The Huffington Post has admitted they posted a doctored video intended to make radio host John Gibson look like a racist: Huffpo Red in the Face Over Fox News Hoax.

Sources tell The Cable that Chas W. Freeman, Jr., the former U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia, will become chairman of the National Intelligence Council, the intelligence community's primary big-think shop and the lead body in producing national intelligence estimates.
For those who are not familiar with the former Ambassador, he is a terrorist apologist and a master of bashing Israel. Freeman is a believer of the false premise that all Muslim terrorism stems from Israel's battle with the Palestinians:
Principal among these is the brutal oppression of the Palestinians by an Israeli occupation that is about to mark its fortieth anniversary and shows no sign of ending.
For its part, Israel no longer even pretends to seek peace with the Palestinians; it strives instead to pacify them.
I'm sure this asshole would blame Israel if Iran nuked NYC.
I was giving 0bama the benefit of the doubt, and wondering if he was just naive, but this shows his agenda is quite anti-Israel.
I cannot help remember the debates between her and Arnold. Of all the possible mispronunciations of the word "focus", she used the the worst one during a gubernatorial debate. It's still funny.
It just amazes me that people are so eager for a scandal, that they will jump on just about anything that remotely looks like a scandal without fact checking it.

Nice of you to be so open minded. Did you miss candidate Obama's coterie of antisemitic best friends & supporters, from Rev. Wright to Khalid Rashidi or Rashid Khalidi the Palestinian spokesperson and Columbia U professor and antisemitic Edward Said chair?

I was really trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, especially after he appointed Rahm Immanuel as chief of staff. But it didn't take long for me to get completely disillusioned.
I think he will surpass Carter as being the worst president for Israel.
IAEA Chief Mohamed ElBaradei says US President Barack Obama has shelved plans to use military action against Iran's nuclear drive.
"I believe that the threat of waging war as a means to curb Iran's nuclear activities is no longer an option," the IAEA director general said on Friday.
ElBaradei, who was speaking in a follow-up to a recently-published report on Tehran's nuclear issue, said that Bush-era plans of striking Iran's nuclear infrastructure no longer exist, even as a last resort.
I don't know how Obama will react, but I know how Ahmadinejad will... he'll be dialing up his techies at Natanz and demanding to know just when all those nuclear weapons will be ready...

I think it's pretty funny... when HuffPo finds it necessary to write a headline to the effect that Eric Holder is Not a Monkey with a Bright Blue Scrotum, isn't it kind of like admitting Eric Holder Really is a Monkey with a Bright Blue Scrotum?
With the CEP of an Iranian missile, they could fire one at Dimona and just as likely hit the Med. Or Cairo. Or Gaza City. Any of which would still be blamed on Israel.

At the very least, it might lead one to ponder whether the liklihood of the attorney general being a monkey with a bright blue scrotum is even an issue worth a Huffpost. Oh, I guess it IS. Snicker.
Not photo shopped. I have these fuckers in my yard and house on a daily basis. My youngest is shit scared of them.
We used to have foxes in our front yard sometimes (looking for unclaimed cats for breakfast, probably) when we lived in the country. No blue scrotum monkeys in Maryland - at least not running around the countryside. :D
Yes in the house. If we leave the widows/doors open(no screens) and fruit on the table/counter the shits will come in and steal. They are scared of male and adult females but will stand tall against kids.
Reading "bright blue scrotum" so many times makes me thing of "The Scrotum" song by Asylum Street Spankers. I would post a YouTube video, but I can't since I'm at work.
The real fun on this HuffPo topic is reading the comments. As Charles has noted before, it's unfair to hold the blog responsible for foolishness that the readers do, but still, it is fun.
The gist? It can be distilled to, "If I want it to be true, it is true."
I'm sure this asshole would blame Israel if Iran nuked NYC.

Keep in mind that the National Intelligence Council was responsible for that phony NIE Report on the Iranian nuclear weapons program.

