baby jesus also wonders where in the world is the liberal Matt Lauer?

OT Please, anyone just tape Mike Barnacle (sp) sitting in for Hardball? He just talked about a poll and they showed the graphic. What he was saying was either BACKWARD or WRONG compared to what the graphic was showing!

Do they have viewer envy of Fox news? Either that or they have no idea of his past. He's the last guy to talk to if you want to know about reality. Jesus, was cheney too busy to come on their show so they got a cheney/war/killing cheerleader? No way I'll watch the clip, that guys face and voice gives me the creeps.

...and O'Reilly says NBC is the "far left" news network...

baby jesus is also very happy it's Friday so Bill Maher will be back
on the air waves and that advertisement is gone.

we all have to learn that no matter how upset we get, no matter how many writings we have on the blogs, no matter how high we allow our blood pressure to rise, the only element that matters in this equation is money. if we threaten to boycott the sponsors of lauer's program until he allows a meadows or an al franken or randi rhodes or a maher or a big eddy, then we will not be buying their products or watching their program. that is in effect the ONLY way that we can make a difference. those who run right wing conservative programs with few exceptions do not believe in the spiel they are offering. they only believe in the almighty dollar, what will make them money or in this case what will keep them from losing money. so we can cry and complain, but the only thing that will make a difference is to write to the sponsors and let them know you will not be buying their products until there are changes. you have the power.

Vick has been suspended by the NFL
I'll drink to that.
Sorry to go off topic but that's such good news and we could all use good news as the weekend approaches.

Hmm you have to wonder why the networks keep putting someone on their shows who is a proven liar and who markets deception time and time again. Think about it..corporations run these networks and all of them have an agenda. How can someone so clueless have any credibility on anything? Why would they ask a moron how to solve a puzzle? It doesn't make sense unless they want their viewers to believe this asshole.

A liberal?!

Peeh... it's the liberals' fault in the first place for the failures in Iraq... let Kristol do the talking, he can help amureekah turn the corner on this war.

ts...ts..ts..

I don't mind the networks bringing on these wingnuts....as long as they're challenged when they say something stupid or incorrect. Too often, they get a free pass and are allowed to spout their nonsense without a question.

Is it me or are Kristol and Lieberman looking like the exact same person these days?

baby jesus @ 22:

baby jesus can work miracles with adult beverages

pray to the imaginary friend of your choice and I will answer

i think baby jesus should stay away from these fair skinned wankers . . . . no telling what they do in the woods

Thanks bj (baby Jesus) I'll keep that in mind. Can you make all the right wing wankers lose their voice until this damned war can end? I'll trade the adult beverages for that. Please start with Kristol. No injuries, just a bad case of laryngitis.

So we're siding with the Sunnis while Government sides with the Shiites. Double plus progress, Bill!

Another fine example of GE "Bringing things to light". Yeah, right. They do excel at taking their customers to the cleaners, in this case information consumers. Too bad GE/NBC can't take a lesson from Olberman's ratings, which are out the roof. Here's a hint GE/NBC guys: most people are hungry for the truth, not propaganda, not lies, not manipulation. Truth tellers are rewarded with viewership.

Oh..that's bloody's proof..."oh there's no question..." Great proof bill. What a sack of disgraceful zion fascist smirk.

I know Bush's obsession with Iraq, what is his?

I remember Matt Laur and Katie Couric in Qatar, with this crappy show, right before Operation Iraqi Liberation (OIL) got started. Instead of being serious journalists, and asking questions about why a war was about to start that had nothing to do with 9/11, they were acting like it was spring break and trying to figure out how Qatar is pronounced. Oh my, my, it was supposed do be such a lovely little war....NOT! Pathetic.

Rendition Mission @ 37:

"Surge Protector"

That's marvelous. Someone has to take that phrase and run with it.

Lieberman: Surge Protector. McCain: Surge Protector.

me likey "surge protector".....dees one is goot

baby jesus @ 30:

baby jesus erred in allowing Kristol senior to procreate,
however Jr. Kristol is all part of the plan to test the silly little humans

Test what, exactly? Our patience? Our ability to spot a smarmy liar?

i couldn't watch the clip either, i wonder if lauer asked him how he was holding up with all this terrible war stuff going on.

