers peccadilloes when they were in the same dang boat not so long ago. they ask them with a straight face and NEVER mention their own scandals. it irks me.

think larry was right, she never reported the story correctly and you would never see kilmeade say anything negative about obama, he’s walked off stage, he’s dragged bernie goldwater off the stage all because obama was said to be lying and doesn’t want to hear aboutn his darling in a negative light

get E.D. back and I’;ll watch it more

every day last week clinton was put in a negative light, OK but what about obama, it was never mentioned once in a negative light off fox and friends.

I would like the media to do their work and report just how much obama is dangerous to this country because of his views and connections