Who said anything about underestimating the enemy? It's a reasonable accounting based on my tracking of Iranian missile tech and nuclear weapons developments. They've got quite a bit of problems in figuring out how to get their long range missiles to work, let alone mating them to a nuclear warhead. That's not underestimating them.
They could still attempt to bring a nuke in by ground - using shipping containers or the like, or they could use dirty bombs to irradiate areas and use the hysteria of such an attack to render localities uninhabitable.
Still, what is worrisome is that Obama will gut US missile defense capabilities, opening up the opportunity for a rogue regime like Iran to fire at US interests around the world, and we wont be able to stop it. Of course, Obama is doing his best to insure that Iran will continue towards developing nuclear weapons the way he keeps talking the words of appeasement and genuflection.

Hell it took us what? 30 years to get the CEP under a klick. While a Iranian nuke is close, actually making a useful nuke missile is whole other ball game.
Damn, that's pricey. Who was it? FuckUps or Oops (FedEx or UPS)?
FuckUps managed to make more work for me one week. The jerks left my samples on the dock at Memphis all damn weekend long. Had to redo them. All 14 of them.

MOSCOW: Russia has frozen the sale of the state-of-the-art S-300 anti-aircraft missiles to Iran, the Russian newspaper Kommersant reported Wednesday. Iranian Defense Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar was reportedly informed of the decision by his Russian counterpart Anatoly Serdyukov on his visit to Moscow Wednesday.
Russia said the delivery of the systems would be delayed at least until the upcoming meeting between President Dmitry Medvedev and his US counterpart, Barack Obama. Kommersant cited Russia's wish to prevent hindering dialogue with the new US administration.
Military diplomatic sources were quoted by Kommersant as saying that the issue had been the focus of Najjar's visit.
Israel Radio quoted Moscow sources as saying that apart form the gesture to the Americans, Russia also wanted to avoid ruining a $100 million drone purchase from Israel.
Lucinda Williams was great last night at the House of Blues in Dallas.
She was sober, sound great, the place packed, she had new back up.
She said one time new lead guitar guy, younger guy from New York City,
drummer in a cowboy hat from San Fran Calif.
bass guy was young and from Phoenix
second lead guitar/keyboard was from Washington State, Seattle I think,
Lucinda she is from Houston Tx.
more like rock, more like AC-DC at times, drummer had an AC-DC T-shirt on.
great music, high energy,
Luciana writes great lyrics and the band puts up good work..
worth the time and money this if you get a chance
I used to see Lucinda Williams play for free at a club in LA called the Palomino (now long gone). She used to play on Tuesday nights along with people like Dave Alvin, John Doe, and a bunch of other alternative country artists. This was back in the late 1980's and early 90's. She was always great. I knew that she would one day be famous.
I saw her again in NY City a few years ago and she was drunk and slurring. She went on a number of anti-Bush rants. Told the crowd that she was a socialist, and then complained that she couldn't keep playing after midnight because of the "damn Teamsters Union". She was so obnoxious that even some New Yorkers started booing her.

Sounds like fun. All we have around here are coyotes, deer, skunks, raccoons, squirrels, foxes, and beavers. It's the skunks that are the worst though. Bastards either let loose in the neighborhood, or commit suicide crossing a busy street, again letting their scent glands loose. Either way stinks real bad.

Too heavy, a freight forwarding company. What pisses me off is when we built the building we are in I sat in meetings and said we need a loading dock for this type of equipment I was vetoed.

