I have stopped because it makes me sick. When I worked in DC in the mid-70’s to mid-80’s, there just was not this fraternizing with the press and high administration officials. It just was not done.

I have contempt for all the Sunday a.m. talking heads, because they have become complicit with the very clowns that they are supposed to keep an eye on. How can there be any semblance of objectivity when they are all out at cocktail parties and dinners parties all week long.

I saw Phil Donahue last night on C-Span talking about this very thing that is going on in the media. It was late, around 11:30 or midnight, but if it repeats, it is sure worth watching.

I just cannot stomach our presscorps who are so lazy that they rely on of all people, Drudge first thing each day. I heard that hideous Andrea Mitchell and Matthews say this. They are contemptible in by book.

OT, but this little morsel was dropped on C-Span this am, but Bill Kristol has been given a guest column at Time, Inc. First thing tomorrow, I cancel the next 2 years on that rag. Boycott the networks and the print media. They’ll get the message eventually.

If I’m not mistaken, the Huckster just became #17 lusting after the White House and I’m sure there’s still more to come. I’d love to see Nancy just fall into it, she’s more qualified than most of the other 17 .

Speaker Pelosi gets high marks for being smart, politically savvy, progressive, focused, hardworking, etc., but for somee reason there is not a big shoutout for her to run for president. Is it the gender thing? (And unlike Senator Webb, she has never been a Republican.)

What a solution to so many scary possibilities this would provide. As sitting Prez, Nancy would be nominated for ‘08 automatically, Hillary could hang out at the beach with Bill and Barrack could take some time to grow up. Webb for Veep in ‘08. Pelosi and Webb against Hucksterbee and Jeb.

My secret fantasy is an impeachment of Bush & Cheney and the presidency falls into her lap like a grape.

Bet you have lotsa company. I know you do here ;->

As far as I could tell from watching Meet the Veep this morning, there is no Libby trial going on. I guess it shouldn’t be surprising that Timmeh wouldn’t have the balls to even mention something that he is involved in up to his pudgy white ass.

Unfortunately, Face the Nation doesn’t seem to be available where I am. I would love to see Webb deal with idiots.

Oh you poor thing! We get timmeh repeated around here – ugh – guess I’ll pass twice on watching that double-immunity show today – thanks for the warning. Wish we could get repeats from FtN. Have you tried YouTube? Maybe there’d be something hiding there.

ENOUGH ALREADY! GO AWAY JOE! for at least 10 minutes the 1st week. Then try 20 min. the next week. & keep trying to stretch it out, eh?

CBS FTN might be worth watching to see Jim Webb strangle Mitch McConnell.

LOL!

Almost didn’t put the coffee down in time. I have never been able to stand McConnell! What a smarmy lying slime-merchant he is, but don’t get me started.

That would be one entertaining matchup. OhPuleeze, on YouTube someone. I’m not gonna waste my time on McC with such a teaser upstairs by LHP. Wow! You guys are not only up early today, but you’re trying to make our eyes spin.

Jus’ droppin’ down here briefly to say Hi & enjoy the Ibis. But gotta dash back to lurking upstairs. That siren LHP calls. This is just not fair on a slow Sunday mornin’, heh ;->
