Oh, god...CNN framing today's hearing as a way for GOP to PUSH BACK
at Russ Feingold.

Wolfie gleefully started off his show with a knee-capping of John Dean, and characterizing the hearing as mere politics by Feingold.

What did we expect. But seriously, this is even lower than I thought CNN was capable of. FUCK YOU, WOLF AND ANDREA KOPPLE!

2. Feingold, those who wish to hold Bush accountable are enemies of the state
that is, the corporate state--which is what we pretty much live under.

19. Yes. I know it sounds crazy...but it's true.
At least 11-12 calls. Only 1 caller thought censure was a bad idea. No joke.

3. What idiots. What it really is, is an opportunity for Dems to take a nap.
There's nothing to push on, and if the GOP tries it, they may fall over.

:grr:

7. When did CNN lose it?
Yup. They are fighting to stay afloat.

I wonder where the networks wrong turn was? When Ted Turner left? I don't know enough about this stuff to make a call.

5. Intellectual bower birds with no spine and no brains . . .
Looking for something bright-and-shiny (or even better, bleeding-and-moaning) to grab the peepul and make them watch.

So don't (watch, I mean).

8. Luckily, more people will tune into KO to hear what he thinks about it...
...than the numbers who are listening to Wolfie McGeorgesucker.

11. Cafferty came to the rescue...
Thankfully Jack is still on the scene! Cafferty just did his afternoon bit, and framed it just the opposite..."How bad is it when you have a former Nixon staffer siding for censure?"

BWAHAHAHAHA! Good going, Jack!

12. thanks for watching, so I don't have to. tweety's bit the other day
about dems playing the tough guy card did it, once and for all

my TV is usually on while I/m here, but it's staring with it's big blank eye at me.

next step: getting rid of cable. only thing I"ll miss is Daily show/Colbert, but most of that's available online now, so SUCK it cable company

13. With a 37% approval rate, it is
amazing to me that republicans are even still in the news. Nothing like going down with a sinking ship.

15. Nah...they'll be all over the news when the "win" the mid-terms.
It's gonna happen. The "miracle comeback." The exit polls were wrong again. Count on it. And stock up on canned goods, and cash or an easily bartered service.
