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

Timmy Russert interviews Herman Munster alert!

[Miss Marple]

Well, let's see if Herman can make a better impression that John Edwards did.

[mewzilla]

I'm not sure that interviewing is the word I'd use. But the phrase I'm thinking of can't be used on a G-rated forum.

And I wonder if anyone will ask about the Iraqis being tipped off by the UN prior to yesterday's inspection.

[doosee]

Looks like Terry McCauliff is MIA lately. Could his big mouth really be zipped shut for a while? Also, Lieberman, McCain, and Gore take a weekend off. Where are these losers hiding?

[Oldeconomybuyer]

MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Sen. John F. Kerry (D-MA).

Ketchup Boy gets a full hour to announce his 2004 Presidential exploratory committee? ... That can only mean  his NY Times endorsement will be announced next week.

[ErnBatavia]

Where are these losers hiding?

I don't know about the others, but Gore is hiding out at around number 2500 on the best seller list. You'd think he'd be out trying to pimp his new book....

[Dog]

Ketchup boy!!!!

ROFL!

[MeekOneGOP]

Timmy Russert interviews Herman Munster alert!

Which Herman Munster?

[MeekOneGOP]

Speakin' of Obstruction Boy...

[retiredtexan]

Meet the depressed democraps will be a waste of time and wear and tear on the tv.

[Senator Goldwater]

Why George W Bush would hire on George Mitchell to the Kissinger committee is beyond me, especially after the four years his father dealt with Mitchell on the Hill.

[McGruff]

Tony Snow discussing a very important topic shoulder fired missiles and commercial airplanes. If one of these brings down a commercial airliner it will be the final nail in the coffin of the airline industry (my opinion).

[mewzilla]

Kerry was talking about helping middle class families who have to pay for things like healthcare et al. But the seantor neglected to mention another big bite on our wallets: our taxes. Want to help us make ends meet, Senator? Give us back our money.

[mafree]

I notice that when Ketchup Boy (LOL!!) was talking about security that personal and national security were mentioned last. The other kinds of security mentioned before those two are the DNC's wish list. If this guy gets in hold your wallets!

[SwatTeam]

The President didn't pick George Mitchell. The democrats did. That is part of the agreement.

[YaYa123]

Tim Gives Kerry The Official Nod

But I'm surprised only because it happens before Gore announces he won't run. I would have thought Russert would stick to the game plan, but with Gore's book ranked in sales at #1,248, I guess delaying the inevitable didn't make much sense.

(Remember, I said all along John F. "I've got a military record" Kerry, would be the only democrat to go up against Commander In Chief Bush in 2004.)

[Miss Marple]

The democrats get to name people to the committee. President Bush had no say in the Rat hires.

[Alas Babylon!]

Now put up a picture of John Kerry and Herman Munster. You'll quickly see the resemblance!

[McGruff]

Tony Snow brought up that Sen. Ketchup stated on another show today that Kissinger and Mitchell should disclose any ties with organizations that may be a part of their investigation.

Seems unusual that he would quote a competitor’s show.

[boomop1]

Mitchlell chuckled at the NY Slimes querying whether he would be unbiased in dealing with some of his clients who may be investigated like the NY Slimes doubting his veracity LOL...
