1. Did Matt fix PillBoy up with Daryn Kagan?
What a bunch of douchebags.

And to think just 40 or fifty years ago we had Walter Cronkite, Edward R. Murrow, etc.

This country has descended into oblivion

8. I'm not for posting any FR stuff..
Edited on Tue Sep-14-04 10:29 AM by Caliphoto
.. but when a freeper was asked (on that thread) about a comment regarding labelling ALL liberals as "the enemy", and stating that they should not associate with any liberals at all... someone asked this fellow about his own family that may be liberal:

<<To: jmc813
Yes, I have very little to do with family that is left/liberal. I cannot completely disassociate myself with them because it's just not possible (I can't control which functions they are invited to, along with which we are invited) but I don't associate with them any further than being in their presence.
Oh, I might exchange a "Hello", but that's it.

They are enemies of my country. They have sided with a vile, criminal enterprise that goes under the facade of a "political party" and which seeks the destruction of my country.

Why on Earth should I associate with them in any way, family or not?

Anyone on the fence about choosing the Democrats this time around, need to look at these types of comments, and realize what they're associating with by choosing Bush (who has engaged Rush Limbaugh as an "unofficial" advisor to his campaign).

When the same question is posed here at DU, the majority of the comments about conservative family members is that we just don't discuss politics with them, to maintain a good relationship, or that they are family.. and politics don't matter, unless they try to force their ideas on you. The Freeper thinking I saw on that thread was truly frightening, and makes me wonder if that's why my ULTRA right wing father in law has pretty much stopped talking to us... when there is no other apparent reason for it. Hmmmm... he probably posts there!

9. Here's another one:
Matt Lauer playing golf
http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0HFI/is_11_52/ai_79352576
The most celebrated game I've ever played was in the spring of 1998 at the Floridian, Wayne Huizenga's course. Matt Lauer, co-host of the "Today" show, knew Greg Norman and asked him to join us. It was a friendly match, and Greg was a great sport playing with a bunch of average players. Greg, just fooling around, shot 70, two under par. Matt had a 78.

11. You know what I love about Kerry
He doesn't play golf. Actually he might, but at least he doesn't advertise it. Obviously Bush thinks he's gawd's gift to the game, "Now watch this drive". What an ass.

12. Lauer's interview (attack) with KK same as w/Hillary....
I watched a little bit of Lauer attacking Kitty Kelly. All those morning shows don't have anything I want to hear...who gives a shit about what they say. I would like to send a Fok You to Lauer? Can you post his E-mail?

I'm with Kitty Kelly, she made Lauer look like a typical repig mad man. Lauer would have been more credibile if he would have taken the roll of mediator and allowed someone else to confront Kelly. What's going on with all these pretty boy media bladder mouths...they're turning our country into Saudi Arabia.

16. I emailed Air America...let's see if Franken mentions it.
I hope so! We know how much he loves Limpballs! Does his show keep an eye on DU? We could also keep this thread kicked. :kick:
