Sunday Morning Bobblehead Shows
The usual suspects making their rounds, and a lot of double dippers on the Republican side from the looks of it. Will Ron Paul talk about his exclusion from the FOX Republican Debate tonight? Especially considering that he did far better than FOX favorite Rudy Giuliani in Iowa, I'm not sure what justification the FOX people are using other than not wanting their online polls skewed again by the Paulistas.
ABC's "This Week" - Former Gov. Mike Huckabee, R-Ark.; former Gov. Mitt Romney, R-Mass.; former Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C .
CBS' "Face the Nation" - Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.
NBC's "Meet the Press" - McCain.
CNN's "Late Edition" - Huckabee; Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas; Gov. Bill Richardson, D-N.M.; former Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn.; Mahmud Ali Durrani, Pakistan's Ambassador to the U.S.
"Fox News Sunday" - Romney, Huckabee.
"Chris Matthews Show" Can Obama seal the deal in New Hampshire? Can Hillary regroup? Will McCain win New Hampshire, and can he win the nomination? With Dan Rather, Katty Kay, Andrea Mitchell and Patrick Healy.
What's catching your eye this morning?
“Chris Matthews Show“ ??? Hahahaha! He is a tool!
Hello,
Horse race stuff is just noise distracting you from important stuff.
I just read Frank Rich's oped in the NYT,"They Didn’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow"
Reading that piece gave me such a good feeling. I don't want to watch any of the shows this morning because they will kill my feel good buzz.
What, no Obama ?
Good for him
Bobbleheads does accurately describe it.

Hmm,
McCain on two major networks. It will be interesting to see how much Network news is controlled by big money and the Neocons by watching how they try to help them cope with Huckabee Hoopla. McCain is the man now that Rudy clearly has too much baggage to float.
So watch for all of the free advertising McCain gets over the next few weeks. It will be informative.
What's catching my eye this morning?
Laura has man-hands.
If you want to know what Ron Paul is saying about Fox News then check out Fridays edition of Bill Moyers Journal. I would suggest making Moyers a regular link on this site. With so much negativity it's nice sometimes to really have a feast of intellectual conversation. Positive conversation!

The norovirus that is spreading across England.
Scramble the letters in Edwards name and what do you get? REWARDS. So who is God talking to now, huh Pat Robertson, and Huck? You charlatans!!
What's catching my eye this morning? Sunshine.
I gave up on the Sunday a.m bobbleheads. I'm no evangelical but I don't think God created the seventh day to have it polluted with the likes of Chris Matthews & co.
Besides, if I want to listen to lies, I'll call my ex, he's at least creative about it.
What's catching my eye?
The lack of Democrats on any of these shows --I guess talking about issues instead of attacking your opponents like a bunch of middle-schoolers just isn't good t.v.
McCain said he would have invaded Iraq even if he had known they had no WMD.
He is not just McCain, he's insane. And if I hear him say "my friend" one more time I'm gonna smash my tv.
Good Morning POP; "He is not just McCain, he’s insane.."
John McInsane, I love it!
Look at all those shows host by and ran by people of the Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilaterals, Bilderbergs, etc, etc - Fox, ABC, CBS, NBC...
and look who appears on their shows as "guests" - more members of the Council on Foreign Relations, Trilaterals, Skull-n-Bones, Bilderbergs, etc, etc. (except for Paul and Kucinich [whom I don't see appearing today])
Quite a cozy little arrangement. Fools most of the people most of the time.
Hey Patricia, I saw you say the other day you're 3 hrs north of Miami. I'm in the Big O, land of the giant rat and happy killer whales. Are you close by?
Rudy ran his latest ad during FnS... and ad that best be titled, "Be Afraid, be very afraid. Then vote for me."
Sunday morning talk shows: Blah,blah,blah,blah,ugh........................
Thank goodness for Turner Classic Movies. No commercials, no bullshitting talking heads trying to get another loser like Bush into the WH. A good relaxing movie from the past is my Sunday morning stress remover. 10 AM. Union Station with William Holden. I will enjoy.
sunday shows fear Alan Keyes
Seven years ago today, Congress certified GWB as the winner of the election.
The second darkest day of 2001.
O'Reilly's Falafel Blimp spotted over NH.

Time to bomb the UK!
Get Rudy on the phone.