OK. If you never mention a skunk again I will not bitch about monkeys.
Huffpo (or their anonymous contributor) was deflecting attention from the real issue.
The problems the country will have with Eric Holder are not about the color of any part of him, but about the content of his character.
I left it out? Really now? How would they get the nuclear weapon into range for an EMP?
They still have to get the weapon into sufficient size to transmit it to a location.
If it's by missile, that requires a successful missile launch - not assured.
Or it requires them to smuggle the weapon into range of where they want to cause the damage. That's not a sure thing either.
An EMP threat is a possibility, but one that is remote. Besides, if Iran's intentions remain annihilation and genocide of Israel, an EMP isn't what they're going to do with their limited supply of nuclear materials. They'll be using it to destroy Israel and turn Tel Aviv, Jersualem, and all the rest into rubble. Besides, much of the military gear of the US and Israel is hardened against EMP blast, so they would be able to defend, civilian gear far less so (if at all). But as I again note, Iran's intentions aren't merely to damage Israel, but to destroy it.
this is a perfect example why i'm reluctant to believe anything the left tells me.
look at the lying msm. deceptive, manipulative.
nothing abt. truth and honesty.
i know what i believe and what makes sense to me.
and i know what their motive is in distorting reality.
it is so easy to produce fake everything today . ie. false military records abt. pres. bush and all the doctored war photos coming out of the m.e.,
the left will do anything to prevail.
i instinctively discount them.
Aside from the fact that the cartoon had nothing to do with Obama, The real racists are those who see nothing wrong with portraying a President as a chimpanzee if he's white but scream blue murder if he's black.

I was a second generation Monkees fan (the 1986 comeback). Although I quickly scrapped 'em when I discovered The Beatles I still have a soft spot for them. How bizarre that I can say I only got into The Beatles because of The Monkees.
Senator Christopher J. Dodd of Connecticut, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, told Bloomberg Television on Friday that a short-term nationalization might be necessary.
“I don’t welcome that at all, but I could see how it’s possible it may happen,” Mr. Dodd said. “I’m concerned that we may end up having to do that, at least for a short time.”
/seriously, he should lose a finger every time he gets on the TV and spouts [expletive deleted] like this, just in case you were wondering why the markets tanked again today
In town, just garter snakes. You might see larger ones in the fields, but few poisonous ones.
Most common here are black snakes. They can get REALLY big, but you leave them alone, they go away. One day, we were sitting on the porch when a black snake about 7 feet long slithered through the front yard. They also can stop traffic if they cross the road. :D
I also spent about half an hour disentangling one from a bit of mesh he'd got stuck in (he played dead until I finished and moved away, then took off for the woods).
We did find a small rattler under the deck once. Actually, the girls from next door found it. My ex put it in a bucket, and they all trooped off and let it go in the woods.
"Jan Jacobi, in her article "Lincoln Handled Stress the Old Fashioned Way", creates the following scenario: "Picture this. You've just become president of the United States, the most inexperienced man in history elected to that high office; upon your election, one-third of your constituents head for the door calling you a "baboon" or a "gorilla." You face the prospect of a long and bloody war that will claim 680,088 lives. You will have to fire six generals before you finally find one, a quasi-alcoholic, who will pursue the enemy effectively. Given one military disaster after another, you will stay up most of the night reading books on strategy; that's not the worst thing imaginable since you won't be able to sleep anyway. You will be vilified by both extremes; your favorite child will die, and, as a result, your wife will temporarily go bananas. You'll suffer from occasional bouts of melancholia, and you'll be constipated half the time. Without Deepak Chopra or prozac to help him through, how did Lincoln cope?"
And of course, comparing President George W. Bush to a chimpanzee was a favorite bloodsport of the left. So a cartoon in the N.Y. Post (shades of the Mohammed cartoons!) depicting a chimpanzee shot by the police, and a phony story put up on Huff comparing Eric Holder to a simian's genitalia, are arousing outrage on the left as alleged slanders of black politicians? You're in power, guys! Get used to it!

They were one of the best performing bands I've ever seen. Keith Emerson destroyed his piano at the end of the show at The Swing. I just love live music!

I had a huge crush on Davy Jones when I was in junior high. But my first big crush was Popeye, when I was about four years old and caught him on TV. After that, I ate a lot of spinach.

One of the amazing things about the LGF Face Book page is you get to know the people behind the nic. Until we became friends I thought you were a guy. LOL

At the moment, they haven't even got a working nuclear weapon to use as an EMP. That time is fast approaching, but Obama is taking the military option off the table.

Good night Lizards. I am off tomorrow to a mates beach house for the weekend. Still going to work in the morning. After that out until Sunday night/Monday morning.
Just to update you snarling simians over here, us folks on the other thread have come up with a term, one single word, that encompasses the current administration, our economy, their efforts to "fix" the economy, and the prospects for future progress and improvement.

