6. I remember their hit "Losing my religion"
I think that was the name of it. I don't often listen to top 40 type stations (AAR is my fave choice these days) but I am really liking this guy and will support them. Maybe I will even look for a CD!

Hi babylonsister! :hi: Great to see you! :hug:

19. now THAT is good television
he dropped the f-bomb on her! He was 100% right about her acting glib. The majority no longer thinks going into Iraq is a good thing and she dismissed this because her step son is in Iraq? My brother was there but that doesn't mean I think the war was right OR that I think the soldiers should stay there.

Now she's claiming we would have lost WW2 with this mentality? What an ignorant ass!

It's lives of Iraqi children being lost for the most part and they have most to gain or lose,

35. That vile excuse for a human being....ros-lehtinen or whatever
has also fallen into the web of the Abramoff scandal...she was one of those listed in the list of Repubs and Dems in the latest Raw story coverage from a few days ago.

She is a disgusting example of parochial power run amock (typical of many of the Miami-Dade reps)
from south florida.

45. Lou Dobbs.
I'm not as fond of him as many DUers. He is a money guy. If I remember the liberal money guy whom he replaced on CNN got fired (sorry I can't remember. That person has disappeared)and Lou replaced him on the conservative side when CNN did its big sweep of newspeople for makeup and blow-dried people.

Lou wasn't liked by the Ted Turner crowd because he was toooo conservative and he left. So when CNN had a big shake up, he was invited back because he was supply side conservative. I didn't like him because I'm not into Reagan's supply side economics. I was surprised to find out that a money guy refuses to be used as a tool.

So I think old Lou has gained my respect for having some principles. I still think he's white sided bigoted and male-sided bigoted but he seems to have some principles that he tries to live by.

58. Has the Abramoff thing now been tied to Dems in any way?
Edited on Fri Mar-17-06 11:55 PM by Harvey Korman
Have I missed any new developments?

Or is this show just recycling the same lie that both parties were equally involved?

Why has no one brought up that the Dems received money from "Abramoff clients" but through LEGAL channels?

I hate that f***ing congresswoman. :argh:

in order for people to GET that all the criminals are Republicans, as usual.

I'm sure by then all talk-show hosts will spontaneously forget the party affiliations of those involved.

for "putting up with" those terrible, awful libruls in the audience who are the REASON YOU HAVE A JOB, NUMNUTZ. Also, nice job getting in that whole "I'm not a Democrat" speech.

I guess I should just be thankful he didn't work in some lameass gay joke as usual. :eyes:
