Today's Meet the Press was particularly disturbing and repulsive


The segment with Hunt, Novak, Shrum and the GOP megaphone-du-jour.

Just four old white guys sittin' around shootin' the shit. I could just imagine them at the country club golf course locker room sauna with little white towels wrapped around their flabby asses.

This is what passes for debate today - four dudes who basically agree with each other pretending to represent all sides of the debate. WHAT?? THE??? FUCK?????

AH, and the piece de resistance was the opportunity for Bob "congressional medal of douchebaggery" Novak to get out his putrid lies once again and absolve himself of responsibility in the Plame affair. The lack of contrition is remarkable.

If it's Sunday, it must be Meet the White Guys in the Sauna Day.

17. Meanwhile, Jane Fonda is still taking heat for her infamous
"Hanoi Jane" episode. Novak should be in prison facing charges for his part in the outing of a covert CIA agent working on nuclear non-proliferation.

5. These fucking shows (and our Government) forgot and excluded the young
years ago. I'm 56, and I wish they'd get some twenty somethings opinions once in a while. Or maybe have our best voices (including Skinner, John Aravosis, John Amato, dozens more) who don't repeat the talking points.

THEY are scared of youth, it's that simple.

unwashed masses.

13. Why was Novak pushing the abortion angle discussing McGovern?
I know he is old and senile but could it be anymore obvious case of personal projection in political punditry?

18. Must be ESP....
Spouse and I are in our early 70's and having listened to these tired, old farts, gathered around a table and on a show, that once held men and women of integrity, spouse quickly changed channels and uttered almost verbatim your posting.

My spouse and I had the opportunity to go on-line last night and watch the group of Progressive Radio Talk-show hosts, Malloy, Schultz, Young Turk, etc., held in Phoenix. As with the audience, we were thrilled to view and listen remained raptwere excited eiThe This morning we also questioned why the Sunday talk shows, keep hauling out these old, has-beens, who care little for truth and have even less integrity......their tired, old opinions/ramblings never seem to change. They never do actual research/investigations and rely on their DC connections to keep them in public view. We envisioned what a Sunday morning show would be like if there was a competent moderator and many of these Progressive radio talk show people were invited on to discuss and debate the real issues concerning WE THE PEOPLE.

20. That show reached a new high...

Tim Russert should have been fired months ago and replaced w/ David Gregory.