Didn't know the Today Show went wingnut.

Dirtbags.

Is there a more funding request soon or something?

lol.

Fortunate son, chickenhawk , neocon , Zionist first pussy.

Simply put, this is why Matt will be banished to morning coffee shows his entire career and KO will be appearing on prime time on the major network. Little Matt just can't resist that cute little black cocktail dress Kristol, I mean Coulter wears all the time

Lauer is a wingnut.

baby jesus @ 3:

baby jesus also wonders where in the world is the liberal Matt Lauer?

He's probably wherever Carmen Sandiego is. Lauer has been showing his ReThug leanings to the point I watch Good Morning, America instead.

One more time for the folks in the cheap seats:
The Today Show is a blight on news, on intelligence, on taste; everything about this show sucks!

Blech!

Who would waste their time watching this kind of daytime crap? They've got a show to fill up every day of the week and they want to attract big sponsors (corporations). It's not about news. They should stick with cooking segments. Matt Lauer has a huge ego; irksomely so. He's no journalist.

Hey John Warner:
I hate to be the one to tell you but the most cowardly of all neocon chickenhawks is calling you a pussy!
So Pops, do you have the stones to do anything about it or will you continue to allow Kristol to slap you around in public?

Bonkers @55

"And I’m sure his fear would be so, ahem, explosive, that one could track that trail from orbit!

Krystol…..eesh, what scary clown"

True.

How did you do that emoticon thing?

:lol:

NO. NO. NO.

No way I´ll watch this video. The bloke´s face, his unbearable smirk and his voice give me the creeps. This is material for masochists and I´m definitely none.

Petraeus: Surgin' General

DING DING DING!!! - Stop calling folks, we have a winner!!!!

Hell, who else would war profiteer GE have on their propaganda network? A progressive anti-war pundit? Shucks.

Surprise, surprise.

Bill: Ira! Get your ass in here this minute! Didn't I tell you to clean up your room? It looks like a bomb went off in here!

Ira: Because you put twenty holes in the wall when you tossed me around the room and you broke my desk into fifty pieces and tossed and shredded my stuffed animals.

Bill: Are you back talking me? I gave you a direct order you snivelling little twit! Clean up this mess!

Ira: But after the tenth time I hit the wall, daddy, my arm snapped like a twig. Mommy and I just got back from the hospital.

Bill: That's no excuse for not having your goddamned room cleaned up you little bastard!

(Snap! Snap! The other arm and a leg broken.)

Bill: Now get up off the ground and clean up this mess! No excuses you lazy no good little shit!

And more Americans die.
Hey! Bill! Americans are dead.
Bill, can you see the wall. A wall next to Vietnam wall.
In DC.
What a cool Neocon legacy.
Dead Heroes.
His Neocon fantasy kills people.
Why does the MSM treat him with respect?
I don't get it. He is wrong yet they treat him with some respect!
WHY?
What a dickless wonder.
Worst President ever. EVER.
Thank God for the internet and C&L.
I'm rambling now...Yet I know that if we keep the pressure on we can make a difference.
Thank you, and don't let the bastards get you down.
JB...USAF(RET)

You know Kristol, that if we just stay long enough to be able to kill all Iraqi's we can immigate Americans there and have an alli in the mid east for sure. Bush can appoint himself Tsar of Iraq before he leaves office as a recess appointment.

If Kristol doesn't consider that Iraqi's lingering Al-Q, insurgents etc will not adjust to a surge he is incredibly undeserving of his stature in the media with republicans.

One adjustment has been to see more spectacularly larger explosive detonations at civilians and "coalition troops", (ha-ha).

Before anything else with Kristol. Is the press so whimpy that it cannot hound Bush Adm people for their officail "what the hell you doing" until they answer? Kristol is not part of the Adm nor has he been elected to any public position. He is not the person the press should go to on this stuff. So were fed Kristols imagination theater that he is a KEY player in the Bush Adm ?

God I hate William Kristol. I really hope that someday he ends up in Abu Ghraib prison experiencing the things he endorses (and then some).