So he thinks I'm kinda 'all that'.
So much so that when it is raining or snowing outside he'll look out the front door, decide 'oh, hell no', run to the back door and look out to see, to his surprise, the same thing. Then he'll sit and stare intently at me with one of those 'Well don't just stand there, fix this!' looks.
I'm betting that the Obamanation is starting to feel somewhat as do I on such occasions. "Dude, what do you expect me to do? Some things are beyond my abilities."

Former President Bill Clinton gives President Barack Obama an "A" grade for his first month in office, but tells ABC News that Obama needs to put on a more positive face when speaking to the American people about the economy and must keep pressure on Republicans who try to obstruct his plans.
Isn't this whole faux news shit getting a bit out of control?
NOBODY who walks upright is stupid enough to think they could get away with this puking pustulence of propaganda.
So my question to ms huffington is simple:
Do you frequently hire folks who cannot walk upright or are you posting this garbage to facilitate the downfall of news-blogs?
Has anybody heard this man referred to as "Mr. Obama" by the media yet? I don't believe I've heard this once. It's been "President Obama" - even with conservative media. You rarely heard President Bush called by that title - it was nearly always "Mr. Bush". My understanding is that there is nothing improper about referring to a president this way, but I know it was no accident.
Look at it this way: it has to bottom out somewhere. The market can never have a negative valuation. Can it? Besides, Obama has four years to turn this around. If he gets the market back over 1000 by 2012 the MSM will call it a triumph of political leadership.
Anyone who denies it would be, well, deniers.

It is difficult to believe that any sentient human being believes that this bail out will revive the economy. All it really does is redistribute wealth.

i agree. listen to how many times O says crisis in one short speech.
he has been the most negative voice i have ever heard speak abt. the economy.
he is purposefully trying to create a feeling of desperation and crisis.
so much for leadership that inspires and motivates. he is despicable.

The IDF's Gaza Coordination and Liaison Administration (CLA), which earlier this week told The Jerusalem Post that 12 Palestinians were killed in the shelling near a UN school in Jabalya, north of Gaza City - and not 42 as claimed by Palestinian officials at the time - has now given the Post the names of seven of those fatalities.
The seven names - two females and five males - bring the number of those named by the IDF as having been killed in the incident to nine.
...
Levi said nine Hamas operatives and three noncombatants died in the incident near the school. The seven names newly released by the CLA were: Ranin Abdullah Sameh, 12, Hadifa Jihad Kahloud, 17, Faris Mahmoud Faraj Allah, 21, Nafed Abu Abid, 22, Abed Muhammad Kadas, 25, Ayman Ahmad el-Khourd, 35, and Basem Abdel Gabin, 40.
You know, I think some of the homeless advocacy groups have a similar agenda; the one in the Seattle area basically strong-armed (by threat of camping next to an elementary school) our county executive into giving them public land. His decision was revoked because of a clause in the county charter, prohibiting transit property from being used for any other purpose (the land he gave them belonged to transit - it was adjacent to a park and ride), but they basically made themselves outlaws and he caved to them.
And where is this county executive now, you ask? He's at HUD. An Obama appointee. I think he's one of the top two or three people there.

I predict this type of behavior will become the norm soon...civil disobedience is only a fine line from anarchy and I'm sure ACORN has an eye on their ideological cousins in the EU...

There was a Republican Congressman on the other day, I think that it might have been Lou Dobbs, but I can't swear to it.
Anyway the guy made an interesting point, if we turn over the House to Republicans in 2010, 70% of the bailout could still be blocked.
Look at it this way: it has to bottom out somewhere. The market can never have a negative valuation. Can it? Besides, Obama has four years to turn this around. If he gets the market back over 1000 by 2012 the MSM will call it a triumph of political leadership.
Well, I have something I want to be true.
I want 0bama to wake up some morning, and realize he is ruining the greatest country, and that Israel is an ally in a bad neighborhood.
And I want him to get the stimulus porkage repealed, throw his anti-Israel advisors out on their behinds, and announce he will encourage responsibility and capitalism, and support Israel's right to defend itself.
With all the $$$ going to ACORN and considering the shenanigans that were got up to in the last election I'm honestly worried that 2010 could be stolen from the Repubs literally. Until and unless some controls are put into place requiring photo ID for every voter the fraud will only escalate. How do we turn around this mess if our side cannot even be elected? I'm still curious as to how many illegimate votes were counted as legitimate in the last election.

Our liberal friends say that procuring a photo ID is too much of a burden for the poor & elderly. Ok, how do they get to the polls to vote?

I'm not so sure they'll have to steal it. By then, the Republican party will be made of Rinos and creationists; the latter the butt of jokes from all the commentators. No one else will get to run.
And any third parties will be completely ignored by the MFMSM, so they get essentially no votes.
No, no, no, Charles. You got the headline all wrong. They apologized because they were all a bunch of fakes. and for good measure, Tatiana from American idol admitted she was a fake, too. :-)
Palestinian gunmen on Friday morning fired 10 mortar shells at IDF troops who were operating near the Kissufim crossing to the Gaza Strip.
There were no casualties or damage reported.
The shells were reportedly fired after IDF troops opened fire at a Palestinian gunman who approached the Gaza fence.
Earlier Thursday, four Palestinians attempted to plant a bomb along the fence but managed to flee the scene after soldiers discovered them.
A rocket was fired into southern Israel early Friday morning, landing in an open area near Netivot and causing no causalities or damage.
On Thursday evening, three rockets landed in the western Negev, hours after IDF jets bombed targets in the Gaza Strip in retaliation for previous rocket and mortar attacks.
We used to have foxes in our front yard sometimes (looking for unclaimed cats for breakfast, probably) when we lived in the country. No blue scrotum monkeys in Maryland - at least not running around the countryside. :D
No, all of the wild monkeys in Maryland are over in Congress. The saying of an infinite number of monkeys at an infinite number of typewriters, for all of infinity, could produce the works of Shakespeare is now being put to the test albeit briefly for the next four years.

They came up with the stimulus bill, didn't they? And did it in record time.
What HuffPOO did was so wrong. He owes Gibson and Holder more than an apology.
I wonder if Huffpo is going to lose their spot on the White House media ? They deserve to get booted.
I hope John Gibson legally goes after the actual fraudster who dubbed over his voice and inserted this shameful comment about the BBS, for both libel and slander.
On Johnny Dollar's site there is mention that this is the man is who created the vid. John Sanders WBAL TV.

I'm thinking it's more like a Fellini flick, but without the great cinematography.

The more I think of it, the more the idea of an animated documentary irks me.
The whole point of a documentary is that it documents. It establishes a record of the literal. A drawing is, no matter how painstakingly done, interpretive. So it's not a documentary. It is, at best, a nonfiction animation.

Yes, it would be more equitable that way - channeling Zhivago.
“I think great leaders, charismatic leaders and men who are so confident and who have achieved so much, usually have big penises,” Cumming told us. “I think there’s a correlation between the level of confidence, the level of the way a man can hold a room and the way he conducts himself in life, with his penis size — with his comfort with his penis size.”

I wonder if it's true that George Washington had a wooden one. Oh, no wait...that was teeth.
I distrust a close-mouthed man. He generally picks the wrong time to talk and says the wrong things. Talking's something you can't do judiciously, unless you keep in practice.

I received my cookbook in the mail today.
ReinDeTout, I am so very impressed with it. Thank you for spearheading this product.
The quality and uniqueness of the recipes are superb and a great tribute for LGF. It's very special indeed.
Jaunte's cover art is fantastic. The printed copies are crisp and clean. No smudging. You can read EVERY title of the books on the bookcase.
The last section, ROFLMAO, is a befitting selection of some of the wittiest and wisest quotes from many of our fellow lizards. It will continue to bring tears of joy to my eyes as I get more white haired and old.
Kudos to Sharmuta, for her LGF table "blessing", and to each and everyone that contributed their precious time, ideas, work efforts, recipes, and quotes!
Mandy, I wonder if they caught you stripping in the BP store on their security camera?
ROFLMAO !

