Did you ever read the Washington Post interview with Kerry and Theresa Heinze? It was a freaking horror show.
The woman humiliated Kerry, made fun of his "Vietnam Flashbacks", compared him to her dead husband (whom she says she still "adores"), and talked about their collective wealth as "my money!"

Well that will explain why Timmy made the comment about her being very opinionated .. LOL

[Mo1]

On Fox News Sunday Morra Lieson and Juan Williams disclose that yes Gore is right. Fox News is a biased organization in cahoots with Rush Limbaugh and Right Wing extremists

If Fox News is .. then WHY are THEY working there???

It would seem to me that these Liberal Folks ONLY believe in controlled media that falls in the line of the DNC talking points

Hmmmm ... what ever happen to Freedom of Speech .. what are those on the right not allowed it???

[Inkie]

At least we all know where Fox is coming from. Plus they regularly have liberals on there, like "More-a Lies-on" and Juan Williams and others. Clinton-loving Geraldo and Greta have their own shows for goodness sake! The day you have any conservative having his/her own show on NPR will be the day hell freezes over!

[mewzilla]

Timmy's comparisons of Kerry's and Kennedy's recent voting records, they've voted the same 100% of the time, was pretty telling. The only diff I can see between Teddy and Kerry is that we don't know what Kerry's hiding yet. Somehow I don't think a voting public that just took the Dems to the woodshed is going to be any happier with Kerry for a choice.

[Mo1]

Says Bush says in his speech on Sept 15, Americans are peaceful people, but fierce when stirred to anger. Chris says, "Bush Gets It." I think Chris has a grudging respect for GWB. Good show, all the way around.

Chris Mathews said that????

Isn't Chris the same guy that calls the President a "war hawk" and bashes him every chance he can??

[Mo1]

Kerry: "Over a 100 people have been released from death row in the last year based on DNA evidence that they weren't guilty".
Over a 100?!! I'd like to see the list...a huge exaggeration, I believe.

Yea but then he went on to say .. some these people were given 15-20 year sentences

he was ALL over the place with his comments and mixing them in one bowl

[TheRedSoxWinThePennant]

I am not that advanced with a computer but I am sure someone here at freerepublic is already working on it.

on a side note wait till algore is on tv next week telling the world he invented ketchup to blunt the early start by kerry

[cactusSharp]

ditto your take on Pat,but this day,Georgie met
a man on a mission

[hinckley buzzard]

I think the democrats are stumbling around for a variety of reasons this post-election season.

For the long run I believe they are making a major miscalculation in thinking that they can resurrect the oldtime religion just by buffing up the right candidate.

Kerry's only claim to fame is his military time in VietNam and it will be tainted by his behavior as an anti-war protestor afterwards, and his anti-Gulf War votes in the Senate.

Nobody wants to have that ugly past regurgitated when we have a new and different and more dangerous war on our hands. But Kerry is fixated on it and will bring it up in any context, any chance he gets. Bad idea. Go Democraps, knock yourselves out (again).

[Mo1]

Poor Georgie couldn't get the answers he wanted and he couldn't stump Pat on anything.

I noticed this also .. IMO keep an eye on the left with this topic .. I get the strange feeling the left is going to start attacking the bible belt AGAIN ..

[bimbo]

On This Week, Daniel Benjamin, a Clinton Official, admitted that TWA 800 was the impetus for the Gore Commission looking at airliner protection from misslies. I took that as an admission that 1) TWA 800 was indeed shot down, and 2) the Clinton Administration knew it.

[nadlo]

I'd love to read thar article. any chance of an easy link?

[B.Bumbleberry]

Not just a lesson to governments. Remember the interviews with several Pakistani teens just before we got serious in Afgh.? They were wearing Bin Laden T-shirts and hoping to someday marry someone like him. The fall of the Talis I think one day will be almost as epoch making an event as the 6-day war. And the fall of Iraq will cement the lesson.

[Miss Marple]

I have always believed it was. I don't follow those threads on it much because I am not an engineer or a missile expert. It just made the most sense to me.

Now, supposing it comes out that it WAS shot down and that the Clinton administration hid this from everyone. That will certainly be an interesting brouhaha.

[Mo1]

Somehow I don't think a voting public that just took the Dems to the woodshed is going to be any happier with Kerry for a choice

I wouldn't rule Kerry out to fast .. I was talking with my liberal sister and she said she would vote for Kerry

I asked her why .. but she didn't have a very good answer .. she rambled something about him being a nice guy and a war vet ..

[RoseofTexas]

I JUST have to CHIME :) in on the Ketchup Boy...BAWAHAHHAHAHHHAHA!! Ketchup boy...ROTFLMAOx2!!!

[Mo1]

I took that as an admission that 1) TWA 800 was indeed shot down, and 2) the Clinton Administration knew it.

I'm not an expert .. but I will say I never did buy the line the Clinton Administration gave for it crashing

[Miss Marple]

Yes, but your sister would probably vote for any Rat that managed to get the nomination. The big question is this: can he draw from the center? I don't think so, but I have been wrong once or twice in my lifetime. LOL!

[Brasil]

Dr. Kissenger had a lot of trouble expressing himself today, (unlike at the Robert Bartley dinner, on C- span last night, when he was witty and clever) and ultrapartison George Mitchell, of course, will blame the 9-11 attacts on #41 and #43. I have a bad feeling about this commission.
