OnEdit: BookNotes -> Booknotes

i believe c-span will also repeat this at 11 pm est ...

i've heard several complete chapters read on a local radio station ... great book !!!

considering im at work.

it's so tacky kicking your own post ...

don't you think?

please let me know whether you agree in about a half hour ...

that should pop this puppy back up at a good time ...

:kick:

I must stand up for all those who aren't able to kick!

(kick)

Didn't think he would be that good.

Sometimes booknotes comes on CSPAN II.

link is the schedule

talking 9/11 and Saudi Arabia and the fact that Bush won't reveal information

and if Clinton was tied to the McVeigh family, the other side would have been outraged

Brian Lamb is very tight...terse, short questions

c-span just showed a close up quote of the book saying "drugs will fuck you up"

Brian read it as drugs will f you up. Brian calls it "street language".

Brian: what are you trying to do here?
Moore: I'm agreeing with Nancy Reagan (laughter)

I hope more do that.

Moore says he will donate the money he got from the bush taxcut to candidates running against him.

:bounce:

where's that flame icon? :shrug:

"... from these people (Republicans)"

"the stuff she believes in" is so over the top

Moore trying to be diplomatic

I've read that some right-wingers find her(?) attractive.

I've never seen Lamb act like this before. It was subtle. But still, he wasn't his usual self. He seemed really out of his element. Hard to describe since he's always buttoned down. I thought he looked like a guy with an overly tight sphincter, if you know what I mean.

Ooh! Prime Minister's Q&A is on now. Hear! Hear! I love this and wish our presidents had to go thru this kind of thing.

He had this shocked look like you might if you invited a rich uncle to Thanksgiving dinner and he got up on the table to crap on the turkey. I didn't see him laugh once, just a tight little thin-lipped frown the whole time.

I forgot to mention that. That speaks to the comment Babzilla just posted. I wonder if it was prearranged? Lamb is very often shown during his interviews as fas back as I can remember. Maybe he didn't want his reactions to be seen.

And he kept hammering about the money Moore has earned. For a right winger, that's an odd reaction to someone's success. As if Moore has to explain himself. I'm sure Moore went away scratching his head. And what about that question about if Moore actually wrote the book himself because of his generous thanks to his wife and friends for their help? I mean puh-leez. Lamb got most animated when he read Moore's thank-you sentence. At that moment Lamb reminded me more of Tim Russert.

I've gone on long enough. But it was such a weird interview. Moore had to go on and on winging it to make it go anywhere.

This must so piss off the right. When lefties beat them at their own game by being successful they are hell of annoyed.

In their eyes, lefties are unwashed and unemployed. It must frustrate them no end when they are proved wrong.

MzPip
:dem:

he even mentioned it in the interview. He knows he's going to catch hell from all the rw loonies for having Moore on the show.

He said that people will want to "shoot" him (Lamb) for having him (Moore) on. Good grief.

(Brian) was much different than usual. But Michael was great in my opinion. I always though he was okay but I was never a big fan of his, but I've been liking him more and more lately (the more I hear him speak). I've never read his books, but now I really want to get "Dude, Where's my Country".

Moore was brilliant here.

When Brian asked Michael about his street language, I'm thinking Brian you are such a winger. Brian even stated that Michael didn't identify with any religion, however Michael stated in his book that he was catholic. Brian did you read the whole book?