Claims that Israel has enforced a collective case of amnesia upon its populus.
Well, the left claims that Bush only tried to pretend the war was always about Iraqi freedom after the WMD didn't pan out.
Bush is SO GOOD at pretending this, that he either went back in time and changed the name of the war to Operation Iraqi Freedom, or he brainwashed the entire world to remember that it was always called that.
A man who just died is delivered to a local mortuary wearing an expensive, expertly tailored black suit. The female blonde mortician asks the deceased's wife how she would like the body dressed. She points out that the man does look good in the black suit he is already wearing.
The widow, however, says that she always thought her husband looked his best in blue, and that she wants him in a blue suit. She gives the Blonde mortician a blank check and says, 'I don't care what it costs, but please have my husband in a blue suit for the viewing.'
The woman returns the next day for the wake. To her delight, she finds her husband dressed in a gorgeous blue suit with a subtle chalk stripe; the suit fits him perfectly ...
She says to the mortician, 'Whatever this cost, I'm very satisfied. You did an excellent job and I'm very grateful. How much did you spend?'
To her astonishment, the blonde mortician presents her with the blank check.
'There's no charge,' she says.
'No, really, I must compensate you for the cost of that exquisite blue suit!' she says.
'Honestly, ma'am,' the blonde says, 'it cost nothing. You see, a deceased gentleman of about your husband's size was brought in shortly after you left yesterday, and he was wearing an attractive blue suit. I asked his wife if she minded him going to his grave wearing a black suit instead, and she said it made no difference as long as he looked nice. . . ...
and why not? I mean, just cause i finally have a home of my own (at age 50) doesnt mean I actually had to work for it!
yes, but see in some way that you may not understand, you succeded on the backs of the poor. In the in vouge Victim ideology all success is at the expense of the have nots. IMO, Obama actually believes that.
I will not have the good name of this country's only Quaker sullied by penile references. Bless his beady little eyes and jowly face, Nixie (as Whittaker Chambers' kids used to call him) was one of my favorite leaders. How can you not love a guy who's that uncomfortable in his own skin?
I just love this comment from the HuffPo-er Knowitall:
Whether or not the video was doctored or not, I think it is still a major indictment of Fox news that the possibility of the clip being authentic was within the realm of possibility. Many people believed it because of Fox's tendency to play fast and loose with the truth. And that's a Fact!

Actually, Huffpo is clearly guilty of libel. They asserted, on their own authority, that the video was legitimate news and the actual words of Gibson.
They did so in reckless disregard of the truth. They ought to have known that it was probably false. They chose not to chec k.
It would not have gotten done without Ploome's instigation, and Ploome worked with me on the ROFLMAO section.
And I really can't say enough about FlakMusic putting all of that to pdf, and editing and re-editing . . .
It was a fun project, so much so that FlakMusic and I may begin a Vol 2 in a couple of months, IF there is any interest in it.
Kudos to Ploome and to Flakmusic!
Please consider Vol II. I am so disappointed that I did not submit any recipes. I don't know why, but I thought it was by recipe submission request only. I did not know it was open to anyone on LGF. I'll get some recipes in on the II though.
It is so wonderful Reine!

No, that just means that several successful after school programs in the Chicago area get defunded to pay off the ONE's bad debt. Probably won't even show up on his credit report.
All the toads in the yard live in the water meter box. It's a huge pile. I don't think one could step outside to catch a bug without violating something.

Question for all socially adept lizards. I saw an announcement in the paper that a girl who I used to go out with 30 years ago got married again. Our breakup was not so good. Do I send her a note of congratulations, say better luck this time, or stay out of it. I haven't spoken to her in 30 years.