I am actually somewhat excited for this week's lineup. My biggest reason for watching is to see Mitten's whine about how badly he is being attacked. Poor guy, guess he should of thought about that before unleashing the dirt he chose to in Iowa and early on in New Hampshire.

The MSM...Straight Republican...no surprize..
roooth @ 15:
Good Morning Roooth, and everyone else. :)
If the tickets come down to McCain and Obama, it will be an interesting race indeed. The age difference alone is so telling.
roooth @ 17:
I'm on the treasure coast about an hour north of West Palm. 8)
pissed off patricia @ 28:
Hey!, I'm surrounded by ancient people and no one knows how to drive, is that close to you guys ?
McCain is pushing the "biometric ID for illegals" again on MTP.
Paul made the obvious point last night that if only illegals required the ID, then if you don't have an ID, you must be a citizen. Ergo, EVERYONE would have to be issued such an ID.
The other R'pukes don't get it.
funniest moment this sunday on the mclaughlin group
Mclaughlin - "Huckabee has a sense of humor which sets him apart from other republicans."
Mugsy @ 30:
Yes they get it. They just want the National ID system. You don't think that manufacturers such as Verichip and Digital Angel made only a couple thousand of the implants do you? No. They got millions awaiting - maybe billions.
And you don't think that those ID's wouldn't be incorporated into the national databases at the disposal of the growing list of Alphabet security agencies - let alone private agencies?
Floridiot @ 29:
Hell, that's the whole state of Florida :lol:
You must be in St. Pete.
THE EVIL CORPORATIONS AND THEIR MEDIA'S AGENDA COULD NOT BE MORE CLEAR.
pissed off patricia @ 33:
I'm up where the Mermaids swim, you're close
Republican presidential candidates will make nine appearances with the Bobbleheads today. Democrats will make two?
AAAAAh. The Treasure Coast. I'm 10 minutes north of Ft. Pierce and 10 minutes south of Sebastion and 3 minutes from my favroite Gin Mill. You can probably guess where I go the most.
Brit. Humerless. on. FaxedInNews. must. be. a. paid. shill. for. Romney's. campaign. as. he. fawned. and. defended. Romney's. appearance. in. the. debate. last. nite.. Brit. thinks. Romney. actually. WON. the. debate... sheesh, not. that. neutral. are. you, Brittleboy.. sorta. like. Hannity. shilling. for. Giuliani... no. impartiality. at. all...
The Reslugs need so much more air time to peddle their lies and bullshit.
Whats catching my eye. . . . . .
PLAYAS DE ROSARITO, Mexico - Assaults on American tourists have brought hard times to hotels and restaurants that dot Mexican beaches just south of the border from San Diego. News of harrowing assaults on American tourists has begun to overshadow that appeal in the northern part of the peninsula, home to drug gangs and the seedy border city of Tijuana. In the city's Puerto Nuevo tourist enclave, which offers $20 lobster dinners and $1 margaritas, restaurant managers said sales were down as much as 80 percent from last year. One Saturday afternoon in October, masked bandits wielding pistols walked the streets and kidnapped two men — an American and a Spanish citizen . . . . . .
Even with ReTHUGs on almost all the media, one of the main topics will be "Hillary, Hillary, Hillary, Hillary....." Even when she isn't on the media, she is in the spotlight with her "it's my turn" mentality. Of course they will have to dissect how Obama will lose to her, and not mention that other guy that is running...oh what's his name? I know it starts with an E......
2008 may be the first election where internet news outweighs television. At least we can hope so. With the internet at this time
there are no bosses (yet) that keep cream from rising to the top. So on the Democratic side at least where there is a chance to work it
build a constituency with work and talent there will be a draw that doesn't exist on the other side of both of those divides.
We can name twenty stars, some of whom are beginning to carry the media field over O"liely, Hanjob, Rush Slimeball and the rest.
William 'The Bloody' Kristol is a guest on the Fox show(as usual), not seen Dan Rather yet. Despite that and the whole panel stacked with Fox people, I'm amazed that they are keeping it basically civil in the conversation and really no bashing of the Dem. candidates. They're still not mentioning Ron Paul when they talk about the Repuglicans, focusing on the others. But they picked McCain as Repuglican and left no time for their choice .
Flipped over to 'Face the Nation' for some fresher air, and I liked the 'Final Word' - He spoke about the fact that 'Iowa showed that a presidential race can't be bought now', and that 'while the winners talk about how important Iowa is, the losers pass off on Iowa by saying it's not important'.
And I'm still surprised that, despite all the hype of the 'Christmas resolution,' that H.R. 888 isn't making news: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c110:H.RES.888:
(and a sampling of the 'Whereas' statements that a few websites like http://www.talk2action.org/story/2008/1/5/121740/6989 are easily debunking)