I think it's fantastic that they keep bringing on these bozos like Kristol & Coulter. The viewers get to see what enormous jack asses these people are, and how they are ALWAYS wrong, and how they don't care at all about it, they just spew the same BS over and over and over. The MSM can't be acused of being liberal if they keep inviting Kristol & Coulter on to their shows, right? They're doing us a favor by having these morons on TV. I say keep it up.

I was impressed with Matt Lauer's well acted part, as he substitutes real contentiousness for loudness, as if loudness itself is an independent act.

Lauer fed Kristol softballs, and Kristol kept hitting them out of the park with
his allegiance to administration talking points.

What is this possible victory going to look like?

Ninety-two percent of Iraqi children are suffering from PTSD. They are dying from starvation, penury, exposure, malignant neglect, accident, suicide, diseases associated with unsanitary conditions, lack of potable water, malnutrition, terrorism, crime, low birth weight, lack of health care and medicines, high infant mortality, orphaned children and collateral death so that there will not be little terrorists waiting to take their elders' places.

Was this war and occupation the only means the U.S. had to bolster the economy, and protect the petro-dollar? Unfortunately, economics professors sell capitalism rather than examine some of the unproven elements, weaknesses, and deceptions to maintain an illusion that is a double-edged sword casting twenty to twenty-five percent into poverty, while increasing the accumulation of capital for the top five-percent at the expense of everyone else, rather than develop less delusional models that more accurately reflect economic behavior.

I heard General Billy Kristol once led a battalion of G.I Joe dolls to victory over an insurgent neighbor's sand castle.

Who better to counsel Our Great Decider in these troubling times?

Send Kristol over.

Malibu Barbie - she led a counter-attack and drove the chickenhawks back to Geekville.

About a year ago, I decided I was fed up with this kind of thing on the Today Show and vowed not to watch it any more. And I haven't.

Why does anyone listen to this horrible person. Everything he has ever said with that smarmy smile has been proven to be wrong. This is the guy who said it was ridiculous to think that Sunni and Shia could not get along. He has been to so many dog and pony shows in Irag he should get a manure award.

Bill Kristol you've been absolutely positively wrong about everything for the past ten years. Not one God damn thing have you got fucking correct.

Zero, nada, zip...

Now you want us to fight through spring in Iraq? At what cost... another 1,500 dead kids?

As I wrote to you in an e-mail to the Standard four year ago calling you an 'asshole' well, YOU'RE STILL AN ASSHOLE!

OT Please, anyone just tape Mike Barnacle (sp) sitting in for Hardball? He just talked about a poll and they showed the graphic. What he was saying was either BACKWARD or WRONG compared to what the graphic was showing!

=====================
ol mike wanders waay off the subject sometimes. i've wondered if he isn't having some kind of health problem but i seem to be the only one who notices.
at least he is wrong because some of his marbles wandered off but ppl like kristol, kovak and the like--just evil, and wrong.

p.s. did you know that kristol is like 5'4" or something?

There it was, military families give us Neocons your sons and daughters until Spring.

Biggus Diggus @ 20:

Kristol has books behind him. He must be smart!

Somebody like Colbert should do a sketch with packets of cereal behind them on a bookshelf, have them side on so they look like books... ;) would be a giggle.

Whenever you see a TV commercial for lawyers, they alway have legal encyclopedias behind them.

What's funny is such encyclopedias, like American Jurisprudence, are only secondary or tertiary sources, not primary.

Great points, folks!

No. 83, what role does Red Cross play in iraq? What does Maliki has to say about the surrounding destruction?

I agree that Kristol is not an advisor of the president and he has no right to enforce his ideologies to create a war in iraq. Of course, he uses people like Wolfowitz, Leiberman, etc.

If you want to know the truth from a non-political (not right, not left) perspective, read "Babylon is Falling! Is Falling! by James Arthur. Just out, it describes and offers a solution for ending the likes of Rush, Sean, Michael, Chrissy and Chrystal. It describes the ongoing collapse of our world's socio-economic-governmental-religious systems. Also points out that all of our presidential wannabies are more of the same-o same-o, but Bush is the last president of these United States. He gets to turn out the lights...'cause the party's over. He's going to launch a global nuclear war that just like Iraq, nobody wins.