Well gang, to day Ye Olde Beastie got a call no one wants to get. My mother was hospitalized last week with what they thought was pneumonia. Fluid was removed from her left lung, and a "mass" was discovered. Today the tests came back. She has cancer.
I just got back from the hospital. She said they offered her the options of starting Chemo or waiting it out. She's chosen waiting it out. The doctors say she has three months.
Even the title of the link is hazy. It wasn't a Fox News Hoax, it was a HuffPo Hoax about Fox News. It makes a huge difference to the casual reader. Why should HuffPo apologize if Fox is perpetrating a Hoax? But it should apologize for manufacturing a hoax against Fox.

Yeah, send her a note & say, "Look woman I knew no guy would ever do after me."

So, anything going on around here?
My sympathies. From someone who's been there. Dad was given six months to a year and lived another three. He didnt get really weak until the last six weeks. Call the local hospice chapter. they are a wonderful organization and dont put off going to see your mom at every opportunity no matter how hard it is. I wish I had spent every weekend with dad. Be strong, she will need that too.
...Or you can contact her and find out she had your kid, who, by the way, is getting his masters at Harvard and your half of his education is $300,000 dollars.
Write her a letter. Vent your spleen to your hearts content. Put the letter in a drawer for a week, then take it out, read it again and decide if you really want to waste a stamp on it. My bet is that you'll just say: "F**k it." and throw it away.
Anyone think this is a good idea?
If there is a desire for the reimplementation of the Fairness doctrine, by that or any other name, I say talk show host should give them a sample of what they claim they want.
I suggest that all the major players in talk radio pick a day to invite any left wing pundit or politician to be on their show.
Give them the ear of the audience that has been built up.
Let them have a uninterrupted hour,give or take ,to sell their policy economic, fairness doctrine or any other.
Then, take calls from listeners who are in disagreement,to balance the show.
I'd like to see a large scale effort to organize this for the same day on all the big talk shows.
If equal time is offered, and rejected by the left ,it is telling.
If it is accepted,their arguments can be discredited, in public,by the public.

My mother has always been frail. She was diagnosed with diabetes when I was ten years old. It took for ever for that diagnosis because she has always been rail thin. Her nickname as a teenager was Wasp Waist.
She has been at Death's Door so many times she has worn out the mat. She has always had trouble controlling her insulin/blood sugar. I have saved her life at least a dozen times. My late father would come out of a sound sleep in the middle of the night knowing something was wrong. The miracle is that she has survived to the age of 87. I've been expecting the bad news for over 40 years.
The only ex that I'd maybe care to see again is the girl that was my first girlfriend in high school. It might be interesting to see how things turned out for her. Other than that, with only one exception, I wish my exs the best, but I have no real interest in where they are or what they are doing. I'd say they probably think I'm dead for the most part, if they ever think of me at all.
I'm always curious about friends I haven't seen in years. My wife and I have known each other since we were 4 or 5. We were in the same class since 3rd grade and re-met at our 10 year high school Reunion. Still together
Cool. It is neat when things like that work out. I've got a couple of good friends I've known that long. People that pretty much know my whole story. My current girlfriend and I met over the internet. Here at LGF, actually.
Golly, you mean you can meet girls here?! Who'da thunk it? ;)
I think we should just ban monkeys and chimps. Lefties can't manage to see or hear about one without making a fake racist tape or assuming a cartoon is a picture of the President. While we are at it we could outlaw blue balls too. Just for good measure.

DMV license renewal form in Virginia has a Yes/No question for US citizenship, but the instructions indicate that answering it is optional.
So much so that when it is raining or snowing outside he'll look out the front door, decide 'oh, hell no', run to the back door and look out to see, to his surprise, the same thing. Then he'll sit and stare intently at me with one of those 'Well don't just stand there, fix this!' looks.
I'm betting that the Obamanation is starting to feel somewhat as do I on such occasions. "Dude, what do you expect me to do? Some things are beyond my abilities."
After the '89 quake, I came downstairs to find the dog sheltering under my dad's work table. I swear, the look on his face as I walked in was pure "What the hell? Are you INSANE?"
Kid's heads are filled with so many nonfacts that when they get out of school they're totally unprepared to do anything. They can't read, they can't write, they can't think. Talk about child abuse.