"Whereas political scientists have documented that the most frequently-cited source in the political period known as The Founding Era was the Bible;
Whereas the first act of America's first Congress in 1774 was to ask a minister to open with prayer and to lead Congress in the reading of 4 chapters of the Bible;
Whereas throughout the American Founding, Congress frequently appropriated money for missionaries and for religious instruction, a practice that Congress repeated for decades after the passage of the Constitution and the First Amendment;
Whereas in 1776, Congress approved the Declaration of Independence with its 4 direct religious acknowledgments referring to God as the Creator (`All people are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness'), the Lawgiver (`the laws of nature and nature's God'), the Judge (`appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world'), and the Protector (`with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence');
Whereas upon approving the Declaration of Independence, John Adams declared that the Fourth of July `ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty'; " [Taken out of context from his full letter]
And two of the closing remarks - "(2) recognizes that the religious foundations of faith on which America was built are critical underpinnings of our Nation's most valuable institutions and form the inseparable foundation for America's representative processes, legal systems, and societal structures;"
"(3) rejects, in the strongest possible terms, any effort to remove, obscure, or purposely omit such history from our Nation's public buildings and educational resources;"
George S. called Romney on his ad saying McCain supports amnesty when he insisted his ad does not last night. Romney's response after GS showed him the ad:
"I hadn't seen that one."
Now, GS didn't show the entire ad, but don't they always end: "I'm xxx, and I approved this message."?
Why would the rethugs ever need toi buy air time. They totally control talking points. Week after Week After Week after year after year.....
No mention of John Edwards anywhere on CNN or MSNBC. He was not ABC with George Stephanopolous and did Outstanding. The MSM is so afraid of him its not funny. They are totally excluding him and Pushing Obama and McCain. Remember Obams wants to be the agent of change, although he has no real solid plan to do it. He's your feel good candidate. He doesn't make you think too much about the reality of how he plans to change the real mess we are in. He plans to build a broad based coolition of Republicans to tackle the big problems facing our country. He wants to appease the bigh corporations and try to negotiate with them after they have ruined our country.Unfortunately, Barach does not understand that at this point its too late to negotiate with the big Corporations. That time is long over. Edwards want to take on the job of getting in there and taking them on. The Media is pushing Barachand Hillary down our throats. Both candidates have taken huge contributions from big corporations. They also know both of them won't stand a chance in a general election against John McCain. Wake up folks in New Hampshire.
Jeri @ 42:
choice for the Democratic winner in NH, sorry left that out.
The G.D. LIBERAL media just won't stop pushing their socialist agenda - crowding out true American Values by giving a platform to the likes of Edwards and Richardson who are out to destroy our freedom.
because of the media blackout of Edwards, I have stopped watching CNN, FOX, MSNBC(except for Olbermann) CBS, NBC, and ABC. I have let them all know it and send reminders weekly to them as well as stating I have also boycotted their sponsors. I purchase as much as I can from local and small American companies. This will continue even after the elections. What they have been doing to Edwards and other grassroots candidates is un-American and this is my protest. It feels good and I am glad to help the businesses that need it. If we ALL did this things would change. I wonder what else the corporate media is holding back, say, the cure for cancer, hydrogen technology that can replace fossil fuels, vital news about global warming? This election cycle really has driven home to me how very controlled our information is, and it is a threat to our country and the entire world.
Jen,
There you go it's official. Ol' Bomb, bomb, bomb McCain is the boy to pull their smoking chestnuts out of the fire of public reaction to Neocon lies and ignorance. I sampled the Repuglican debate last night since I couldn't stand more than ten minutes at a time. At one point McCain was laughing openly at Ron Paul. Derisive laughter. I don't see any evidence that JC's policies (the same as bush's) have been funny at all. Nobody laughing there.
Hey Hillary fans, why was she too afraid to appear with Russert on MTP?
She certainly found the time to yell about big bad Barack today.
The hair dye is running out of her weave it seems.
So glad I decided to sleep in.
