2. I noticed yesterday that the hostess let a born-again Bush lover...
rant on for about five minutes. You know---George Bush is Jesus come to save us. No facts, no logic, no point but she sat there and let it go on and on and on...

7. There is going to be a democrat on later
Donna Brazille. I hope she cuts loose, but who knows with her. She either knuckles under or just blah, blahs her way through.

20. Sad, but true
It was Lamb's cheerful announcement that a democrat would be on that made me giddy.
:silly:

19. Donna Brazille cut loose? Ha, ha
sorry, but I've always been disappointed in Donna Brazille, I've watched her on CNN many times and she can't even get over on Bay Buchanan. IMO she is ill informed and is too weak in her arguements.

25. The kindest thing to be said about Brazille is that she has nothing
constructive to say.

10. Lamb?
He is the leader of the C-spn pack isn't he? His book notes stuff was ok and some of the other stuff. He is mostly blind to PNAC, wrong doing among Republicans, etc.

24. You Don't Crap Where You Live...
Brian cut his teeth working for Jerry Ford and has never hidden his right wing bias. Look at the constant parading of AEI and Heritage Institute goons who show up on C-SPAN shows. Also Brian won't hestitate to cite right wing rags like the Washington Moonie Times, Boston Hearld and NY Post.

The other hosts are getting just as bad. Many times right wing lies and slander are allowed to go on while Democrats are cut short...especially if it is some criticism of booooosh.

Brian's got a nice little deal going here. He gets the big ticket access to all the drinkie-drinkie parties and gets his calls returned. He makes big time money from your cable bill and doesn't have to have an advertising department to do it. In return, his corporate backers...the cable companies and large corporates, cite C-SPAN as how they're upholding their responsibility for "public access".

26. I love it when a caller talks deep conspiracy bushco stuff
You can see the evil glare in his eyes just before he cuts them off or tells them that they are off topic. Yeah, quite a deal for him being so responsible to the public :rofl: The AEI parade does get tiring.

11. Even just Repukes are not enough.
Brian wants the true believers only. His little elitist soul must be pained this morning; he can't be all that thrilled with Miers.
After this, there's an HOUR with slimeball Cliff May, then Donna Brazile, then more bizarro psychoanalysis from Krauthammer.

Ah, someone just complained about the Jew on the court that Clinton picked. :eyes:

12. Blast Fax Talking Points...
Lets see if Ken Mehlmann and the boys at the RNC are up and running those faxes this morning.

The fun is watching how these goons are chasing themselves around on this stupid nomination. The elephant in the room is this lady's not qualified and there's no way anyone can say she deserves to be seated on the court. This is strictly a love boooosh/don't love boooosh debate.

Screwy thing is that with all the Rove/Plame/Libby news, this is a welcome relief to Brian and his Repugnican friends. This is a lot easier on the stomache than knowing your regime is facing criminal charges and it's getting harder to spin your way out of these messes. Better to play with Harriet and the little circle jerks in right wingdomland...until reality bites and bites hard.

You can hear the sense of dread in these people. I love it!!!

13. Damn!
Black Republican calling in now. I've met a couple of Black Republicans but they were "small business owners" in the *upper* middle class tax bracket. I used to work in retail and enjoyed talking with many people. Not EVER have I met even a middle class person of color who votes Republican. Much less those I've talked with from the Working Class.

MY RATIONALE = When it comes to POWER and STATUS the true color of bigotry is da MEAN GREEN. In general, the more MONEY you have (regardless of gender or race), the more one tends to vote republican. Notable exceptions - but the above statement is, in general, a truism.

22. Was that the caller from Bossier City La?
Edited on Fri Oct-21-05 06:50 AM by notadmblnd
Bossier city for some reason is pronounced Bolger. My husband was from a small town near there called Plain Dealing. He could never explain to me why the city is spelled B o s s i e r instead of the way it is pronounced... but anyway I find it hard to believe that there would be a black repub calling from there unless it is someone being paid by the GOP to do so.

17. Anyone hear the anti-Semitic idiot from Lousiana?
Kept ranting about "that Jewish woman" Clinton appointed to SCOTUS and how Miers is a Christian, so she should be given a chance.

Hey, asshole, her name is Ruth Bader Ginsburg, not "that Jewish woman." God, I can't believe I have to share a country with these people.

23. I Like How They Had repug-only, And When They Changed To Open Lines, . . .
they had "support bu$h," Democrats, and Others.

Clearly implies that ALL repugs support bu$h. I sure as hell wish someone would call in and call them on this. What bullshit!
