I have a prediction.......and a sinking feeling
Every since this Imus fiasco,MSRNC has had Armstrong Williams on.It's like he's already the co-host,he pretty much takes over the show (Hardball). If this happens I will be outraged. Another conservative Bu$h White House hack we DO NOT need. Before anyone gets their panties in a wad, NO this is NOT about the color of his skin. It's about being another rightwingnut water carrier for the little bu$h kid and his nazis.

4. Is he the one fired for Plagerism...taking Repug Talking Points?
Yeah...I have your same "feeling." He's being "Rehabilitated" by MSNBC so they can slip a RW African-American into Imus Slot and claim that his "spew" is better than Imus? And! after all...he's an African-American and we've done "Atonement" and no one on the "LEFT" will go against a Black Man hosting Imus Spot.

:scared:

5. EXACTLY!
He will probably take Imus's place. 3 hours a day whoring for bushie and his gang of thugs,and no one will dare say anything because Armstrong and MSRNC will play the race card to the hilt! :puke:

10. Thanks for that link to "refresh" our memories. Yeah...Rehab is good for some!
Get into trouble ...lie low...and your media buddies pick you up and MOVE YOU ON!

How many are rotting in prison because of minor felonies that would wish they had an "Angel" who would give THEM A SECOND Chance!

Disgusting!

8. Yep. That's essential reading, imho.

Of particular interest to me is Judge Larry Silberman ... especially considering the FISA warrants (and lack of same).

9. I do believe that he is interviewing for the job with all his appearances
on MSNBC. I really hope they don't consider him. It was funny the first time he was included on a panel with Craig Crawford. When David Gregory announced his name Crawford made a funny look and rolled his eyes. I don't think Crawford realized that was face, in the box, was on the screen.

13. I've been waiting on someone to bring it up
He was on Hardball tonight saying that Jackson and Sharpton have no right being involved in the Imus mess because of the skeletons in their closets. The same can be said of him.
