C-Span this morn-anyone else notice?
that the woman moderating the calls would allow the republicans(those who agree w/pres.Bush) to rail on an on as long as they wanted.She would be rifling thru the papers pretending to be distracted,letting the hard headed name calling generally ignorant Bush supporters go in any direction unchecked.When a DEMOCRAT would stray off topic she would be right there chastising them and cutting them off for not following HER rules.I have grown a very keen awareness to the TV pundits bias since oh I'd say the Clinton administration.

1. Oh yeah. Connie's a winger, as are most of the C-SPAN hosts.
Some just hide it better than others.

Peter looks like he's going to explode when Dems criticize Chimpy.

Pedro gets really flustered at Dem callers.

Susan seems to be the fairest. Also Rob.

And of course, we always know what to expect on Freeper Friday with Brian Lamb.

Just the way the calls are divided: For Pres. Bush*, For Democrats, others.
Fair and balanced?

3. Welcome To The Brave New World
Welcome To DU...just read around, lots of us have noticef this for a long time.

For some of us, hearing these looneys is a good thing as you need to know your enemy to overcome them...and they won't bother to listen to you.

At least those of us with a realistic view can call in...that's a lot better than the other "punditry" shows that's agendas are also reguarly discussed in the Media & General Discussion forums.

Have fun!

Cheers

4. During the second segment of calls on Iraqi prisoner torture, a very
good Democrat was allowed to express what all of us think about Iraq, Saddam, the war, and our government. I was amazed she was not interrupted.

She covered most of the points very clearly. And the anchor actually allowed her to say most of what she wanted.
Where were the democrats when Saddam was killing Iranians with mustard gas? We were asking why the US goverment (republican) was supporting a killer and giving him chemical weapons.
And democrats do want to fight evil: our own government which has run amock.
And much more.
Finally a good call!

6. I Heard...Also Joe Wilson's Picture Album
I don't think Dick Shelby and Arlen Specter could be too happy being seen holding hands with Saddam...LOL. Wilson did qualify that Shelby was an asshole Democrat at the time...now he's a total asshole.

Connie...I think that's her name...and there's Susan...aren't as bad as the men...obviously Brian Lamb clones who not only will cut off a Democrat in mid thought, they let the worst nutcases (the daily anti-semite) go on and on. We laugh here whenever there's another woman with a southern accent, we bet on how many second it'll be until she's blaming everything on Clinton. LOL

Honestly, how much can this regime and the media pretend that no one isn't noticing all the criminality and moral bankruptcy going on here. These fools have always overplayed it, and here's hoping once we open the Pandorra's box to all this cabal has done, we'll expose ALL who have destroyed this great country.

7. Well you can't offend your sponsors, can you?
They tend to be corporations that are sympathetic or beholden to the Chimp .
Be grateful that Democrats are allowed on the air at all... but i don't have cable and watch almost no TV.

Glad I did not see it.
